Poll do you want that Bioware made patch/DLC which give more customization Freedom to MEA squadmates

At the very least, we should have alternate (armored) looks and helmets for those who don't have them.

The ability to at least mod companion weapons would be nice as well. But swapping out weapons like ME3 would be better.

if they find the time more is good, but I don't think they need to rush or half kill them selfs for it. if nothing else people would have to find else to declare ME:A not a real rpg or say bioware is dumbing things down.

Liam and Cora hardly have an iconic look.

Honestly it doesn't matter that much to me to customize my squadmates, since I tend to get into a habit of selecting a default team and only use the rest when I have to. I mean my main party in DA:I is Sera, Dorian, and Iron Bull and they get the best weapons and armor and the rest of my companions end up get their hand-me-downs once I find and/or make them better gear (if I even remember to do it).

It less of a chore for me to find and/or make gear for squadmates that I rarely if ever use.

I like RPGs. I like getting new equipment and equipping it on my team. I understand if there are gamers who don't engage with these systems and don't really care. I do, so I vote yes. At the very least some hardsuit looks for the rest of the team.

I want characters that engage in combat and/or visit hostile environments to be protected by armor and full helmets.

Anything less (DA2, ME2, missing helmets in ME3) wreck immersion and internal consistency of the world.

No, customisation should not be DLC. It should be added in a free patch. Actual new content should be the only DLC.

One additional thought, just because I have no particularly issue with it does not mean that others feel the same, I respect the differing concerns of others.

I liked having additional looks for loyal squadmates in ME2.
I disliked (a lot) the cash-grab that was the likes of 'Spoils of the Qunari'.

I would welcome additional 'looks' but it's a 'nice to have' in my view.

As for weapons, I understand the restriction is to allow AI to be improved and for crewmate combat style to be more defined - so here I'd like to see it in action before deciding.

Patches to respond to the most annoyed requests. Like HELMETS. Use it as PR that the game gets supported throughout 2017 (2018?).

Incorporated in larger story DLC (as rewards for finishing? in shops?) to reward the most awesome but uniquely themed looks.

I highly dislike appearance-only DLCs. I only got it for the trilogy because I was fairly obsessed but I am no longer. I only got it for DAI because it was included in GOTY (which itself was bought on discount).

You realize DLCs aren't always paid, right?  Some of them are provided free of charge.

The Weapons of my squadmates I don't care that much. if the companions are not suppose to use a different weapons considering their role in the team.

For exemple if drack is suppose to keep a shotgun for the purpose of his krogan charge and being most of the time in close range, I am all right with that.

For armor, I don't care that much into not equiping them with different one, If drack is supposed to always have an heavy armor for gameplay purpose I am all right with his stats to be only according to his level.

what I want on the other hand is different skins. I want to be able to have different looking costume for my squadmates, I loved to do that in pretty much every rpg, I love different looks for my characters in SWTOR DAO and DAI and I ABSOLUTELY want that in MEA.

So if it is not there at release, I want that to be either given as free dlc, or included in a bigger single player dlc WITHOUT raising the price of the dlc, giving it more value. As I explained in my thread yesterday :http://bsn.boards.net/thread/4916/mea-dlc-bioware-ea

Fans made a patch (a mod actually) for Dragon Age 2 that allowed you to change your companion's armors. It wasn't a technical limitation at all. All it needed was a couple of days, maybe months of unprofessional modding and it worked. However, apparently it went against BioWare's design to the game and I think that's the same problem as Andromeda.

...however, if they're already planning paid DLC for alt appearances... well, fuck off, because we have proof you could simply patch it or even mod it on PC.
