I would like to be able to fit robotic arms, legs, hands, facial stuff, or whatever to my character. Does anyone else think this would be cool?

I also still want recustomization for isk or aurum.

Why would you have robotic limbs when you can just get a shiny new clone with all it's original ones intact in the time it takes for a thrasher to lock you?


Also, anything that adds more customisation and racial diversity is okay in my book.

Because robotic arms have more functionality.

I can put an ipad in my arm now

I can see benefits for it.

Role-Play Reasoning: A capsuleer medical facility malfunctioned today, resulting in the loss of limb information for some 1,100 capsuleer clones. The corporation responsible for the facility has offered to provide prosthetic limbs for all those affected.

There is also the cosmetic / functional reasoning why capsuleers may want robotic limbs instead.

Who need an iPad, when you have a direct neural interface through your cybernetic implants?

Certainly fits in with the cybernetic monocles. Besides, what's a good sci-fi story without a little touch of the ol' cyberpunk? Gallente, for example, would be all over random cybernetics under the "freedom of expression" thing they have going on.

True question is - who the hell needs an iPad at all ?!?!

Two possibilities exists: Either we are alone in the universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.

In a sci-fi future, damn straight for cyber-implants.

A little bit of cyberpunk influence, which I like. Not to mention, people would more than likely get cybernetic implanted limbs for increased strength, speed, or things of that nature.

If this will divert the art team's attention from that nvidia graphic overhaul, then by god no! I respect if some people want incarna and those features, but that can seriously wait considering what we have coming our way in space.

Maybe I want to be a cyberpunk.

With a spiked mohawk and a tophat.

I support this as well as anything that increases the pathetic array of customization options we currently have.

I demand more hats.

That is all.













Robotic hats would be acceptable as a compromise.
