I was playing this game for awhile and i was wondering why this good game does not have cape's. There might of been another post about this but didn't see it. But let me finish about this suggestion it will make this game better to have a cape should have fighter,mage,range cape. Have diffrent colors diffrent ablitys make your Dungeon Runner look like a HERO. If anyone esle thinks this is a good idea please feel free to vote thos thread up for. If you dont think this is a good idea please post and why you think its not a good idea.


Thanks.

1st, to make sure your ideas get seen post them at IdeaRunners.com too.

Are you talking about 'cape' style armors or adding an armor slot for capes?

Capes have been suggested for quite some time now. They are already on Idea Runners, here. On a side note, if you did not "see" any posts for capes, it means you did not search.

I can see their usage as they have been suggested for posses. In this light, they would be purely decorative to display the wearer’s posse logo or colors. Can you say NC Coin? Sure, I knew that you could.

Others suggest them for additional armor, meaning they would have skills and stats added. Everyone loves extra stats, but I would rather see something other than capes, since every other mmo has them.

Perhaps posses could have the little samurai flags on a shoulder. As for extra armor, types there are several other unique suggestions floating around Idea Runners. Boxer shorts, glasses, etc.

Daaaayuuum boiiiii, think outside da box! Dx

I like the glasses 'n boxers idea though, would be pretty DR style if the boxers could go on your head...

As for other little details...a paper "Shame Bag", sandwich man two-sided cardboard ad (with something written on it), pink bicycle helmets, ridiculously too large codpiece etc.

I was thinking of having another item slot but what ever the maker's of the game think will look best as armor slot or armor add on dont matter. I just want to see this game with some capes so everyone can look like a champion/hero my friends even told me this game will be good if it had capes i agree to. I went to idearunners.com and saw what that guy was saying about capes and put my suggestion in there so it will look good but i want to keep this post up cause i really think it can happen if you guys think about it.


Thanks

Capes...would be cool to have (because of the added slot), but as long as you can turn the graphic off. I'm not a fan of the way they look with some armors and they might hide really cool armors too.

How about another "accessory" slot? One that the item would show up on the character model depending on what it was. For example the "Eyebrow hoop of Doom" would show as an eyebrow piercing, or the "Egyptian Armband of Cat Hairballs" would be an upper arm cuff (that may or may not be seen based on the armor worn)...or it could be used for a cape and show as one.

Would have a few difficulties with that. They would first have to address which actually suits of armor would show which "accesories" based on the way they are designed. Then would have to incorporate the image for each being show with each set of armor being used and then the game actually determining which one is being worn. Not a bad though but lots of coding involved for that.

Capes wouldn't be bad though but hide/no hide options would be nice for capes and helms.

Yeah i see what you mean about them having difficulties but dungeon runners staff made this so we can tell them how to make the game better. I would love to see them put capes up on dungeon runners i would love this game even more. But i wonder if they even look at what we type here and stop and think about it.

If DR staff members see this please stop and think about it before just saying no or not a good idea i know you can make capes happen show me and the rest of DR members you guys can do it.


Thanks

Calm down. We get it, you like capes. The developers do read the forums when they get the chance. The team has taken a recent size cut and is working on the upcoming chunk, thus they are busy. As it has been said before, capes have been suggested many times and they may or may not make it into the game. However, I do not think they are such a big deal as to make the game better or "good" because of their involvement. While it may make everyone look like "heroes", it will also make everyone look like other mmo toons. Besides... "Dungeon Runners", not "Dungeon Heroes". Running with a cape could be obnoxious.

Beware the capes.

Now that's an idea I like.
Does anyone know if you can be a member of more then one posse?

I understand necromatrix that they dont want DR to be like other mmo's which it wont even if capes do come out because simple DR has its own unique style and texture and game based which you can do what you want as walk around,talk,kill,get money or what you want to do.
