Another suggestion (might have been already said) I would love it if there was a way to add a “custom” tattoo to your character, running about with my football teams badge plastered over my back - now thats just plain awesome
Perhaps for console versions use of the cameras could be added - like in little big planet, you can use the playstation eye camera to make stickers to use in your levels

Except that (as we’ve already discussed before) everyone will be running around with penis tattoos on their bodies.
I like the idea, but I’d want the option to turn off custom tattoos and they would probably have to be off by default.
That’s excellent thanks! Btw, do you have a link to that FAQ, thanks again.

Pretty weak if you ask me. Sounds like an awesome feature, that fits in perfectly with the whole character design aspect of the game getting trampled because someone is “thinking of the children”.
Sure give an option to turn it off but lets not promote a world were we cut options for fear of seeing a cock. I mean really, will you shrink and whither if you saw such a thing in game?
Besides here is my list of things to avoid in MP games.
Maybe we could look at 1-8 before worrying about phallic distractions. Oh and if there was a player ranking option you could easily vote down many of the planks in that list and never have to see them again.
I know a serverside demo would work for everything but that wasn’t what I was asking.
In ETQW you could record a demo, go to third person, move around etc. Isn’t this all you need to make a killcam/killercam? It only focuses on the details that (and here is my assumption) is already in the clients datastream. If as I suspect my assumption is missing some glaringly obvious fact what is it?
I’m not trying to prove SD wrong, just understand the technical limitation that I didn’t feel was explained in the IRC chat.
BTW - What’s not to be thrilled about a killercam? Or the better idea of automatic tagging in demos?

imo #3 is something I look forward to in MP games
have to agree, i look for the “expert gamers” they are most fun to play with and dont need to be man handled into the right place, they know what they are doing better than i do 
exactly, find 'em, follow 'em, learn from them
some of the best games I’ve had were ones where no communication was needed
engis know what to do, medics and FO know who to follow and where to throw
The game depicts torture? I’d have thought that any ‘think of the kids’ argument would be null and void, tbh.
SD are good at torture, look at how long they’ve kept details about Brink secret and are now not giving any video footage 
Wow, didn’t think I’d had to spell it out. Everyone drink an extra cup of cynicism coffee this morning? 
Maybe ‘“Expert” Gamers’ would have been better.
I of course mean people who join a server then proceed to shout, whinge and whine when anyone on the server doesn’t do what they perceive as being the way to play the game. Ultimately pissing people off so that they leave, tk the person or end up arguing for the entire game.
Of course, skilled/knowledgeable gamers are quite obviously desired.
I see you visit the same websites [strike]I do[/strike] my friend does. 
No, silly; I’m on your side. If the game depicts torture (and I’m not making the argument that it shouldn’t), I don’t think you can seriously argue that cartoon penises are going to damage kids minds, because… well, the game depicts torture.
It’s a bit like suggesting that foul language is going to warp the children’s minds when you’re talking about a movie that also shows mass murder and graphic violence and stuffs.

You seem to have missed the whole listen server issue!

We’re on the same side. I’ve seen enough American TV to understand the total brainfart that is moral censorship and the total hypocrisy of it all.
Duly edited.
More like didn’t understand the relevance but on a second read through of the IRC would I be warm to say something along the lines of you can’t play a demo and play a game at the same time.
What about the bookmarks though? Would it be possible to inserted tags/bookmarks into demos based on in game events?
Personally, I think they should focus on finishing the game and making it fun to play rather than something completely irrelevant like killcams. Not that I don’t think they’re doing exactly that.
