<div class="IPBDescription">What did you think? i guess your love it,</div>Hello there, whats about the following idea?

Every player has a special option in his menu, he can choose for Marine, Skulk, gorge, Fade, Onos some skin and addons.
Examples how it can be:

Marines:
1. Female / Male
2. Skins: Black, white, chinese/asian, latino
3. special Skin like scars and stuff
4. On every Marine is a nameplate (glowing RED-LEDs), his nickname is there, NOT over his head or HUD text anymore!
5. Choose a Taunt animation?


Skulk/Gorge/Fade/Onos:
1. Skins: a bunch of textures to choose from, not colors like extreme purple, just the sample of the skin (sorry hard for me to explain im not english)
2. Special "items" like how many bones on the model and stuff, not to crazy.
3. Choose a Taunt animation?

    Love idea #4, immersive stuff like that just adds so much value to your everyday experience.
    having it on their backs and their fronts would totally set this apart from normal multiplayer shooters.

    I'd like to be able to recognise the group members by a quick glance, but otherwise it's all irrelevant for me.

    I had similar ideas, but they aren't high on the demand list so eh... #4 is actually nice, and I say is a keeper >.> Spray painted Name on rine's armor would look cool, fitting the whole name on it though...... while keeping it readable.... is another story, How bout in Control Menu, you give the option to turn on HUD Names, as if the name appears on the marine's HUD, not randomly lit above the head on your screen

    #4 sounds cool, but it might make targeting specific players too easy. Not necessarily good players, but maybe the noobs - making it kind-of a giveaway that the player is an easy kill (easy res). I'd think new/noob players might find this slightly irritating. If it were only visible to the marines however...

    The rest of the customization I think might be pretty cool, if it's subtle.

    Why no hats for aliens? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad-fix.gif" />
    Gorge with party hat would be awesome.
