Work computers are still borked, and the IT guys can't be there til Thursday. Fortunately for me I am salary and now am getting a paid vacation. To play wildstar. 
 
So let's eat!
 
 
You know I really think they have dropped the ball as far as lore when it comes to mechari. Just think how much fun it would be to get extra arms? I'm sure other people would call it op, but maybe that is what the dominion needs.
 
What sorts of character customization would you guys be after? I know I saw the splash from the asian release as far as some different faces for some races, but I have never seen a screenshot of what they ended up with. It would be neat to get the asian mordesh face over here, or any new racial customization. 
 
 
This is also the 26th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin wall. A really great time to remove the faction walls that keep players apart. HINT HINT.

Good morning (or afternoon)!
Sitting here with coffee starting trying to start with an assignment for school, and waiting for work to start. It's really rainy and stormy outside and it sucks the energy out of you for some reason =/
 
So, talking about customization, as a chua player ofc I'm after some more female looking chuas... more female hairstyles, faces. We all would love it =) And the dominion population would gain much from it. The silly choice to make chuas mostly male looking was a strange choice from carbine. I liked that they had shade's eve wig, there should be more like that unless they can add more real hairstyle options. More hair options and stuff they can sell as well *caa-ching*, and they could really need to add more stuff to their store. I would also like more costumes with like skirts and dresses, seeing datamined costumes there are mostly robot looking costumes which is cool but still =) We mostly get like coats that go down a bit to be somewhat dress like but I really like dresses, and they don't need to make them out of context either... robot dresses work for all of us =)

Good afternoon.
Currently taking a break from the commotion of a normal weekday by losing myself in a mug of cinnamon tea. This stuff is good!
 
Customization, you say?
That's a topic I don't have any crazy ideas on, for once, as my characters all end up looking really human anyway.
It's always been the basics that nagged at me.
Like eyebrows, I really wish they would make them match the haircolor. Or offer us variations of the same faces we already have with different color eyebrows painted on.
Other than that, it always seemed odd to me that we have options to make our characters bulkier or skinnier but every race still has a fixed height. A height slider would be a nice addition, even if it only goes from slightly shorter than average to slightly taller than average.	
----
			
Good Morning/Afternoon, 
 
I am always a big fan of more customization because the more you can tailor something to fit your needs the better but for me I would actually like them to open it up so that all the races can play all the classes. I don't see why someone should have to choose a race that is second favorite just because they want to play a certain class or vice versa a class that is second favorite just because they want to select a certain race. 
 
As for Dominion and Exiles mixing, it would be nice to see especially on housing plots but the issue of this is PVP servers. If you enable this then Joe Bloggs can simply grief someone as they are trying to build on there housing plot. I suppose they could set there housing plot to private to get around this but just trying to think of other repercussions of having this on PVP servers as you do not want to have too major a difference between PVP and PVE game builds. 
 
On a separate note I have just finished bio-dome3 and now onto bio-dome4 and these are the worst zones I have seen so far. I really enjoyed Whitevale despite seeing some people say its awful although im a sucker for the snowy areas and I never found it bad but the bio-domes are just small and peppered with mobs feels like every two steps im bumping into something red.  Hopefully there isn't a bio-dome5 and I get out of these claustrophobic areas and into something a tad more spacious, im really enjoying leveling my Stalker and im at the stage now that he his hitting mobs like a truck with impale.

I admit that I don't think of the chuas as particularly "male looking" escept perhaps for the Giant Twirling Villain Moustache option. 
 
They don't have the overly-sexualized male profile that we see in the in-game males of other species - that point-down triangle - or the heavily-defined muscles of the others.  Just because they don't also have overly-sexualized female breasts or hips doesn't make them explicitly male, it just makes them not explicitly either.  Male is not a natural default of any sort, so just because something isn't in a bikini with That Shape does not make it male.
 
Even Disney has apparently learned this.

{| class="blockquote"
I understand what you mean, but having more female looking chuas wouldn't really sex them up unless... well, I don't know =) I mean my female chua wears a helmet now, can't really tell she's female more than she's very pink =) So you can define as you like.

Good (insert time of day mannerism here),
 
Hope everyone had a great weekend. Got my lovely warrior to 50 and have been grinding out my path levels to get it maxed as well. I also picked up a Genesis Key but have no idea whether i will be able to do the imbuement stuff anytime soon as i am only sporting the S2 pvp gear. I also have a conundrum on my hands, i can figure out which shoulders look better on my new costume.
 
 
I like the reflective look on the secondary image

Customizatiooooonnn... Aaaugh I've been trying to create some new alts lately and reeeaaally feeling the pain of limited options. @_@ The biggies for me are:
 
1. Hair styles
2. Hair colors
3. Skin colors
 
That last one applies to everyone, but it comes with a particular want toward female aurin... I am extremely jealous of all the highly detailed skin textures found on male aurin, mordesh, draken, etc. Dx Female aurin skin is so flat; would be nice if they also got the interesting patterns that males of their species have.
 
And I'd really like some new options for:
 
1. Scars
2. Tail ring customization
3. Makeup (detach makeup from face type and let me pick and choose... not really a fan of the super heavy lipstick, but there are some decent faces stuck in there. Dx)
4. HEIGHT!
 
Character customization is SUPER DUPER important to me. Making new characters is in part what keeps me going in an MMO, and it's frustrating that I feel like I've just about hit my limit in terms of being able to make characters I like the looks of. D:
 
In other news, I totally got to whack at Phagemaw on Saturday! That was exciting. On top of that, a biiiiiiig plot point in RP is very quickly coming to a head. o_o Eek! It's do or die for Jack and Anne at this point.	
----
			I am all for customization and I agree with Nau on the needed options. Scars where always great to have in Swtor and i like height adjustment as long its on a set standard. I would personally love the Aion customization options with a reasonable height scale, not like Aions height scale otherwise everyone would be 1 foot tall with a bobble head. 	
----
			
I just want coffee. 
 
 
When Aion first came out, a friend of mine would attempt to make the most ghastly looking characters. He wanted everyone to cringe when they saw him. Aion customization is a powerful tool, but when used improperly give people nightmares.

That Aion customization was really cool in the first days. Sure we got some grotesque monsters, but we also had a way to make things the size of granok, slim elf looking characters, and a lot of little hobbits all from the same race. It was really neat in its flexibility. 
 
I think if I tried to ship coffee to the office, it would be cold by the time you got it.
 
Here you go Eden.

Definitely more in depth customization would be a want for me. More hairstyles, customizable body proportions.
 
I would like my Chua to be tail-less. :X	
----
			I would totally play Mechari if they could have 4 arms. General Grievous all the way!	
----
			I'm going to spend a huge amount of time tonight in character customization. Fallout 4 is coming. Wildstar

Good afternoon, or whatever time it is wherever you are! I reached 50 for the first time last night and I'm so excited to see all the gameplay options I have available to me now. I have a lot of zones to finish and better gear to obtain, contracts and veteran things to explore. So much new stuff to do! And what do I need to do to get started on raid attunement? There is still an attunement process right? I'm not even sure I'll raid, but I do love 5 man content and the attunement process seems like as good a goal as any to work toward. 
 
As for customization, the main thing I would like to see for all races are more face options. More than anything else, this is where customization seems lacking. For some races I feel like there are 1 or 2 good options and the rest appear rushed during development. It could just be personal preference, but I like all my characters to be distinct and when there's only one face I like for some races, that makes it difficult. Anything beyond that addition would be gravy!

more skin color options is needed.
 
and aurins on the domionion side XD

Only worked in the morning today. Trying to decide if I want to make another cup of coffee and play WildStar (are people even online at this time? ha)...or take a nap :P.
 
Got my medic to 50 a few days ago. I'm trying to gear him up, it's weird getting killed in expeditions (I can complete them but can't get gold in any yet). My intent is to heal with him (which is what I was doing on and off while questing) but for now I've mostly focused on DPS gear so I can do daily stuff. Medic DPS is kind of boring to me but it's nice that I can screw up and still kill everything :P. I love healing so can't wait to get some nice support gear. I hope a world boss contract shows up soon, I will happily farm the stupid particles to allow him to get some world boss kills.
 
Oh, and if anyone else has a fresh 50 character/alt, feel free to whisper me and we can maybe group up for stuff :). Even if it's just expeditions or dailies, things go smoother with more people (especially with our low iLevels!). Reekah Taz or Milo Minderbinder on Entity-1 (Dominion), I mostly play late at night.

HI COFFEE!!!!
 
Heh. Been busy today at the office. About to head home. Nothing much to report. Build and tore down the same mountain three times this weekend. Finally got flustered and gave up. Went out to quest. Got smacked in the gob by the Whitevale Lag Monster.
 
Now it's time to go home!
 
See y'all tomorrow (or this evening, depending on how the afternoon pans out!)

Am I the only one around here who is irritated by blizzcon? I mean all the hype about it, everyone everywhere posting about it, youtube overfilled with that garbage...
 
While in reality it is nothing special, just overhyped commercials to blizzard games where (if you pay enough to be actually able to watch those commercials) some dudes will be talking about how awesome those (actually average) games of theirs are...
 
It is sad to see that even gaming community can become heard of braindead sheeps... Or rowsdowers to stay in WS a bit

Hello Everyone - 
 
I too think the base faces are pretty limited.  Would like to see a snarly/sly smile choice.  Height would also be nice to change.
 
in weekend Wildstar news, the raiding circle kept the momentum, downed Kuralak in a reasonable amount of time and then started working on the second floor.  Got a few pulls in on Phage Maw, several of the members ad not seen him yet so it will be our next big fight to learn.  Looks like we can get back to our pre-hiatus schedule of clearing first floor on Wednesday and work exclusively on second floor during the Saturday night session.  I really want to say the new group in our rebooted circle has been amazing, big shout out to all the members of the Hold My Beer circle.  Other than that, helping new 50 level guildies navigate through all the content, ran expeditions, dungeons, contracts and all that jazz.  Really fun weekend overall.

Woo! Go Cast!
 
In the minus column: No coffee for a week.  In the plus column: I'm off work this week.  They shifted our carryover policy and now most people have to burn two additional weeks.  Now to figure out when to take the other three :rolleyes:
 
Designing outfits with the boobie Freelancer chest is surprisingly addictive.  Enough that I broke down and rolled an Exile human female alt. Still not sure that Engineer/Settler was a good idea (I'm "eh" on the class and the path is kinda grindy).  However she looks good and that might be enough of an attraction. 
 
I also rolled a Chua :huh: (Eidolon Mosk).  Finally got around to seeing the arkship post-Drop 6.  Wow, that's just sad.  Worse, you can't even go down and visit Larry :(.  Blew through the starter area and by the time I got to Deradune I was so overlevelled that I decided to go looking for the next area ... but nothing's triggering.  Was hoping the Exile base (Stingers and 'noks) would just start since that's on-level but I guess I need some breadcrumb that's otherwise gated.  I'll figure something out.

Engineer settler is what I am and I love it! Making my own buffs is the best. Also at launch I felt so cool creating buffs for the people. Then they nerfed duration *cries*.
Engi is lots of fun, slow moving fun but fun. The bots are adorable too so big plus.
----
			My engineer is a settler, too! That must be a thing.

Scientist engi here.....cuz summon....gotta feel semi-useful :P  .   Mostly pvp nowadays so no need for it nowadays :).
 
Also, shameless Elec spammer here.  So glad I don't have to use PB any more, just felt clunky to me.	
----
			Is there anything else other than electrocute spam?! I've been doing that my entire leveling process! XD	
----
			There is bolt caster spam, but its single target so only limited spamming potential
