Additionally, the chick in the pic is Courtney Stodden. Always wears stripper high heels. She's pretty hot, your typical "blonde bimbo" type/style that guys always call trash and say they have no interest in, but secretly want to smash.

SMASH you say?

Just kidding that's too much smashing for anyone!



I don't think there's many players who would concentrate on or zoom up to the female's feet to have an ogle.
The feet lovers might do !


Maybe anyone who isn't an adult should no longer be allowed to go to beaches then? All those women in swimsuits and bikinis on these beaches must be problematic.
Then you hear a siren and the Censor Police would place a censor box over the person and fly off :eek:

I wonder if the research has slowly swayed your views. I doubt it.
It has made me realize that heels have their place, and also made me look into heels that can change.

If people could put half the energy it took to argue this topic into the game development it would most likely already be finished. All the sexuality problems with how females are presented and what they wear won't mean squat if there isn't a game for them to be in. Just get the game and we can worry about who looks like what after it is done.

This topic is interesting glad it got created, because reading the different view points of some of the community, and what foot wear we may see or would like to see.

I'd like to at least look presentable with a cool G-suit, and be playing which should be achievable!

I still hold true to what i originaly said, let that be something for them to work on AFTER the game is released, you are not looking at your feet when you are blasting away, nor are thouse around you.

Should not be too hard for them after release to make the body suit, head, hands and feet induvidual cosmetic pieces.

Perhaps not your own feet but what about others in some exceptions such as:

* If knee biters are near friendlies feet
* Perhaps a tsihu grappler has caught someone while jetpacking
* A sneaky opponent has set a trap that has made someone stuck, and need to decrypt to unlock the trap or use brute force or shoot it.
* Medical intervention when foot section is more vulnerable to take impact and could affect movement if not repaired.

I am probably over thinking this although could be interesting hmm

Impossible for me to say what you or anyone else fokuses on in the intense moment of battles.
I myself, dont even fokus on what the gun look like in a shooter, or how my avatar looks, my fokus is 100% on the Ui, healthbars and the crosshair. Watcing the avatars is what i do in towns/ non combat hubs.

There is something i wonder when things get chaotic are there ways to reduce or barely show effects of explosions, effects using some kind of lens /filter.

The reasoning is they may have technology or goggles that can be optionally toggled to a different lens for the user's customization in particular situations.

Imagine ski goggles with tech so that they are able to let in the right amount of light. In addition those who want to see other views such as thermal imaging, night vision and so on these could be specialist visions that need to be researched.

The reason can also be for the player to enjoy the game better by:

- Reducing chance of Epilepsy through the lowering of certain lighting / effects etc
- To help improve performance a bit more
- To be able to see certain things better


Another thought could be is that melee players may like to see different parts of the opponent if they are able to damage their weapon with a melee strike? or perhaps make contact on a specific point of their limbs etc

I know this is mainly revolved about gun play and such still it's interesting to think of the other ways as well too.

There is that sense of immersion when you can see yourself as if you are inspecting your gear perhaps that is something done in the battleframe station or if you are able to do self diagnosis with medic /engineer pets help etc etc

Kinda hard for me as an Asperger to deduct if you are talking RL or virtual game world now, i am assuming you are talking virtual game world and will respond to that.

You should give this a read when you find the time: https://laurakbuzz.com/2020/08/28/t...e-epilepsy-safe-mode-settings-access-ability/

I have seen two games that had a photosensitive epilepsy filter option to turn down the flash level, but i cannot for the life of me remember their names. While i am not diagontised with epilepsy, i am getting sever migrane when i play either the expansion for Outriders, or Phantasy Star Online 2, or Overwatch 2 thouse 3 games has a huge amount of flash fx and i cant play them.

But, are we not drifting off topic now??

Just as joke I'll add this video. into the topic.

But really I do know of a few fighting styles where women have a clear advantage over men. Yes, in real life there are some fighting styles where your sex does make a noticeable difference in what you can an can't do just do to how differences is how men's and women's bodies are build slightly difference (Fact the shape of some bones in the human body is difference between men and women.). And those are mostly kicking styles that are disguised to look like dances to take advantage of the fact that women often wear dress so can use them to hide their moments distract people while also using high heels as weapon because the smaller point of those types of shoes do more damage with each kick. It is why some combat teachers say things like "If you know how to dance, than you know how to fight."

Yes! & the topic did drift :oops:

It can certainly affect the experience from a good one to a not so good experience.

That article was very interesting games with settings like this could certainly make it better for those with variable light sensitivity.

On a somewhat related but different note.

I really, really, REALLY like the current design for the Assault omniframe. If there must be a redesign, could you guys at least leave the current one in as an option?

It's preference but I'm not a fan of the design of the proposed new one.

Did I mention I REALLY like the current design?

Perhaps there are 3 categories such as

Legacy - The good classic mechs
Prototype - The Unique and strange mechs
Current - The standard type mechs

That way the new design, old design can be selected if they get that!

Honestly, if certain animations would be to difficult to port over between them, I wouldn't mind not having melee for example.

Just give me a good, manly looking replacement for my Firefall Assault. I'm sure many would feel the same way.

Well i'd be disappointed if melee wasn't there unless it was delayed and happened later on then its good :D

A particular thing keep wondering is the appearance slider to change sections of the look e.g. mech feet or the head type etc

That way could imagine customizing to the most beefy looking mech to the most slimeline mechs etc

I think this topic is about heels but what about just running around barefoot? In real life symbolism and myths god(s) and other high spiritual beings don't where shoes. In fact in many artwork one of the easiest ways to denote a god or holy person from normal people is that god(s) and holy people don't wear shoes both as a sign of their holy power and their closeness to nature.

Now, I know why we can't run around barefoot on the planet given now cold it is. But what about those shoes that look like feet? Toes and all. lol

They are called toe shoes.
Aslong as the avatar has fully modeled feets, toe shoes is prolly the easiest thing to program.
