Polebreaker Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Yes it looks like someone landed a flying saucer on your shoulder or something... just awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halkyon Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 If you swap out or turn off the helmet, it's actually pretty decent. Which goes for most hats in this game, unfortunately... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorstt Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 ^this, seriously Bioware space samurai in Star Wars universe ? REALLY ? Couldnt you just make some ultimate ****** robes ? No I got it ! They want everyone to make their unique robes, thats why are the original ones so ugly. No other explanation ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merwanor Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 What, people actually use helmets and hats on a Jedi Knight? Yeah, helmets and such in this game looks beyond stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egotisticalape Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Im intentionally going for the helm first just as it looks so awe full it makes me laugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larity Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Think thats bad? Switch over to the empire side and look. BH = Power Ranger SW = Lord Zed and another set is, what was the one evil chicks name, Rita? Yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealios Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Currenly using the legs, bracers, gloves & Head (turned off ofc). Probably when i get my chest i'll rip mods out and stick em in something else. I'm just wondering who came up with the idea to make us look like some sort of weird alien/droid species Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrthlessnoob Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 Thanks for all the responses. I agree that the full suit, especially the helmet, makes you look like an alien (And I'm not talking Twi'lek or Wookie either). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MojoWaffles Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 There's only two explanations: 1. Pablo Picasso has been revived by the evil scientists at EA and has been forced to design the JK armor OR 2. They found one a Hitler clone and gave him art training before setting him loose in a design studio. Either way, take him out back and put him out of his misery for our sake, especially if he's a boy from Brazil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickomash Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 One of the most powerful beings in the universe has been forced to look like Ultraman. I am sorry Bioware/EA, I love the game, but you have to let the artist behind this mockery go. This is the worst costume/paper doll design I have ever seen. I was hoping it would be concept art, but now finding out this actually made its way into production makes me laugh. Did anyone bother testing the looks out on actual players or was this decision made behind closed doors without any player interaction? In case this post didnt make my opinion crystal clear... The new JK outfits are terrible to look at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngusFTW Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Did bioware ask bungies permission to use master chiefs armour on the guardians? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoanJorHass Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 i hope bioware make a minimalist robe set for jedi. im a bigger fan of the anakin and qui gon look from the movies than the obi wan of the clone wars. and i sure as hell pick either of those over the *insert word here* that the current armour looks like. im not saying take it out of the game. just that they should make some armour that tones it down.....alot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EzoEo Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Did bioware ask bungies permission to use master chiefs armour on the guardians? They should ask Hasbro as it resembles Bumblee from Transformers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zag_Stratos Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 1.2 proved it. Bioware needs to seriously fire that artist. I'm sorry but since Beta people have been saying that whoever is designing the stuff for JK is not doing a proper job... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likewater Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 It will be pricy but can't your rip the mods out of that armor set and put it into a better looking one. Like the old PVE armor, or if you can afford the price tag, the Legacy modless oranges? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrthlessnoob Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 It will be pricy but can't your rip the mods out of that armor set and put it into a better looking one. Like the old PVE armor, or if you can afford the price tag, the Legacy modless oranges? I believe you could, but it would indeed be pricey. When I try to take the blue-black crystal out of the battlemaster vindicator's lightsaber, it said it would cost 33k. So to take all the pieces out of all the war hero armor would be definitely a good bit of money. And plus, should we really have to? I mean couldn't they just for once make some decent looking Jedi Knight gear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOAI Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I do not know why this game has such ugly and gaudy looking armor. I prefer the simple look. Take a look at the Star Wars movies especially Luke (Ep V and VI), Qui-Gon (Ep I), Obi-Wan (Ep I, II, and III), Aalya Secura (Ep II and III), Mace WIndu (Ep I, II, and III), Anakin (Ep II and III (before his lava bath)), and all the other jedi in Ep I, II, and III. Even Satele Shan has a descent looking outfit. I know BW wants to make the outfits from PvP look unique, but that can be done without making them ugly, flashy, and gaudy. KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID should be the motto for all Jedi clothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prokonto Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 U must realise that SW universe took his roots in 50's and 60's of XX century sci-fi & in fact that gear look quite canonic. I know that in our times its look little bit crude & strange but i started liked that look after i realise that. Still whatever to me because one kind of look i wanna give all my money just to get is that one... http://i.imgur.com/qwUmu.jpg[/img]"]http://i.imgur.com/qwUmu.jpg But its not that fairytale:-P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziffron Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 3 things must be done: 1: the "artist" must be let go and hire someone who will do the knight justice 2: create a set of iconic robes jedi wore in the movies so they dont look like a *********** power ranger! 3: Hood Toggle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrthlessnoob Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 wut u mean u ppl? Well in retrospect I don't think the space samurai look is that bad, especially when you compare it to this new war hero gear, the helmet for the most part. Sure space samurai looks a bit goofy but at least it somewhat connects. Jedi Knights are in some ways based on the Samurai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primarch_PWnD Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) well there are ways to make it resemble a samurai without actually making it look like a samurai in a retro space suit What would be wrong with just using a samurai silhouette and filling it in with robes: one "leaf" down the front from the waist, one on each side, and one off the back of the belt, add the heavy chest piece with shoulder armor (using silhouette for the samurai shape), hood down, add a cool etching on the armor, and bam, you've got something that reminds you of a samurai without actually looking like a samurai..... I'm not an artist, and that idea sounds better than the new looks. Who actually is doing the art? Bioware hasn't really said anything about the widespread dislike of this art direction.
