Recently the developers announced that the other races will be getting the same style armor as donned by the humans in the recent trailer.

Basically the developers were overwhelmed by the amount of positive response they some how took this to mean that this armor would look great on all races. This means that the armor is available to all races, similar to many MMOs out there.


I am concerned that this will ruin the Stargate experience. Since the great thing about SG is that all the races are unique, each with their own technology, culture and history. Standardised armor would completely destroy that.

It will ruin the Jaffa (cakes LOL) if you can't wear the kind of cobra armour they had in teh early episodes. :(

Yea, all I want from the Jaffa are these armor types:

I way prefer the snake to the hawk one for some reason, but I do think the frail little asgard need something...maybe a loincloth :D

as for humans what's wrong with combats?

Yea I'd much prefer that they just stuck to the series, design wise. HUmands in standard army gear. Asgard, loincloth lol. Jaffa, either in that weird chain mail vest that Tielc wears sometimes, or just Serpent/Horus guard armor.

I could see the human and Asgaurd wearing similar armor, simply because we've never seen the Asgaurd in a combat role, so it would make sense that they would go to battle in a non-nude fashion and humans would copy the tech.
Jaffa on the other hand, I don't see them wearing anything other than their traditional combat gear. That will be a mistake.
But on the brightside, everyone getting the same armor skins means thats one whole stage of planning and development thats done with, meaning the game should come out that much quicker.

Fair enough Rygar, but they could alos skip texturing anything and then the game would be out even faster! if you catch my drift...I don't care if I have to wait. I'd prefer a polished game to one with holes that's why I love Blizzard.
