Hi there

The heraldry system is pretty cool, really, I was afraid we could get less freedom !

But, because there's a but, we could get a little more !

- there is a too big gap between, the big and medium symbols size

- nice to change the position, but why not the rotation, x/y symetry ?

- more organic symbols ? flowers, tree leaves, insects (i'm thinking about the Canadians, the French (hehe), the early middle ages tribes)?

- there are a lot of eastern heraldry, scandinavian... (gottlung and slavard then) but, nothing really relevant for the khoor (arab/mongol)

- this one is more a question waiting for an answer from devs do you plan more symbols in the cash shop ? (as far as we know, the cash shop is only cosmetic, what is more cosmetic than the heraldry ? )

I also really like what I am seeing. Most of the folks in my guild would like to see surcoats (sleeveless) added as a way to visually distinguish officers from infantry. Though in truth (and I am certainly no expert on this) the tabards in game appear closer to surcoats. Regardless I like what you are doing!

For that matter (and since I feel greedy this morning), could we have crests added for helms sometime in the future?

On a side note, I am sure some folks are going to request cloaks. For the record, I am against cloaks of any kind.

I'm pretty sure they won't add cloaks x) it asks too much work for the animations


remember, once I asked a thing about the cloth quality in YO, and they answered for the MMO, we'll have a lot of more things... the, maybe a lot of new tabards and with higher cosmetic quality

What about to let somehow upload our own emblem and then use it in the heraldy ?

I have no idea how it should be done but imagine it. All guild have their emblems made and the heraldy did not allow them to use it. Just to adjust it in not very nice way.
(The heraldy looks great, Iam not trying to hate it)

I like the idea of we can upload our own emblem into the game, but from my past experience that must be in way moderated, player moderated like posting a link to report the emblem as inappropriate and having someone to accept the image before posting.

I'm not only speaking about nudity and gore stuff that will appear in the heraldy and most of the time i would not care if it's not too explicit, i am more concern with emblems that will look like real world extremist groups.

In LIF:YO the GM can be anyone in the world and he actually can be a little careless about the moderation and in the end we could end up with a server full of inappropriate content as heraldy symbols, that would be a little unfortunate.

[Kazar]

I totally agree with you. It can be as good as bad.

If we can come up with some moderate system, how to control the pictures which are uploading, it could be nice way for players to customize their apperance.

I would like to see more colors and darker colors. Also when you have emblem centered the upper part of the emblem is badly positioned, should be lowered down little bit so you could have the whole emblem on one layer and not between two layers if you know i mean. I can post screenshot later with better explanation.

darker colours.... hmmm

in fact, here, the colours are great, really. the black pigment didn't exist... the best black they got was a kind of very very dark brown, that went brown with days... like the black we've got here

there was some true black clothes, but it was from black sheep's whool


there are some medieval books with recipes and samples of the colours... that's why we know how it was



for the uploading heraldry... why not, some games does it simply but... because there's a big big but, they'll have to police everything coming and obviously, we cannot prevent people trying to bring some svastika (yes yes yes during the middle ages it wasn't bad yes yes i know i know...and there is one, and almost 2 in the heraldry system))or some totally dumb shit like company logos, band logos...

Some colors like yellow for example has so low saturation for no reason and the design kinda looks like worn for years! What is the reason for that?

Why you cant have designs like this?



Medieval times were not like all muddy-shitty things everywhere, they were capable of awesome things actually. BTW why ranting about black color in game which has absolutely non-historic armor designs and lacks some other, historical ones?

did I say that ?


what you are saying, I already asked the devs and answered something like "wait for the MMO, more stuff is coming"
