Thought that was the VS :P ( "lasher needs buff!" )

Anyways... I think a lot of these pics look a little bit underwhelming because they are likely the Rank 1 versions of the armors.

Also, if you think about it, if they made everyone look super cool then no one would buy their skins. If they're gonna depend heavily, if not entirely, on micro-transactions for making money, they can't set the free bar too high, so there needs to be incentive to spend money for skins.

Vanu are my favorite looking so far by leaps and bounds. TR look fine, and NC - that reaver, ughh, I dont like it lol. Makes me think of an apache heli that forgot to put its pants on when it woke up.

vanu looked bad and will always look bad.
purple makes everything look stupid, no matter how cool it would look with other colors.

Nah TR are looking pretty bad ass imo, I think the NC are looking better than ever though, and i've never really been fussed with the VS, although they do look really good. Wait untill you see the TR MAX unit. I reckon that is going to be the best looking MAX for sure.

But NC all the way!

Re: Whats the Worst looking Empire so far?SOE is handicapping TR IMO


I like the TR looks!
(never played PS1)

I chose the TR cause of their "lore" and the types of weapons (iirc TR get the rapid fire projectile weapons as opposed to slower firing but higher dmg or energy weapons, right?)
I also like the Black and Red theme more so than purple and the NC's Yellow/Blue.

We need to keep the world in order! Fight off the Rebels and Alien Worshipers!

Yeah, I'm aligned with both VS and TR philosophies, but I'm sorry to say it, Red and Black won it for me. If TR was purple and teal, whatever their philosophy, I would be nowhere near them.

TR look good it's just that they have the most screenshots and we've seen their look from day 1. You just got used to them.

I find this very ironic coming from an NC, which imo look the worst now.

TR looks okay, and they have the best color scheme.
VS looks AWESOME and we have the second best color scheme

NC though... They got nothing except their infiltrator (which technically kinda borrows the TR color scheme)

Which proves the point that everything is subjective and this thread is mostly pointless!

(Though I love how the op complains about the TR looks and they got the least votes so far))

Re: Whats the Worst looking Empire so far?SOE is handicapping TR IMO


I like them all really, each empire has its own features and signature stuff.

The TR have their googles, the NC have the heavier looking armor, and the VS have their shiny purple/teal spandex.

Everything else is a matter of opinion.

I can understand that the googles look dumb to some people, but I don't agree.
I agree we need to see more black'n'red TRs though.

I personally think the NC are the ones needing more work, as they look too contemporary right now, except if customisation options can make them look more futuristic.
But I'll play them nonetheless. NC forever!

WHERE IS THE SCYTHE!! I want to see a video of it tearing the sky up that video of it was good yes but seeing it from the back end will have to do for now!

All the empires look more badass than I could have even imagined... Judging by the poll, most people tend to agree.

Shouldnt even have the "All look.." options, cos it skews the results. yes, they all look good, but one of them is still the worst for most people, even if the worst is also really cool.

For me it's the NC. It looks good, but not as good as TR and VS.
