    Yeah no. The game's already got essentially naked characters running around via Orions and Risa flower things.

    Yes, I'll probably get bitten by the forum fleas for saying this (but I have thick skin, none of them fleas can hurt me) but this is a Star Trek game. Pardon me if I want the slightest bit of immersion. I already think it's ridiculous to have Starfleet admirals running around ESD in a t-shirt, shorts, and bare feet. This ain't a generic fantasy game. We do not need more skimpy clothes (or the lack thereof).

    Voporak. Old buddy. Old Pal. Good friend. I hate to say this, but have you ever seen Star Trek mate? I mean, it's not like it was obvious, but honestly. Look at what you are saying.

    I'm sorry, but that's not a good enough excuse to put it in the game just to satisfy the needs of some of these people.

    Yeah. There was this kind of stuff in Trek. But it wasn't every third female character. Most episodes had people acceptably clothed. The examples you pulled are few and far between compared the amount of episodes in Trek.
    I ask nothing but that you remember me.

    Perhaps a bit of both. But seriously. Costume designers are seriously under appreciated and Star Trek had among the best. Their work needs to be recognized. And they're canon. And they would make tons of money for Cryptic.

    I fail to see any downsides to this plan.

    There's a difference between "work" and just pure eye candy that was thrown together.

    Of course not, because I'm not a costume designer. They didn't have to design such clothing.

    It is much harder to make something revealing than not.

    Well they'd have to mess around with skin textures and other things that normally don't have to be bothered with when using normal clothing.

    How about no?

    How about some decent clothing first, such the ENT Maco Uniform, a Rom-based STF outfit, or anything for the KDF.



    OOH!! OOH!!! Maybe like a longer skirt option for the 21st century formal wear!!

    I mean, what is this? A cocktail party? The top, I really don't mind, but the skirt is the major "I won't buy this EVER" factor for me. If we get a long skirt to go with it, it is an instant buy. And by long skirt, I mean near the ankles.

    Having looked through this thread I think there is only one conclusion:

    When it comes to clothing options, we need more of everything. Period.

    Only if you are a woman (and yes means no). Otherwise it really means no.

    As for the outfit, I don't care about skimpy clothes. That just doesn't make a lot of sense if they are allowed for everywhere else than Risa, and/or Orions.
    And if I want to see half naked girl, this is the internet. It's not that difficult.

    I want more cool armor, like Honor guard or MACO. Or more uniforms.

    I agree...about the second part :P

    I mean on the internet it's so easy to find scantily clad women and even non clad... :P

    Compromise. A nice sweater up top with short shorts and flats on the bottom.

    It's still true. It is very difficult to create something revealing without it revealing too much. You should try it some time. ;)

    Ah... the default dress for any teenage girl in the midwest.

    As backlogged as the devs are, they always need the time. I'll go with more of everything as well for my answer in regards to clothing, options options, options! And it's important for everyone to remember, tolerance is the spirit of Star Trek! So, someone else's clothing or cultural costumes are not of your tastes? Deal with it! No one is forced to wear anything they don't like.

    Something revealing without it being too revealing? You must be forgetting about our Orion friends.

    Personally I would rather have a better color pallet for my KDF Orion female than a bathing suit or more skimpy clothes.
