even classic Optimus Prime (sidevents).

Come now, surely it can't remind you of Judge Dredd... There's no chin

The NC helmet is freakin' badass!

I can see some great insipiration there, Halo 4's Rogue helmet crossed with the Cerberus helmet from Mass Effect 3, but with softer lines. I would've kept hard edges to keep it in line with NC design personally, but I still love it.

Will be buying this one!

The NC one doesn't quite look like an NC helmet to me...

To me the NC helm is the only good one. The TR one looks just like every other TR helm and the Vanu helm looks like something you would wear while riding your schwinn bicycle.

VS helm looks aweful I haaaattteee helmets with open mouth areas so much. Will not buy

The NC helmet looks Amazing. I will be buying that. Now we just need some armor to match with it.

Holy.. That NC helmet, I'm going to feel like a freaking Spartan on my heavy with that thing. 10/10

I don't think VS helmet looks bad, but I would like a closed face variant waaaaaay better. If you closed the mask off it would look pretty badass imo. Hopefully this isn't the heavy version.

I do agree the NC looks the best.

The helmet is far to slim around the cheeks, how on earth would you put the thing on? I am really getting sick of the VS and TR getting all the good looking stuff that works well and we get stuck with the crap. If the only use for the Lore in this game is to give reasons why the NC gear is not as good as the VS then just get rid of it.
I will say the lack of a huge yellow stripe all over the front of the helmet is a huge step forward in the design from the previous neon choices we had for camouflage avoidance, although the bright visor stills goes some way towards that. It just would not be PS without the VS and TR artists and Devs giving us the look were i am yellow stripe of death.
The other factions have their secondary colour faded out or darkened for most of their Camo but we still get huge yellow stripes. You cannot see the VS at night as their colours match the darkness so well and the TR are not far behind, so i would ask our commanders and the Devs to please make a darker shade of yellow, or change the colour to a more manageable one for combat camo, or at least not have yellow stripes all over our head so that our other camo can be effective.
