We need more female "professional" options
Totally, I miss the otherworldly self-confidence and style consciousness of the old mission agents.


Ajai Akio liked wearing reactive armor


Ankold Falf , with a crown of thorns


Tentacle was about to strangle Evingvert Styliera


Fle Javesquet in a marshmallow costume, with weird nose job


Jedira Mesar, and a nose jewel or third eye with glasses?


Lonenria Fina, punk girl or lady of vengeance?


Ossa Blaus wrapped herself in plastic


Vilhara Vit, with handles or tentacles and a tough haircut

Thank you, Bastian. I laughed.

I used the tentacle-strangler-or-build-in-microphone style for my first character, because the rest of that style was the nearest I could get to Zoe from Serenity.

I miss some of the hair options from before Incarna... the only ones I like atm are the ponytails, everything else is either too extreme (like clippers to the side of the head or bowl-cuts) or makes them look like some fancy princess in distress.  We need more female "professional" options, like the old pinned-up short hair look:



Most of the pony-tail haircuts for women do look like they got their hair contained and 'professional', so I don't really see your problem in that regard - I'm missing the more outlandish haircuts more tbh, like the haircut Jesmine used to have, the half-lose/half-pullback haircut, or the ones where the above-shown device was in use - or anything along those lines. IT helped to make the Amarr look outlandish and badass, fitting for an Empire that would be very human, but also very alien to today's standards. The Intaki, Sebeistor and Gallente haircuts were pretty iconic as well, for males and females.

Oh well. They keep working in the game and despite the total flunk of Incarna, they are bound to give out more clothing, haircut and other options for player toons. Question is always when, and what, though. We will see.

Tell that to my Khanid brothers who've lost their quite awesome hood visors, and my gallente ladies missing their transparent collars :(

Not to mention the Intaki who lost their robes and long hair.

EDIT: In my excita-posting, I failed to see that Bloodbird had said the same thing. My bad.

"You are an immortal, near-godly being of immense power, and wealth. You purchase, fly and destroy warships the size of mountains and small moons, you acquire weapons of mass destruction that can level cities in mere minutes, firing ammunition able to atomize even the air around the impact area. You dress in clothing that costs as much as the annual gain of small welfare-nations, you..."

...tear off the ragged remains of cloth from frozen, mutilated corpses to use as your own clothing?

"Did he drop any good loot?"

"Naah, just some rags."

"Sweet, clothing!"
*dons*

Thanks to the NEX store, we are now back to the classic corpse-looting that is near-standard in most RPG's.

...in before "I found this suit on some guy's corpse, now why can't I enter your party again?"

Good thing every last character have the same size clothes as all others of the same gender.

If you were a 24th member, you'd be better off wearing the default Amarr jackets to more accurately simulate an Imperial uniform than those Sterling shirts, IMO...

Not only that, but NONE fo those shirts look even vaguely uniform to me.

They look vaguely uniform on people's mugshots and portraits since we do only see the top. I guess that is already something for people that want something that look at least a little uniform-ish.

I can't say I miss the hood visor. It made half of the khanid men look like they're a Daft Punk member.
