I have had this thought for a while but only recently remembered it. It originated from Reptile's main and alt costumes in MK9. I loved the alternate costume's vest but hated the mask. On the other hand I liked the main costume's mask.

How would you all feel about swapping components of costumes?. It would be completely different from Kreate a Kharacter or creating costumes for characters. Those ideas tend to dull the game because it forces the artists to create a whole bunch of costume components, wasting time, effort and idea's. With merely swapping the artist are tasked with literally nothing extra.

There is a tiny bit of code however.. But nothing serious. It really shouldnt be all that hard to implement. The body is staying the same.. the clothes are merely being swapped.

Has anyone else experienced this?

That is interesting because that would be a variation specific design. So that would be tougher to swap, even on her alt she will probably have the aviator's for that variation.

Some kind of customizable outfits would be nice. MK as of right now is one of the few major fighting game franchises that doesn't allow it. Although now that I think about it that might be why they chose to have different appearances for variations.

Could very well be possible. I hope they take it to the next step tho. Sometime's you really like a certain thing about an alt costume (mask, hat, no mask, no hood, etc) but wish you could see it on the characters nostalgic uniform.

^ This was added in Injustice. CPU opponent's costume was selected randomly from the costumes that were unlocked. I'm sure it will carry over to MKX.

I Love this idea. I mentioned it myself in a few different "MKX WishList" Threads

NRS would have to make an Unmasked Head/Face for every ninja. But that doesnt sound too hard right? LoL

As for the cosmetics of variations (Like Cassie's Shades)... NRS said it was so you could tell which stance your opponent was in. But thats silly becuz its written right there under the health bar. Unless they plan on deleting that closer to Launch?

I also want more that 1 alternate costume. Some Injustice guys had TEN! This gives you plenty to "Swap" from when Kustomizing.

Good, I am glad some people also would like to see this.

I think it is a much better way to have customization than Kreate a Kharacter or Kreate a Kostume. It is basically just an option to cycle through particular attire that already exists for the characters.

Except the developers, when modelling characters, start with a "nude" model and then add the clothes/mask on the character. They would not need to create nee unmasked faces for the ninjas because they're already done.

It is possible that since the face is never shown under the mask is a generic face they all share. This face is shown only during combat damage. What ORION is talking about is creating individual faces for all masked characters which I doubt NRS is putting time in if the faces are never shown.

Considering they model unique faces for the female characters and all the non masked males, i don't see how a lil quick tweak here and there for 5 characters would be a though task

THAT.. I completely agree with. Shouldn't be a hard task considering the wealth of customization options that would be possible if it happened.
