Releasing unused assets

    So, Eons ago when the game was just a baby, Many assets were created for the game but DC did not want us having access to using these styles for whatever reason. Then the big bang happened and we were allowed Lantern corp emblems and for a time superman and batman emblems. I'm curious to see if we will ever see these assets used or possibly resubmitted for use and allowed by DC. These images floated about for a while back in the day, equipped for promo art, posted on fan sites or by other means, these files are in game and ready to go.

    Are these still considered a hard no? Or could we see these dropped in with future content spotlights? the monocle and Coluan piece would be a great reason to go back to origin crisis content

    It would be awesome if the devs could reply if this could be a possibility. These are dope and I've known they were a thing and hoped the devs would use them eventually.

    The Coluan / Brainiac face piece is a no-brainer. I thought for sure it would have come out in the Legion rewards.

    The Brainiac face piece would be perfect for next Bonus Wayne Casino Coins week. Especially as Brainiac is in the episode.

    Not unused. But I wouldn't mind the footwear the npc women wear be converted to be wearable by player characters

    I'd like to see the styles of the characters they created before the game came out they had them in the trailers I can't think or they're names right now but I know people know who they are one was a clown a ninja girl a mermaid woman with a staff and a few others.

    I would like to see some of the other features they had planned like the pvp mode that had your team working with the JLA or LOD to capture Doomsday . You would of had to fight each other and Doomsday at the same time. It was in one of the videos ok the games before it was released.

    I believe these are what you're referring to
    most of those pieces, except for the clown, have made it live. you can see from left to right, patriotic, tech sniper, ninja
    bottom pic from L to R, shaman (Clown style never made it in) Gadgeteer, (Unknow) then some aspecs of demonic

    Yeah that's them . I always thought they would do more with them.

    I remember when they said they couldn't add Auras because of licensing reasons, and then boom, we get Auras.

    Then about GL emblems because of lincesing reasons, and then BOOM, GL Emblems and enhanced ones too! Not to mention every single character emblem is available for us too.

    Then we asked for the real GL auras (glowing chroma material) and they said they didn't have the tech yet, I wonder what they meant with it? Because as far as I know we still have the same tech since 2011, no engine upgrade was made, but somehow BOOM! we got that as well.

    I think the real deal about we not having certain styles is because the Devs themselves still don't know how to cash in with them.

    Just wanted to say that the Devs frown upon people who data mine and post the data they find. They already commented on it before and said that's against the EULA.

    And, the Omac set would be neat.
  13. Curse Bringer Most Wanted

    Yes I am aware, these images were already publicly posted by the devs at some point within the last 10 years

    Alright, the Brainiac one looked like It was digged from the game files which is why I said it. Other than that, pretty nostalgic to see this.

    They haven't switched to a newer engine, but they have upgraded their tech over the years.

    As for that last sentence...that's pure nonsense players tell themselves when they can't accept the answers they are given (and then people wonder why they are reluctant to answer questions :rolleyes: ).

    Omac suit has been lost in time as far as I can tell. I only see the torso and legs which need help. The other bits I see XML files for as if they were going to be created but they are empty. I'm not sure if those art files can be found.

    The Lex Eye Piece seems doable. Just needs touch up. I'll keep that on a short list of things next time Lexy Poo is around.

    The Brainiac piece was made as an accessory/face item for NPCs but has not gone through the process of being a player item, which takes time to adjust for each type of body type. Doable but not in the short term. I've added it to a short list too when time allows.

    Any thoughts on the beta Jim Lee characters above? I know Meg has them added to her style master list but don't recall if there was ever anything said about them "officially". Shaman style came from one of those characters and a few other pieces in collections did too but not full sets.

    I don't really have a horse in that race personally but know they're a long standing request from some players over the years.

    Long answer - I looked up the other pieces for Patriot(ic) and they were rough/not finished for all body types, etc. Haven't dug too much in the other ones but figure similar states. There's enough to maybe get a jump start on a new version (new Patriot set for all body types for example) but I'd have to ask an actual artist if it even helps enough to be worth it or starting from scratch would be better.

    Short answer - not any time soon.

    Would love to see OG Lex’s eyepiece, I adore high tech monocles! In fact, Future Luthor’s eyepiece once coaxed me back after a five month hiatus when you changed it to allow heroes to use it.
