    I think there should be custom-made hats, like Minecraft's skins. Then, the community could expand a bit more with artists making downloadable hats.

    EDIT- Yeah, I guess this won't work. :( But, I'd really like a chance for creativity in this game.

    Would like a bucket hat, would like engineer's helmet from TF2 style.
    Would like a Miner's helmet.
    New Years 2012 glasses
    Zombie Mask (Made of zombie flesh)

    That works until you have people running around with crazy nazi hats.

    Also the way it would work, grabbing it from their client would be laggy and terrible most likely :(

    Now if the server owner could choose to add extra files :)

    It was more the Jewish guy that looked like something out of a piece of Third Reich propaganda. I doubt it's purpose was to be inflammatory but it's still a pretty nasty picture.

    EDIT apparently my phone doesn't agree with the internet as out appeared this would be posted a fair easy back in the thread...

    Why would you need a 'proper moderation system' when you already have guards?
    Let people make and wear whatever heads/hats they want, and if somebody got a problem with it they can report it just as you do with hackers.

    Guards might not exist as a concept forever (the idea of hand-selected moderators only scales so well with population) and have only signed up for in-game moderation - some of them have trouble committing even to that, and it'd be unfair to expect more of them. We'll see what we can do once we've actually got the game together. Hats are hardly a priority.

    What about community hats? I just found something interesting that could make it easily possible, am working on it now.

    The hard truth is that good spriters are far and few between; I can only see user made hats taking away from the overall quality of the game. I'd rather have no hats at all than to see everyone running around as a grotesque approximation of their favourite Star Wars characters.

    Sure its amusing novelty but do you really want to make the game look like a round of Mugen?

    I think KAG without hats would be easier for everyone, but if there isnt anything to customize this game would get relatively bland and casual gamers would still cry out for some type of customization.

    The idea isn't to allow this for just anyone, but for only cool dudes to add to the file.

    Currently we're just making one for our clan, we'll see where it goes from there.

    Individual stuff like that for clans would be very cool, it's pretty hard to work out who's who at the best of times.

    hmm... How about server based hats?
    So if you host a server you can add hats to the list.

    My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic hair for female characters. Sorta like how Transformice did :P.

    Also it comes with the benefit of making this game pony related which will bring in loads of more players :P.

    1. Post this in "New hats" in suggestions forum

    2. Pony hair styles? For a game about the middle ages? Just NO.

    I think an idea of having one volunteer to accept the hats wouldn't be bad.

    For an example:
    User sends a hat to the volunteer.
    The volunteer finds the hat good enough.
    The hat is added in the next update.

    Since the poster promises over 200 hats, why not?
    Ain't top priority though :P

    Sounds pretty good and allows some community influence in this game.

    Dead body you say... *cocks shotgun*

    My suggestion was just a suggestion regardless over how unlikely\likely it would be implemented. (And might give the devs an idea of what type of players who play this game.)
