    CBS has to approve everything they put in this game.

    CBS and cryptic have a contract like all companys do

    Telling cryptic what they can do and cannot without authorization

    CBS is not going to micro manage every move cryptic makes

    I call BS on your statement unless you have proff that cryptic cannot make any decision about content without CBSs authorization

    I look foward to seeing your proof

    You can just deny every single time a dev has stated what they can and cannot do in many posts in the forum then. Because that seems like what yer gonna do regardless.

    And do you realize that the "DEVS" cant even talk for their bosses, right?? they are just employers, you know that, right?? and even so, do you realize they cant tell you almost anything, right?? and do you realize, because of that, almost anything they say its pure especulation?? and do you realize that since more than a year ago, the devs are not there anymore??, you do, right?? do you think i am going to really pay attention on what a dev said, when they cant even fix the most dumb things on the game?? haha, dont make me laugh.

    I really dont get the obsession some of u have with the "devs". You guys really love that word and i dont think you know what that word really means.. xD

    Of course CBS must aprove everything, but honestly i dont think thats the case, it doesnt matter what the devs say (because they dont have a closer idea, honestly even if you keep trying to convince youself of the opposite), and BTW, we still have people on qonos wearing swimsuits.. i dont think CBS give a fuxxx lol.

    I dont get the point of a restriction at all...

    people like walking around in their desired looks... just make it off duty...restricting stuff to risa is boring.. since when the event is over no one will be there...and the swimwear will barely be seen (( except the KDF exploiters/Bugusers who will wear them at Drozana and other places ...))---"so much work" for something that will vanish after the event...


    its already stupid to see some people with cat tails who are no cats...if you google what it is it is a leftover from some tailor command that got deleted...


    but people still have this "extra feature" ....and that is not fair.. especially not to people who would like to play a different species...why cant we all use tails? atleast ALIENs...

    Restrictions are unfair.. no matter if they are intended or not and its even more unfair if the restrictions arent affecting ALL players....



    P.S. i dont see this as complainment.. i just state my opinion about this matter

    it isnt game breaking but its still not fair at all.

    No offense to Flash, and in part to Chaos's statements, anyone sporting bikini's off risa, wearing tails, Borg bits, Fed clothes as a KDF Romulan, or any other combination of these or other observed 'hacks' is pure and simple exploitation, and should be punished. It doesnt matter how or why the person or people are doing these things it is giving that player an unfair advantage. People can and do use and flaunt these types of exploits is because this game has ZERO GM's.
    And that is the problem.
    The devs are way too busy to deal with this type of stuff and the CS agents that handle our 'tickets' have literally no power in the game, so as such people find and flaunt the TRIBBLE out of every exploit possible, when in actuality they should be getting reprimanded and punished by GM's.

    My point is, there's a difference between this and the Orion gear, because the Orion gear is keyed to colors that are not green and Orion characters. Like he said above, there's no way around this with aliens. I can see why they restricted it to the beach planet.

    As for being more mature and not leering, its not leering if someone streaks by and you get a little distracted and it is not unreasonable to find it unsettling. .




    Let's all grow up and be honest. Its not immersion, its culture. Its the comfort of the players. It is the baseline of Western culture (particularly American) to find it unsettling in regular settings and its a liberal attitude to be okay with it on the beach, and as this game has a massive American base you can't just say "its your problem". Much as some people seem to want it to be, it is not an TRIBBLE-rated game we're playing.

    Really, with the Orion gear and the Mirrorverse mid-drift tops and the short skirts you have more than enough ridiculous female costume options to throw around. Well, for female Captains. For some strange reason I can't make a male human Captain shirtless except on Risa (which is in the show and acceptable in American culture but they've never budged on it), and that was an uneven standard even before female Captains could streak Risa.


    Specifically this part of Morchades's statement: My point is, there's a difference between this and the Orion gear, because the Orion gear is keyed to colors that are not green and Orion characters. Like he said above, there's no way around this with aliens.
    We need to have a unified color pallet for clothing, there are just too many. A color pallet specifically for the 'alien' race that is 'off' shades of the unified color pallet so people can not walk around looking nude. Those 2 fixes would solve many issues like this.

    It has been answered millions of times and if you watched the shows you wouldn't be asking. The Orion "bikini", although not a bikini in the conventional sense, is the Orions' uniform/formal/standard attire. It's part of their culture and it's canon, just like everybody running in bikinis on Federation starbases is contrary to that canon.

    I completely understand what you're saying, but I made it clear many moons ago that my opinion is against the cliche "well since we have this dumb thing here and that idiotic thing there, let's just give up on everything and make it all as insane and stupid as possible".

    this my thing if im playing alone maybe unless you pug you would never see my sexy romulan in her white bikini off of Risa unless like i said you pug or group with some friend or fleet member that wants to you use it but places like ESD especially restrict it from their

    I can color my TNG uniform green so immersion is dead therefore lets run around ESD in bikinis.

    for the sake of the arguement if bikinis finally leave risa for everywhere, i request that if more bikinis come that the extreme ones stay on risa, sheer bikini, microkini, monokini and sling bikini's for the women. i mean you asking for absurd. then give the community some of what they want but leave the best bit on risa :P. however i dont think the monokini would ever get into the game though, thats a bit exotic even for risa.

    No, you can't wear a bikini while battling Klingons (a pretty dress and high heels though should be ok)

    What you need to be wearing is a Starfleet uniform. Something dignified and respectable. Something like this.

    The proof that you are looking/asking for, to my understanding, can cost someone their job and/or criminal charges for leaking confidential internal documents (or whatever the accusation is) besides that contract that you mentioned would most likely cover ships and major events of which the summer event IMHO is, so yes CBS could say swimware on Risa only.

    Best response I've ever heard about the swimsuit topic was something along the lines of if everybody was so keen to wear bikinis all the time the game would be swarmed with KDF playing their Orions.

    Wearable swimwear would have a month or 2 of all swimwear all the time, and then most of the playerbase would go back to their old reliable, or move on to the new shiny.

    This a new millennium. If I want to see skin on my computer I have more then enough options available to me, and I look good enough in a bikini in real life to just wear one.

    I just refuse to grind for something I can only use in one zone that I'll only be in during one event, and doesn't even really help me while I am there. I might not even get the doffs. I hate grinding favors.

    Thank you for bringing some sanity back to this thread, and for returning it to topic ...

    I agree, that in reality it would be a short term "fad" where people would wear them on ESD or Qo'noS, but if they made it available to everyone, the "Ooh look at me, I'm special, because I'm being naughty" attitude would dissipate very quickly.

    Even now we have the "Die hards" and "Try hards" on Risa with their "Gorn in Pink Swim Trunks" or their "Flesh Coloured Bikini to pretend to be nude" players ... But then, I see more Lara Croft lookalikes in the Beachcomber outfit, and many players are wanting to accessorize with Shirts, Skirts, Headgear and Footwear ... And even a bunch that insists on wearing their Environmental suits when on Risa! ...

    I can't see the harm in it myself, and it would certainly make the time it takes to "grind" for the outfit more worthwhile.

    This makes me sad. The devs could have fixed the many KDF issues (including costume issues), gave kit modules a category on the exchange, etc. But no, of all bugs they could squash the devs fixed...swimsuits. Woohoo.

    Since all the party stuff is now opened to risa to be spammed to high hell....balloons all over the race course...yeah...

    the simple solution is just allow the swimwear to be wearable in all social zones...

    ie DS9 (we have holodecks somewhere around there)
    Drozana
    Bajor (it does have a pool and to mention...would the surfboards work there??)

    any map that has people wanting to kill you (including fuzzy epohhs) ie new Romulus should have it disabled...
