Sexy stealth killer has "Bond Villain" written all over her.

[Baneblade]

Female cloakers being sexy is fine and relatively realistic. That is a dat ass for sure.

She looks more like a red head, oh wait, you said 'bond.' ;)

collar and cuffs don't match, if you know what I mean,


super sexy pic and I mean both curves and stealth armour design :D

[Poser]

It like Mass Effect 1 art. You know before it became Gears of War.

Wow, this hadn't occurred to me, but is extremely accurate!

[Sabot]

First week of PS2... female infils rule the world, as everybody is trying to shag them rather than kill them.

But yeah... looks awesome like always. Now lets just hope the in game version will look just as cool.

[moosepoop]

thats a FAT ASS

DAMMMM

True, but it still is a very fine Sci-Fi universe.

Don't worry i'm sure it will look worse by the time the 3D model is done :p

I love the look of it.

[DownloadFailed]

Mmmm... Quite nice...
Now, I'm all for sexy video game chicks, but I'd rather the female character's looks be focused more on practicality rather than sexuality. This IS a war that they're fighting in, after all.

Indeed. They should have kept it starship troopers style with regards to men vs women.

[WellWisherELF]

Indeed. They should have kept it starship troopers style with regards to men vs women.

ALL of the Infiltrator classes have skin-tight armor, so it's not like this armor was specifically designed for females. Anyways, where do you expect her "assets" to go?

[EightEightEight]

Very nice

[NoDachi]

You see this is the thing, you have misjudged expectations on what women actually look like, unless you want the game model to be just another lust object?

[Bravix]

I am quite curious as to how she has such a nice rack and bubble ass but is skinny everywhere else.

Actually, we're Vanu. High tech implants. She has a part time job at the local VS strip bar. 'Nuff said.

[capiqu]

Oh but some people get Dark Light just so they can watch cloaker porn.

[vVRedOctoberVv]

Stealth sex! :P

[Xyntech]

Damn, and I thought the TR female stealth concept was DAT ASS.

Superior VS technology wins the war on erectile disfunction.

I definitely suspect that they will get shot twice as often while their cloak is actually active.

How DARE a female take care of herself well!
She must use make up to cover everything and gimmicks that mess with her assists then bitch when no one wants a clown!

That model is not even freaking anime standards. more like a decent female who took care of herself. Hell the chest is like a B-C cup and the rears more average for someone wearing fitted tights.

So I'm going with this.

And here was me thinking we could have had a mature discussion on the over-sexualisation of women in video games.

I should have known better.

[Furret]

So i'm thinking we slightly redesign the vs female cloaking suits to just make the suits invisible, not the player. Anyone agree?

[Ratstomper]

And here was me thinking we could have had a mature discussion on the over-sexualisation of women in video games.

Well, the proportions of the character in the art are correct. Maybe it's best not to bring it up when there isn't an example of it.

Now, if we wanted to talk about the general lack of tact and civility among males, that may be a more fitting discussion for this thread.

Seriously guys, I don't need to know what you think of how women look or how you... use... that image. Self-control is self-mastery, gentlemen.

[DarkChiron]

And here was me thinking we could have had a mature discussion on the over-sexualisation of women in video games.

I should have known better.

Go peddle that stuff on a forum discussing Lollipop Chainsaw or Bayonetta. This is a game where they've consistently down played sexualizing the females. But one female in a skin-tight outfit (the guy model's in one too, but no one cared then) and it's suddenly "Man these devs are such whore mongers".

It's sad.

[Forsaken One]

You mean bullshit mostly started by a bunch of stupid people who claim to want equality to hide the fact they push for everything to be in their favor?

As for over-sexualisation, a female not being flat or fat does not make it over-sexualized.

The talk became immature when someone posted a hating message about a decent model.

I think the whole thread started out immature and just never improved. While I don't think this is an example of sexualization in video games, It's obvious the thread has no real relevance at best, and is creepy/sad as fuck at worst.

I do admit Planetside has done a sterling job on avoiding over-sexualizing the female models, and this concept art is nothing significant compared to what is usually the case.

My point ultimately was - this picture was overly sexualized, because it only really got a sexualized response, based upon its sexual characteristics and nothing more. That is not arguable.

It's more of a critique of gamers' perceptions in general. Maybe I didn't articulate that.

The unrealistic part is the skinny her torso is in comparison to her boobs and ass. And don't go telling me that's a muscle toned ass, cause it sure as hell ain't lol.

I'm not complaining, I think they did a good job of keeping females from looking like men but not overdoing it and going Korean RPG on us.

[Aberdash]

And here was me thinking we could have had a mature discussion on the over-sexualisation of women in video games.

I should have known better."This woman looks attractive why must games always turn women into sex objects!". It's not even worth arguing with you people.

Miss feminist troll I highly doubt you would have said anything if the comments were to a picture of some ugly fat person who can't be bothered to take care of themselves.

The comments don't make the picture overly-sexualized. The comments show freedom of speech and the ability to have a opinion of that which is a individual.

[Ratstomper]

It's more of a critique of gamers' perceptions in general. Maybe I didn't articulate that.

Then I would agree with you.

Sexualization is inevitable to some degree. Humans are hard-wired to see it, but that doesn't mean we have to turn into a bunch of obnoxious, drooling mouth-breathers when we see someone attractive.

Again I'll say: Self-control is self mastery, gentlemen.

[FPClark]

White Knights defending cgi girls. Man I sure do love the interenet. Vanu tech always has had the nicest curves...Why should the cloakers be any different?

[Xyntech]

Are you implying that I didn't DAT ASS when I saw the first pictures of the male TR infiltrators?

Seriously, that man has a fucking ass on him. I'm not even that gay compared to most VS, but god damn.

Soldiers in uniform are sexy, regardless of people sexualizing them further. An outfit that happens to be skintight is just that much more bound to catch a few glances.

No fun allowed I guess. It's the people who like to jokingly cat call a piece of concept art who are immature, not the people who have to crusade against every aspect of society that they find even mildly offensive. I guess we all really learned a lesson today :rolleyes:

What, Tera's high-elf is a completely balanced and realistic specimen of the female body

It's just nice when games don't rely on male sex and power fantasies.

But as I said, planetside has been awfully mature so far.

It's fucking art.

'fucking' art eh? Please, do go on. I'm very interested in learning about this new subculture of art. What exactly separates the standard 'art' from 'fucking art'?

You need to take a chill pill. I could give a shit how realistic it is or isn't. I was only making a comment based on the comment I quoted.

[FPClark]

No male power fantasies in Planetside 2? Oh wow, I'm glad you told me now. I was hoping there would be tanks and combat aircraft and gunplay in this game. Well I'm fucking dropping this shit today if its not going to include all of that!

Sex bad! Violence good! The American way!

Best thread derailing ever. Very entertaining to watch the train wreck. How long until the lock?

[Bravix]

And you're making an assumption! And you know what happens when you assume... :p

I played off the 'fucking' part because I felt it was entirely unnecessary for you to use. I told you to take a chill pill because of the way you lashed out at me for pointing something out. Even though I said I didn't mind it in the next paragraph (you left that part out of the quote of course though lol).

*fixed for you's :p

[PhoenixDog]

It's just nice when games don't rely on male sex and power fantasies.

This is obviously an attractive model. Why? Because of the style of the VS outfits. VS are based around curves. And curves on a female figure such as the one designed is sexy, to both men in general as well as society. This model doesn't exhibit the stereotypical macho-man look like many games do. She merely has a very attractive figure. She is also thin which is a bit of a requirement for an infiltrator. Don't see many 300lbs men sneaking around much in skin-tight suits, do you? (Pictures a fat spiderman...Shudders).

Again...Men are men. This 3D model of the VS female infil is attractive. Men enjoy attractive female figures, whether in real life or fantasy. And whether this is a futuristic first person shooter, it's still fantasy.

[FPClark]

Being American, I have never understood why its ok to show amazing amounts of violence but god forbid if there is a nipple. Such silly logic. Cencorship at all is pretty lame in my book though.

Of course there will be power fantasies involved, of course people will find ways to sexualise things.

[Ratstomper]

Mr rat. compliment =/= hate

I never said it did. A good number of the comments in this thread aren't compliments, they're obnoxious cat calls directed at concept art.

What many people don't understand is that there are a metric crap-ton of people out there who act like this in real life, to real people. It's always awkward for the subject (understandably so) and makes anyone doing it look like a total fucking tool. I don't want you to think for a second that I'm saying this for the sake of a piece of art, I'm mentioning it for you. All I'm saying is you may be associating yourself with people you may not want to associate yourself with. I can't stop you from doing what you want, but you should know that the premise of this thread is pretty pathetic.

And if you ARE one of those people who act like this to real people, then fucking shame on you. You are bad and you should feel bad.

[NoDachi]

Threads are always fun when a feminist/white knight shows up.

Case point.

Apparently I'm a feminist because I thought a lot of the comments were ridiculous.

Characters that are designed to be attractive are attractive.

But I suspect you really don't understand what I've been saying all along, because this has absolutely nothing to do with anything.

any game really. A random rpg could have a freaking female orc with a hanging gut and a feminist will appear and bitch about shit just because a lot of people don't have the balls to say anything to them because they are females or won't defend freedom of rights and views because feminism is about females. There is also the lack of understanding people have of what feminism really is and what views it has because the total bullshit "equality" stuff they push.

[Aberdash]

Characters that are designed to be attractive are attractive.

But I suspect you really don't understand what I've been saying all along, because this has absolutely nothing to do with anything.You were complaining about gamers turning females into sex objects. What really happened was people were saying they thought the woman was attractive. You admit to doing the same. Others are just more vocal about it.

[FPClark]

I don't believe in what you believe in. You're different from me! Things that are different to me are wrong! I am right in everything I believe in!

There's a distinct difference between finding a character in a videogame attractive and making a whole thread about it in a forum where everyone can look like horny kids together. Noone will care about the former, the latter is just tactless and serves no purpose (besides making the community look ridiculous).

[Bravix]

Didn't assume anything, just said that's how you acted. I also did not "lash out" at you.

You assumed that I thought you were angry. So yes, you did assume :p I just said that you need to take a chill pill. Seeing as you had just swore at me, I think it's a very appropriate response.

As for lashing out, call it what you will, but you singled out something I personally said (well, typed) and disagreed while throwing profanity in. I simply found it humorous that all you could say was that, "it's fucking art." It's just so insightful!

Feel free to say something back, but I'm gonna go ahead and get back on topic lol.

In regards to the white knights who came out to protect the digital female's feelings (lol), I feel I must quote myself.

Well for me, I was considering how sweet the overall Vanu aesthetics are on the whole, and it's nice to see an Infiltrator that doesn't look quite so armored. It just looked.... weird to me to see them tromping around with metal plates stuck to them in the NC and TR factions.

Also I bet she has a butterface. :D

Apparently you read minds? You make it look like all we cared about was the model's physical 'features'. I think I can speak for the majority here when I say that most of the comments were lighthearted. Had the picture just been a chick in standard spandex with a nice ass and rack, I doubt everyone would be happy to see it in game.

Well, they'd be happy to see it probably, but I...well....hmmm.

@NoDachi

"I wanted a serious discussion. "

Video game forums aren't usually a good place for this.

[DarkChiron]

Thinking is an action. By thinking it you are sexualizing it.

I think it would be worth looking up some philosophical papers about whether a person can convince themselves of something, and how people become convinced of something.

It would be a better idea, I feel, to chastise people on the tactless expression of it more than their thinking it.

Just my thought.

[TheSaltySeagull]

This thread certainly delivered on multiple levels. A piece of concept art for a video game depicting a curvy but proportional woman in a skin tight outfit. And then a slew of "white knights" to come in and tell us we should all be ashamed for sexually exploiting the poor virtual girl.

I am sure she is just a single mother attempting to put herself through video game college right guys?

bottom line I see worse then this when I go to the local mall in real life so if you are gonna forum crusade against sexualized women in video games maybe you should choose a game that actually does it? This chick has a good but perfectly normal figure and is wearing a skin tight outfit. Nobody mentions that the men in this game are all buff and also in skin tight outfits and nobody is crusading about the sexualization of men!

If you think this is bad you people would die if you saw korean games like tera.

My level of seriousness was referencing starship troopers...

Oh I get it, you are just trolling.
Feminism= trolling that sadly effects both real life and art. :(

I will now add my main picture about this feminism, sexualizing, and rights crap.

http://us3.memecdn.com/women-logic_o_356589.jpg

This chick has a good but perfectly normal figure and is wearing a skin tight outfit. Nobody mentions that the men in this game are all buff and also in skin tight outfits and nobody is crusading about the sexualization of men!

Its what feminism does. Its one-sided bullshit making a big deal out of something that honestly is fine.
I support freedom of art. Guys like Gears of war? don't care. Girls like Bayonetta, cool. Don't like it, don't play it. DO NOT however bitch about it thinking you have the right to censor it or stuff like it.

[Bravix]

I think it would be worth looking up some philosophical papers about whether a person can convince themselves of something, and how people become convinced of something.

It would be a better idea, I feel, to chastise people on the tactless expression of it more than their thinking it.

Just my thought.

Your engrish hurts my brain >.< I had to re-read it to get what you were trying to say lol.

Person is singular and themselves is plural. It totally threw my brain into a loop when I read it lol. You then used two 'somethings' quite close to one another, and I think that's what did the K.O. punch on my brain.

I was just pointing it out because I thought it was funny how it through me for a loop, not to be an arse. But no, that was improper noun/pronoun usage. You can't start with a singular and then reference it later as a plural.

Were I writing an essay, I wouldn't set up a sentence like that unless it was totally unavoidable. I do take fault for saying that you "can't". I should have said, "shouldn't." It just disrupts the flow and makes it more confusing to read. As I said earlier, the 'somethings' are what topped it off and made me re-read it though.

No this thread was made as a joke for entertainment value and harmless fun. People like you however come in and start to get all serious and butt hurt over it and ruin the fun for everybody else.

I agree. This is now the English and Grammarnazi club thread.

It is not perfect grammar I'll admit, but it's more acceptable to use a singular themselves in a gender neutral environment such as the internet which there is anonymity. Rather than using the more grammatically appropriate but ironically inaccurate synonym.

A fun fact, gender related vocabulary used to be a hot issue with feminists.

I like how you linked that back into the previous feminism topic. I wonder how many feminists know Spanish...I don't care much for the language, but they got one thing right: Making kitchen (cocina) a feminine noun xD

To tie into Planetside and keep this on topic, I wonder if there will be kitches in the Planetside 2 bases. That'd be a good place for the cloaker illustrated at the beginning of this thread to hide in.

[NoDachi]

They really do need to add the Kitchen Emote for the female characters.

[lawnmower]

Sex Object

Noun:
A person regarded by another only in terms of their sexual attractiveness or availability.

Did this not just happen, or do I need to reread the thread?
you need to reread the thread


There's a distinct difference between finding a character in a videogame attractive and making a whole thread about it in a forum where everyone can look like horny kids together. Noone will care about the former, the latter is just tactless and serves no purpose (besides making the community look ridiculous).

how is it tactless and rediculous and why does any of this matter

Because I, and I'm sure others, neither need nor want to hear if someone thinks a picture is spank bank material. There's no subject to discuss besides 3 pages of people pretty much saying "Yep, I'd bang her". This just isn't the place for it.

Case in point, the thread derailed because there is no subject.

Besides that, it makes ya'll look skeezy. Like I said before, humans are hard wired to see sexuality in things we find attractive. That doesn't mean we have to use up a thread slot in a discussion board so someone can tell everyone they'd hit it. Keep it to yourselves, eh?

Quite frankly, I'm slightly surprised Hamma didn't close it. Although, I'll say the discussion really has changed into something more tangible and useful.

I wouldn't even have a problem so much with it if it had been newly released; give people a chance to go "ohhh! ahhh!", but when was this released? Months ago? It's something the majority of people have seen before. Why make a whole new thread for it and why start it off by drawing specific attention to her ass?

It's a pointless thread and while I understand this is the internet and real world courtesy doesn't apply I guess I hoped I'd see some standards from the PS2 community. SOME people made snide comments and went on to make legit statements. Others just followed the suit of the thread and were obnoxious and an overall waste of time.

It would be awesome if there was a way to remove helmets, not like we live long with them on or off. Having a decent character creator would be awesome and unexpected, but I suppose it would take away from the simulacrum of PS1, nameless soldiers dying on battlefields.

But I really do like that concept art for the stealth suit. The more details put into the armor, the much more realistic and deep the world is.

The other thread is just a nod to this one. The fact that it isn't lighting up like a christmas tree like this one did just goes to prove my point.

I know you and many others probably think it doesn't mean much and it's just joking around. What about the people who are new to the community and pop in a perfectly legitimate looking thread to see this? What about any female gamers who happen upon it? They'd probably tolerate it, but it's hardly a tactful or welcoming environment.

I also find the term "white knight" interesting. Implying there's something uncommon about having some common decency and knowing when not to spew bullshit all over the intarwebz.

But no, keep telling me how I'M the one who is being entirely unreasonable...

I wonder how many people probably didn't bother or perhaps made a legitimate comment in passing and just left.
or the people who thought it wasf ine but didnt post.
we have no information about this

There's no way you can honestly say some of these aren't rapidly approaching the offensive and WAY-too-much-info (even for a joke) line, if not altogether past it.
why would i not be able to?

The other thread is just a nod to this one. The fact that it isn't lighting up like a christmas tree like this one did just goes to prove my point.
no

I will actually answer this one seriously. I hope people would see it and find it funny like most of us have and see we are a community that likes to mess around. And if they did find it offensive and left then good because they would not have been fun to play with in my opinion. I think its a win win for the community here. I personally find your expression of "decency" to be rather prude in my opinion and to be honest not very fun.

The game is meant to be fun and this thread is an extension of that by some posters making some dirty jokes about a bit of concept art while they troll the forums waiting for news about beta or other things. I see nothing wrong with this. If you really are offended and feel this is indecent then again I am sorry but you had every opportunity to ignore it when you found out what it was about(which was the OP itself). You choose to to become involved in it and made indirect insults against us calling us sad and creepy etc. I do not find that any more "decent" than a bunch of guys making some immature comments about a picture.

You have no place here now, the humor has largely worn off now for the thread and most wont bother with it outside of trolling. So go find you "legitimate discussion" else where now.

[Synapse]

I'm happy to chime in here.

I'd like an inclusive community where we shun people who make women unwelcome, but without mods taking a side, neither side is going to make the other stop posting by sheer force of angry words. The only thing we can do is vote with our posts.

I'm posting to say I support not acting like sex starved 13 year olds, even as a joke. Just so that nobody thinks the foreveralones in the first few pages represet everybody who plays PS2. So far, I think this thread has done a very poor job of making women feel appreciated in the PS2 world. If Seagull thinks he's doing us all a favor by pushing away all the girls who don't care to play or post in a cloud of sexual comments, then the best I can do is strongly disagree.

Honestly its people like you, the feminist(and other bullshit power groups), and everyone who can't stand freedom and which think everything should be censored that should be shuned. Hell I don't even care about the said concept in a "naughty way", not my style really, yet I defend their right to enjoy it. Just like I'd defend a females right to faun over stuff I believe to be sexist like Twilight.

If someone is so prude or hard assed that they get offended by such things then they are not needed and should be removed from not only the community but society as well.

[Canaris]

I don't get why they didn't just have their serious discussion and leave us to our work

btw new favourite thread! :D

You're saying that from a position of privilege... you don't have to fight against a stronger opponent to guarantee that you won't be thought of as something less than a person. Also, Twilight is an excellent example of woman-on-women sexism... not morally defensible at all.

[Synapse]

Hmmm. So you want me "removed from society" for my views, and yet I'm supposed to be the one who "can't stand freedom".

Interesting.

Muscled topless guys that sparkle. Its sexism of female on male. Whole thing is purely female sex and romance fantasys.

Those who wish to censor are those who should be censored.

[Kran De Loy]

Those that get their panties in a twist over other people's opinions are those that need tampons.

Sexisms aside though, taking offense at something is the fault of the individual reading it on the internet. One of those 'reap the consequences of your own actions' type things. Personally I would rather never have to bother with anyone that can't act like an adult and shrug off and ignore or avoid things they find emotionally displeasing.

[Tamas]

ah yeah!

THIS IS THE INTERNET. THIS IS SRS BSNS

Seriously, lighten up. 90% of the people on here were just having fun and messing around, its not like they were serious about anything >.>

I mean I'm all for talking about oversexualization in video games, cause it is a real issue that needs to be addressed... but when you start critiquing communities for their comments when they're just being silly and having fun, somethings wrong. We're guys. We joke about sex irl and online. That's just how it is. If its offensive irl its a problem, but... this isn't even a real woman! Its concept art! She does not care if we make rude comments about her, because she's not a her. She's a drawing. So stop standing up for "her" like "she" cares.

And I like how you say that shit is somehow "crossing a line" or something. Clearly you haven't been on the internet very long. They made those comments to be funny. Its funny, because they're pretending to be the stereotype that all people online are fat old virgins who masturbate to everything they see. WE'RE MAKING FUN OF OURSELVES. WE ARE NOT ACTUALLY FAPPING TO CONCEPT ART. Granted Furret's comment wasn't really that funny, BUT AT LEAST HE TRIED OK?!

IF WE WANT TO FAP, WE CAN GOOGLE "TITS" AND GET TITS DAMNIT.

(btw, I know you just found out what memes are. We get it, they're awesome. But there's a term for newbies like you [I imagine I can't use it on this site]. Don't be that person who posts the same meme over and over again and think's he's funny and clever. Because you're not. )

So are people upset about the comments people are making about the VS nice body? Or are they upset that it just has a nice figure in general?
Maybe the game will allow for character customization of weight. So people can stretch and skew their avatar to be as thin or fat as they themselves are. But that would be preposterous! There are no such thing as fit and fat ass people in real life. Wouldn't want to hurt anyone's feelings. That would be awful.

People got upset because I made a comment about sexualising in video games, and how I didn't want planetside to fall into that trap. Nothing more.

I don't think that you have anything to worry about as far is the game itself goes. This is an old concept drawing.
But if there is a bio dome that looks like a boob or a tower that looks like a penis, it will be pointed out and admired for something unintended by people like myself an many others. Lol

Nice thread !

Why I love the Vanu faction ?

Those strong, buff, tough, muscular male bodies in tight outfits and their powerful guns ! And teal/purple is my favorite color combination.

Check his HUGE pipe ! WOW ! :eek:

The only regrets I have is TR cloakers not being on our faction side.
:drools::whip:

EDIT: and if you want the unquestionable proof that T-Ray aced his job: Future Crew still plays VS in PS2.

Other than the fact that I just wasted twenty minutes reading it as a time-killer, this thread is shit.

Look at some of you neckbeards (and that includes males and females), arguing about some pixelated body on a screen. Who gives a fuck if someone finds it hot? And who gives a fuck it someone doesn't find it hot?

Shut the fuck up and play the game. Your goddamned socio-political bullshit is out of place here. It's a fucking video game. You want stick figures? Open up MS Paint. Christ almighty people find the stupidest shit to bitch about.

Indeed. I'm just mad that TR male cloakers have nicer asses than VS male cloakers. What are we, chopped liver? Everyone knows the VS are supposed to be the sexy faction, and we're supposed to be the gayest faction as well. How can we not have the sexiest man asses? This is like if the TR had the slowest firing guns, or if the NC weren't the most terrible faction.

I was more appalled at how everyone jumped on the pubescent teen bandwagon and started acting like horny kids.

If you techno-hybrid assholes didn't pull a "Grandma's Boy" and get robot legs, robot hips and robot everything-else, you might have a shot at looking as sexy as me.

Although I readily admit to having a robot cock. Ladies dig my cruise-control.

Lack of any substance or preference. check
Random insults. Check
Excessive cursing. Check
Little to no involvement in the thread until this point. Check
Belittling someone's stance without bringing up any reason why. Check
Acting like WE are wasting HIS time (as if he's not doing that himself). Check

Yep, perfect flame. Way to go, champ.

I agree. It was just stupid toilet humor, you guys really livened it up :) Despite my stupid "Stealth sex" comment (which was directed at the clingy/sexy outfit that all games invariably contain) I ACTUALLY agree with you two, sort of :) Just not enough to argue about it, atm. I've been busy arguing other pointless shit in other stupid threads :P

I will give you both props for not being as "butthurt" as your accusers claim. You guys both have a sense of humor, I'm pretty sure :)
