Targe Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 As per original com. naked greys please, no clothes. I feel as though I am fighting a Star Trek Next Generation landing party, with their red and blue uniforms! For real canon, leader greys should be taller, with more mantis-like triangular heads, worker soldier greys short and squat, exactly like original xcom. Having two models for one race is too much though, I realize. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Caine Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 They aren't greys. They are Caesans. Who may resemble in certain superficial aspects classic greys, but they aren't greys. They are Caesans. Nor are they Sectoids, and if Goldhawk doesn't fancy IP infringement lawyers breathing down on them, Goldhawk will keep away from making Caesans look too much like Sectoids.

GizmoGomez Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Besides, I like mowing down redshirts. It's kind of nostalgic, in a way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Oh yeah! Fighting redshirts with redshirts....hmm, i'll have to try a squad of rookies with pistols vs a caesan light scout.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GizmoGomez Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 I'm sure it can be done. You just have to overwhelm them with sheer numbers and quantity of bullets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commissar Pancakes Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 If not, there's always the stunstick-stormshield combination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 That's what I'm waiting on combat shields for. A full squad of 8 with combat shields, stun batons and pistols. A proper Earth welcome! *vicious beating* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the several dozen assets used for leaders, please actually have a significant portion re-drawn. I don't care that even basic animation takes ages to do. TIA."

thothkins Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 I hope the reply would be as polite Caesians in jump suits took me a couple of missions to get used to, and that was from too much familiarity with Sectoids (ooo errr missus). Once I saw them sneaking around, I was fine with them. Having early UFOlogy reports have them described in similar manners is just extra icing.

Chris Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 They need to have clothes so it's easy to differentiate between different ranks of Caesan, of which there are about eight. Also, I'm not sure why a more advanced civilisation would have less clothes than us? I'm not sure that's very logical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Caine Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Going by sci-fi MMOs, the less clothes women wear, the more high-tech their nation/race is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shima Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Well it's easy to differentiate between their ranks, yes, but I still have no clue which is which and who should I kill first - except that guys with helmets are leaders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assoonasitis Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Lowest ranks are just like Star Trek. Then for some reason the science officers get given better guns, I guess? I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shima Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 We could get explained hierarchy with a research - caesan interrogation maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thothkins Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 do the Caesians push out the red shirts first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathalor Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Wait, I don't understand. Wasn't the guy just asking for mod? I get that the base game should have clothes, but isn't changing the art aspects the point of most gaming mods? What if I want to shoot barney the dinosaur or droves of zombies, can I not change the art files? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Caine Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 That wasn't the impression that I got. When I read this in the suggestions and features request forum, not the modding forum, from the context it was placed in it looked for all the world as a request for naked Caesans made up like Sectoids in the vanilla game. Which isn't a good idea. If you want to change the art files, go ahead. I ain't stopping you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erutan Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Everytime I see this headline, I think of those ridiculous Skyrim mods. How big bottomed do you want your naked Caesians? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
