I am sure they will be popular for a while then get old, but I like this idea, its another option for us RPers

These are Halloween masks if you think about it, since we get them when Halloween comes to the Matrix SMILEY We just get to use these all the time, and they don't come from zombies or punkins SMILEY

Ooh actually I think I am wrong, they will come after Halloween ends SMILEY

Heelz da! I used to have an alt for something like this - I'd have to code all the clothes and remake the alt every once in a while for gender changes, and it was so costly and time consuming... but now I can just farm the gang boss! AND IT'S REUSABLE! <3

Yeah, they come after Halloween but they are the same principle as the masks. Of course as someone said in another thread, this will make it difficult to spot clothing stacking, at least in the initial rush.

I'm going to agree with Odj on this..

At least it will give the area bosses a new breath of life, especially for those who have all the nodes.

That's a neat idea!

I think at first we'll see these all over the place like we do when Halloween is here, but even during the 2 weeks of Halloween, near the very end people aren't wearing the masks anymore.  So I give them 2 weeks of popularity and then they'll be items strictly for RPers.  At least we're getting some new RP tools!

Kudos.

Heh, I'm looking at a storyline where one of my male alts winds up becoming an incubus (or rather, winds up with an incubus symbiote, somewhat like the White Court vampires in Jim Butcher's Dresden Files novels), so this is right up my alley...

but they have no timer, and the "RSI Captures" will work year-round.

Woootiiiliiihuutt. Also good for some RP and..lot's of other fun hehe.

Nice work Dev's!

I think they're pretty neat. I'd love to see this extended to other npc types as well - the exiles in hideouts, enemies in archive missions and constructs, etc.  Their reusable nature is one of their strongest points.

I really like this idea, and It'll be nice to have these bosses available as characters for movies.  *starts thinking of possible movies*

It's a pretty random thing to introduce into the game.  Will we see other RSI capture devices in the future?  Only Rarebit will know.


And the only con I can see about these is not being able to see your opponent's gear in PVP.  I don't PVP much, so it's not a real problem for me personally.

I think this is a really cool idea. Plus, if you use these in PvP, your clothing has some order, instead of the wacky combos like suit+jeans+tennis shoes, etc.

Isn't Mammon supposed to be dead?

I like the idea and if anyone 'doesn't see the point',I'll spell it out.  F-U-N.
