So as the title says, is it?
I have a few friends who are ladies ;) who I've talked to about this game and even shown. They think it's awesome, but have asked me why there isn't a female marine. I explained to them, and showed them the old footage of the model viewer displaying the female marine walk/run cycles, but want to know if it's going to be implemented soon at some point. Even if you just randomly spawn as a male or female, it would be wicked.
TL:DR:
We need more chicks playing NS2!!!

But I'm sure it will come down the line, far line. With the inevitable outcry for black armor variation as well.
that explains the pregnant like belly and the constant vomiting.

Where is the like button on this thread?
I think that's for each individual female to decide, based on the people they meet and the experience they have. Same goes for the males, actually.

Agreed, there are much more pressing concerns than the implementation of a female model
But it's positive racism!

Cory, do we know if a similar system is intended for NS2, or will your appearance be reflected to all players this time around? Either's fine with me, though I have to admit I liked the random factor in the first game.
I don't see why the female marine couldn't just use the regular marine animations, at least for V1. it probably wouldn't even need a different viewmodel.
Because it would be the first call out in a sour review.
honestly I don't imagine anyone would notice. Aside from a potentially different "idle" pose (if NS2 uses them) and "walk" animation (players probably always run anyway), female characters don't need to move any different from Male. It's just a slight difference in hip range of motion.
Just jokin' about the speed boost for other races btw :P
Kenyans: +400% speed boost.

Actually the gorge is male while the onos is female. Gorges mate with Onoses (or Oni) behind the scenes.
