Kurgan the Lurker Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Anyone figured out how to add a custom Chapter badge yet? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/237925-space-marine-pc-shoulder-emblems/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafen_2 Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 You can't. The main reason I heard was that it would be too long to make the data transfer with so many players. Sorry, forgot to add the guys said they never plan on adding it so *shrugs*.

Kurgan the Lurker Posted September 6, 2011 Author Share Posted September 6, 2011 Unfortunate. Chaos only has 2 pages of emblems and most of the powers aren't even include and the Space Marines don't even include existing GW Chapter badges.

At least with chaos you can chose to have a shoulderpad that doesn't have any space for a symbol. As far as my Space Marine guy I closed my eyes and picked one. They had nothing relatively close to mine!

Zarmon Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 They also said it was because they didn't want stupid badges that people would download (Penis anyone?)

Rafen_2 Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 They also said it was because they didn't want stupid badges that people would download (Penis anyone?) The guys at Relic obviously don't find that a problem since no one did it in Retribution. And I played a good amount of last stand matches to vouch for that.

thade Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 They could allow custom badges and allow us to one-click squelch/block the badges if we find them offensive (as we do with microphones and chat). But, as memory serves, that was the protest I saw the developers/designers put forward: they were worried about inappropriate shoulder badges despoiling potential views of their game. Not allowing it = zero room for risk. :( I hope they reconsider; as you said, Retribution had no trouble. ADDENDUM: WOULD IT HAVE KILLED THEM TO ADD A SHIELD?! Just any shield?! That I could make Red. :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/237925-space-marine-pc-shoulder-emblems/#findComment-2869888 Share on other sites More sharing options...

But your suggestion makes sense and I thought that was what they were going to do. Have some simple shapes that people can manipulate. Oh, and add Chaos God Symbols.

Dante Alighieri Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I have a related question: Is is possible to move around some of the emblems ingame already? I wish to have a pre-Heresy Emperor's Children scheme for one of my loyalist skins, and I've been hoping there was a way I could use the emblem already in-game for it. Admittedly, I know it is a vain hope, but it doesn't seem too hard to pull off.

But your suggestion makes sense and I thought that was what they were going to do. Have some simple shapes that people can manipulate. Oh, and add Chaos God Symbols. Not really how it works, sadly. Sure, Retribution gives them some precedent, but it's available only on PC: since Space Marine is available on XBox Live and PS3's network, they also have to abide by their rules which may prevent them from allowing custom images in some cases. Also, with a wider audience they may have the corporate-instilled fear that "somebody looking over a shoulder will not buy the game due to seeing some awkward image on a shoulder plate." I would very much like them to do it, but the fact remains that they haven't and went on record saying this was the reason (see the last FAQ question answered here).

thade Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Sad for both of us. Here's hoping they give it to us anyway. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/237925-space-marine-pc-shoulder-emblems/#findComment-2870801 Share on other sites More sharing options...
