I was just looking at the OXM article pics, and saw that in some of the pics the characters were the exact same models!!!
i was wondering if this was just the pics i saw or if all of the Drones were the same aside from the obvious rank and weapon

post your thoughts

Alot of the pics used in the OXM magazine are kind of old. So it could had changed. Either way it doesnt bother me that much.

Ya they are from an early build (because it was right before E3 06, they couldnt give away their suprises) Probaly clones for the drones, but theyre names are drones so what can you expect? :) In the E3 06 gameplay vid some where wearing masks and different armor combos so i would worry much! :)

That's the way the cookie crumbles. That's how all video games are besides Oblivion.

getting back to gears,
i guess that it wont really matter if there is 1or 3 models for each class

well there's the fat locust, the skinny locust, the taller skinny locust, and the short locust with the helmet, and those are all small soldier variants. All have different traits.

If a game had a random face feature, like a number of ears that would be chosen at random, eyes, nose, face shape, body, etc etc, it would be awesome, though it may look retarded at times. :/

If the current models had random scales, like size and thickness, it'd add a little visual factor.

Ive always thought a random character creator would be really neat. Like they have a random tree maker, why cant they do it for drone models, like different dark spot locations, face, height. I know there is probaly a reason why, but if not i cant see why Gears cant be a first to do it. :)

The game seems pretty fast paced, so my guess is there will be little time to stop and see if the enemies are different from eachother, although it would be more realistic if they were.

With a decent variety of enemies, a feel that the game doesn't need different models of the same enemy. There might be a few models for the Drones (other than the specific classes: Hunter, Boomer, etc), but other than that, I doubt it.

It's like RE4. There were a few different models for the villagers, but other than that, there weren't any differences. And hey, the game turned out to be one of the best, didn't it?

Saying all Locust Drones look alike is racist! Somone needs some Seran Sensitivity training. ;)

drones have feelings too! brumaks on the other hand have hearts cold as ice, unless the right kind of berserker can calm him into a gental loving giant...............and we all live happily ever after;)
