The whole camo system pisses me off.

Why can't we use Camos as Item Tickets and then apply them to all our characters like lobby actions, and then anytime we want to give the weapon a Camo Look, we just pick a camo we have used instead of having to keep them around, floating in inventory and storage. In most games, through the usage of a item one is able to apply the Aesthetics of an item to another.

All of these weapons floating on that webpage makes me feel the player should have had that choice a long time ago...

I give Yamigarasu better odds than anything else there, really. The cute/loli vote gets split between...numerous options, while Yami's only real competition for the sexy vote is Paratizel and maybe Bluesey Requiem. It's like the Republican primary, but with waifus. Well, I can't vote for Monkey King Bar, so, #nocare.

You got problems, lol.
Much more important is being able to use multiple camos. But most important about it is being able to turn any weapon into a camo. We can turn item package weapons into camos so why not others?
Cause Sega is incapable of creating a menu for it that does not include a separate option for every single weapon?

I can understand that there's a complete difference in culture and mindset when it comes to Asia vs West regarding this sort of imagery, but I'd be ashamed to have this sort of softcore porn in one of my games if I were a SEGA representative.

It's not selling sex, it's just catering to lustful mindsets and their own desires.

Is it really that difficult to make costumes that actually reflect the games themes, such as more dedicated ARKS style costumes?
I'm already disappointed with the 5:1 ratio there is with female to male costumes, it's not even laughable at this point honestly.

Those green weapons are used for what, all of fifteen minutes before you level up enough to use a vita weapon? They're completely neglected and have some of the best models in the bloody game. Don't let me down, Japan.

I particularly refuse to vote for Vita weapons because I can't stand the blade/handle ratio on most of them. Way too oversized.

I can understand that there's a complete difference in culture and mindset when it comes to Asia vs West regarding this sort of imagery, but I'd be ashamed to have this sort of softcore porn in one of my games if I were a SEGA representative.

I don't mind the imagery once in a while, but when its every single time.... it becomes plenty clear that the intention is as follows:

Online Gaming is mostly male dominated, so lets keep as many males as possible by giving our target demograph the most suggestive and softcore porn female characters possible; their minds can do the rest, while our pockets are lined with cash....

In the end its pretty much a lot of males falling in love with their characters, turning them into waifus and then spending 10 - 100x more on them, rather than on real girls. Considering in Japan that marriage with non-existent, digital characters is legal, I rather not spend any more time dealing with the politics of a backwards culture. Sure, I like their games... but I find it amazing how the world forgives existing elements in Japanese culture that were publicly and legally abolished in the majority in the world. I would go into detail, but the matter is far too inappropriate for a forum like this...

I see no point raging how male weaponoid don't get enough love as female. Sega is definitely making the top voters for each gender.

As for bluesy whatever, the selling point is her voice and suggestive posture. The costume itself is nothing but bra and tights which we already have plenty in game.

I also would say Salus Punisher and Psycho Wand are Dark Horse candidates to win due to being very good chips

my other picks:

Gunslash: Vita Hatchet - for maximum doritos
Wand: Wand. - just a simple blunt instrument to whack things with, no extra frills needed.
Rod: Vita Striker - really any of the Strikers are fine.

picks from a friend of mine:

Katana: Alva Katana - just a plain cyberkatana. Alva doesnt have that weird wrist gaurd thing that Vita Katana has. just not any of the other series.
TMG: Twin Assault - Alva and Vita add too much garbage to the design

In terms of the other weapon types...I'd be happy with any of them winning because they either all look fine or I just don't care about the weapon type.

I really get a laugh out of PSO2's bizarre thought process behind weapon design themes for different tiers/rarity. Low Star weapons look aesthetically pleasing and are consistent to the setting. Higher Star weapons pretty much says "Fuck it!" and goes for whatever people think is cool nowadays.

Anyway, I'm voting for the Claymore Swords. I always liked the Swords that look like nodachis/big katanas. Don't really like the Calibur Swords, though. The ratio between the lower and upper end of the blade looks ugly.

I like the Vita Weapons...
I think the problem with PSO-2 is that too many unique weapons exist, and too few standardized weapon sets exist.

For example:
If we were to watch a cartoon or series that had typical "extras" like enemy soldiers, we could always identify the general loadout most people have. In PSO-2 it becomes quite hard to do so. What do Neutral Arks and typical soldier/military actually carry? Just spoiler boxes to cover what I mean

Star Trek
[spoiler-box]We know that different color uniforms designate Command, Engineering, or Science Uniforms. We know standard loadout for Away Teams are Phasers (as a weapon) and Tricorders for Scanning. We know Standard Klingon Loadouts are Disruptors, two melee weapons (one dagger, and usually a bat'leth) and their uniforms that double as Armor.[/spoiler-box]

Star Wars
[spoiler-box]We know the typical arms of a neutral character who is rebel alliance or empire. We are familiar with Rebel Pistols, along with the red uniforms and helmets for pilots. We are all familiar with typical stormtrooper armaments and uniform... you know.. the white armored uniform with helmets that make the troopers blind to everything. Even a stereotypical Padawan has a more monk-like uniform and their lightsaber.[/spoiler-box]

Even FF XIV has a neutral loadout extras carry and we can tell by appearance what faction, class, and type a person who is with you actually is. This becomes rather difficult in PSO-2.... so I am all for voting for whatever might add a bit more standardization. There are so many unique weapons out there that it feels PSO-2 is becoming very abstract.

On the weaponoid front, Yamigarasu is putting up a strong performance as I predicted. Really didn't expect Bluesey Requiem to be in first place though. I mean, yeah, it's skimpy, but in such a pedestrian way. You can replicate that with some body paint and swimwear if you like already.

Elevens were a mistake.

Bluesy Rhapsody won the 11* category of the General Election by a landslide.

Okay, I don't understand people.

The 6* weapons, unless the text and body paint are a part of the "photon color", are going to clash with any color scheme that isn't the default. The 1-3* weapons don't have this problem. I don't understand anyone voting for 4-6* weapons.

Don't get the appeal of the assault rifle winner right now, either. Those nuts and bolts are just unsightly. The fact that my favorite one (Vita Sniper) isn't even in the top 3 just makes it hurt that much more. Why is Alva Sniper up in third?! Why is Vita T-Repeater above the Alva or default versions?! WHY DO PEOPLE LIKE SUPPRESSORS!?

Half of these winners are straight-up making me angry. I'm going to be voting for a bunch of second-placers out of spite just to try to push some of these down. Goddamn, I am salty as the Dead Sea right now. Am I going to be using nothing but Ray weapons forever?!

The worst part is that they could solve this just by not doing this stupid contest and making every weapon a weapon camo like they should have to begin with! Grumble, grumble, mutter, mutter...

make every weapon a weapon camo.

This I can get behind because the first place TMG at the moment is ugly(i would much rather the Alva twin assault be in first place), but at least my voting one is in 2nd (if i read the moon runes right, vita twin repeater) and the gunslash i'm voting for is in first, which is nice. As for the first place rifle...WHY?!?!? that model has the worst clipping but stocks of them all.

Well even in the tech weapons category, most of th good designs are at least 3rd so there's hope for pushing the better ones up to 1st place

For weaponoids, I will just laugh and quote someone for this thread

I'm more than a little pissed that there isn't a separate male category. And that a certain blue-haired one didn't make it but its female counterpart did.

The male who did have the most chances to win were indeed Avenger and Weddle Park....at 10th and 15th place.

That involves too much work on Sega's end to do apparently. Plus if you didn't think "why not make every weapon a camo?" or "give us an option to change any weapon we possess into a camo.", then you'll have players blaming other players for their top picks not making the cut so that works in Sega's favor.

This depends on the organization of the program.

In Modern Day Programming Languages (called Object-Oriented Programming) we have a Class System. Usually in games there is a hierarchy. At least when I do Mod Programming for games, my structure is pretty much like this:

Object
Engine
GameDefinitionSP (Singleplayer, Multiplayer etc)
Weapon
Weapon Type
Weapon Name

Let me give you an example...

Suppose I create a game and want to throw in weapons. In running this way I can make weapon adjustment definitions for Singleplayer and Multiplayer through the combination of the Singleplayer Scheme (GameDefinitionSP) and Weapon. Weapon of course is an abstract file that really answers "What is a weapon?" and not which weapon it is. For example, what parameters do all weapons have in common?, Weapon Type of course is "What is a rifle?.. What makes it Special?" and then every single rifle that is different from the standard rifle... like lets say one has more attack power, and uses another model... etc, would go in a Weapon Type File...

Example would be

Rifle //What is a rifle?
Sniper Rifle //We get specific here.....taking properties from Rifle and adding more to it through sniper rifle like giving it a long range scope
Mega Sniper Rifle //Here we copy all that is in Sniper Rifle and give it some more juicy things... like that X-38 from a certain NCIS episode. ^_^

So that would mean...
If we wanted any weapon to be a Camo for another....
We would just have to define it in Weapon and in GameDefinitionSP and then every single weapon that inherits or is made could be made into a camo...

Structure of the program is important.
SEGA has been making games for Decades and I find it wouldn't be that hard to implement.
That is just my two cents...

Zyrusticae
Sep 28, 2016, 06:52 PM
There is no question that it wouldn't be hard to implement. The thing is that they like sticking these camos in AC scratches so they can make money off of it, and making any weapon into a weapon camo would obviously cut into that side of their money-making scheme.

At this point I just curse capitalism itself for most of the ills I see in modern gaming. Monetary incentive just claws its way into every facet of our lives. Frustrating as hell.

They could still tie such a system itno AC : basically in AC scratch one of the items you could get is a ticket allowing you to change a weapon you have into a camo. Pretty sure that'd be another incentive to scratch, instead of getting super expensive camo you don't even care about xD

If I had to guess, Bluesy Rhapsody and Yamigarasu would fighting for top position, Niren Kamui would be a distant third, but still a substantial value, and everyone else would be holding a small fraction of the votes. So everyone below 3rd is basically SOL.

As pretty much everyone else has said - it's not that Lewd is bad, it's just that there's over-saturation on that end of the spectrum. If anything it's more so that there's so much of it at this point that it's boring. The lewd is boring because it's just more of the same.

Dang that is a shame on the DBs Dual Stilettos was 2nd place. I'm glad a version of the Blaster won for ARs. Kinda wish Vita Tagvalve would've won for Launchers, which also took 2nd. The Katana and Bow are kinda nice but my BR/HU already uses a Katana camo that, imo, is way better than anything this vote could've produced *氷剣・ユキアネサ and I doubt I'll ever use something else.

Besides that meh. Not a huge loss on the DBs as I like my *ZodiacSign and Launchers I hardly use so yeah a good AR won and I'm happy.

Now to the weaponoid costume vote. Overall unsurprising hell the only thing surprising is that at the halfway point Strike Brute was at 27th and despite my best efforts he remained at 27th. But on the positive side of that I had no desire to get any of the female costumes so yeah money saved woo, such a bittersweet victory -_-.
