Resorting to the age thing. Go relax, lay down for a bit. I guess you’d like me to believe that you simply didn’t realize what you were typing as your fingers hit the keys…[/QUOTE]

like I said before, I called you on 2 things, showed you links from the devs to prove my point, you point to some review in an online magazine as gospel, I call you on that and now you want to argue about a post I deleted, GET BACK ON THE POINT. Next time you want to spout crap, back it up with REAL links

and remember, some people have been here a while, they may actually know things you don’t. You still haven’t acknowledged your previous 2 greivous errors, Until you do, you’re just another whiney kid

KTHXBYE

good idea, back on topic

like I said before, I want “Geezer” I saw him once and now can’t find him anywhere

if the tapirs are involved, I shall get my stick

:smiley:

(murka) #124

I want the white&pink archetype just because pink is the new white and white was the new black.

The real archetypes look all alike to me…

(Herandar) #125

Pretty sure it was on the customization video, or the PS3 gameplay video.

^^^ Wow if you want him cause he bears a resemblance to you Nail… DAMN you ugly boy!! :smiley:

(Nail) #128

yes, the resemblance is startling, except I don’t smile that much

thanks, Singh

(MF Maou) #129

The Bomb & The Fortress.

(MadMike) #130

The Bug wins out here. By far, the coolest looking default archetype yet released.

(II Captain K II) #131

gotta love the borderline racist “the G”

But honestly “the good cop” and “the warrior” are the two coolest.

(Nail) #132

I still want an Armani and Guccis for the Geezer group, maybe a nice dark grey fedora as well. That Tully, she knows how to draw Canadians that’s for sure

:smiley:

[/QUOTE]

What? Nothing remotely racist about that.

(crazyfoolish) #135

I really love how the faces shown in the character custumisation video are all so memorable and unique.

Depends on the way that you look at it.

(DarkangelUK) #136

I’d say it’s more of a stereotype than a racism thing.

(Herandar) #137

Since the G can be white, it really isn’t racist.

(BioSnark) #138

the archetype isn’t white.

It appears there are 10 archetypes per faction, as Olivier Leonardi (Art Director) explained in an interview on nxtgamer.com:

“what we did was, we defined 10 archetypes that all show a different personality in the story, so we have ten strong characters per faction, and then you can mix-and-match everything, so you can make a million different characters from these ten good-looking guys.”

    • Archetypes are appearance presets that can act as a base from which to customize your character. Each Faction has a distinct group of Archetype styles to build upon or combine with your other unlocked gear. You can see galleries and archetypes here:

I never said anything about Archetypes being just faces. Archetypes are pre-set looks - like matching sets - that players can use as sort of a starting point to make customize their characters. Olivier even mentions this in the quote I quoted him on.

“what we did was, we defined 10 archetypes that all show a different personality in the story, so we have ten strong characters per faction, and then you can mix-and-match everything, so you can make a million different characters from these ten good-looking guys.”

You can mix and match EVERYTHING.
Everything means more than just faces.

[QUOTE=trigg3r;263778]from the archetypes released so far my fav is the look.
but im still wondering if this one will be one of the 3 missing security archetypes, since that mask and hood looks awesome

[/QUOTE]

That Archetype is “The Eel.”

If anyone is looking for a link where it states you change bodytypes, here you go - http://www.colonyofgamers.com/cogforums/showthread.php?p=579782

Q&A with Richard Ham

“You can change class at any time during a mission using a Command Post, and when you’re between missions, you can change your body type via the appearance customization options.”

Granted, things could have changed since then, but since I haven’t found any updated info on the subject, this is what I am going with for now.

It’s really not…

Everything I put in the Compendium came from a source - How reliable a source is up for question, but mainly I try to stick with what the devs say. And in the instances where I do make an assumption or an educated guess based on available information, I let it be known that I am in fact making an assumption, to eliminate confusion.

I base my info on what I can find and/or what is available. If something changers, but no info is released beforehand for me to update it with, you can’t really blame me for that.

Besides, there is a disclaimer at the beginning of the Compendium, so even if it was chock full of assumptions, this is already covered:

NOTE: Do not take everything here as 100% final. I am simply taking various sources of info and compiling them all into one. I am providing this as a way to share my findings with others as a reference, to get an idea of what the game is about and how it plays out. I have tried my best to check sources and remain as accurate as possible and although they have reached beta, the game is still in development and things can still change.
