The really light cyan on dark purple looks goofy on our armor.

I gotta say, upon closer inspection, that VS Engineer backpack looks fantastic.

The Helmet design is so much better then the half open light assault one!

back and legs look cool.

The west and the shoulder pads need more work i think. Especially the shoulders. they look a little off.

I'm VS all the way. Some of you traitors are only fake VS and I dont give a flying fuck what colour my armour is, anybody who does is moaning like a little girl. Get a grip, its our technology that will rule.

True VS do not moan like little girls, we leave that for the NC and TR when they feel the pain!

I mean this:



But maybe it was planned to look like that all the way...

This is how the VS engineer should look!

Regarding the original images:

Good bits:

+ Rear of helmet / general look from behind

Bad bits:

- Front of helmet sticks out like a sore thumb - possibly adjust the mouth area?
- Too much silver...replace some areas with purple
- Needs a backpack

[Shogun]

take off the helmet and see what the vs really are...



these aliens even had purple blood... coincident?

@stordito: that´s what i thought of first, but it only works on a frontal view. from the side it will not look like the gunner ducks ;-)

Oh ok this went totally over my head I guess

[FaygoCatz]

That mask looks wicked tits.

Looks like the Vanu engie's gonna get scolded by his mom later for getting on the sunderer to alien school without his backpack. Maybe if she's nice she'll drop it off on her way to work.

Seriously though, I love the mask, thigh armor, and THE CLAW, but the loss of the chestplate the light assault and medic have to make room for the giant metal straps seems weird. Especialy considering the pack is so small and it looks like it's attached directly to the back of the suit anyway.

just noticed that the 1 VS female concept image we've seen is also an engi. Figured I'd repost it here for the hell of it.

See now the teal in that concept is great! Why is it so light on the renders?

What exactly makes you think you can't change the shade or hue of the teal?

No specifics have been given on the customization, and it should be the default anyway so the VS isn't completely hideous.
