More Survivor Skins

Recommended Posts

In a group of 4 people, if you have 2 people with the same weapon, it quickly becomes difficult to tell them apart if the server has nametags disabled. A more varied selection of survivor skins would resolve this issue. (More varied as in the difference between men & women, not just a pair of sunglasses.) I understand we're in alpha, I just want to make sure the team realizes this is a gameplay issue, not an aesthetic one.

I'd +1 this (I sort of am, actually!), but if I recall correctly, skins are currently client-side. It's why sometimes you wear blue jeans, white shirt, khaki vest and others you wear black pants, white shit, black vest, etc. How you see your character isn't necessarily how others see it either, and vice versa.

If it were technically possible with the engine (I wasn't around during the original bandit-skin era) to have skins be server side attached to our GUID, or handled similarly to camo outfits and whatnot, I say +2, not just +1.
