Blackavaar Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 The Bounty Hunter and Trooper stuff doesn't look bad, but then it doesn't look that different from some other sets that already exist in the game. The rest of it is more garbage I will never put on my characters. Seriously, I wish they would stop making gear that looks like it was ripped directly from some fantasy MMO and slightly modified to make it look futuristic.

MidichIorian Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 How do they stats'wise differ from BH/campaign? Are they using 64 mods? Anyone know the main stat increase? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambunctious Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 They really need to quit outsourcing their art to asian countries. That's what it looks like anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imbrium Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 why don't they go to something that everyone associates with Jedi/Sith for those classes? the only set that I see as being more like its class in the movies is the Smuggler.

Seriously, I wish they would stop making gear that looks like it was ripped directly from some fantasy MMO and slightly modified to make it look futuristic. It does not look any different than whats in game, because it is already in game. Its only color changed armor. So much for the more Star Wars looking armors that they were working on months ago. With all the "races" being the same skeleton with a slightly different head, why is it so difficult to add a few new pieces of armor? I take it that this "new" armor release means that a dye system will never be implemented- because then future new armor releases, would actually have to be new armor!

Darth_Precursor Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Are you serious? What is this bullcrap? Re-color pre-existing gear and call it a new tier? What???? WHAT!?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insomnio Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 India and Poland. Which countries made which sets? I bet I could guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thornsbane Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 This REALLY annoys me as well, and I also hate how people complain about the smallest things, but the extremely limited number of looks for end game high-tier gear is very frustrating and uninspiring. I work in 3d and know its not really that much work for a professional to whip up a set of armour and adjust it to a few different body types. Sure it takes a bit of time, but for the amount of pleasure it would give all the players it seems VERY lazy not to, especially for a whole new tier. For me the excitment of having a new tier of gear to work for is almost completely negated by the fact its just a reskin of old gear. Meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcdoogle Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Interesting. Nice mustard and ketchup dispenser thing going on there, Consular. Not just the consular, 4 out of the 8 classes has the ketchup mustard theme. What a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hessen Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 (edited) Most people knew it was going to be a recolouring, but that doesn't excuse how horrific the design is, how basic the colour themes are and how little people want to wear them. I know it all sets up nicely to sell "proper" cosmetics on the F2P shop, but it's just the whole endgame armour sets are just plainly a huge disappointment.

walterskinner Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Everyone seems to forget that Tionese, Columi and Rakata were all just recolors. This isn't a new tier, just a step up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambunctious Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 There's no telling how many armor models they removed since closed beta. I would love to have many of those pieces back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassfu Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Everyone seems to forget that Tionese, Columi and Rakata were all just recolors. This isn't a new tier, just a step up. Or that they can take out mods and put them in items they like , but lets just keep the **** fit going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That all came out at once, BH and WH had their release. This is suppose to be a NEW TIER. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTREDEN Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 how else do you expect "frequent content updates" to be frequent if they don't copy and paste. Seriously though, SWG armor was better than this crap. Why is it in this day and age that we have to look like condiments. Why can't we look like toppings instead. BS. Man the eff up BW.

GarfieldJL Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 India and Poland. Poland is in Europe... Anyways, I think many of us could come up with a better design for many of these armors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalkingDinosaur Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 (edited) Though the colors are atrocious people need to stop complaining like they're being forced to wear it. >.> Ctrl + Right Click does wonders.
