Look, I was reluctant to even bring this up, since I know it's a touchy subject for a lot of people who would prefer the resources be invested elsewhere. But... are there any plans in the works to add more clothes to the New Eden Store?

I can only speak for myself, but I'd prefer some more... uh... graceful options: longer dresses and the like (it seems like every dressy clothing option available to me is based on a '60s-era Star Trek uniform). I don't need to be the Childlike Empress or anything, but some elegant, floor-length PrincessLeia-style, light-up, or even Arwen type options might be interesting.

Safe answer is yes.

There was a recent workshop of sorts conducted on TS with CSM and some Devs attended to field the ideas and questions of numerous players. You can read a little about that here: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=5292462#post5292462

Also numerous other threads on the topic of avatars and avatar clothing buried in the depths of GD, features and ideas.

As for what we'll get, and when, we'll just have to wait and see.

I laughed at how close your comparison to the star trek uniform actually was. I've heard the comparison before but have never actually seen it. Those other options you gave though... I guess it's the same as the best/worst looking ship threads, everyone has different taste.

I imagine something a little more like these would be nice

1 I think any sleek looking dress would fit into the game well
2
3<--- More for those who really want to stand out, I think it looks cool though
4 I like the colors of this one, but it feels a little too...busy, still pretty
5 Another sleek black but the open leg will never go out of style.
6 And of course, for those long, 50+ jump trips on holiday. Lol

The real problem is that 'cut' of dress is essentially the basis of every "dressy" item we have. The sweater-dress kind of thing I'm wearing right now is crafted along those lines, and there are 3 other 'Star Trek Onesies' that share that same model as the one I linked, just with a different skin.

Empress Jamyl I, by the way, seems to wear a very tasteful looking dress. Surely there are many Amarrian women who attempt to match her style?

*Edit*

I really like 1, 3 and 4 of your suggestions (couldn't get 2 to load).

*Bad Idea process start up 2.65*


Ignoring completely destroying the Market for clothing and apparel, the fact that if you wanted someone to see how your new BAMF shirt everyone would need to have downloaded the same addon. How would you feel about Steamwork shop clothing? IE. Free Community based add-ons/packs that give you the customized look you want? Oops

CCP could create a whole new industry and find a use for all those frozen corpses.

Simply allow us to tan the corpses and make our own fashion accessories with the leather. Sell us patterns and open up a new manufacturing section with up to 11 sweatshop slots.

Well ... we can make it happen.

What would you like to have?

I'm pretty sure I can tell you upfront
what will work and what won't.

Nice looking fashion ideas, and yes something different for those times when we are docked or planet side to be able to get out of the pod into something that would make us feel good about ourselves.

I realize, we all do that this would had made Walking in Stations quite a trend of showing off our indiviuality as capsuleers. Sadly, it's not gonna happen anytime soonSadSadSadSadSadSad.

You don't need WiS for that.
You just creative talent and imagination.

Personally I'd like them to change the NEX store preview to ADD different outfit pieces to the mannequin so I can see how they fit together before buying. Rather than only being able to see one piece at a time. And change the in-game preview too.

Because I'm not spending the money just to discover that the skirt doesn't go together with the top.

Carbon would melt your PC trying to render such a fancy dress.

But yes would be nice though.

EVE just needs something like the Steam workshop. Let the community do the work.

I think a good idea for those whod like to link some clothing options might need to simply ask "what needs to be in place within in the Ccp cyber structure in order for this to become an option"

then simply crowd fund for the parts with the condition that some better clothing options will be available

Ccp get some more resources that will assist with their other game related issues issues and you and those who would be drawn to the game for its excellent character generations system will be able to talk fashion and maybe even create your own in the future to sell as items

a win win so to speak Smile

Like a digital bimbo. Or, a bull dyke. Nothing in between.
Some guy musta designed it FOR us...or him.
Either, what he'd like to look at, or what he'd look like
if he was a space woman.

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

Did anyone else have to read that a half dozen times before it became clear? Or is it just me?
