Doesn't make sense to have it in combat areas - just the Merc Quarters and the Warbarge... Maybe Clan Quarters if they ever implement such a thing...

Yanno, all that Plasma Planet goodness totally works with no helmet..

At any rate, CPM should just try to convince the Dust 514 team to lower their workload and copy/paste a form of the Eve Online Chargen onto a browser based version which would show the avatar on the Dust 514 forums/in-game chat channel avatar. Would definitely alleviate a lot of workload on the Devs and give these guys a face to call their own without having to implement some massive in-game overhaul.

Unfortunately the Unity and Carbon engines don't work like that, Its more of a Copy, Chop up to a million peices, then paste into a new shape that is still similar to the previous iteration. Similarly the same cannot be said about Dust 514 being on UR3 engine and copy pasting it to UR4 engine. While the graphical assets can be retained the extremely heavy modifications done to the engine are likely UR3 mods only and new ones will have to be made on UR4 to maintain 'consistent' performance.

They did a pretty good job importing the Ship Viewer into the website. Some of the ships on there were V3'd before Eve Online was.

Grimthroth Nova Breaker KiLo. 7	Posted - 2013.05.24 23:41:00 - [2] - Quote I agree with you the avatars could do with some work. How I would go about it is, how you play the game is how your avatar is formed. For example you play as a heavy most of the time so your avatar reflects that and so on. But none the less the avatars could use some tweaking. Right now there nice but very default. -Grimthorth Nova Breaker

Iron Wolf Saber Den of Swords 4732	Posted - 2013.05.25 16:50:00 - [6] - Quote That is a low priority sort of thing vs everything else having to be fixed. Chances are they will start with the faces first then work on full body. How and when is beyond me.

The last thing we need is people making people four feet tall and weighing sixty pounds. Or just give us default bodies and let us pick our clothing. Full face customization would be lovely though...

So in other words: The CPM aren't doing anything because why should they do anything the community wants. You and Jenza are exactly why politicians need to be kicked out.

Hi, Please be quiet since you've clearly never seen nor touched the character editor in EVE.

I'LL GET STUCK MESSING AROUND WITH THE CHARACTER CREATOR TRYING TO GET IT PERFECT AND NEVER PLAY!! (It'd probably take me a full day or two to make and EVE character if I decided to touch the character creator, and didn't just use whatever face it started on)

Let me make something very clear to you and every like-minded ***** on these forums: Dust is not Eve. Dust is not doing the same things Eve is doing, Dust is not aimed at the same people, Dust is not using the same roadmap, Dust is not designed to look nor play like Eve. If you want to talk about Eve and what Eve is doing or has done, go back to the Eve forums. This is Dust 514 forums, having any knowledge whatsoever of Eve online is not required and we don't need people like you telling other people their opinions don't matter on design aspects that don't necessarily have ANYTHING do do with Eve. Also this " Hi. You obviously don't know" nonsense doesn't make you look as witty as you think it does, but I'm sure you'll continue posting it like it's the best thing anybody could think of.

What I meant with having faces is just for the avatar. In battles people would still have there gear on. Would still be rated T :)

Make sure people have the obligation to put a uniform to access the game lobby .Leave different suit for free and make the reste ,,??you know lets peoples spend money on there look . is just a idea..

They are also trying to port the character creator to a web interface as well. Luckily I can probably safely say that any work done to character creation is going to minimally impact dust 514's development.

I am sorry but according to the last 20 pages on general discussion and technical bug forums and features and ideas... Avatar creation is probably rank LAST of all current issues. If there is a pecking order based on how loud people are screaming I know that if avatars get done next patch and nothing else got fixed, We are going to have a massive riot on our hands. Now if we get the TAC balanced, I won't have a massive riot, sure some players will be upset we didn't get the prices lowered on the dropship but with the TAC lowered there is going to be some whines and more celebrations.

Every time players like you say something like this, I think "Get out of our universe." Because if that's how you're going to act, you clearly don't need EVE. Not its funding, not its developers, not its content, history, lore, or any of the like. You can take current "released" DUST as is with no seasonal updates, no more weapons balancing, no more new content. Just get off of Tranquility. You don't have the right to come in and start changing OUR universe and our game if you're not going to let EVE take the lead (it has 10 years on DUST) and help guide the games into a complete mesh. Blowing you up from orbit is fun, though. Can't wait to blap some districts when DUST corps who "don't care about EVE" think that the space they just got is "theirs"
