GST hats winter 2016 - 2

Zetectic · 02-23-2016

shoulderpad, wing, helmet, spangenhelm, things that represents barbaric.
color = gold or black(talking about real dark) or pick a theme color each season

would be sick as hell if admins only draw the outline of hats.
the winner picks the template and customize the colors.

in my dreams..

This is exactly what happened. Players where complaining that the hats were too generic so it was decided that we would try to make them as unique as possible, and now you guys want us to go back to the generic hats. If you think we are out of ideas now, imagine having us stick to a specific theme.

We have to make 6 hat each GST. There are 4 GSTs in a year. That's 24 unique hats. I don't think you guys would be happy with 24 different styles of helmets and wings.

You'll never be able to please everyone at once until you let people upload their own hats so it's probably not worth it to try
As long as the hats are well-made and original I really don't care what they are, some seem like poor efforts but that's just me

Like the swords hat Alumni Mixed won a long time ago, that's a good hat, it's not even amazing looking it's just original and shaded nicely and the theme relates to sparring, etc.

@Yog It just sucks knowing that if you earn a hat it just don't feel like you've won something amazing, instead you feel silly wearing a fruit basket or a cobra on your head.
It's hard making 24 different hats that aren't similar to older hats but its not hard to suit the theme of a tournament based around combat and teamwork.

Quick question what is the theme of these hats?

true, but they are getting criticized every season. so they should try something different for once and see the reaction.
//imo uploading their own hat would take too long(making part).

Well back when graal initiative was active it seemed very much possible to have 24 unique helmets and wing haha

Yeha I agree, it doesn't need to be 100% sparring related, its just as long as the hats thought out and well executed to hint towards sparring.
Its especially nice when they have GST actually on them. No idea why but its kinda just warming to see a friend wearing the hat and reading gst every time they turn around.

There is no theme. Just unique.

Did you read what I posted? Classic used to do what everyone seems to be asking for in this thread, but they still complained so we changed.

I didn't hear any complaints early on in gst's to be honest.
I loved most gst hats up until maybe 12 months ago.
not sure when you came into the gfx team though
