New Apparel...Or not, because it's not seeded?

Hey CCP,

I'm loving the new apparel I see on the market with the Kronos release. And I'd love to buy it. But I can't...So I have a question. :)

How can you make a bunch of new, interesting apparel for us to purchase for our avatars and then not seed it on the NES? I only see 2-3 different colors from the 10 or so showing up on the market.

For those of us that actually spend AUR and ISK on this kind of thing (and I know many of the playerbase don't care about apparel), are you just going to tease us with all the new styles and colors by having the items show up on the Market but never actually available from anywhere?

You do want us to spend money on this stuff, right? Or, why would you pay your artists to create the assets?

Many thanks from someone hopelessly addicted to fashionable capsuleers,

~Lei

Things that are going places:

I just undocked for the first time and someone challenged me to a duel. Wat do?

I thoroughly anticipate large amounts of hate for this thread but being pretty should be top of everyone's priority list here.

Because reasons.

It is on the NES, is it not? If you want it to appear on market you have to wait until people buy the items and then sell them. Considering there's little to no reason to buy of NES for direct resale, you'll probably have to wait a while for someone to decide they don't like their shirt anymore.

If they make a robe sized version of the curator coats, they'd have a sale.

Its not on the NES, otherwise I wouldn't have made the thread.

That's the major idea behind my question. Why make all these new art assets and then not even put them on the NES? Do they not want people purchasing them?

I'm more curious on why they have "dresses" yet still require bottoms.

Mr. Puuntai, those "dresses" have exposed crotches.

What apparel? If there is anything interesting I may even consider logging into EVE.

Still has underwear on, not much of an issue. Plus who doesn't like relaxing without pants on Blink.

This isn't the 1930s, it seems a bit odd that you can't have anything showing above the knee. CCP should know their audience, pervs and neckbeards with female characters. Capitalize on that to improve profit.

Lastly it isn't like the books/lore doesn't have a bunch of references to zero-g sex, gallentean prostitutes, and other unspeakables. In-game wise it is about killing, drugs, etc. I don't think their ESRB will be affected much by a little leg.

"Rocket" dress is nowhere to be seen - any idea if it's faction reward, loot drop or what?

p.s. Thanks for adding apparel, CCP! I see there is still hope for EVE to have real avatar content - somewhere in the next decade.

A couple of them, like the glossy black variant are in the NES for 800 AUR each I believe. Glossy black, and Blue IIRC.
