Friday with Means - May 21st, 2010 - Instability in Greece caused by Macrosun!

[Wrangeline]

AAAhahahaha!

Those heads are the dumbest things I have ever seen
I mean, the nanomage head looks ok I guess but those other two looks like horrible caricatures.

The eyes, lips and nose of the opifex female are too big and I can't look at the atrox without laughing. What the hell happened? >.<

[Hvyshadows]

The Atrox head looks too Asian.

[mozaix]

Yeah, i also think the atrox head looks sort of too asian. It sort of reminds me of some big crazy asian sumo wrestler cooking noodles! You know, those crazy guys you find in Hong Kong movies. :P

Btw, anybody else who thinks the opifex is suffering from squint-eyes?

[Hunni]

Heads look kewl! Hehe. NM heads will still beg for a helmet in social.

[Dagget]

Heads looking good. NM is spot on, Opi very close - needs a bit more 'caffeinated/fun' look. Trox ok, but I'm not sure that was the best Atrox example to showcase the changes with.

Don't forget to redo the large scale models in Character Creation and the Jobe Professionals buildings to reflect these changes (and the body changes still to be revealed)

When can we expect to see a wider range of heads? How far along is Bejing?

How is the rework of the trees and grass going?

[meatybtz]

What the hell happened? >.<

Colligen Injections happened.... >.<

[Otinsainpas]

trox has tanked too many hecklers.. screenshot looks awesome

[Mastablasta]

I'm quitting AO because of the heads. I won't comment on whether or not I like them or not. But they make me quit.

can I have your stuff ?

The Atrox head looks too Asian.

Nothing wrong with having some other racial features. But what I expect you wanted to state is that it doesn't look enough like another breed.

Actually it looks like Dr.Jeckly from Van Hellsing movie. There are several anatomical issues with it:
- chin isn't symetrical
- eyes are to far away
- nose isn't protruding enough (it would have cronical runny nose)
- ears are set too low at that size (kinda small at that)
- lack of eyelashes and brows
Frankly, I think OT would discard this to roam freely on RK as the rest of Bio-breeds rejects, not developing it futher for mining.

I think the artists in Bejing should invest some IP into Bio-engineering. You know, start with skull, add muscle mass, maybe add some fat and then strech skin over it.
Edit: and also do something about colors, atm the skin looks like a wax. People faces don't have uniformal color, unless they are dead.

When I saw that image, my first impression was someone had been watching too much Batman.

I don't know what happened since the last images were provided, but these changes to the atrox & opifex heads cause them to no longer resemble atrox or opifex breeds. They look like something out of a comic book.

atrox = The Joker
opifex = Harley Quinn
nanomage = Alfred

[Harios]

wtb more info regarding the open pvp area.. what will it be like? what is there to gain?

[DaviasI]

Nanomage head looks like he's about to shoot blue laser out his eyeballs. *pew* *pew*

[Klodovik]

Means, are devs working on fixing the pets they broke recently?

[SoapTarder]

nice screenshot, glad to see heads with lots of detail, character and some emotion. (vulcans online FTL) will there be any animations on the faces though? would be nice, although, some games over do it and it ruins the atmosphere.

So basically you're saying you want the trox to look more human? No thanks, I actually like this one, finally looks like a big dumb ox like it's supposed to.

Not human, and there isn't really any info suggesting atroxes are dumb. However, they are engineered with specific tasks in mind. Their features should reflect that, anatomy suited for work in dusty, hot enviroment, toped with robust built to withstand inherit dangers of mining.

Their low Intelligence breed cap suggests they are dumb.

[cube]

The opifex lips are indeed a bit odd, maybe too much saline?

The other two heads are perfect honestly, looking forward to more!
