Sleggar Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I saw this in a loading screen and I think this could be a hint at a new race in an upcoming expansion. Is that the same race as Nadia Grell? http://i.imgur.com/PG1et.jpg Larger: http://imgur.com/fdhL0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marak Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I'd play it. I'd need new slots to do it, but I'd do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJemegency Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Couldn't that just be one of the already in-game races just face painted or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleggar Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 (edited) Couldn't that just be one of the already in-game races just face painted or something? That's what I thought at first. Or that it was just a mix of someones tattoos (zabrak) and dark side alignment, but I don't believe the hair and the face markings support those theories. I think that the face markings match that of what is seen on Nadia Grell (similar markings on the cheeks and eyes). I can't find any more images of her race to see if they have skin that light though. I suppose it could also be a combination of legacy unlocks as well..

Saltybill Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I noticed that too! looks cool! almost... pandaish... XD jk jk! but I'd really love to play a droid class! you IA people know what I'm talkin bout! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neopopulas Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 it could just be early art assets, that is, at some point there was a model that looked like that and it was used for the loading-hints and was never changed later in development.

I suppose they could have a placeholder image for the character's portrait that they have had since early development, but I thought it was interesting since the hint and graphic of the rest of the actionbar are both post 1.2.

rickyard Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Couldn't that just be one of the already in-game races just face painted or something? Just like the rest of the "races"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restepor Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 It could be a part of a legacy update. If you get full affliction with a companion you can be that race, that would be cool (but unlikely). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terminova Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Just like the rest of the "races"? It's not Bioware's fault George Lucas made most of the species in SW humanoids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyteblades Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 It might be a human with the sith tatoos also as they have some that looks alot like the ones she has on her face. They arnt exactly like it but a few of them are pretty simular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedimkmknight Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 It's not Bioware's fault George Lucas made most of the species in SW humanoids. You seem to be thinking of Star TREK. Star Wars has a much more varied collection of alien species. Bioware simply did not choose to use any of them for playable species because story-wise it's more difficult for the typical player to relate to their character if it's not mostly humanoid.

Ronamo Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Nadia Grell's species is Sarkhai. Force sensitives are extremely rare among them (based on the Consular storyline), and they seem fairly insular, so wouldn't have a tradition of smuggling or bounty hunting, and they're decidedly Republic, so being agents is out too. I think in this case, a cigar is just a cigar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISDEnterprise Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 If so why should we care? It's just another human with something slightly different like facepaint or horns or blue or red skin or whatever. Where are my INTERESTING ones? Wookies? Droids?? I'd rather be a stupid Jawa than most of these species! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluerodian Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 I sure as hell hope that isn't the upcoming species. I'd rather play something more interesting than yet another human-reskin knockoff. Bioware's reasons be damned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
