I have never understood as to why some men want a female character. Seems weird to me, and just for the record I have heard plenty of excuses from males on why they play around in a female character. Not that it matters to me.

As for their appearance? I know Dust514 is a sci-fi shooter, but if I see women like they just came from Warhammer30K or something I am going to be dissapointed. I was amazed when people (majority men) complained about the lack of femininity of women wearing power armor in the Fallout series and again when Bethesda did Fallout3, and had Obsidian (Black Isle) do Fallout: New Vegas. Thankfully it was minimal complaining compared to some games. I mean granted I feel women gamers are robbed of having a choice in the vast majority of games available to them and which gender they are able to choose, but the fact is most men.. Man children are incapable of being well -- Mature. Then when someone does allow women in a shooter if it's not outrageous and outlandish the men cry and complain. I doubt women want that sort of character. They just want to play as a female. I swear.

Humanity is such a fickle, and weird creature. Just hope CCP does not get all goofy on us here with character proportions.

I think planet side, planetside 2 and halo:reach did it fairly well, the characters are feminine without trying to be sexy fantasies for teen boys. You shouldn't be able to see boobs in armour anyway, it not designed to make you look sexy its designed to save your life.

Anyway I heard rumors of people saying that they were able to create a female character, but it was most likely a hoax, or a glitch. As for the appearance I highly doubt you'll notice much a different beyond height, or waist line. The most noticible dropsuits that may show any changes are scout and assault. Most likely. Hopefully CCP does not go all fiction on us and get goofy on armor for women. Anyway when it will be available? Not too sure. Hopefully soon I suppose?

It really only hurts the industry and player base when companies do such things.
