Ryuji_Sukata Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 There are a lot of masks and helmets that overwrite hooded robes in this game. It's especially noticable on important NPCs. What I mean in particular is stuff like this: Throughout the whole video, Revan is sporting a hood. When he puts on his mask to start fighting you(which USED to have his hood work with the mask and felt INFINITELY more amazing), the hood disappears and you're left with...an odd image of Revan. Just about every image of Revan(beyond KotOR except in scenes when he sported the mask), he always sported a hood. The mystery of his character seemed to work better with them. If you look in this video, you'll see him sporting the mask and the hood at the same time. Now you tell me, which feels more epic? I'd wager that you'd say the hood + the mask. Oh, also, the Emperor in the Jedi Knight story does the same thing. He used to have a hood but...not anymore for some reason. Here's a video showing how he looked with the hood and helmet together: What's the deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrMelhattan Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) Yeah, that was weird, seeing him with just the helmet. I also noticed during the scene when I ran the Flashpoint last night and the day before that two Revans were rendered: one with his back to you, hood up, and one facing you, hood down and mask on and lightsaber drawn. Did anyone else notice this? I hope they do fix this for the future. Frankly I think I look downright silly wearing certain helmets without the hoods also being up.

Did anyone else notice this? That's because everyone could have hood over thier masks in betas, but it was removed in one of the pre-release betatests.

Kedan Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Just another terrible design decision, just like deciding that since some people's systems couldn't handle it, they would remove high end textures for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanupKrew Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Why did they take hoods over masks out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deshiel Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Because sides of the helmet/masks vere often leaking throught the material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
