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.

Will be up today? Would be nice to have breasts on a video game. I want you to know your bein killed by a girl when i stop to taco drop you fellows :)

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.

Seriously, guys? It's **** like this. This is why gaming is still such a boys club. This is why girl gamers are a rarity. Can we not discuss the possibility of adding female avatars without "lol boobies"? Grow up.

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.

IGÇÖm a 200-pound albino infant. GÇ£e-everyone gets a stock clone to-to keep costs down.GÇ¥
They have the technology to give me an exact replica of my original body.
TheyGÇÖd simply chosen not to. ItGÇÖs a decision that has the stink of bureaucracy all over it.

Cala was... is, a woman. Fiercely patriotic, she had jumped at the chance to be among the first of the RepublicGÇÖs new breed of soldier. Unlike the rest of us, she knew they would put her into a stock male body. They had explained it to her probably in the hopes that it would dissuade her from going through with it. She agreed to the procedure anyway, which, they must have figured, made her just the right kind of crazy for the job.

On one had, having female avatars encourages women to game more, which is always a good thing, and it would help diversify the look of our mercs. (I don't dislike Dust's art design, but the character silhouettes are quite samey, especially compared with games like TF2 and L4D.)

On the other hand, it doesn't make much sense to have female clones in universe. I was under the impression that we were drawing from the same pool of generic clones and simply uploading our consciousnesses and slapping our fittings on them. Splitting the clones up into genders seems inefficient. What happens in ambush when your team runs out of a gender? How about when there is only one female on a team? How many clones does she get vs. the rest of the team?

Answer: Nanites? Androgynous clones in gendered armor? Stop worrying about these things, Knarf?

Haven't you been starting new threads every week about this?

Guess I need to bring up some lore to shut this down as the previous gender threads were deleted.

Processing..


I can see you working your " taco " in your personal quarters.

But into a stock clone you go for the battlefield!

This thread smells of GAMURRRRRR gUUrlZ!`1!!

Seriously, guys? It's **** like this. This is why gaming is still such a boys club. This is why girl gamers are a rarity. Can we not discuss the possibility of adding female avatars without "lol boobies"? Grow up.

Something like 43-47% of the gaming population is women. I hear that most don't announce it because of all the harrasment they get from boys.

It's this guys fault. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRkao-gyZC0

I think the guy on the video was "speacial" if ya know what i mean

No, actually it has something to do with genetic dispositions related to the content of video games. Those with male genes tend to gravitate toward bodily motion, while those with female genes tend to gravitate toward emotional encounters. Tend to being the key words here, as this is a sliding scale with separate mean at said points.

Most games nowadays are shooters. Not much for girls to get engaged with. "its just another gun game". etc etc...

More than likely most games nowadays are targeting male audiences because most of the designers are male (and the tendancy to like to program/do math seems to be quantified as a male trait as well, hence the good female programmers tend to swerve toward the male side of the curve similar to many female gamers)

-----------If you actually want girls to play games (from the female side of the curve, of course there are guys on that side too), then you need more creativity in your games... such as Minecraft has. Its incredibly simplistic, blocky, low-graphic, and slow, yet has a large attraction to the female demographic, mostly because it permits them to differ from the "male norm" of games.
AKA: They can build a house, invite friends to a community, make a "family", start a "farm" yadda yadda,.. or even at times go on a light adventure.

-----then off to the topic of the skimpy clothing. While it is true that many women playing games may feel threatened or insulted by video game characters being exaggerated, there are also those who feel deficient who actually play with the characters as a kind of consolation, as well as those who play with the characters, just so they can play with the minds of guys they meet. .... the variations are quite diverse...so I'll just end that bit here.

Anyway, I don't think many female gamers would even be looking toward a shooter like this unless they already liked shooters, and more than likely they're expecting the game's designs to have some kind of exaggeration to them. so if the game is one they want to play, its highly unlikely that the designs will scare them off.

Other than that, if the female avatar annoys them, they can always draw a guy.

Anyone in a scout suit looks like girlly ballerina already.

I think the addition of female mercs is a good idea. It gives the game a bit more diversity and helps to bring some of the female gamers over without alienating them.

From a game design perspective, you want your players to be able to see themselves in the game... in the role they are choosing to play. EVE seems to understand this as they have a very deep character designer set up on EVE Online... right down to scars and tattoos and changing bone structure.. and all this for just a screen cap that other people see. ... yet it helps the player identify with the character they are creating and playing.

As for Lisa Michelle... "Taco Drop" away...;) Although with your usual K/D you'd be spending far too much time playing face jocky... remember.. you don't wanna fight... you just wanna kill *laughs*

Anyway, I'm all for female skins/models... as long as they have the same hitbox as the males

That is such bull sh!t and really sexist (as usual) There are tons of females that LOVE FPS .. I wasnt aking for a thong.. just simply a female character.

I tried to create a female character on tuesday. I can successfully create the character but all the models are still male.

my poor girl has to deal with the oversized codpiece!

Whats wrong with my K/D ? have you seen it? Its 2.19 and it would be higher if i hid in vehicles every game like most of you. Was in the top 50 on the leaderboards also.. My my how you boys love to talk sh!t

I'm hoping we have the female characters out now. I'm pretty sure CCP said that there won't be very much difference to them. No bikini body armor which is nice. Eve's new character creation system worked out pretty well. You get a good variety of looks without anything being particularly slutty... I just hate how the characters are forced in the high-heel position.

I know what my KDR is cause i was always trying to catch WUBI on the leaderboards

What are you on the leadboards.Im like around the 40s 1 of my friends are like 37.
EDIT:im Not there anymore hahaha

Uh reread that, Lisa.... I wasn't talking ****...I was supporting you...

My apologies. thought you were bashing me about my KDR for some reason

This is why k/d shouldent be recorded people get to sensative over it and sometimes judge other people on having a low k/d because they play the game for fun
