I wish Anet would create some new body models.

1) In Prophesies, there were 6 unique female body models, one for each profession.

2) In Factions, there Anet added 1 unique female body model, the assassin. The Ritualist recycled the elementalist body.

3) In Nightfall, there are 0 unique female body models. The female paragon and dervish both recycle the elementalist body.

So there are now 4 professions using the female elementalist body model. Kinda lame.

What I have Noticed: All Female casters have there legs together, All Female Melee have their legs apart.

Does Not mean they are recycling.

Besides, Content is Expensive. I suppose People will truely stop compainning when A character creation system such as the one in City of heroes / Villains is implemented.

Mmm , how is it not recycling like he says? They are re-using the same body posture/stance as he says hence recycle.

What I mean is:

Just because he says theya re recycling, does not mean they are.

How many Slim female body types can you draw out before repeating yourself / making them similar?

Even if they are recycling, who cares, Stop looking for faults where they're are none. As long as they heads are different and each have ther distinct looks. I mean, you can easily spot the difference between necro Paragon Ele Rt just by the head and hair style.

If they were recycling, they'd all have the exact same moves and dances.

They do have the same moves. All the emotes on the new classes are recycled emotes from the original 6, with even them having similar between. I'm not too concerned with the 'recycled' models, if that truly is the case, I'm more concerned with them not creating any new emotes, or new spins on old emotes.

Especially /taunt. That's a fun one, and there's only like three different versions for each sex on ten classes. C'mon! Some variety, here!

Would you complain if they hung you with a brand new rope? That seems trivial to me, and not worthy of public rant, but if it means that much to you...Nike on

ooooooooo k...

Well, seriously, would you rather their time be spent making new models for every campaign, or working on other more interesting new material? Heck, if you spend that much time watching your characters emotes, and actually complaining about it, then you're not focusing on the game.

You can't see the forest for the trees.

That is because in melee combat, keeping your legs spaced makes you faster to avoid/block attacks or make faster/better attacks. If you notice, all melee classes male and female keep their legs spaced.

Are you seriously responding to me, or the OP? For one, I said I didn't care about the models, which is time-consuming, I agree. I did, however say the emotes should be updated and some new ones added, but what's wrong with that?

"if you spend that much time watching your characters emotes, and actually complaining about it, then you're not focusing on the game." - WTF? I could say the exact same thing about everything in the game.

See how this works: "if you spend that much time watching your characters armor/items/enemies' appearence/various other content, and actually complaining about it, then you're not focusing on the game."

So does that mean the devs are working too much on all of that content? Should we just have re-hashed old content over and over? No new items, or armor or anything just because it's not deemed interesting by certain people?

Who sets these priorities and what is deemed important/necessary/interesting? You?

No one has boobs as big as an ele!

N E D M · Sep 25, 2006, 07:27 AM // 07:27

the ritualist female is not the same model as the ele.

the riualist has MUCH bigger boobs.

Rallick · Sep 25, 2006, 07:34 AM // 07:34

When you mention it Dervish female does seem to be a bit flat chested in comparison to ele. I guess they try to differentiate the female models by bra size

Btw, is it just me or does that ele henchie in nightfall had some extra *ekhm* equipment on her

floppinghog · Sep 25, 2006, 07:43 AM // 07:43

who cares if they are or not? seriously.

male dervish and male paragon are totally new. they both have new animation for nearly all weapons, - i tested.

i may be a bit against females and not know it, cause having a decent looking girl in a robe, holding a scythe is just... makes no sense, should be ugly and badass woman COME ON!!!1

Whispering Siren · Sep 25, 2006, 08:04 AM // 08:04

I wish they'd recycle one of the other models... I personally dislike the ele model. Angle of her shoulders, large chest, the way she stands, etc. The other models are cuter, more unique, less Barbie.

I understand them not making new models for each profession (though that would be nice) but at least stop with the female ele already!

Makkert · Sep 25, 2006, 08:06 AM // 08:06

rit female != ele female

haven't watched the para and dervish enough to know about those.

arcanemacabre · Sep 25, 2006, 08:12 AM // 08:12

I agree that the Rit is definately not using the Ele model. It's new, pretty sure. The Paragon was assumed to be using the Ele model, both male and female, but I don't know how true that is. The Dervish looks to be the male/female Ranger models.

This is all speculation, really, and matters not, IMO.

Rallick · Sep 25, 2006, 08:43 AM // 08:43

I just want them to recycle the Little Thom model, I want to make myself a chubby warrior and get a drunkard title

Henchman · Sep 25, 2006, 08:51 AM // 08:51

Yeah I agree with the OP.
The instant I saw the female Dervish model, I realized it was exactly the same as the ele. I am not talking about the emotes- I am talking about the posture in which the charcter stands, the way they run, and how the cast spells.
Asides from the faces (and perhaps the chest....), they are both identical.
