#36300265606 06/20/2007 16:34:31 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Whoa! Ghost has a goatee again! Awesome!

What is all this black and white? Rarebit = Freddy Mercury?

Niobe's top is hot stuff.

#36300265610 06/20/2007 16:40:15 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
I can dig it. SMILEY

It's good to see these characters change.
#36300265611 06/20/2007 16:41:40 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
The copyright police! They're coming! Quick, everyone, to the sewers!



What is the DEAL with all these changes? I bet the Effectuator isn't going to be changed at all. =p
#36300265613 06/20/2007 16:42:59 Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Ghost is pwn, end of.

Niobe on the other hand looks weird without her trademark redy orangey theme, as well as the loss of her glasses.

Its interesting cos this pic seems like a real shift of focus from Niobe being the big gun how badass and ghost being the more withdrawn and emotional to the opposite.

But yes, i'd liek to reinterate a point from previous threads, my hope and understanding is these chapter 8 looks are mostly alternatives as opposed to permanent changes so as long as they're all used contextually i see no problem.

Except for ghost's new facial hair, that should probably pertain to both outfits so he isnt speed shaving and growing it all the time, lol.

well when everything is all in your head who's to say you can't do just that?

Anyway Ghost looks pwn. Niobe...meh I'll get used to it.

Now lets see those side characters!

#36300265619 06/20/2007 16:53:17 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007

Cool stuff! Ghost in white, a great look. Niobe's is a cool look too.

#36300265620 06/20/2007 16:53:59 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
i guess its not a funeral...
#36300265621 06/20/2007 16:55:37 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007

Meh at Niobe...the change is not so good.

I like Ghosts change though, good to see he's got his cool white suit and goatee back SMILEY

#36300265626 06/20/2007 16:58:30 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007

Ghost looks great... shame he's still bald though.

Niobe looks wierd without a coat and glasses, though. A black version of her current thing would have been better.

#36300265627 06/20/2007 17:00:57 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Very cool.
#36300265629 06/20/2007 17:02:37 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
wow Ghost looks awsome now if he had hair SMILEY jk but yeah cant wait for 8 if its not a funerall maybe its preperation for war or maybe a full out assault on the merv?
#36300265632 06/20/2007 17:06:32 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
You know what'd be better?

If Niobe's head wasn't flat.
#36300265633 06/20/2007 17:07:46 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007

So, Rarebit, can I please have a copy of Ghost's new coat?

Please?

#36300265639 06/20/2007 17:14:44 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007

Lookin' good SMILEY

I think I did like Niobe's old look a bit more than the new one, though. It's odd to see her without a trench.

#36300265661 06/20/2007 18:15:32 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Ghost goes back to his white threads! The facial hair adds character to him, too. I wonder the purpose for Niobe removing her shades.
#36300265668 06/20/2007 18:23:12 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Yes.
#36300265685 06/20/2007 19:14:59 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Oh my....




...I want Ghost's outfit.  I like them both.

#36300265691 06/20/2007 19:36:39 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
That's hot stuff, yet again.

Ghost: Looks even more bad-*CENSORED* with the goatee/'stache combo...I dig it.

Niobe: Different, but I think it works without the shades and with the new top...the lack of shades might even hint a slight character change.

Chapter 8 is looking to be better every week!

#36300265694 06/20/2007 19:41:56 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Both faces look more like theirs in the movies...making me wonder if somehow they found a file containing rights to them haha.

I dunno, people are complaining about Niobe, but I think more changes were done than just the shades. Looks different in other ways.
#36300265695 06/20/2007 19:47:51 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Did they change the entire Niobe model?
#36300265696 06/20/2007 19:51:32 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Beautiful. This is probably the best change of them all.

Nicely done, Rarebit.

*applaud*
#36300265708 06/20/2007 20:34:47 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
I like the addition of the Goatee and stash to Ghost. It brings back a bit of his look without making him seem so different that its no longer Ghost. Some might say that all he needs now is hair, but I think we're all accustomed to the way Ghost has looked within the Matrix Online and that big of a change would just ruin the look of the character. And honestly, chances are that they gave it a try when redoing the models and it looked odd.

Now as for Niobe, I think the most significant thing is the lack of shades. The fact that you can see her eyes softens her character a little. Niobe has always seemed a little cold and vengeful, and maybe we'll finally see another side of her.

Who knows, maybe chapter 8 includes the new "Therapist"tree we've all been waiting for.
#36300265767 06/20/2007 23:23:55 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007

I like it alot. Much needed change for ghost. He has some of his old qualities back. And I think Niobe looks good. 8.1 is going to be cool. I mean all the new shiny textures and the black and white outfits. White means death in some cultures. I'm still betting on a funeral. The most probable would be the Oracle.

Dare I say... RIP Oracle.

#36300265771 06/20/2007 23:27:47 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Niobe looks so innocent.


#36300265778 06/20/2007 23:42:58 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007

ghost keeps using the razor on the wrong part of his head

#36300265800 06/21/2007 00:15:52 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Now don't tell me Kid goes and gets a white machello prophet duster :-O

Nah, there was the Image retrieval of them both (Kid, Shimada) already, so I guess not SMILEY

P.S.: Ghost is teh pwn. I want the twins in black!
#36300265878 06/21/2007 03:46:14 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Hmm... Looks alright i guess like the detailing on niobe's top
#36300265895 06/21/2007 04:06:40 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007

Nice, very nice indeed and i really like Ghost new look...but did Niobe get a face-lift? I just think her face have changed a little?

#36300265928 06/21/2007 04:54:08 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Nice changes!How about Seraph......

If he did, I would cry. Considering I've been asking for one for more than a year now. Or a white half jayne. And if that's like Ghost's old coat except white, my chances of the latter are now non-existant considering we never get clothes like the story characters.

SMILEY

#36300265998 06/21/2007 07:04:04 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007

If they're going to "update" Seraph's look at all, I hope it's something as subtle as the Kid's. If it ain't broke...

I'm looking forward to Ookami's new look..if she gets one...man hawtness
#36300266028 06/21/2007 08:41:00 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
VERY nice. Personally, I was getting tired of seeing Niobe in the old outfit, so I'm welcoming the change.
#36300266068 06/21/2007 09:50:12 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007

Ghost looks great!

Lyr

#36300266268 06/21/2007 15:58:24 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007

since when has niobe had a huge *CENSORED*.....

..forehead.

I like ghosts top, i'd like to see it in alot more detail (like more than upper torso).

Look forward to seeing the rest of the characters. SMILEY

#36300266294 06/21/2007 17:00:51 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007

I think Niobe looks great, her face is really expressive without the shades.  That's just a run-of-the-mill black Blackbee tankini, right?  I'm pretty sure I looted one of those off of an otherwise burly-looking male adversary . . . I didn't ask.  I never do.  :X

I'm all about achieving the classic Matrix look, so I'm happy to see some rethinking of the main characters, especially when there's so much customization available for all of us average players.  I think it'd be sweet to have a contest or something where the community could contribute designs for other minor characters (or perhaps the liaisons?), so that we can get in on all the make-over fun too . . .

#36300266336 06/21/2007 18:25:26 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Nay nay for Niobe. I really liked her old outfit.
#36300267358 06/22/2007 23:17:08 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Looking sharp Ghost. I always thought the white suit should've got more air time in Reloaded .  The facial hair isn't too bad either, makes him look a little sinister.  I like the change in Niobe too. Removing anyone's shades always makes them appear more human. It gives folks a chance to remember that there's another side to Niobe like how she was in during Morphs speech in the temple.  I cant wait to see if the outfit revamps reflect how much each org will change in the upcoming chapter. Like they say "Somethings never change and somethings do". 
#36300267411 06/23/2007 03:17:55 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007

 Ghost Looks great, I think he looks cooler in that outfit than in his old one and Niobe certainly got a cool and interesting new outfit and changes, you definately see an expression in her eyes, overall very cool SMILEY

#36300268265 06/24/2007 20:40:21 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007

New one!

Hmm... Archie's gone pure grey. I like it. But he looks... sad?

#36300270207 06/27/2007 20:26:58 Re:Image Retrieval - June 20, 2007
Okay, genius, how did you do that before Raijiin could set it up? O_o

Edit: Okay, fine, I don't navigate the main website as much as I should. Leave me alone!
