Oh yeah CCP is so hardcore aren't they. What angers me the most is I didn't even see this coming. I do wonder if that red skin-tight latex-looking outfit in the screenshots from the wincarnation demo will be avaliable at any point, an if so how long it takes before they ban that. But then again, wincarnation won't be anything like anyone imagines right now. Oh no, it's going to be so bad you wonder if the demo was from the same thing, or if they created it separately to make it look like something close the players wanted. And btw how can we possibly expect exotic dancers in bars now? That'll be another thing only for the demo... or well, there probably won't be any bars at all, and if there are they'll only serve quafe. 'Cause you know what goes on in those things right? Drinking! Omg! (and that's normal quafe, not quafe ultra or anything 'cuz that's like teh drugz!)
But we all know CCP doesn't care. Their goal of making the "ultimate sci-fi mmo" has not been present in anyone remotely importad to gamedesign for years now. It's all about making money. I dare you to be surprised if it turns ut you have to microtransation yourself a "station pass" to be able to "walk in station". CCP won't be sawyed even if 50k subscribers leave the game over night (which we all know will not happen). Heck, they'd probably see that as a positive thing. "Omg finally those annoying ppl went away!" The only thing, THE only thing, that could possibly change CCP's mind about anything, is if something-like 50k non -eve players say "change [feature] and we'll pay".

I havnt read through every single post on this thread, so my response to the op's question may have already been said.
Ask yourself this question:
Does the lack of a shirt add or detract from the 'image' and 'feel' of what Eve is?
Eve is dark. Eve is dangerous. Eve is.... Eve.
Do bouncing exposed boobies add to that? Or does dark clothing covered characters add to it?
It is a photographers interpretation of the harsher 'look' that I believe CCP is trying to project with Eve. CCP wont be introducing the Funky Chicken Dance emote or pink polkadot walls into the game for the very same reason.
Its my belief that is why CCP made the change. It has absolutely nothing to do with them wanting to add puritan values or restricting our freedoms.

Bad decision all the way around. Even the initial 'bikini' was less revealing than much of the clothing that is in several mainstream fantasy games at current.
Serious failure CCP. Keep your morality out of the sandbox. I mean seriously since when is a bikini clad female more offensive than murder, betrayal, theft, sabotage, terrorism, genocide, slavery etc... all of which are inherent to Eve.
I mean seriously? Exotic Dancers have been in the game for years. The Elite Slave icon wears nearly nothing. Many of the original Gal clothing was COMPLETELY TRANSPARENT.
0/10 CCP.

Originally by: Thuul'Khalat Blame the Americans. Seriously.
It is not CCPs morals that are being imposed, but American "morals" The kind where decapitation ang graphic violence hardly raises an eyebrow, but nudity causes havoc and will scar youngsters for life.
CCP wants a Teen ERSB rating on EVE, and as such have no choice but to cater to this madness.
Yeah, the whole nation freaks out when there is nipple in TV.
But it's ok to show TV series and movies all day long that show million different way to kill a man.
USA needs to get laid. Seriously.
All of the above is so true. I'm American. This is a good and often a very annoying thing. We are not all the same. However, those of use who DON'T think this way are in the minority and thus can't change these things yet. Remember, the U.S. was founded by Puritans. People so uptight the British kicked them out. (That was a joke. You should be laughing right now.) Wait till the U.S. is as old as the rest of the countries in the world, then MAYBE we will loosen up.
Till then I would like to hear why CCP made this change to the character creator. I disagree with it. But it will not affect my play at all. It would simply be interesting to hear why such a conservative approach to character creation has occurred with such a liberal company.

I assumed it was because the bra is terribly basic and badly rendered and obviously not designed to be seen outside the CC. Im fully expecting better stuff like that later on. Not sure what CCP think though.

sue them for what exactly? being more modestly dressed than some of the Asian MMOs that are marketed in the US and Europe?
and seriously if they wanted to avoid lawsuits they would have simply stuck to a AO rateing for the game (or not gotten into game developement in the first place considering they were sued for haveing corpes in the game then announcing (as a joke) that one of the developers was making a corps launcher that worked like the snowball launcher.
.end of line.

Well that reason is not obvious to me, where's your evidence?
I know at least some Americans play other MMOs with boobs in them without any problem.
So why should this game be any different?
I'm wondering if it more a courtesy to a few countries on religious grounds, like women covering up. That's assuming people from those religions play this game. That my best guess so far.

This is me giving a ****.
and also, probably has something to do with EVE being rated T for Teen. Yes, silly hm. Less skin, the better to skirt the ESRB with. Murder and genocide are cool though, that fits within the confines of the globalist message.

If it's to do with rating then it does not give much faith in CCP not even knowing what they can add as content. I checked on another site it does show a rating of 12, which is kind of low considering the average age was supposed to be 28 some time back.
The actual game mechanics and the kinds of things this game teaches, I find also strange that the rating is set so low.

Heh, don't know where you all get your information about the USA being a bunch of Puritan religious zealots that cringe at the sight of skin. Maybe it's like that in some backwater rural areas but for the most part, especially in the big city's, Americans are very liberal and open minded about showing and seeing skin.
Hollywood movies, TV shows, billboards, posters, magazines, etc. in general show a lot more skin than you'll ever see in this game. Sport's Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, Victoria's Secret, etc. are classic examples to say the least.
I live in Southern California, USA, two blocks from the beach and it's nothing but T and A everywhere. Go out night clubbing and you'll see lot's of females scantily clad showing lot's of skin, etc. I could go on but I think you get the point.
This decision by CCP isn't about morality since the game content clearly isn't moral. It's about them not giving us the freedom of choice and us not being able to choose how we want our characters represented in this supposedly sandbox game.
Will I rage quit this game? No. Am I very disappointed? Yes. Will this decision affect the future of Eve? Maybe.
This is a game that is filled with a lot of diverse very mature content and players should have the freedom to express that with their avatars however they see fit.

Which kind of makes a nonsense out of the rating system, you would have thought CCP would have been a bit more responsible than that.

Did you see the input sockets on the back of your avatar in Character Creation?

You do know that you're naked when you're in your pod, right?

Naked in the pod is true, but you can't see into the pod so the pod is effectively your clothes.
Just saying!

So as far as I can tell the prevailing defense of CCP removing one of the already very limited options in the new character creator is that being shirtless promotes the objectification of women.
Really?!
Would these white knights therefore contend that cultures that require there women to be completely covered up do not objectify women?
I oppose this change because it removes options, for characters of both genders. To assume that I oppose it out of some disturbed fascination with pixelated breasts is an insulting stereotype of me, and actually betrays the fact that these people are themselves objectifying women.

Well if you had to cover one up and did not cover the other up, then you would be accused of being sexist. Funny old world.

I hope you have some basis for saying this is because of the objectification of women and are not just assuming CCP's stance. I stand by my assumtion that the undergarments on the CC model were just to avoid having to render nipples and not because CCP is being prude. CCP are a group of erotic adventurers of the most depraved kind. Fact. They just want time to sort out the rendering. |

Link to your "Fact"?
I don't pretend to know what the thinking at CCP is, and if you read my post carefully you will see that I did not in fact state that I thought it was the reason.
What I actually said was that I had noticed most of the "Yay! CCP is making everyone wear shirts" crowd is defending the action by claiming that shirtless women somehow objectifies them.

In the meantime, the level of outrage expressed on the forums indicates that the microPLEX market for string bikinis will be a big earner for CCP.
