    IFN Rank Clothing

    The IFN have released the new IFN Rank Clothing range for all IFN Ranks in 3 variants (Arctic / Desert / Jungle). The Beret and Jumpsuit can be claimed at the following IFN Firebases from the IFN Clothing NPC.
    • Indomitable Firebase
    • Victorious Firebase
    • Valiant Firebase

    The first set will be issued for free according to Rank for one of the 3 variations and additional sets of any camo can be bought at a 1 to 1 TT ratio with Carabok Hide (15 Hides) at the IFN Clothing NPCS.
    A Jumpsuit can be exchanged to a new rank once promoted at any of the IFN Clothing NPCS for no additional cost and must be fully repaired to exchange.

    The old IFN Clothing is no longer being issued during the IFN Recruit mission chain.


    Bug fixes

    The IFN has updated the censors to the security door @ Dauntless firebase to ensure it remains locked.

    Re-reading the post I am also really happy I finished the recruitment mission a few days ago so I can rock the old and the new set. :)

    It would be great if the IFN clothing NPC would respond... Anyone else having this problem?

    All went fine here. Do you have any rank acquired, or got the mission at all?

    Its good to see the ranked uniforms.
    I still recall instructors rambling endlessly about the perils of wearing any indication of rank on the battlefield though.
    I'll therefore happily keep my old uniform so as not to attract unwanted attention in the form of axes and bullets from oratan and smugglers outside of IFN bases, and keep the new one for parades and ceremonies.

    I still know nothing about ranks and aren't exactly a clothes collector, but these are very nice indeed. The design shows great attention to detail, just love the shells. The boots are a compromise within existing constraints I understand, appreciate that they won't collide with armour. Thanks!

    Yes looks like I didn't had Arkadian passport and rank, however what I would like to see in future updates is a automatic response from mission bots. They could respond to interaction with explanation what I need to do or why I am unable to continue this mission, because looking from a new player perspective it might be challenging to continue from one mission step to another if you missed something in between.

    This is certainly true.
    Since the Ark new player mission chain takes you all over the planet is is very hard to figure out where to pick up the next mission once started. I have spent a lot of time scouring ark forums and release notes and comparing my completed mission record to those of newer players to try and figure out where they need to go for the next mission.
    Some feedback on where to resume the new player mission chain from IFN NPC's or even the IFN terminal would prevent a lot of frustration for many players. This would be a 'go and talk to <whoever> at <whereever>' mission offered to anyone who has not started or completed the mission chain.
    I personally found the Ark starter mission chain a lot better than the those on Caly, but it is not obvious where to start if you are not born on the planet. This advisory mission should start by telling migrants that they can speak to the passport officer at new player arrivals about a passport without making it blatantly obvious that he is running a less legitimate sideline job.

    Uniforms are cool, I especially like the beret.
    However they make my bum look big in them :(
