Hmm... not to sure what I think of these, but hey, it's new contact for Uriah!

they look sweet! <3 loving the new noobie stuffs now we need gloves SMILEY oh and a hat SMILEY
#36300299548 08/08/2007 16:37:16 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007

Well they look cool and would add great to the Silver Glovers effect and the red bandana. Now we just need a red code like Brewko's and we have it all.

Thos look pretty cool, and they are building upon the tutorial run for new players, brilliant  ^_^

Yes didnt havocide post about his discussion with the devs and how they where planning to extend it right to the dungeon?
#36300299556 08/08/2007 16:42:06 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
Very very nice!  I'm curious about the price.. that aspect certainly seems alarming to me since I'm almost always nearly broke  hehehe  But if he's in Uriah, it can't be that bad.. can it?
#36300299565 08/08/2007 16:52:28 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
I wonder what the female shades look like... o.O
#36300299570 08/08/2007 16:57:11 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
Definitely another welcome addition. Way to go brah'.
#36300299576 08/08/2007 17:11:14 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
Hmm... the price could be something other than $info, inner strength regen at the cost of some Health or tactics?

I think they look pretty cool, I'm sure we'll see many people wearing them in their normal non-pvp attire...
#36300299581 08/08/2007 17:15:27 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007

1. They look awesome.

2. Yay for more Uriah content!

3. Look at the name. "Headless". Perhaps the "price" is that if you wear them for a certain amount of time, your rsi's head will go transpearant a la Ethereals?

It's a good point, but unless you want that for your RSI, it'd make them less desirable if that happened, but it could open up a whole new angle on peoples backgrounds and/or RP (if they do RP that is..) I for one hope that you are wrong.. but the name certainly puts a strong lean to your supposition....

Ooooo very nice!  These will go nice with those who wear the demon army trench.

#36300299637 08/08/2007 18:48:11 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
Hmm...I wonder why they're called headless.

EDIT: heh the link from the main site works now
#36300299642 08/08/2007 18:57:50 Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
To lose one's head: Go crazy. I'm guessing enraged state.
#36300299646 08/08/2007 19:02:25 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
I doubt it'll be the enraged state, since Rarebit knows about the little state clearing trick. I'm thinking that the effect is probably going to be cooler than the actual item.

#36300299654 08/08/2007 19:15:43 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
I forgot to put that in my first post, but I was curious about the headless bit as well...  that would certainly be a high cost for wearing the new shades though hehe
#36300299671 08/08/2007 20:00:16 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
This better not be a new player only.
#36300299672 08/08/2007 20:02:09 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
looks similar to my idea for changing the awakened glasses, looks good thoe SMILEY

Well, the industrial jacket could be obtained without the newbie ID cards/notes, I imagine this will be the same. If not, it'll probably be tradable like the other industrial gear, so you can use an alt.
#36300299761 08/08/2007 22:02:56 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
I want a pair of these :)  My guess would be that they function a bit like Fly in Amber but that doesn't really match the Headless description.. Either way, I'm excited to see the new stuff coming in!
#36300299829 08/08/2007 23:26:30 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
I just pray that my eyebrows won't clip through these.
#36300299848 08/09/2007 01:10:16 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
Won't be changing my shades any time soon, but they look neat.

Farewell Inventory space, I knew the well!!

These look cool, but with cool stuffs clogging my inventory I'll have to seriously weigh up this one - especially if it comes at "a price!!"

But nevertheless I'll probably still get them, how do we think they'll appear, more training? Another Mercury mission?
#36300299890 08/09/2007 04:05:01 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007

Apparently they are planning on introducing exile hideouts by taking new players to Mars Industrial in Uriah so maybe the glasses will be in there on the boss.

I wonder if it is that, if it is I may have a look on Vector for the carnage for the first drop SMILEY

Saying that, on Syntax and Recursion, someone will flag and that will turn into a last man standing gets the shades too SMILEY

Sweet jesus. That was worth a 9 hour flight to see.

Roll on update 54. Fanfaire shirt combo...hmm not convinced...but regardless....lets roll.
#36300299936 08/09/2007 04:56:19 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
Glasses with Red Code? *CENSORED*!!!!!!!!

I will sure get these.
#36300299982 08/09/2007 06:02:36 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
Glasses with code lines. SMILEY
I'm all for new textures, new items, generally any stuff is ok in my books. But why put code lines on glasses?

++ New item
-- Bad texture

The Awakening glasses code looks good, but this code on rifter shades looks a little meh

hehehe i kept my newb ID card for some odd reason and know it looks like it might have been a good idea looking forward to shades SMILEY
#36300300012 08/09/2007 07:15:54 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
Cool glasses but why in the name of god of matrix,its called  "headless"?????  SMILEY

It had better not require a noob card or be part of the noob collector series requiring you to reroll.  Hell if I'm gonna sacrifice a Mobius Code for a pair of sunglasses.

Wont the glasses be tradeable along with the Industrial gear?

Even if its not, I dont think they will be locked to new players only, look at the Awakened Jacket.

Nope, I find them ugly too. SMILEY I still have to shoot myself for getting the glasses and not the jacket...
Code lines on glasses is a big 'no' imho when all MXO's clothes have a realistic look. We should get buffs that alter the glasses and leave them looking normal when we're buffless. Even making those rifters completely black would've looked far better if you ask me. Same goes for the awakening shades.

No because if you think about it all you'd have to do is get someone to create a new character and just keep rerolling and farming them.  The Matrix would be awash in Headless Glasses.
#36300300125 08/09/2007 09:50:03 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007

Something is weird about these glasses.  The code in them looks all bent and weird when the Awakening glasses look more sraight.  And the glasses themselves look like the code has been pasted over them when the other glasses look like the code is behind it.  Plus the code moved when your head or camera moves so hopefully these will do that, too. 

Idk, it looks like a weird photoshop job to me.  There's no shine on them.  Hopefully they will look better in game.  And I'll still be getting them anyway.  SMILEY

#36300300838 08/10/2007 09:45:45 Re:Image Retrieval - August 8, 2007
Does it means that the really old characters (those that never had an ID card) will be unable to get this item?
