In canon, Vader's outfit is supposed to be a) nearly 4,000 years after the GGW b) even more advanced than Grevious' armor c) one of a kind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisweaver Posted September 27, 2013 Author Share Posted September 27, 2013 We have ewoks and people wearing outfits of long dead people I don't think its asking too much. I have no problem paying $150 for this armor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xakthul Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 That's not the point. The point is also: We have probably at least 100-something different unique armors, helmets, etc. that look way cooler than Vader's glorified nebulizer of a bodysuit.

Kurgun Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Would love to see this in game but not as much as i'd love to see some Mandalorian shock trooper armor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisweaver Posted September 27, 2013 Author Share Posted September 27, 2013 People pay that much for the black mount podracer. My guildie bought 3 hypercrates just to get the rep. I wouldn't get the crates for the podracer but I definitely would for that suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theUndead Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 and according to lore, light sabers were not specific to classes. according to lore, there were no classes. according to lore... this is a video game. It's also a Starwars video game with a time frame. Even you yourself say in your signitrure you don't know it so why are you commenting on something you don't know? As to the OP, no just no.

JPryde Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Okay, give the op the Vader Suit.... without the helmet though. Seriously, some things are just a tad to iconic to be given to the masses of lemmings. All the other lore stuff, that already is in game is basically from some other game or book or comic... but not from the movies. Vaders suit is something everyone on street would recognize. If someone would walk the streets in Malaks or Revans mask, people would think they are a fool.. If someone were walking with Vaders mask, they would expect some starwars happening. List of things that should NEVER be in game: - Yoda's species (playable) - Vaders suit - C3PO and/or R2D2 - Death star miniatures - Stormtrooper outfit (original from the movies) - Wookiee (in any way, kind or shape) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alec_Fortescue Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Sith Champion set is clearly Vader's look-a-like and inspired by his armor. Btw Darth Vader's armor is more likely to come than an iconic, timeless and, according to lore, thousands of years old Jedi vests and robes we saw in the movies.

Eldeos Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 How can you explain a suit that's like 4000 years in the future existing lore wise? You can't. Stop being an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vader's look and helmet was inspired by ancient Sith war droids, which predate TOR. So there is no absolutely no reason for why an armor, similar to Vader's, not to be introduced.

MoskitoMando Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 No. That suit doesn't exist for another 3,000 years, no way no. Malgus's gear would be epic though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZaneG Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 actually in regards to the OP suggestion. According to the revenge of the Sith Book Darth Vaders Armor is based upon a n ancient Sith Battle Droid so technically it is not a one of the kind armor. However I do not feel that this armor would be good for the game. Besides it would be pointless unless everytime you took a step you heard his breathing. In that case yes I would so pay for he amor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even you yourself say in your signitrure you don't know it so why are you commenting on something you don't know? As to the OP, no just no. because it was the "hardcore" don't change a thing, stick to all lore types that almost took this game under. There are not enough of you hardcore canon users to support this game. This game only exists to make money. Either it adapts, like it did when it went free to play and allowed for open customization, or it gets canceled. Here is my psychology when playing a MMO I enjoy. Give players the appearance customizations they wish it if is profitable, if it is possible, and if it has no direct impact on combat. I do not care about lore, I do not care what the developers think, if those three needs can be met, they should be, because it extends the life of the game as a whole which is more important than a fanatics ego.

bionamaster Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Won't happen in SWTOR, too lore-oriented. Could see it happening in CWA, though..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ako_and_Riko Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Personally I don't give a damn about Vaders armor, it looks nice and intimidating in the movies and a few games but in SW-TOR we don't need it, I think devs should focus more on fixing skins and glitches that are now showing up and maybe more common or elegant suits ratehr than battle hardened armors. For example, go against a boss in an OP wearing a nightgown outfit and an assault cannon that looks totally like an umbrella, or a tuxedo for a melee player with a cane instead of a lightsaber or something I could really use more customization options rather than some vader's armor.

ceickerman Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) I love how you read thru this and people still argue about Ewoks running all over the galaxy which if you look at it it's wrong given the story of Treek. She ALONE made it off of Endor. There is only ONE Ewok running around the galaxy similar to how there is only one Kira Carson, Khem Val, etc running around the galaxy. As for Vader's armor I say no because in this time period it simply doesn't exist yet. Sure have some "ancient sith battle droid" inspired armoring but not a carbon copy of Vader.

Valdrane Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 (edited) I'd vote no a Darth Vader outfit, but I would vote yes to a Starkiller Sith Master outfit from FU II. Edited October 10, 2013 by Valdrane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there is no absolutely no reason for why an armor, similar to Vader's, not to be introduced. There's possibly a very good reason: licensing. I don't know the licensing details any more than you do, but I would not be surprised if the licensing disallows BWEA to put certain stuff from the movies into the game.
