give us choice and we'll give you our TL;DR


Yes, please more choice. I cant even remove the pants with this dress on but I can have a skirt which is half a pixel closer to the knees...
Please stop griping about sexism, they already PG13 the avatards enough, now you want them wearing military outfits? What is the point? Is there anyone out there that that walks around their own house with actual clothes on(CQ is your home)?
Also, why does less clothing = more sexism? Its not like the female avatards are getting paid 75 cents on the dollar.


I didn't actually say that wearing less clothing is necessarily sexist... the specific issue i had... was with the military shirts... i thought it would be fun to put my avatars who are in faction war into a uniform... you know just to add a bit of something... and the guys are catered for brilliantly... and the female avatars get a really horrible looking cropped jacket for no apparent reason that i can fathom... just look at the difference between the two... i wouldn't dress a puppy in it... if indeed i was the kind of demented individual who would dress their pets in human clothing... although come to think of it body armor might look quite cool on a guard dog... anyway...

yeah sexism.. well you know the point has already been made but isnt it a tad sexist that we can decide what size breasts we want for our avatars and as someone put earlier the male avatars are all 'round underneath'... Blink

objectifying women while having the guys look like normal people that don't exist to be sexy is kinda sexist


I agree... but that may well be a very uphill argument to have on the internet Sad

I think I look quite alright in this military style shirt, thank you very much.

But yeah, your whole OP was based on fallacy and what you're saying in this post isn't what you were saying in the OP.

Welp, last time I checked breasts weren't genitalia. Blink

No, it's called putting together a dreadful, hard to follow OP that consists of nothing more than a gender-equality wardrobe rant, which I debunked in a earlier post (that was the fallacy, btw). The only other thing you've said, which everyone would agree with anyway, is that we should have more general wardrobe options.

Sorry OP but this is hilarious. Nobody sees you in your captain's quarters. If you think they'll have problems getting your T-shirt right, imagine the difficulty in adding an "rpg" part to the game...walking around with other players walking around...I imagine that's what you have in mind with "rpg"....somebody shoot me.

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

He's not though, he's playing an MMO sandbox. That means you can play it as an RPG if you want to, but you don't have to. You can play it as any variety of things, even an on-rails shooter if you want.

Being bad at roleplaying means you are good at being normal.

Your mustache touched me in a bad spot. That wasn't normal.

Oh, CCP, you wanna make monies?

Drop a small SDK for making character models. Let players submit designs for the NES. Put them in after checking for areolas n' such, and give the player's main account a split.

It's a player driven market, after all. And it'll solve every discrepancy in this thread.
