Are you sure about that? The alternative is that we are somehow magically immortal since we don't die with the ship when it explodes in our face.

We're not immortal but our Remlock space suit protects us while we drop into an escape pod when the ship is about to be destroyed.

This is definitely the Ark B thread. Now I'm off to burn down some trees so that my leaves become worth more.

Edit : Please don't take my comment as a criticism of the OP or the thread. I agree that all hair types should be included. My concern is simply that hair is given such priority over the many significant deficiencies of the game. You can't get much more cosmetic than hair, well except for cosmetics I guess.

Yeah, but just because there are other deficiencies in the game to be addressed (and note that you will get few people to agree on which of those is most/least important!) doesn't mean people can't voice other things they feel important.

If anything this thread has ensured that the issue will be addressed in the right way at the right time. Starting with a simple solution in the near future (such as buns or braids that won't interfer with the helmet) and an eye on other styles later as it becomes convenient to do so.

I know we all like to think that if we could get the devs to just focus on "ultra important problem X" that it would be done and dusted in a week, but it just doesn't work that way - lots of departements and people are working on different things. Adding a new hairdo or two to the "to do" list of someone already being tasked with adding graphical assets in the game is not taking it any time away from those working on network coding or whatever.

You're totally right. After all, Ark A were all wiped out by a virulent disease contracted from a dirty telephone.

Seriously? 65 pages about hair?

Every new page means that, when long hair is implemented, Frontier will give us another inch* to our potential hair length. Or so the legend says, at any rate.

And I don't know if Deadpool headknifing himself really counts, because healing factor and all.

* or 2.54 centimeters if you use the non-sensible measurements. :p

This or another 65 pages about Solo vs Private vs Open? At least this is something new to discuss. Worthy of discussion too since it applies to creating your unique self in the game and it simply makes sense to have AT LEAST implied long hair for female types.

Just because you don't see it doesn't mean it's not happening. Ever see cargo loaded on your ship? Or wait half an hour to load it all in your ship? No? Same diff.

Back in my day, it took at least 30 mins to load mining fragments into my ship, and I saw it too since I had to do it manually. [wacky]

But do we or will we ever see any of these imaginary things happen? If we don't see it, it might as well not matter at all.

We do hear the "eject, eject, eject". I can imagine the rest without overt issues...though the speed of those escape pods is something to marvel at.

Maybe it should have the same transfer time as a ship/module, and play a mandatory insurance video "You done goofed, how to not screw up in the future", brought you by Pilot's Federation Insurance Consortium and the Bank of Zaonce.
