All classes getting a makeover?

ZericOfGa · 10-12-2009, 06:46 PM

So we know what the concept art is for the new dark elf barbs and female mages, but are they the ONLY ones getting a new look? Personally I would like if knights looked a little more...knightish? More bulky armor, etc. It isn't life or death but it is interesting to see no concept art for any other classes...

The models we saw were not finalised, they were just to see what NGD could do with 3k pix per char instead of the 1k per char we have now, I suspect they might just upscale all the current armour for now and then if they do makeovers at all it will be a slow task, maybe doing 1 class or even subclass per update.

the only thing i want is Quiver and "real" Bows

(low cost arrows too, ofc)

Just hoping that the new engine will allow previously difficult technology to make its way into the game. For example bow strings, arrows, quivers, and capes (already can be seen on Amun) NGD said previously that such technology was technically difficult because the engine has a hard time handling movement (capes waving in the wind, while moving, standing, the new engine can take this all in much more easily)

I'm also hoping since they will be redoing character models, that they make armor more realm specific, to create diversity, plus visual helmets for Ugthars
