Not a big fan of capes tbh. If they had no stats so I wouldn't have to wear one, I would be fine with others having it. Though I do think it looks ridicules.
If I recall they said they would look into it, but no immediate plans for cloaks/capes
I'd like to see them eventually if they get the physics right
Not again...
however, you are entitled to your opinion
Me... I vote against it.
No personal insult intended...just my opinion.
I want capes , cloaks , and tabards with guild insignias on them , I actually miss these items from my last MMO .
There is also something cool about a hooded cloak on a class like a Nightblade
Cloaks with guild emblems like they had in DAOC would be awesome. Just seeing someone's guild emblem would tell you how good they were, and what kind of reputation they had. I know I avoided some fights just by seeing their guild's emblem on their cloak. It also created really awesome rivalries between various guilds. Don't see that much anymore these days
Capes = Superheroes and fantasy people who think way too much of themselves
Cloaks = Something worn by normal adventurers trying to keep themselves warm or to hide weaponry
Tabards = Cheap method to add description and color to armor
I vote all three. For the need of all three is ever present.
Cloaks are awesome, I don't know why there's so much hate for them. The only problem is that I've pretty much never seen them implemented without some kind of annoying clipping.
cloaks and capes are always cool to have, but physics are always an issue. For those who don't want them nearly 100% of MMOs always have a toggle off function for both them and helmets. Tabards would be nice but they sometimes feel like too much. In WoW 100% of players wore tabards over their armor, and it always obfuscated the armor underneath to the point where half the time I couldn't even tell you what my chest piece might actually look like. Tabards if implemented should definitely have a toggle option, it annoyed me to no end when WoW made them near mandatory by having them offer reputation gains while giving no option to toggle visibility.
Zennimax already said NO capes... BUT.... their thinking of doing tabards like in wow.
Cloaky armour like Nightingale armour would be cool.
