If you could make a dlc

[Charm]

(edit: Okay, this is more like a major major expansion than a DLC... But I still want it. x_X)

"Echoes of the Great Tarnalin Forest"

Characters:
--Sensoths as playable race.
--New body types (Slim / Heavy / Muscular) and a height scale.
--New customization options. (Hair, Face, Markings, etc.)
----I really want a full head of dreadlocks for irathients. There is the style with dreads but the sides are shaved off, and it doesn't work for me so much.
----Piercings, jewelry, etc. would be nice.

Combat:
--Dual Wielding pistols, charge blades and other 1-handed weapons.
--New melee weapons. (Two Handed) Swords and Polearms, both metal and "charge" types. There would be different design themes for the weapons based on each playable culture... Irathient polearms would be more tribal (feathers, carvings in wood, paint), castithan ones would probably be a light silver with light blue patterns.

Crafting:

--Gathering Skills--
Foraging - Collect plants and other biological resources.
Scavenging - Collect metals, generators and other forms of technology.

--Production Skills--
(Requires Foraging)
Scientist - Creates stims, biological grenades, infector mods, biomagnetic gun mods.
Provisioner - Creates food that you can set up for yourself and others. Eating will give long lasting buffs to different stats such as run speed, health regen, etc.

(Requires Scavenging)
Weaponsmith - Creates most weapons and most mods.
Mechanic - Upgrade, tweak and customize vehicles (for performance, etc.), also deploys a (non-overpowered) turret gun for a limited time after leaving your vehicle.


World:
--New storyline. Subjugated sensoths rise up against their cruel castithan masters with the help of concerned irathients AND you. (This would be an isolated conflict, not something that's affecting the whole world. Something like a rogue faction of castithans.) Maybe Cass Ducar returns for the story.
--New area: Terraformed Forest in which the new storyline takes place, not sure where on the map it would be... We'd probably have to "quick travel" there. There would be one or more rather large castithan settlements, and the irathient NPCs would be hiding out in the woods, maybe in caves.
--In addition to the rogue castithans, the woods are filled with votan beasts, many of which have been mutated in ways similar to the hellbugs. There could be a new type of invasion, with these alien / mutant beasts just pouring out of the woods.

Loving all of this and the inner me says trion take note the people have spoken. Lol that being said i still want the indogenes, oh and a helly yeah to the character customization ideas, i'd like add to your idea a graphics update (the graphics look a tad bit dated at times, but i love the game all the same.

Short and sweet: Circle of Death/Last Man Standing...

Basic arena:
Volge Troopers, DM Enforcers, 99er Mattlocks, basic Raiders... 4 Players. Everyone fights til death (Players can revive + use Self-Revive).

Unsuccessful Arena:
~If all players die BEFORE all enemies are killed, the Circle of Death has been Failed. All 4 players lose an amount of Scrip and Salvage, and must restart from the beginning of the Circle of death.

Successful Arena:
~When all enemies are killed, players receive their point-based (like Sieges) rewards.

~Once rewards have been handed out, if 2 or more players are still alive, those players have 20 seconds to prepare for a Last Man Standing PvP round for a substantial Scrip/Salvage bonus.

~Players are ranked via scores on a Siege-similar system (including Kills, Assists, Healing, Revives). Lowest player gets no Reward, 3rd gets a T2 lockbox, 2nd gets a T3 lockbox, 1st gets a T4 lockbox.

~Circles increase in difficulty to the point that Tankers, Hulkers, Blacklungs, Bulwarks, and Viscera are battling it out with 4 players. Only in this final arena, 4th place receives nothing, 3rd gets a T3, 2nd gets a T4, and 1st gets the brand new Tier-5 Lockbox.

I leave your imagination to what 5 items a T5 Lockbox could include.

Okay friend not to be a downer but what's the point in it being four players if the fourth player gets nothing?
That basically means if you're the four player and did your best, you busted your *** for nothing or just so the top three can get a prize and you're left out just because you were off by a few points. I love the idea and i understand you did that to build a sense of compeditiveness but leave the last player out is kinda cold. Other than that i love your dlc idea! ^_^

Glad more people like my ideas. xP

Ah, and I forgot to mention that maybe Provisioner could craft some outfits that are more cloth-based, and maybe mechanic or weaponsmith could craft some outfits that are more metal-based.

*Stabs the thread with a syringe full of whatever (SPOILER?) Mr. Birch used on Ben Daris.*

Still love a lot of the ideas in here, my own included of course. xP Even if they're not 100% mine, I know a lot of these things have been asked for already.

edit: And after beating the Thorn Liro Arenas, I'd have to say the whole Castithan's as the bad guys in my suggested DLC doesn't sound so far off. In fact, I'd say it would be a perfect opportunity for Thorn Liro "agents" or something to strike at the corrupt Liros.
