Are we ever going to get full character recustomization?

Its only after several months of play that I finally realize that my favourite fantasy girl has a jaw that is alittle too manly for my tastes. It bugs me so bad.

I can shoot lightning. I can end the lives of many. I possess the wealth of nations. But I cannot have a little cosmetic surgery.

Now of course I don't expect this service to be free, maybe for a price of a plex?

Full character recustomization has never been a feature in EVE and i don't think it ever will be. At least not for free.

What we had in the past was due to bugs or character creator engine change.


Perhaps who knows.. we might have a cosmetic surgery estabilishment in the future ^^

not 100% true we did (before the new avatars) have the portrait swap where you could change the look of a character as much as possible within the confines of the bloodline. this did cost real money to do.

but I personally would like the option to change some body structure, as I have a feeling that my character may not look as good when walking around as I initially thought. (thin face)

Sorry but file “forumsig.GIF” is currently unavailable please come back later…… like in a year or so.

There was actually a short period of time after the new character creator was introduced when you could do a full resculpt for free. CCP hinted at the possibility of this coming back in some form several times in the past.

with the new graphic weirdness in CQ I'd like to do some breast reduction surgery on my ladies or get a better selection of support options in the bra department.

Seriously. I just came back to the game after 6 months to find that the chest I made with the creator has been given unauthorized 'augmentations' in both the mass and perk departments. What gives?

All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain。

We can dream.

It is funny though that we, in Eve, have the technology to live in space, create clones, build futuristic weapons of mass destruction, explore wormholes, and travel at warp speed, yet somewhere along the line we just totally forgot about plastic surgery.

I could use a little butt reduction myself.

The character creator is pretty basic right now. Better than it was at launch, though. So far we have had a remake with each update. I'd like to think it will be improved even more and we get another shot at recustomization.

What do you mean, get it?

You had it.

Next one will cost you at the NEX store, I'm thinking.

OP, you've only been in this game for 2 months, just recycle your alt and try again.

girl, you are beautiful, dont let anyone tell you otherwise. You should be happy with the features Eve gave you and learn to accept yourself for who you are. Blink

Why thank you *blows kisses everywhere*

Well. This is an alt. My main is so hideous I dare not link her.

Also while an avatar may look nice in a portrait, captains quarters are another thing entirely. Your avatar may not turn out the same in incarna content as it does in the character creator.

My main has a terrible brow ridge, so while I am not a sims-in-space fangirl, I'd rather not hear people sniggering about the cro-magnon chick as I pass by on an errand.

The UI framework is all there, I highly doubt it would be difficult to implement - although a restriction to bloodlines would be expected. Though technically, if they were to describe it to be 'Cosmetic Surgery', there should be nothing preventing a Caldari changing their appearance to that of a Gallente...

The horror... The horror...

Exactly. One thing that still annoys me is that the new bloodlines in no way resemble the old ones. I still want a bloodline change for ISK or PLEX or whatever so I can be a Sebiestor. I picked my character's bloodline because wanted to look like a spanish/latin girl with big eyes, this is quite impossible with the new Vherokior looks.

I feel cheated and I find it quite rude to be forced something upon me without any discussion or options to change it. One big flaw in the new character creating thing imo.

Noticed earlier today that I still have one said resculpt left. think I will save it for when people will be seeing me.

Would be willing to pay obscene amounts of money to be able to swap bloodlines/race/whatever. How was I to know a year ago that all Amaarian men are, as a rule, old and grotesque? Where was that in the race description? Why didn't they forewarn me of the epic ugliness and bad skin? My character has the body of a greek god and the head of an old man.

I found the customization depressingly limiting. Like I was constantly being forced into a box. I thought maybe my imagination and artistic skills were simply lacking, as usual, until I got into the game and realised that all Amaarian men really do look the same.
