Rakghouls aren't zombies, they are mutants. Just responding to those saying they are zombies, they are not.

I dont know, I rather like them. More so the black with red lighting, and Ive already seen people with names ljke Rinzler and varients of it. And the Outlaw set already looks very Tron like I thought.

No, she wasn't even getting attacked. Once again, please let me know when someone in any of the movies or books took a beating wearing a slave outfit.

Honestly, you need to stop splitting hairs when talking about outfits breaking immersion. Either

For clarifications sake, I don't think people are calljng them zombies. I think they are saying Rakghouls are the SW universes parallel to zombies.

Ah, but Rakghouls spread like Zombie Virus. Anyways, that's kind of off-topic.

As to the OP wanting Jedi Robes like in the Movies versus the Armor we have, the Jedi Order prior to the Ruusan Reformation wore Armor during times of War.

No one would wear the slave-girl outfit into a brutal game of team vs. team fighting to the death, but people wear them in Huttball, so I think this is acceptable.

After all, it's not like making a black skinsuit with glowing red lights is BEYOND the technology level for this time, is it?

And am I the only one to take a screenshot next to a cool looking NPC?
Number of "Jedi geared up like a Trooper or Sith" I have seen = a fairly healthy amount.
Number of Commandos I have seen wearing Imp-side medium armor = absolutely 0.
My "weak assertion" is just the simplest explanation (which, as SCIENCE tells us always has the highest probability of being accurate). I'm not extrapolating crazy theories about future CM additions, game mechanic changes, etc, just calling it like I see it.

I see one screenshot with 3 characters in it: 2 Gree NPCs and one unknown, standing in formation. Chances that a dev put on a future set of gear, lined his toon up with the Gree, and snapped away? Reasonable. Chances that a dev snapped a pic of an already in-game set-piece without any set up time? Much MORE reasonable.

Again no one is saying they are zombies, and no one is arguing that they aren't mutants. They are simply saying that they are the SW galaxy's equivalent to a zombie. And before you post the SW zombie link again an try arguing semantics and splitting hairs, most people know nothing or very little about them in the lore so they see the Rakghouls as an equivalent too them.
