I just realize GTA doesn't have any Mountainman beards...

We need mountain man beards

[Harry Mckay]

I just assumed that actual beards would cause issues with outfits, so they elected not to use them. It sucks, but really a fairly minor issue.

Why not just do what they do for the hair? Trim it down or hide it altogether when wearing clothing that could clip

[Harry Mckay]

Maybe it caused unforseen issues they couldn't find a way around? I don't know, I'm not one of the developers. :P

Perhaps it's a memory issue? I don't know what goes into the construction of hair and thus a beard. Perhaps it could cause issues?

it would get cold having a vag for a face, very unrealistic
the devs just needs to eat more meat and cut down on the milk & soy

If you want to get even more manlier Nordic music, if that's even possible XD (by that I mean heavier) then put on Sabaton. Preferably Man of War or Swedish Pagans
Or maybe their cover of Amon Amarth's Twilight of the Thunder God
My preference of music anyways

Technically (altough simplified) speaking it would cause several problems:
- The bears would be meshes and they would clip through everything or look wrong, considering every player has a unique face, there are million of combinations for faces, so they would have to make millions of meshes that fit the faces or otherwise they would float in mid-air or look weird. Hence why the bears and hairs in Online for players are just textures while the NPC's and the main character in SP have meshes.
Hence also why there's no proper long hair for female characters, something that annoys me since i rather long hair in real life and i want the same for my avatar.

- It could probably lead to even more performance issues. Textures are not as demanding. Considering the PS4 and XboxOne already struggle with Online, having frequent, sometimes even massive, frame drops in the City and never even reaching 30 FPS it would put a lot more strain on the hardware if there were 30 people with bears, long hair and all that in the session.

- It also would be a lot of work. There's a reason why hair vanishes or gets simplified/changed with Helmets, Hats and everything in the game, it would be a lot of work to design a texture for every helmet/hat/beanie/cap/whatever+hair combination that exists. As mentioned above tehre are millions of combination in the character creator for the face. It would probably take years to make something fitting for all face combinations.

Eh, bears (as in the gay variety) usually wear beards, they are known for that :-p

[Mr. Christmas]

As someone who literlaly lived on a mountain, with only solar pwoer for electricity and needing to haul my water let me assure you this:

Those beards are utter ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Anything longer than 1.5 inches or so provides no heating, and gets in the way. Those Duck Dynasty phonies always annoyed me, and now that their show is done they can shave their faces and go abck to the effete country club they came from.

[Mr. Christmas]

Same thing with "bikers" who have those beards.

Sometihng that long, when it's not flipping up due to an errant wind and blocking your view, would catch enough bugs in ten minutes that you'd need to spend an hour picking them out.

♥♥♥♥♥boy wannabes.

[Ares]

It still looks cool though.
