DICE I really don't mind having ethnic soldiers, as Hispanic dude myself I say that's cool, But if you going to... do it right. You guys just put a black man face into a white dude body, That model looks just weird. Afro American's bone structure it's different, The face and head size of the current model is disproportionate in relation with the body... It looks atrocious you did no favor to black dudes.

I had a comparative study of bone structure I used in my drawing and modeling class I can't find now, So I got this one out of the internet:

Yes I had a beer and this indeed bothers me, How could they be so sloppy with this?

Because it's easy.

Black guy bodies? Like this guy?

@DonPixel: I don't really get what you are trying to say. His head is to big?

Yeah in relation with his body, because they just recycled the previous Caucasian assault model.

Easy points with the medic class.

So wait. Black dudes = Orc dudes?

You mother fucking racist. Quite literally, an entire race difference!

#10 Posted by Oldirtybearon (3094 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

I'm more curious as to why the OP felt the need to draw seven cocks of varying sizes.

#11 Posted by Liber (644 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

Forget about body structures and oversized heads, black dudes should always be support with a LMG.

LMGs are the Bass guitar of BF3?

Thankyou, I thought I was the only one who thought the black guys looked retarded in BF3. They look like a gorilla.

While we're at it I feel like the white classes are inaccurate too, clearly they are all jumping too high and I haven't seen any evidence of them dancing badly yet.

@DonPixel: It's good to know that I'm taller than a Half Orc. I never would have guessed.

I don't really have anything constructive to bring to the thread, but I'd just like to show you what my tabs look like right now.   

You guys are the best.

Well you clearly not familiar with the guidelines for body drawing and human proportion and that's fine.

#23 Posted by Jack268 (3386 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

What the fuck is going on in this thread

#24 Posted by artgarcrunkle (964 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

Yeah dude games are pretty half-ass now no biggie.

#25 Edited by david3cm (624 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

I think as you seem to have studied this sort of thing in the past it may be more prevalent to you, but the average joe may not notice how odd it may look, which is most likely why they didnt take the time to make it accurate. And most players probably dont care what the face looks like, they just want to shoot it no matter the race.

EDIT: I doubt dwarves are all sporting six packs

Its his irratating little grin that annoys me.

#28 Posted by Shady1992 (161 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

I think the black guy looks a little... off, as well. His mouth looks way too wide for some reason, and while his head is pointed forward, his eyeballs are always very... upward

Then he does that squidmouth thing, with the afformentioned wide mouth, while looking upwards although facing straight, and it's just... awkward

#29 Posted by Aronman789 (2610 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

I would have expected the Halflings to be way more hairy.

#30 Posted by Brazooka (15 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

Head/body proportion? That does not exists. Check before-mentioned Carlton. But black man with snow-white arms? Did you guys look at the arm's skin color? just before the glove? Absurd. How can they let shit like this pass?

It does exist yet it's not a scientific law, It is all over Art theory (painting, drawing, sculpture, even comics) For example Comic Book Hero's proportions are usually 9 heads while regular humans goes from 5 to 8 . The comparative bone structure between races I mention before is "not scientific" per se but it does point out some prominent characteristics of each race.

Black males usually had a wider distance between shoulders and a prominent chest compared to a Caucasian, Their bones are wider resulting in robust limbs etc..

Also yeah white hands are retarded and what about when he drops Med Kits? .. He sound like a teen from 90210 or the OC.

#33 Posted by big_jon (5100 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

So, why does the 195 lbs guy look 275 lbs?

#34 Posted by IllyAl (8 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

@big_jon: proportionally a guy who is a muscular 195 standing at 5'11 can look pretty fucking big.

I'm into body building, that guy is not 195 lbs.

I have a friend who body builds he is 5'10" and 225lbs, he is not that big at all.

#36 Posted by BraveToaster (12588 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

I understand what you mean by the faces, but you sound pretty stupid when you talk about bodies. Bodies come in all shapes and sizes; body types aren't restricted to a specific race.

Yeah, not in any specific way that you could see through a military uniform.

#38 Posted by Intro (1035 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

Does it make me racist that I actually spent about 5 minutes looking for a way to change his skin color?

#39 Posted by AngeTheDude (576 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

This thread is really weird.

#40 Edited by Beaudacious (891 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

WTF is going on in here, my brain does not understand......help me Will Smith Transmorphitron

#41 Posted by RandomInternetUser (6779 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

@DonPixel: Have you noticed some of the assault voice samples are clearly a white dude? I can't remember a black dude voice sample at all.

I personally think he looks like a perfectly normal black dude, but the voice thing is kinda sloppy/funny.

#42 Posted by Raineko (373 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

Yeah I actually rather wanna be a white dude because, you know.. I am white. But the US assault should actually be able to jump twice as high that would be funny.

#43 Posted by Clonedzero (2111 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

the only thing that bugs me about them changing him to be black is that when you play as him, your arms are still white.

#44 Posted by Feikken (216 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

these things are trivial and shouldn't even be considered when playing this game.

who gives a fuck what they look like... shoot the guy!

There's a good reason why there's no scientific evidence for it. It's false and kind of racist.

#46 Posted by SoldierG654342 (1366 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

Maybe the guy got a head transplant. You don't know where medical science is in the BF world. Hell, just look at the defibrillators

#47 Posted by TheHumanDove (2005 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

THATS RACIST

#48 Posted by MikkaQ (9716 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

I haven't even looked at any of the player models up close. Too busy poking many, many holes in them.

#49 Edited by DonPixel (2009 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

@mazik765: Identifying racial characteristics doesn't make you racist, denying the existence of general knowledge, a theory, or basic guidelines of a field you are not familiar with do make you ignorant.
