Fredfredbug4 Eve Defence Force Tribal Band 808	Posted - 2013.04.30 03:29:00 - [31] - Quote Part of why I miss the old avatars was because the old Gallente were flamboyantly futuristic and weird to the point they seemed alien, and that was why they were awesome. Now we look pretty bland. I tried to restore some of the craziness and Cyberpunk of the old Gallente with the intentionally mismatched hair color to the outfit and weird facial tattoo but it's just not the same... Just look at the difference. Admittedly the new avatars look less like creepy zombies but at the expense of so much awesome... http://www.eve-avatars.com/?Fredfredbug4 Watch Fred Fred Frederation and stop cryptozoologist! Fight against the brutal genocide of fictional creatures across New Eden! Is that a metaphor? Probably not, but the fru-fru- people will sure love it!

Still not the same as when my clothes were made out of some clearly synthetic material, and I had some odd green implant over my right eye but hey. I'm pretty happy Akirei no longer has to wear this.

Tavin Aikisen Revenent Defence Corperation Ishuk-Raata Enforcement Directive 175	Posted - 2013.05.02 04:50:00 - [38] - Quote I'm sure all that awesome character art was on the way, until a large portion of the player base cried "spaceships"... Now we're left with the incomplete clothing options, useless captain's quarters and a lack of imagination. Remember this. Trust your eyes, you will kill each other. Trust your veins, you can all go home. -Cold Wind

Xen Solarus Inner 5phere 405	Posted - 2013.05.02 06:07:00 - [40] - Quote This is a picture from a new game called "mars", pretty sure it has nothing to do with EvE. I also imagine its from a high-graphics cut scene. EvE has plenty of those, with avatars that look loads better. This guy has just linked it directly from steam. Post with your main, like a BOSS!
Jacob Holland Weyland-Vulcan Industries 143	Posted - 2013.05.02 07:58:00 - [41] - Quote While EVE isn't strictly cyberpunk it certainly has its roots there. We have corporations which have become far more important than nation states, individuals with demigod-like abilities, the smallest financial considerations of the wealthy being beyond the dreams of avarice for the U^2C... Certainly I miss some of the "punk" aspects of the old art style... And I want my Qui Gon Jinn hair back.

Now we're left with the incomplete clothing options, useless captain's quarters and a lack of imagination. By the way I just want to clarify something. This final sentence is not meant to be critical of CCP. What we have so far in terms of character art, clothing and CQ is great. And the upcoming extra-vehicular content was exciting. However it's certainly unfinished and this does render CQ a completely useless feature other than cosmetic appeal (or nicer trailers). And this is coming from a player who will walk around the quarters to physically click on services rather than directly access the neocom on the side of the screen. Remember this.

The only things i miss are some of the old clothing and backgrounds of pirate factions. http://www.eve-avatars.com/?Herr%20Esiq My character just looks like he gotten older and a bit meaner.

Gelatine EverBroke Geeks 9	Posted - 2013.05.07 12:29:00 - [50] - Quote Vertisce Soritenshi wrote: I think the OP answered their own question with that link. Who thinks that looks good? Gaudy, poor taste...it looks horrid. No wonder they changed the style. I agree that the OP's link isn't to my taste, but to be honest I expected a lot more stuff for people to buy from the noble store than there is; for people who do find that kind of thing to their taste I think there should be choice. That said, I'm not fond of the idea that devs work on out of pod experience stuff atm. I've said somewhere on these forums before that a system much like Valve's user content for Team Fortress 2 would be a great asset to EVE online in my opinion. I wouldn't have thought it would be that hard to skin a standard t-shirt, add corp/alliance tattoos and portrait backgrounds to the store for a start. Additional income for CCP for little risk, additional income for the content creators (provided CCP follow Valve's model.) If successful, it might give CCP some incentive to expand what users could create for more complicated things that would keep the OP happy....maybe.
De'Veldrin East India Ore Trade The East India Co. 1389	Posted - 2013.05.07 13:52:00 - [51] - Quote Tavin Aikisen wrote: I'm sure all that awesome character art was on the way, until a large portion of the player base cried "spaceships"... Now we're left with the incomplete clothing options, useless captain's quarters and a lack of imagination. As with many of the other things people complain about in this game, we did it to ourselves. CCP was working on the character generator and then the player base set fire to the statue in Jita and CCP balled up their plans, dusted off their plans, and decided they didn't need the headache. NOW you want to ***** because they did what we forced them to do? Too little, too late. HTFU. Eve Online: The full-contact sport for your brain.
Inxentas Ultramar Ultramar Independent Contracting Home Front Coalition 440	Posted - 2013.05.07 14:40:00 - [52] - Quote Unfortunately I started this game when the new CC was already in place. As far as sculpting goes, I consider EVE's CC to be one of the best. You can make really nice characters with them, and although things like hairstyles will ensure a few people will look alike, there is great variety in the characters we create. These cool additions should come back tho, I would love the inclusion of more visors and weird electronic cyberpunk elements. The initial Incarna rage was mainly about these objects being so damn expensive right? I'm sure people would have liked vanity items better if they didn't have such a crazy pricetag.

Meryl SinGarda Phoibe Enterprises Project Wildfire 792	Posted - 2013.05.07 14:51:00 - [54] - Quote I agree with a few of the other people in this thread. Don't get upset over having fewer character options after the display of spaceship-rage back in 2011. You wanted more spaceship content, so deal with it. Meanwhile I'll be waiting, while simultaneously enjoying my EVE experience, regardless. CEO of B.U.T.T.
Mother Drone Transcendent Breed 0	Posted - 2013.05.07 15:15:00 - [55] - Quote I'm not a friend of this (not so) new character generator. I loved my old picture ... classic Gallente Jin-Mei highborn wearing her hair ornaments with pride. Today? More like a Minmatar with dread locks. Back then i had hope, that CCP would let us keep our old pics. Then they deleted the old pics. It was still possible to log in without creating a new avatar. Then we were forced to create a new one. Amarr pictures were great, Minmatar and Gallente too. Caldari were ... well just Caldari Today everyone looks equal and there is no difference between the people from different empires. That's how i used to look like: http://evefaces.com/?Mother%20Drone
Andrea Griffin 383	Posted - 2013.05.07 15:44:00 - [56] - Quote The new Character Creator is an amazing piece of technology. I know of no other game which has such exceptional capabilities in this area. It's unfortunate that the different races feel so similar, and I really do miss some of the weird but cool sci-fi stuff the old system used to have. Embedded circuits. Strange visors. Futuristic sci-fi clothing. A lot of the clothing in Eve feels dark and gothic - which is cool in its own way but it doesn't feel very futuristic. If nothing else, the default clothing options for each race should have a unique style. CCP Sreegs is my favorite developer.

Dersen Lowery Laurentson INC StructureDamage 487	Posted - 2013.05.07 17:26:00 - [58] - Quote Sign me up for more exotic/alien/futuristic options and fewer t-shirts (seriously, what's with that? Guild Wars 2 has hoodies, too. Do people want to look like they just walked out of Aeropostale in every possible medium?). Not that I expect them any time soon, but it would be far more immersive, and consonant with the huge amount of EVE lore. Besides, we're impossibly rich, power-mad demigods. We should be able to look the part. Proud founder and member of the Belligerent Desirables.
