So you try to give the NEX-store a right to exist ? After denying us walking in station and stick to walking in prison there is no way to show the 500Gé¼ boots to others. That's why you made this .... feature ... .
Btw, you know we pay for this game on a monthly base aren't you ? Also many people have more the 1 accounts and so aren't that motivated to buy extra boots for all ther chars. |

We slowly start getting into player interactions with in WIS
Automated Emots would be nice at this would show a little personality of the avatar vs just scratching their head
Even if the Emot would be the general demeanour. (ie Confindent, Unsure, Aggressive)
Your Pirate or hard worker would show aggressiveness with shoulders back and head forward. (warning your postures crews up that way)
Your a CEO Confidence Showing off you body trunk more so
Your a Care Bear you shoulders guard you chest, your head avoid eye contact, you don't want to threaten anyone.
Time to play with motion capture technology! I agree with several people: CCP needs to focus most of eve's recources on FIS, but the development of WIS still needs to continue, just as a slower and more efficient pace. In eve I wish to be more than just a machine. |

Why?
Probably because this was something that was either complete or nearly complete and they decided to add it. It doesn't hurt in any way, I will probably almost never use it. But why not?
Looking at all the other work they have done, this, while very minor and not game affecting, is ok. It is almost on par with custom decals on your ship, which will be great for all of about 1 week, then everyone will have them and everyone will say 'meh'.

We need more of them :) Everyone gets shot, it's just a matter of whether you use hostile weapons or the "friendly weapon".
In EVE, everyone is a dude regardless of avatar anyway so they all get pew pew, not spoo spoo.

This would be nice except that there's no variety in clothing. The only way to fix that is to ditch Aurum and the Nex store, get a few artists producing clothing full time, and allowing players to manufacture it.
If you don't do that, you may as well give up on WiS because we all will look the same forever.
Edit: Fix your damn forums. |

Sup, Brony?
Anyways....
A random, OK feature. Doesn't really distract from anything and the idea of "avatar spinning" is kinda fun. It is also a small, decent step towards making character design matter.
But yea, the dev blog its self was terrible. Just "Hey it's a thing! LOOK!" post. I couldn't have written anything better in the least, but I'm only paid to give nonconstructive criticism. |

Seriously, I don't imagine this took too much work to make happen. So I doubt we're missing out on a bunch of extra features to to make this work. You people b**** and moan too much. No wonder they were only posting one blog a month. I like these constant updates from CCP. This isn't game changing or game breaking. It's just a little extra added coolness that plenty of us have wanted.
If you don't like it, don't open it. You're not losing anything. Quit b****ing.
Anyway, awesome sauce Guard. Now if we just had some more choices in clothing to chose from :P |

I find this sort of thing irritating. I accept that it *may* have been almost complete before CCP's "change in direction", but as soon as you see that people have been working on a minor aesthetic improvement like this it rings alarm bells.
I mean c'mon... this... as a dev blog? Let's put it into perspective from a player's point of view, I'll use other aesthetically related dev blogs for comparison:
Dev blog comes out announcing the new nebula backgrounds, it sounds great and it will effect everyone who plays the game (with the exception of hard core traders who just sit in stations, but they're a weird, if very wealthy, lot). This is generally well received by the players.
Dev blog comes out announcing changes to the UI allowing scaling. It's generally well received because it's potentially tremendously helpful for a large number of people.
And then we get this... A minor feature (in comparison) which will effect a handful of players who want to gawk at the pretty pixels of another player's avatar. It's not on a par with new ships, massive changes to how pos's are run, cap ship balancing, hybrid weapon balancing, player owned customs offices... etc.. etc.. so why announce it in it's own dev blog as if it is?
I'm not saying it shouldn't be implemented, I'm not saying it's a waste of time (although, depending on how long it took, you have to question whether the resources could have been better spent elsewhere at the moment), but I am saying that presenting it as a dev blog was a bad decision. Many players are still sensitive about the whole micro-transaction debacle CCP blundered into, the last thing CCP want to do is tear up the patches of trust that have started to grow back on their player base's confidence in them. Presenting something as a feature which is clearly linked to custom clothing, and as such micro-transactions at this time was not as sensitive as it might have been imo. |

meh really, it's hardly an awesome groundbreaking feature, but it is something that's kinda part of the feature set if you're going to have customisable avatars.
Best of all it's done CORRECTLY in that it's there for those that give a monkeys, and for those that don't it has zero impact on their ongoing gameplay and can be safely ignored. I can seriously see this as having replaced the standard character portrait on showinfo screen by default with no way to turn it off, given some of the somewhat dubious decisions taken in recent times regarding ramming new stuff down people throats purely because it's new and shiny, grats for a sensible deployment CCP. |

Ah well, nobody expected you to give up entirely on Space Barbies, and this is a positive step in making them more viable.
But remember, it's the SHIPS we really want to customize. If you'd focused on that in the first place, you'd be selling Aurum like Ikea sells cheap plywood by now.

Hey CCP dudes that made this posible... good job...
keep it up... just keep on pushing little by little... i like incarna but its way to early for it to be introduced...
perhaps after 18 months computer tech will have caught up enough to support the brilliant environment that i know you want to give us and all the nay Sayers will be eating crow...
just want to say good job and keep it comming when its ready to be delivered... |

Uhm, wow. So this is how CCP is stil trying to NeX us into useless clothing of RL$??
This really is now space barbies!
If you are going WiS into space barbies at least give us PvP! Let us dress the other players in unflattering manners! You could introduce all sorts of clothing that would be degrading or have phrases meant to belittle the wearer!
So you couldn't gank your oponent on the Rancer gate? No problem! Go into your character viewer and make them wear a "CareBear' shirt and a hat that looks like a duck!! See how they react next time the dock and see themselves in that outfir in their CQs! Now that would make the NeX store make some $$!
Seriously CCP, just open the door and let us really react. Stuff like this just makes you look even lamer to the rest of the gaming world.

While you're at it, why not link up Second Life to EvE Online in addition to Dust514 and have entire communities living on the planets? Then we can all walk around strip clubs in Jita with our soon-to-be pants-less avatars, getting lap dances from female avatars which are actually just strange men who intentionally do female voices suspiciously well.
Hell, let's go all out on this one! Throw in some houses and maybe the ability to put your CQ in one, then allow other people inside to look at your corpse trophies hanging on the walls, along with some paintings of your favorite ships hanging up as well! Don't forget to give us coffee tables and couches so we can all sit around looking at the walls and each other while sipping on champagne and, of course, getting lap dances from private contractors and stripper corporations. And why not have a closet with all of your micro-transacted clothing hanging on spiffy coat hangars which, for a small micro-transacted fee, you can have made out of various valuable metals! Diamond-studded, gold-plated coat hangars? Yeah, I'll take 20.
AND let's get working on real distance chutes from each planet to its station, so that when you decide it's time to go back to being in a spaceship game and not a dress-up contest, you can merely walk a couple hundred thousand miles back to the station in a long tunnel! Hell, you'll even pass by hundreds if not thousands of avatars making the same trip(as long as you aren't in Minmatar space, that is)! Plenty of people to look at! Maybe you'll wave to them, or you may even say "hello!" Who knows? That's the beauty of anonymity: anything goes!
When you incorporate multi-player avatar lounges in the stations, be sure to add the ability to stick your leg out and trip people. And maybe another one to kick them when they're on the floor. |

Interesting feature, but on tis own is not quite thrilling. Beyond telling who devoted to making a full body avatar and who just randomized everything below the chest, the "fashion choices" at TQ so far are quite poor.
It makes more sense at Sisi where all the NEx stuf is avaialble from market, but provided how NEx prices are, "buying the shop" would be akin to buying a titan. Or two. Which means it's like "meh".
Read my signature. Being as expensive as a BS is not low tier: it's bloody overprized.
And by the way, I would like to know whatever happened to that demo feature where we could change our clothes without redoing the portrait... So... no affordable NEx store... no full-fledged Incarna... no new casual content... no new solo content... no new PvE content...-á
Why should I keep paying to play this game? |

While I care as little about this as the average naysayer in this thread, I think it's not worth yelling at CCP over. A) They didn't abandon Incarna 2 work the second the summer expansion hit. So some work was put into it before the refocusing. B) DUST 514 is still being made so there is bound to be some low-hanging-fruit from that effort that fits into EVE easily
I do wish is was harder to activate though, but I don't begrudge them putting it in. |

Game development NOT Vain development time
Adding POS lounges to meet in (a more interactive chat place) and POS external window views outside (to see of there are POS campers) might be considered game development for the characters .... gates are like roids, dont give in to beer camping

In breaking news, you are the content for other players!
Remember all those old space shooters where the enemies made predictable mistakes, and missions would often become easier to cheese your way through than simply shoot your way through? EVE Online has improved on every broken AI from every PvP game ever invented: they've replaced the consequential NPCs with other players who are trying to blow you up!
Remember those old trading games where you could write a spreadsheet to analyse the market and take your time about making a decision, and once you figured out that there was a stable trade route between Leesti and Lave you kinda lost interest in trade? EVE Online has replaced that with real time trading, with markets that are not so easily predictable! Now making ISK is a challenge worthy of the most advanced players!
Welcome to the sandbox of EVE Online, a world of piracy and capitalism, where you and the players around you provide the content!

Now, now, don't confuse them.
They have recently been conditioned to think that anything that shows a human body is evil and subversive.
Next thing you know you'll try telling them to stop salivating whenever they hear a bell.
Just wait and let nature take its course. Sooner or later they'll find themselves clicking on the portrait of someone that caught their attention to get a better look (as it is only human nature), and in that singular moment of insight they will suddenly realize what a dork they were today. To kill the enemy and break their toys!

Some people are better at building spaceships than they are at writing code. Some people are better at writing code than they are at reading code. Some people are better at designing virtual clothing than they are at reading or writing code (but your opinion about NeX clothes may be that they're equally bad at designing virtual clothing GÇö *titter* *snort*).
Would you really want the people who are building the parts of the game that deal with 3D models to get in to the simulation code?
I'm sure we'll hear more about faction warfare in the months to come. Just be patient. Some of the problems look easy to fix, but may actually involve several layers of spaghetti code that one of the code teams has actually been working hard on unravelling for 12 months. Any time you hear the devs talking about "carbonising" code, that's what they're doing: unravelling 8 years of spaghetti, separating it into neatly functional units, making those units part of the Carbon API (or the EVE-specific wrapper around the Carbon API or the glue that joins that to the rest of the game), and then building the improved feature from the Carbon API-based version.
This all takes time.
In the meantime, make sure you raise the issue of Faction Warfare in the Assembly Hall. The CSM will be feeding back to CCP the voices of the unwashed masses^W^W subject matter experts (in your case, the people engaged in Faction Warfare) and helping CCP focus on the priorities for the next development spurt.
Of course, when you're complaining about a portion of the game make sure you point out what's broken. Don't just say, "FW sucks" - you need to point out, "why is it possible to capture bunkers with a cloaked, AFK pilot?" The more specific you can make the example the better, especially if you include your expectations of how a feature is supposed to work.
In the meantime, enjoy the fact that you can now get some trolling value out of your ultra-expensive pants and boots.

On a related note.....
When using the capture portrait screen in character creation mode, it seems that you cannot zoom out as far as you were able to when it was first introduced. You can just about capture the head and shoulders now, but I have seen avatars that are zoomed out much further than that.
Has this been deliberately changed, or is there a way to achieve this ?

I don't know of everything the art team has planned and I don't know of any plans for race locked art assets for characters at this time, but I'll suggest it to them :)
In regards to this blog taking priority over others...that's not the accurate assumption to make. There are blogs behind this one in line that are about much bigger and more "serious" features, but there are other factors that come into play and blogs aren't published in a descending order of importance in fact. Features that get finished early sometimes get written about earlier too, not always though. Sometimes it's a matter of a healthy rhythm for blogs to come out...and although I'm mostly a follower of the "get it out and announced as soon as it's ready" school of thought, it's not much fun for anybody if for example we would push out all the biggest, most popular blog in the same week, a month prior to release
Then there are even other things. Some devs love to write blogs, some are shy...some I need to put in a headlock etc.

hehehe ... now we can see all characters in all their "beautiness". Im looking forward to it in the same way as i'm looking forward to the FiS improvements.
I think, there's nothing to complain about. Those, wo prefer FiS improvements, will get some of them, and those, wo additionally like some WiS-like improvemnts, got new CQs and the character viewer. Almost everyone is served somehow.
yes yes, i know the next raged answer ... "there are more FiS-bugs to fix!!! Waste of time!!!!!oneoneeleven" - You rarely get 100% in a community with divergent interests. It's a compromise, and i think, it's a good one.

It would be somehow interesting, if we could take off all clothes and put on something really nice and sexy, then also it would be necessary to make our own positions. That would be awsome. But it has nothing to do with eve.. still OK for me, IF.

I suppose that won't happen because there are societies out there, where public eroticism would be felt as offence. That could be too risky for a game developer. IN addition to that Second Life for example got criticised for missing youth protection in 2008, because there have been some "too free" posibilities.

A lot of us have been pushing for an end to racelocking since the initial release of the new characters back on Sisi. Originally, all bloodlines and races had access to all clothing and hairstyles. Then, little by little, they got pared down and restricted by bloodline and race, and this was opposed, but our objections weren't listened to at the time.
The racelocks are kinda... not fun. They don't give our characters the customisation options we really want to have, and - in my opinion at least - the whole Incarna system really needs to have if it's going to work. Most of all, they don't even really make sense - I'm a capsuleer who deals in a currency of which a single unit represents so much wealth it could feed a small city for several days, but I can't find a shop that'll sell me a black flight jacket? The hairstyles were even more of an upset - the "long-unkempt" hairstyle that for some reason the Amarrians and only the Amarrians get is the natural result of not cutting your hair for a while. Why can't my character grow his hair out?
(On that subject, a lot of Intaki characters who previously had long hair have been forced to make do with dreadlocks when they'd really like that hairstyle. We'd really love it if we could)
Guard, what I guess I'm saying here is... please remove the racelocks? Yeah, it's not going to be a game-changing feature that'll set the world on fire, but it'd be... nice. Just... nice. Something to show us CCP loves us people who like to spend some time on our avatar's appearence.

Thanks for the feature.
I am still waiting for more WIS, so don't stop working towards that!
I'm sure it was a pretty easy implementation to do this based on your other tech, and I've always wanted to see the 3D inserts get more and more into our User Interface.
What would be really cool and fun would be for EVE Voice to have a little video pop up come up to show you who is talking in the channel, it would be discrete and would look "transaparent" and you'd be able to put it to the side or turn it off :
What i'm talking about would be something like this below :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=71OqLwm-0rM#t=286s
You see on the lower left there's a video of the talking pilot.
Of course, the EVE user interface is pretty crowded, so I know it won't happen anytime soon before more user interface additions- but it would be freaking awesome, and it would be awesome for missions too, where the local communications would actually pop up as a little window for mission runners and they could see the person talking or the agent talking to them, etc! You could have Sansha Kuvekai talking to people in incursions and other fun interactive additions!
Do it! :)

I want space barbies. I want establishments. I want the ability to decide whether my little shop is a haven for the fashion-conscious or a dark "edgy" dive with drug deals and exotic dancers.
For me, EVE Online is about socialising just as much as it is about blowing each other up while flying spaceships. For the sociopathic vocal minority, socialising is an activity of last resort. I can understand that you view the expansion of the game into more human and social environments as a threat to your play style. For other people, it's a natural feature of the virtual world that has been missing for far too long.
CCP have made some bad decisions about prioritisation over the last year, I'm confident that they can reach a balance where Faction Warfare gets the attention it needs, and multiplayer station environments also get some development time. Note that we've gone about 18 months since the "18 months scandal", and suddenly here we are with an expansion jam-packed full of goodies. Were all these goodies suddenly conjured up in a few weeks, or were they already in progress and only waiting for art time? It would not surprise me to find that there has been substantial thinking and first-draft time spent on Faction Warfare in that 18 months.
That there is still time being spent on the space barbies side of the game indicates to me that CCP perceives that aspect of the game as being useful. As an example of pricing versus revenue, it's worth noting that various experiments done through the iTunes Application Store and Steam have shown that halving the price of an application doubles the number of customers, but revenue remains relatively constant. If that applies to the NeX, I would expect that the few people who are buying NeX items mainly as a means of trolling the general populace are delivering a substantial financial boost - remember that one only has to buy a monocle to contribute the financial equivalent of 6 months of subscriber time.
Finally, if you think that throwing more developers at a problem will help solve that problem faster, please go and read Fred Brook's "The Mythical Man Month" from cover to cover. Understand that adding more staff to a project that is already in progress inevitably introduces delays as the existing project staff bring the newcomers up to speed. In addition, a larger team requires more communication and more formalised processes. All the extra communication and formal process box-ticking comes at the cost of development time.
So yes, all this work comes out of the same budget, but adding more staff to focus on Faction Warfare might not actually get the problems fixed faster. In the meantime, I suggest you enjoy "Crucible" for what it does provide, rather than condemning CCP for not giving you the one thing you are fixated on.

@CCP Solomon, meanwhile we can enter the station, could we get some work done along this features...?
- the ability to move the lips (simulated orbicularis oris and buccinator muscles) to show the teeth and make some actual smiles
- more hairstyles (racial hairstyles included, specially replicating the old avatar ones)
- EARRINGS, not silly piercings, but actual EARRINGS!
- painting the fingernails?
- violet/plum lipstick & eyeshadow
- fantasy colors for hair: electric blue, lemon green, cherry red...
- color intensity slider for hair colors, like the one in make up colors
- NEx prices down by 70% (cough)
And would absolutely love to be able to enter a "mannequin mode" to pose the full avatar by moving limbs and so and make photoshoots. You remember the "dress to impress" advertisement? I would want to do exactly that. So... no affordable NEx store... no full-fledged Incarna... no new casual content... no new solo content... no new PvE content...-á
Why should I keep paying to play this game? |

And I've got to echo the words of Apollo Gabriel - why has this blog taken priority over Factional Warfare? I don't know of everything the art team has planned and I don't know of any plans for race locked art assets for characters at this time, but I'll suggest it to them :) In regards to this blog taking priority over others...that's not the accurate assumption to make. There are blogs behind this one in line that are about much bigger and more "serious" features, but there are other factors that come into play and blogs aren't published in a descending order of importance in fact. Features that get finished early sometimes get written about earlier too, not always though. Sometimes it's a matter of a healthy rhythm for blogs to come out...and although I'm mostly a follower of the "get it out and announced as soon as it's ready" school of thought, it's not much fun for anybody if for example we would push out all the biggest, most popular blog in the same week, a month prior to release Then there are even other things. Some devs love to write blogs, some are shy...some I need to put in a headlock etc. I would request the opposite. Races in EVE were once unique and distinct. Why further water down the differences between them.
Clothing, etc should remain unique to each race/bloodline and there should be more of it. Real EVE clothing that is in line with the original character creation designs and remains true to each bloodline, not this generic stuff we have now.

If you want to remove the racelock, there should be a reaction.
something like standing difference with agents and or orginisations.
You see your self walking in a State Protectorate station waring the latest Galente hair style and clothing, you bet they'll tend to make the deal with somebody else or at least pay them better then the goofy Galente friend.
Would be a nice roleplay adition and a practical reason to change clothing now and then, though I'm no IT specialist and I wouldn't know how hard that task would be to achieve. |

If you went to olden day Japan as a Westerner and dressed like a Samurai, you'd lose your head in about 5 seconds regardless of who you were.
It literally makes no sense to me why a Minmatar for example would be standing around in an Amarr station dressed in an Amarr robe and not be arrested, Capsuleer or not. The same way if that Minmatar went into a Minmatar station, the security team there would probably blow their head off with the loathing they display towards anything to do with the Amarr. They'd probably think they were a spy ... or stupid.
Capsuleers are not a power unto themselves when it comes to dealing with the main races of New Eden. Attack an Amarr NPC ship in Highsec and see how that goes.
The plain hair styles though I'll give you that one, because it doesn't make any sense game or lore wise for someone not to be able to grow their hair to a certain length.

What if they were an Ammatar? There are a lot of Minmatar who roleplay as filthy lowlife race trait- uh, I mean, Ammatar. They're Minmatar loyal to the Amarr Empire and they follow cultural and religions customs that more closely resemble Amarr than Minmatar.

And that for me and I'm sure others is immersion breaking.
Wouldn't it be better looking at a Minmatar that was wearing a robe and knowing irrovocably that they are an Ammatar, following the Amarr ways? Also, if their standings go down then they can no longer wear these items.
I played many PnP RP games when I was a member of a RP club, so I do understand where you are coming from and wish CCP would put in the mechanics for clothing that would make them more meaningful in the context of the game rather than the wham, bam thank you maam way they have done it with the NEX Store.
Your other point I believe should of been changed long ago by CCP. In it's current form it makes about as much sense as welcoming a foreign army your at war with into one of your home cities.

- first of, ccp congrats on making an effort on actually looking to solve small details and improve them. people expect things to be fixed and wait and wait and wait and the fixes never come and suddenly people get pissed off ... so it's good to see that you are refining you're game aspects and making it better for everyone.
- second ... i don't need to see the avatar preview window, to check if the avatar is wearing pants or not ... i did tried to remove my pants and couldn't, so it's a bit pointless aspect ... after all, when I'm my pod gue, i were what i want.
- but most of all, if you're puting some efort and energy in the "vanity" or what ever you want to call it ... at least do things with elegance.
- running the risk of floging the dead horse, it's disgusting to see that some items are not really that fantastic. one of the most disgusting items, the monocle, is huggly as a dead fly, however, some players shove it in the eye, like 11 year old kids with hugly transformer dools.
- this is what the monocle could have been ... an elegant item :

instead, we got something distasteful and ugly :
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/8236/stupidfkingmonocle.jpg
but why am i getting this subject now ?
to call the attention that if you're going to create more virtual avatar customisation items, you might as well make sure they appeal in a good way to costumers likings.
why don't you launch a contest similar to the ships creation ? but instead, of virtual goods. a - establish the contest item application (cloths, shoes, shirts, pants, glasses, gloves, and all sorts of customisation items) b - submit created items to votes. c - award prises to the winners.
it's possible that it creates a more close involvement of the community in the virtual storage, with the close approval from you're costumers, than just risk spending time and resources in something that won't be entirely appreciated.
think about the ships creation contest. people are excited of seeing someone's created ships and fly with them now.
* you could also introduce a revolutionary change in the Aurum storage and it's market dynamics
d - make items cheaper and refund the excessive aurum e - items would be fitted to customise the avatar f - with the new foreseen pod killmail, that shows implants, it would show equipped cloths too g - there would be some chance of drooping some of the cloths wille others would be destroyed (a smaller chance of survival than modules)
results : 1 - players would fit cloths cheaper 2 - cloths had a chance of dropping from pods 3 - would add value to the killmail loss 4 - players would have to go buy new items to customise they're avatars, if poded, but it would be cheaper 5 - Dynamic market 6 - other players would have a chance of looting some of the cloths, making it available to them, and perhaps they would like to experience something that otherwise, they wouldn't
maybe not everyone will agree 100% with this suggestions, i myself don't give it much importance, one thing does concern me, that so much energy is spent with items that are not elegant or really appeal to people, when those energy's could be spent in something more useful for the game.

It is quite sad when companies that you had a high respect for decide to throw their ethics out the window in the pursuit of nothing but money and that becomes the only motivator behind their actions.

Also is there any chance that we can see a return of clothing that captures the original otherwordly essense of New Eden? The current designs look like they are something we will see in our own time within the next five years, not something that is worn by cultures in the far distant future on completely different worlds.

I understand completely your point about RP'ing as an Ammatar, the only problem is that the multitude of EVE players will wear those items simply because of how they look. And that for me and I'm sure others is immersion breaking. Oh, you want to talk about immersion-breaking. You know what's immersion-breaking? The Caldari, as a hypercapitalist society are willing to let me buy, build and fly their warships and high-end electronic equipment, but I can't buy their flight jackets and combat trousers. No. So you mean like how the U.S. has sold weapons to other countries that now may or may not be opposed to them. Yet I don't see any of those countries troops wearing American uniforms.
Or where countries have even used captured weapon tech against an enemy. Still didn't see them wearing the enemies uniforms unless they were spies.
History is filled with instances where weapon tech has been traded between countries or used directly against them, but the one contant is that each individual country has always had their own identity when it came to uniforms.
Even casual wear is questionable to a certain extent. Did Russians at the height of the cold war wear the latest American fashions, well maybe if they liked Syberia they did.
You don't think it would raise an eyebrow if an Amarrian was suddenly sporting the latest Gallente fashion whilst in an Amarr station. They would be getting investigated as a suspected Gallente sympathizer.
Your idea of immersion goes against everything we have seen in our own history. Nex (Cash Shop)-á/ Aurum - removing sand from the sandbox since Incarna. Currently the only use for aurum is to buy virtual items in the in-game store, but Cockerill expects to expand its uses in the future. |

CCP,
Can you please re-enable full avatar re-customization for everyone? (As you did before with the new avatar editor)
Up to now, there has only been profile pics. Was fine for me. Unfortunately, I noticed that some of my avatar proportions look... um... "overdone" in the CQ view (was not noticeable in the avatar editor - lighting issue, I suppose), and I'm afraid that would be visible in the Avatar viewer as well.
I think I might not be the only one with that issue, and we deserve the chance to correct our looks beyond the clothing layer If we're gonna avatar at all, let's do it in style \o/
And since we're on the subject of clothing:

Have you played Battlefield 3 ? Did you notice the quality of sound and what it brings to the game ?
You put time and effort in the wrong places.
The question I have for you is: on-board sound or soundcard? i ask because on-board sound systems are 'barebones' and won't deliver the quality of a proper soundcard.
For what it's worth, I've played on and off over the past four years (on various characters and accounts) and I've never experienced any serious sound issues. |

Hi guys. If manhours are going to be spent on these "features" then at least make it interesting. If someone cares enough to zoom in and check out my full body avatar I want the option to roll without pants.
Also we will need two more sliders, one for the length of the shaft and another for the size of *******. with perhaps a tick box for elephantitis on the *******.
edit: the actual anatomical word for "bag" is censored. |
