Well, With the Release of Delta Rising, for the first time EVER Orion Females can wear something other than Sandals on their feet with the "bare legs" option.
Apperantly the new Intel outfit boots are now available in the category.
But can we PLEASE have all the rest of the boots unlocked to us? Theres no reason for us to NOT be able to use them with bare legs & loin cloth options, seeing as how they work perfectly fine with miniskirts.
Please???

Not like Starfleet where you can prance around dressed as a colourblind rainbow.:P

That said, I agree it's worth evaluating what options are available.
In fact, the many updates coming soon to the female legs and footwear, etc. will hopefully improve and increase compatibility enough that we can allow more options to all species. We have plans to make a similar pass on male assets as well.
Or am I way off?

I think you might be reading a little bit too far into that statement.

I can understand if it is a bug, but if it doesn't interfere with anything else, please don't take away that combination. Also, I do earnestly hope that you guys are taking into consideration more versatility in mixing and matching costume parts.
And by at your own risk i mean an unsupported option that has not and probally wont recieve full testing for clipping issues and stuff etc.
It's a fun idea, but the closest we'll ever allow for that is foundry creations.

There goes my dream of combining traditional Orion clothing with Elite Honor Guard accessories... would have looked so epic!
Ah, maybe I misunderstood you.
We definitely won't unlock everything, even in an advanced "at- your-own-risk" option...meaning we don't want to increase opportunities for costumes clipping drastically. We already struggle to minimize clipping, and many players would (and already do) see clipping as glaring mistakes in the art of STO.
However, like I said, with our current and continuing goals to improve the fit of assets, this will also increase compatibility. And then, it is absolutely worth it for us to evaluate what is available for players to mix and match. You and I are not alone in wanting lots of options when making characters
And your dream of combining Orion w/ Honor Guard isn't that far fetched to me. As members of the same faction but very different species, I would imagine some cross pollination of fashion. Even Worf sported a Klingon Sash as a member of the Federation. And Klingons seem like they would be even less stringent with uniforms.
More simply put, we aren't interested in giving a lot of options that functionally don't work together, causing majore clipping. But we will consider loosening the restrictions of species specific clothing, while taking into consideration what is appropriate for the faction (again, as long as there isn't heinous clipping).
Anyway, it's something we want to evaluate, but it's great to hear input from you guys.
Yeah, that sort of thing.
You could start with losing faction restrictions for uniforms that are no faction specific.
For example the Seven of Nine uniform, which is only locked to federation because seven wore it, while at the same tiem in game the borg liberation process is available to all factions.
So the uniform should be as well. Because it is not a official starfleet uniform, it is a bio-suit to help with the liberation process skin healing.
Or the Merc uniform, kdf has a ton more mercs, or romulans then the federation, yet the merc uniform is federation.
Playing devils advocate here, since those are c-store outfits, make them sale for like 1/2 more zen for each additional faction unlock.
Would be nice if some outfits that aren't really faction "uniforms" were available to all factions. T'pol and 7 of 9 ones come to mind.
The 'current STO restrictions' are are a bit ridiculous, considering its only for *players*. There are *multiple* instances of female Orion NPCs having the thigh high TOS boots along with the 'traditional' Orion outfit.
It's good to hear there are 'updates' coming, and hopefully one will be unlocking the thigh high boots for PLAYERS, since the NPCs have had it since the game was in Beta over 4 years ago.
"Back on topic. Destinii is correct."
(Formerly Destinii until the 'Great PWE Forum Shakeup of 2012')
Any pieces from the Set uniforms would be cool, especially Omega pieces. Also some new options for alien toons would be awesome, I noticed the aliens on Risa had some new alien pieces (plus an NPC wearing the Iconian Armor :eek:) and I've also seen an alien Fed NPC with what looked like a tail, tails would be awesome too
I do kinda wonder about the Nausicaan cuirass option and a few of the others.
My character Tsin'xing
You know, for the Diplomatic KDF Bridge Officers we get from the Diplomatic commendation category, I would absolutely love to be able to put them in Starfleet Uniforms.
Odyssey Uniform on an Orion slave girl (wearing her Orion shoes, headgear, and possible shoulder pads).
That would be nice, too. You can't claim Seven's catsuit would be inappropriate for an Orion.
I'd also like to see pieces from the various armor unlocks like Omega, MACO, etc mixed into the uniform category. Though I'm sure that would involve a lot of work fixing clipping issues.
