As threads go this one has been the most entertaining in a while ☺

Suprised it hasn't been locked by now!

I am pretty amazed at that also.....it seemed like it would at some point as some people seemed quite insistent at getting personal and imo doing so in an attempt to derail the topic and get it locked.
 
Eh just make it realistic, allow people to have long hair but disable the life-support if the canopy blows and it's not tied down in a sensible manner.

In a game that tries to base a lot of it's substance in hard science, I think this choice allows for a fair amount of realism as people WILL still have long hair despite the grievous safety concerns.

...I also have no doubt that in this distant future, people would have been killed due to poor fashion choices.

And why can't a hair compatible breathing system be possible? Is it lore that it is not possible?
 
It's an issue with the Remlock helmet activating when your canopy explodes. It swings up from your collar over your head. Long hair could prevent a proper seal.

That's an easily solved problem. The helmet could have razor-sharp edges to trim any hair that's in the way or use high voltage to singe any stray hairs (although the smell of burnt hair filling your helmet might make you wish for the first solution). :D

Nano-machines in the hair retract the strands into a bun as the remlock goes up. Or make the remlock a mask, it only needs to cover the mouth and nose and provide air.

Getting those braids, plaits and buns looking right takes a huge amout of time. And considerable amounts of hairspray.

Not to mention the shampoo. I have to imagine that they'll need several fully loaded Type-9s to get the bounce and shine just right. And maybe pirate some of Bluehair's products...

I think I smell a community goal.
 
Now you've done it, people. They are adding long hairstyles and it will delay the Beta to Monday.
*grumbles*

semi new to the game, how do you see your avatar in game? how do you customize your character?

You don't, as of now. However next week the Beta for the update 2.3 which will bring that feature begins.
