✭✭Add nothing - tabard is good enough.Not really, Im yet to see an MMO with good looking capes.Edited by khele23eb17_ESO on August 16, 2014 4:35PMP2P offered you 'hell yeah!' moments. F2P offers you 'thank god its over' moments.2 -
Buck✭✭✭Add both cloaks and capes.Have any of you that said no seen any ESO videos? or the launcher pic? or the NB figurine? lol All the main chars in the videos are wearing them... no idea why they aren't in the game atm but it's funny that some do not want others to have them simply because of their own opinions of them.
-but I would add that I don't want to see them either or any new content... until they fix what's broken with the game first.1 -
zdkazz✭✭✭✭Add nothing - tabard is good enough.either they would be glued to your back and stiff or the lag would be terrible as people ran around and the capes moved with phisics, so nope, dont want to see them. Its the same reason hair is stiff, and not flowing in the wind, the information would have to be sent to the server to desplay all those moving capes, this would lead to more information going through the server so it can be sent out to everyone else, and the more info sent through to the server and then distributed the more lag we would see.
so pick your poison : stiff crappy looking capes, and good performance,
or physics based capes, and terrible lagEdited by zdkazz on August 16, 2014 6:27PM1 -
zdkazz✭✭✭✭Add nothing - tabard is good enough.im just going to leave this here it is from tamreil foundry and it explained why long hair and capes would increase lag,
HIS ANSWER
it is not as if the current ones move a lot. I would choose long static over no long hair. they can always include setting to turn off them, just like tomb raider guys did in their game. those who would be able to handle it, then why not. not everybody is a pvper, and definately there are those who can handle it. or maybe even an option to display your own character’s long hair animated and keep the rest static. many options that require a littlebit of good will
MY REPLY
it would still increase lag as it is information sent to the server to show up for all the people who do have it on, so whether you have it on or not it would still effect you, tomb raider is a sp game and didn’t have to relay any of the hair or any other information to a server for others to see. the less info sent to the server to prosses and send out the less server lag we get, and i bet you remember the beta server lag lol, if even one person had it on in battle all the information from the 100+ capes and hair would have to be interpreted by the server and sent to him, through the same channel that our attacks and movements are sent, and thats just one person, it is a ton of extra info in the server stream and would effect us all, not just the person with it on…2 -
KitLightning✭✭✭✭Oh yush cloaks 'cause then I can run around in my naturals, right.
Cloaks would be a good addition, but with the option of having them being able to be hidden, also during battle, the cloak should be removed all together so they are not blocking the view of others.
Adding skills/effects on cloaks would be a natural part (at least looking at it from an RPG perspective), though since space is limited on the current layout of the character, it may be that the cloak would be able to occupy the slot of the disguise, that way no further edits in that are would be needed.
I can surely imagine realistic needs, you walk by a food source, and your "resource compartment" has a 20% chance of being lowered for absolutely no reason other than the displayed food sources looks tasty. Or if playing a female character, all "sales" signs would have a 20% chance to make the character stop and become immovable for X minutes, and if playing a male character, all weapons shop would have a similar effect.letohatcheeub17_ESO wrote: »Only if they add something like Frostfall and Realistic Needs and Diseases..

I beg to differ. A cape is short, typically only reaches down to the buttocks, and usually only cover the back and shoulders. A cloak is longer (reaches to the ankles), covers most of the front as well, and usually has a hood.1 -
DaniAngione✭✭✭✭✭Add both cloaks and capes.Well, two of the three 'main characters' from the CG movies they've released wear some kind of cloak or cape, so...
They might be mocking us there
Ok, I voted that I would like to see both in-game but it was a bad vote. I should've voted on the 'I have a better idea' - not that I think it's better, to be honest, it's just a different idea.
I'd really like to see cloaks and capes in the game, but I DON'T think they should be a normal equipment piece.
For me, cloaks and capes should be entirely cosmetic.
Also, I'd love to have them somehow 'interactive'...
Let me explain:
I think capes and such (especially when made of fur) are great and usually worn for environmental protection. For me, capes and such could be like a 'toggle' thing on the options (like we toggle to show helmets or not) where, when toggled, our characters would wear them considering the area and weather, so..
For example, imagine a plated warrior with some bear pelts on his shoulders. If it rains, he raises the hood. When on a cold region (like Rivenspire and Skyrim regions), he wears the hood and a cloth mask, on hot or dusty regions, he wears a small cloth cape to protect against the sun and a cloth mask when a sand storm arrives (like it happens in Alik'r)...
So, yeah, that's the only way I'd like to see capes, cloaks and such. As a cosmetic thing to increase immersion on harsh environments.0 -
KitLightning✭✭✭✭I beg to differ. A cape is short, typically only reaches down to the buttocks, and usually only cover the back and shoulders. A cloak is longer (reaches to the ankles), covers most of the front as well, and usually has a hood.
So the caped crusader is misguided? :O Don't you make me loose all faith in dat BadMan..."I'd rather be insane in a sane world, than sane in an insane world!" ~MeWarning - This is a spoiler and looking at it for too long may cause irrecoverable eyesight issues.

cyqa✭✭✭I wouldn't mind having cloaks included IF they looked good, and there weren't any weird buggy animations, swords poking through, etc. That said, I don't necessarily see it as a priority. I'm in the, "eh, why not" camp.
0 -
Head.hunter✭✭✭I doubt they'll put in the animation people are expecting but it could be a cool addition to the game. Since they added dyes I think cloaks and capes are going to be put on hold for a while if they consider it at all.I'm just a banana from another dimension.0 -

Add a little bit of a wind effect, the ability to put your guild logo on it and you are good to go.

Oh my god, they done it, time to start crying like a fan.
Hey zeni will you sign my notebook too.
I will probably start playing if this is a thing now, and I will probably make more suggestions relative to ESO and making it better.
It is good to see Zeni listening though.

adean27✭✭✭In regards to capes, this was actually addressed at the guild summit, and they discussed how it will not happen at the current level of technology as it would massively increase lag, the only way to do it without increasing lag would be to design it so ugly and dysfunctional that it would be embarrassing.
I forget which audio clip it is on, I'll have to check. I think it's Skills and Itemization with Eric.1 -

"We were doing anaylsis on the number of bones we could support while still having the number of people supported on screen that we currently have, and it was basically 2 that we could have in a cloak. And a cloak that has 2 bones doesn't look like what you want it to, it looks ridiculous. And we were just doing analysis of whats the amount of work it's going to take and how many players on screen, and what's the performance we're going to have to take as the result of that. And it was going to cost us too many players and too much performance, so we just made the decision to not do it."2 -

I just noticed something...Take a closer look a this video, you can clearly see characters wearing cloaks at 9:00. Which means they're in the data base, they just haven't been implemented. Is it possible we could get cloaks in one of the upcoming updates?0
