Good day all,

I'm putting this here as a request to add the customization of our characters facial features and Skin color. In my humble opinion I think this would drastically affect the immersion factor in a positive way, not only allowing players to feel closer to their customized Marine (#USMC BABY...*AHEM*) ,but simultaneously making them more invested in the game prolonging it's longevity (Height and bulk sliders would also be nice but I wont get carried away). Im sure we can all tell how much work and thought has gone into the game especially with the addition of the roadmap being revealed. Allow me to just express my thanks for what seems like a careful and well handled development process. I believe Facial customization is also important for lore accuracy reasons. The salamanders being a prime example. At current, there is no way to make a lore accurate salamander for our space marine due to the lack of this feature. I hope this recommendation will be taken into consideration. It's going to be an honor to serve with you all. See you on the Frontline brothers.

-My Original post is elsewhere in the forums. I didn't realize there was an official "Ideas" section. If you saw my original post I apologize for the "repost"

@Taupinambour - Please note that I think MANY players would be happy even if we just got more 'head without helmet' options. Like, just chapter-specific looks like viking heads with beards for Space Wolves or pale, gorgeous faces with fangs for Blood Angels, coal black faces with red eyes for Salamanders and just some additional generic looks.

A whole facial customization engine would be awesome, but obviously that's a lot of development hours. If ya'll think it's worth it, I'm here for it -- but please don't overlook the easier option if the team decides that the larger 'facial customization functionality' isn't worth the effort.

Even just being able to choose between the faces they already have for the different classes would go a long way.

Hey man, hopefully you see this. How did you reply directly to the Dev that commented on my post? I don't have an option that lets me reply in the same manner that you did. I would like to know for future reference. I'm wondering if for some reason the creator of a thread can't respond directly to the dev's. Maybe b/c it attaches it to the post? Anyway, thanks in advance.

If in multiplayer everyone has a helmet then its kind of redundant to have a helmetless cosmetic no?

Don’t forget spacewolves have fangs too! But yes. Personally I love this idea
