    No, the deluxe armor looks different. Look at the chest plate and the yellow stuff on the arms for instance.

    Nope, it's<a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/cache/thumbnails/SpecialArmor_Render2_800x450.jpg" target="_blank"> different</a>. My best guess is that it's an unused variation, but they could end up using it for something in the future?


    I wonder how many sandwiches he keeps in those pockets.

    So it's either an earlier or later iteration of the model.

    Ah, interesting. That wasn't supposed to be publically released. There were 2 different variations created for new marine versions, one of which we chose to use for the Deluxe addition. We are still deciding what to do with this other variation.

    Guess you get a sneak peek of it :)

    Well I think it would be cool if people that preordered before Steam got that variation or both

    But that is my opinion, but what ever you decide to do with it I am sure it will be a good choice.

    I like the chest piece but not the pockets. I would have slapped the chest piece from the deluxe marine on there and put this guys plate on the deluxe.

    HAHA, I've not been mentioning that. I discovered that as I have been doing a lot of work with models lately for my mod. I very nearly stole the model to use for team 2 in Proving Grounds, but decided against it so I wouldn't be denied UWE's eternal gratitude.... :)

    This one looks better! I hate the naked arms and the weird thong flap thing. Also the flat armour is weird. Other design was much better. If any armour is to have skin showing, it should be the female armour!

    I agree.

    It would be a shame for one to go to waste anyway.

    It would be nice if the deluxe version had a slightly different colour or look, it just doesn't stand out much from the default one, it should at least be half as cool as the black one, also why not add some <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/forums/index.php?showtopic=120904" target="_blank">new alien skins</a> for a bit of variety?

    I don't think there's a way to switch yet, but there will be.

    I think one of the devs said something about different alien skins last week, but I can't remember the details.
