Character Selection Screen.

[Bruttal]

So I Had a thought today while i was thinking about the spinning TR video Could we have a character select screen that rotates around our character kinda like in the video?. instead of just standing in one place?.

[Bags]

You could rotate them in PS1, and they walked.

I think it should show all the classes as a group (preferably in a cool, tactical-looking pose) with all the player's customizations. Aside from looking cool, this is an incentive for completionist-type players to grind progress and buy stuff off the item shop.

And this goes double for the character creation screen. It should show all the classes in one place, and heavily customized. Just like some MMOs show you classes in high-tier gear during creation, so that you know what you're supposed to end up in and strive for.

I think Global Agenda's class selection screen looked kinda like this and it looked hella good.

Then they should create a PS2 Stormwind with a bank, so that the most vain of players can leave their characters AFK for hours on end, showing off their shiniest, most expensive MAX pauldrons, with Auraxium e-peens orbiting around them... :P

There could be established, rentable AFKing positions set up for them, surrounded by velvet rope, with signs that herald their oh so awesome exploits of war.

No flash photographs!

And bigger pecplates, shoulder pads, and bicep bulges for the male avatars, and tiny waists, exaggerated hips and thighs, and designer bikini toops for females, for the ultra-high-priced upgrades.

OMG! Look who is coming towards us! It's MajorPectoralis and WaspWaist! They must have the most L337 weapons and gear!

Fighting against someone wearing "I have no taste, and I'm rich" Russian Mafia outfits would be fascinating. Triple-thick ermine coats, pants made of Endangered Species hide, and 6" heels with little aquariums with fish swimming in them in the elevator soles and heels. Frikkin' Lamborghini LM002 battle buggies, boats with 8L Lamborghini Marine V12's, Ducati motorcycles, turbine-powered motorcycles, when will it end?

Kill pane: Traak kills whoever with Royal Ride golf cart.

Bad taste. It only matters if you suck.

What will be the point of creating more than one character?

Since they said you can only train on 1 character at a time, none... unless you have multiple free accounts. Then you can have a toon with increased skills in Heavy infantry stuff, and a toon with increased skills in Cloaker stuff to switch between before your "main" toon can train for both.

Hopefully this is an indication that there will be at least a small box price. Why wouldn't you be able to train multiple characters on one account if you can just get multiple accounts for free and train several characters at a time that way?

We should either be able to train multiple characters at a time or, preferably, the game should cost like $5 or $10 or $20 per account, with F2P being only after you purchase it.
