Character Customization?

[USSZim]

Has there been any word on the ability to customize our soldier? Seems like Vietnam would be fitting since a lot of soldiers took liberties with their uniforms and the Vietnamese had a pretty loose code, (in the case of the VC, none at all).

I'm wondering if we'll see some realistic, era-appropriate customization like different headgear, helmet inscriptions, clothes, etc.

That would be dope. Maybe we can even type in our own writings on our helmets for the US side.

Different customisation per class would be the ultimate customisation feature.

too many people (classification boards especially) wouldn't see the funny side of it

peace badges would be mandatory though :IS2:

Customization is a very attractive feature to many players. As long as it's done tastefully it could fare well with the community.

The Insurgency mod for HL2 had a system where you could choose the race, uniform style (to a realistic extent), and eye wear. Everything was cosmetic and did not effect gameplay, but it was a cool feature because it ensured that there weren't carbon copies of players running around on the map.

I could live with that! It's tasteful, limited and people won't look like clowns..
