New Helmet Concepts - Page 12

Selerox · 2013-03-22, 02:32 AM

I'm hoping we get these (VS, TR and NC) helmets soon. The current crop are pretty poor IMO.

I'm not a huge fan of the default VS ones, I'd love to be able to change them.

I just want to know, is that commissar cap really going to make it into the game?
Because I will get it, no matter the cost!

wow I haven't looked at new helms since I first bought the composite helms at the start for 250sc, all these new ones are between 500-750, 600sc for the new infil that's far much more than I'm willing to spend on a cosmetic, 250sc was about right. Why the massive price difference?

Guess I'll be waiting on a sale before I pick up the Infil one, no way I'm paying almost the price of a new gun for it.

Please post the image, rather than cross posting. Thanks

Am I the only one disappointed with the in game models? Matt did a great job with the concepts but it's clear they had to butcher his designs to get them in game.

For instance the NC one. At first I didn't like the insect like upper glass but it looks great in black (must have been the gold that threw me off).

I love the concept's narrow, angular glass. I love the detail in the chin and forehead, too. Even the side vents are pretty cool. If I had a real helmet like that I'd wear it every day.

I have nothing against Mr. Coker, but it's clear he had a polygon limit he had to deal with. The in game helmet loses virtually all the detail in the forehead and chin, the glass is wider and more rounded (when NC are suppose to be about sharp angles. The reason I joined NC) and even the vents seem to be at the wrong angle ( they're more horizontal whereas the concept has them pointed more down). About the only place I like the in game helmet is actually on the soldier but I guess that's the most important place.

As far as buying it. If it's for all or most of our soldiers, I hope we can pay one fee for it or at least some kind of bundle.

I also wonder if it'll match camo or not. Doesn't seem like it would be designed with that in mind.

Will these be wearable by every class?

I don't like the black looks the gold looks so much better and don't we have enough black glass ingame by now can't we get other color glass the gold looks really awesome.

I definitely like the look of the NC helm.

Canaris · 2013-03-22, 11:05 AM

from a thread on the official forums here's a badish pic of the new TR infil helm, I want to see some more in game shots but it looks like whoever designed the helm forgot to scale it to the size of the body

Shame I was looking forward to getting it but oh well.

Colour it gold instead of red and black and you've got C3-P0

heyitsrobbie · 2013-04-09, 04:46 PM

Will they accept more camo like the camo replaces the blue on the helmet???

if the tanks can have yellow on it while it has camo, why cant the new helmet have it also?

Not going to lie... If they made the Commissar Hat... with a Armored Commissar Trench for this game... I would throw cash... my credit car, my dog and car at my monitor to buy it. And buy it for every class... ((Thou it be kinda dumb on a max))

I am not willing to pay $20 bucks for a golden pistol.

But $20 bucks for a commissar hat I would buy it for all my classes!

But please SOE, don´t ready my post, make them cost just 500 SC each please!
