I think all of them look bad.
Kate looked awful on the PTB. I really hope they are at least planning on adjusting her animations after all the feedback if they haven't made any changes yet.
To me they all have something that they should tweak, except for Jake and Claudette.
LETS GET SOME BETTER LOOKS AND OUTFITS FOR THE MALES!!! ESPECIALLY DWIGHT AND ADAM ETC
Kate is seem so bad, i hated sadly.
They all look really good except for Kate in my opinion.
Dwight looks like goblin, nothing like the handsome dude from the launch trailer.
There was no adjustment
Everyone except Kate looks 10x better, it’s just nostalgia at play.
Maybe the video was done on a previous build and not the one that goes live tomorrow?
(yeah naive and wishful thinking on my part, but especially for Kate, Meg and Feng the feedback was pretty much universal and I actually expect them to adjust those models/animations..)
what? Dwight looked like a tweaker before the update.
They stripped the personality away out of some of them.
RIP Dwight's scared puppy eyes and Ace's hilarious smirk. BHVR as usual changing stuff that didn't need a change in the first place so you get these weird results.
i really want , skins for the old survivors, the meg lcaudette jake and dwight from the trailer
Nice to see someone who agrees :)
I might be very old fashioned, but there is a reason why many changes get on my nerves.
Kate now looks awful, Quentin's personality is gone. And this list goes on.
Everything is bad.
I don't dislike all of the new models, but just like the map reworks, for me it's a case of the technology being better but the art is worse.
The new dwight looks like a guy who decided to live his life in his closet.
Watch the dbd launch trailer, and tell me it isn't a downgrade from how he looks in it.
Kate looks a bit cuter though
I love them all except Meg's hair. I find them weird.
Outside of that, I can't wait tomorrow. Laurie is one of my favorite rework. I know it's an unpopular opinion, but Feng and Kate looks awesome with their rework.
At least they made Meg a ginger again, the first model was pretty much brunette or dirty blonde without any red hair..
and it seemed to me that Meg and Kate weren’t as angry looking in the new video compared to PTB, that was the only complaint I had for those two :)
You need to see her in game,not the still screenshots that have no animation applied. Her facial animations on PTB made her look permanently pissed off instead her usual "hopeful songbird" expression. Her nose is flared up and her eyebrows angled down like she's about to toss Meg on a hook for missing a skillcheck. They also removed her eye shadow.
I don't think so. Not when the hopeful songbird turned into the pissed songbird.
At least you agree that some of them are bad. That is good enough.
All and all the remodels look fine, in my opinion,except Kate's...she looks mad, her lip gap now bothers me and her elbow.... now gives me nightmares.
Idk, after seeing the new trailer i think they all look good. I was uncertain on Kate and David, but i see what theyre going for, and they are an improvement
I think most of them look a little weird. Kate and meg look really angry all the time but not awful. David and dwight look really goofy. And feng looks absolutely horrendous.
But I have to agree with you that jake is in fact very hot
Well, I agree with your complaints, but... wouldn't you two be pissed if you were trapped in hell?
Some of the other characters look older as well, like they've been here for awhile and they're done with it.
Let's use Trapper as an example, when the game first came out and if he would let out a pained yell, a few years later they changed his audio to a "u r g h" like it hurt a decent amount, but you're more annoyed.
Now with this Trapper, if he steps in it, you'll hear nothing. Like he's just numb to it.
I can't defend Quentin's though, he just changed significantly
I like most of the new models, not really the biggest fan of David, if they fixed Kate's animation then she would look fine.
Nea looks a bit too sad tbh.
They gave Kate an Overbite, like why? She looks so goofy now. 😭
I don't believe in hell's existence. Getting trapped in another dimension would be much more intriguing than infuriating for me.
But leaving that aside, I liked Kate's idea of having hope even in the worst situations, and now...she looks weird.
She actually always kinda had it though?
While that's fair, but getting killed over and over will just destroy you mentally and spiritual.
This isn't about Christian hell, no I just meant that's what I imagine would happen if you were trapped in that plane of existence.
Ace was the same way, but you can see how luck isn't helping anymore
Yeah, but lore-wise Kate is a hopeful songbird that always tries to stay positive.
Benedict Baker even started to simp for her, because of her cheerful and beautiful voice at the campfire.
And to simply put this angry face in her makes no sense.
I mean.. yeah.
You can be happy all you want, but being tortured day in and day out constantly for years will literally change you.
Don't get me wrong, I get the complaints, but it also would make sense as to why she looks so angry
Yeah, but before the rework you couldn't even notice.
I don't see it..
They shouldn't make every character have a permanent snarling animation when they're supposed to have distinct personalities that are reflected in their faces. Ace still has his smirk in game, albeit somewhat changed from before. Dwight still looks scared. Most of the others didn't change much in terms of the emotion in their facial expressions. This is why Kate's rework was so disliked on the PTB feedback forums. BHVR stated the goal was to update them without changing their "look". They went way off base with Kate and haven't responded to any of the criticism so far.
Permanent snarl?
No offense, but that's not a snarl. That's more of an annoyed look
How would you describe these?
Actually based on the new Clip I would say they have improved her face animations!
From top to bottom left to right
1.) Just an actual disgusted look
2.) More of a tired of your ######### look, like when you do something absolutely stupid and your friend isn't joking about how stupid you are and are actually mad at you. (This is the best I can explain, I'm sorry.)
3.) Bratty. Like... how do I describe that anymore...?
4.) You win this round, that's much closer to a snarl
She looks like she just smelt a fart.
Rat.
Current live build for comparison. How anyone can see the "rework" as an improvement is beyond me.
According to Behaviour it makes the characters, what is it again? Oh yeah, "Realistic". According to them...
Considering he works at an office, indoors all the time, in a tiny cubicle. Kind of makes sense for that situation.
Can’t wait for Cybil to not look like a cracked out Leslie Knope.
It seems to me that a lot of the problem with the new models is their animations. It’s almost as if they used the old animation on top of a new 3D model that doesn’t fit them.
I wish the Art team would make their presence known so they could clarify for us. 😓
Correct
Kate's face overall is an improvement, its just Devs not working on their facial expression. I played PTB and Yui has her eye change, from angry look to sad look.
This deepfake vid made her look good (at least for me)
https://twitter.com/Vaporwavebandit/status/1403076376157048835True, I thought the same thing when they started teasing the reworks. The still images with no animation looked good but the in-game previews looked...off. That said, most of them still have their old expressions for the most part. Kate definitely got the worst rework imo, but they could redeem it if they adjust the animation. Praying its not as horrific as it was on PTB D:
Kate, Feng, Yui, David and Cheryl look worse.
The rest looks better more or less. And as for Jake...dunno he looks better but its a completely different person now. If I would play him I would be mad but I dont play male survivors so whatever
