Huh, that glow will certainly help me finding vanu heads at night.

Strangely I think I like the clear lens better with the open face. The black looks a little bug eyed to me or something. Or maybe this is just nostalgia speaking. The clear does have a more classic Vanu vibe.

Hmm, was hoping for transparent visor. Do you guys just not have that tech?

I remember seeing a very old alpha pic of a mosquito and the cockpit actually had visible, transparent glass over it, and now it's missing. What's up?

The clear one on the left is definitely the best design... does the engine not support transparent visors?

Kinda sure they are all the same. Looks like: Concept, Model renders not in engine, glowmap.

It would be really bad assed if you got the shaded visor during the day and the clear visor at night. Like it was an actual functioning piece of equipment.

It's going to be shaded at night so you have as much trouble seeing us Smurfs as we do you in your grape onesies...

I believe the left is the concept art while the right is its in game translation, no idea on clear visor. They may just avoiding it since there is not a variety of faces atm. With the biolab being clear I do't see why the couldn't do it.
