Admit it, if there were cigars in the NeX store, you'd have to buy one.

Yes, you would have a cigar or a pipe in the portrait, and it would be awesome.

Nothing says classy space general like a cigar, and nothing says "I'm rich *****" like a pipe.

And those monocle wearing posers? They get a long slow blow of smoke into their face (/blow-smoke-in-face emote included when multiplayer stations open up).

CCP, I hope you're listening.

yes, cigarettes and cigars would be great.

Not going to happen, I am afraid, the nonsmoker lobby is simply to powerful.

On the other hand, Iceland is not the US and CCP might suprise us with hairy balls....Smile

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

I can think of a great place where you should insert your idea.

Icelandic heath-nutsies are among the worst. They're considering banning the sale of cigarettes and making them a prescription-only product.

I'd like a party hat for new year, and a Santa hat for Xmas.

And for Caldari players, it would come with a big sign on the back saying "SURGEON GENERAL'S WARNING: Smoking Causes Lung Cancer, Heart Disease, Emphysema, and May Complicate Pregnancy."

Because nothing says "I'm f***ing rich" - to the Caldari at least - like a corporate sponsorship logo and medical warning, all in one!

I'm sure a CQ Bong would be one of the best selling items in virtual good history.

In terms of a good Cuban, always been a fan of the Partagas D4 myself. Medium body, good construction. Ya get some floral tones on the finish. Averages about 10 bucks a stick. That being said, my usual smoke is in the 5-6 dollar range. For a non-cuban stick, the Oliva G natural corona is solid for the money, and the La Traviata Cameroon Churchill is a great value, good flavor, long burn and (usually) well constructed.

Its a good Idea, So we can be sure CCP wont do it.

Next they wont do it cause it might run afoul of the ESRB rating or whatever ratings in your country.

One thing to have say fake drugs in a game, another thing to see the use visually represented legally in many places.

Its a one of those fine lines games need to thread the needle on if they want to include something.
