From the Rubicon release, can all pod kills result in the corpse shouting 'I'll be back' in local?

Just a thought ... Blink

Shiny.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

I gotta admit, that arm looks bad ass.

Sees new vanity item that does nothing because no game play mechanic has been added to allow any sort of interaction that would make cybernetic arms anything more than another monocle, shrugs and walks away.

It looks like CCP is researching methods of implementation and opportunities for paid expansions.

With the ability to clone entire bodies, why do capsuleers need prosthetics?

I won't even get into scars and tatoos...

A prosthesis implies a replacement, that looks more like an enhancement to me. Augmented, not replaced.

Also, until we see some actual Avatar content, this just seems like a kick in the teeth.

Not everything that happens to capsuleers results in death and cloning. Imagine taking a fair amount of damage on your capsule that causes injury to the pod-person but does not kill them. Clones are expensive as well as prolly fairly unpleasant to transfer to.

Up until last week i hadnt been podded for over 3 years, so that's enough time to adorne myself with tattoos etc and well as maybe get into a few knife/gun fights on stations that might have resulted in a few scars or limb loss.

It doesn't even look like a "prosthetic arm" it looks like something painted on an existing arm, I understand this is probably a limitation of the character models but it just looks like another tattoo.

We need a big arm with lots of doodads and stuff on it like a Borg arm.

I want one with a drink dispenser.

A panda walks into a café. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and proceeds to fire it at the other patrons.

"Why?" asks the confused, surviving waiter amidst the carnage, as the panda makes towards the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder.

"Well, I'm a panda," he says. "Look it up."
The waiter turns to the relevant entry in the manual and, sure enough, finds an explanation. "Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."

Are you saying this expansion needs more pandas?
