Wife is gonna be so pissed, lol!

[Boonshniggle 0]

So my wife asked me to setup her arma 2 and dayz while she was at work cause she bought it b4 she went to bed and had to goto work.

After I went into a server and selected Female, I goto 3DP view and I am quite sure that's a male model.

So, I go to edit her profile.....there are TONS of faces to choose from and not a single one is a female :P Goto speaker options, once again, all male.

I know it's alpha, and she knows that. But to have like 50 some odd choices for faces, not one of them being female, and having someone choose their gender on their first server join. I guarantee her first response will be that rocket is a sexist :) lol! No offense rocket, not bashing you.

She's in love with this game from watching me play it with my unit buddies, but one of her first questions was can she be a female character, cause she saw nothing but male characters everywhere the whole time she has watched me play. I said, "Of course, I had to pick my gender when I joined my first server", so she was excited.

Not just cause she can be a female, but that she now felt like she was going to be the only girl playing the game. Now, she won't look like a female, and she can't be sure she is the only girl playing....double let down.

....rocket, hide, rage commin' ur way ;) jk! Im sure she'll brush it off but I foresee coming forums posts from her demanding at the very least a few female faces and one or two speaker options :P

Guys its 1.7.1 .... u can pick gender, but you cannot look like it at all, I am serious.

*edit* nvm, I am blind you said 1.7.1.1 ... thanks guys .... so its a future update then?

I confirm that you can choose gender in 1.7.1.1 as long as you want to be male. Pick male and you will be male, pick female and you will be male. So many choices.

Edit: unless the server I am in is broken, Ill check another.

[Lopz 2]

Nope, 1.7.1.1 just went live.

A forum mod locked a thread i made announcing it saying that it was already on the announcements, but not many people read there and i decided to make a thread.

It got locked.

I can't seem to be able to choose tho.

[spartan1608 0]

Well, I tried 3 servers now. All of them let you choose as long as you want to be male.

Did this seriously happen as I typed this freakin' post? lol

[Lopz 2]

Guess what, same problem still exists guys....you could always choose to be male or female on your first server join before (at least when I started playing a week and a half ago).

All appearance choices and every thing I said in my original post is still the same problem, rocket, still hide, the rage is still coming ;) So, you can choose female, but you cannot look like one, but there are a TON of male faces to choose from...for you female profile :P

Put 1 female face in before 12:00 AM EST (when she gets home from work) and ur safe bro, get to work! jk

rocket's the one with the problem on his hands not me, I didn't develop it and choose to let ppl choose female or male and make 50 some odd Male faces and not one female one :P That's all him man, he's in big trouble man :o big big trouble ;)

Actually seriously, one of the next patches, just put in at least a couple rocket... seriously.

[JohnSmith (DayZ) 1]

At least that one is not entirely Rocket's fault.

While there are various female models available in Arma all of those are severely limited in functionality. E.g. they can not wield weapons of any kind. Or even drive all vehicles because at the time Arma was created BE deemed it unnecessary and was lazy and didnt include animations for that.

This means Rocket cant just simply reuse some stock Arma female soldier models (or in this case PMC models) but has to create the whole model from scratch first - which is a shit load of extra work actually.

Be glad that he at least made one female model for dayz - and some day switching to it will hopefully work... ;)

Just tell her that, unfortunately, the only women to survive the zombie apocalypse were really, really ugly. :p
