[POLL] Should the currently gender-locked classes stay gender locked? (Hear me out) | Forums

[Cynath.]

I'm totally fine with it, a few years ago they would be all male and we wouldn't probably even complain. If they want to change anything, leave big guy and Valk as only gender locked option, as even a female warlord makes sense.

This sounds like a good compremise to me, even tho a female Shugoki and male Valkyrie would be awesome. if they manage to make them look good that is.

One of the reasons for single-gender classes (I think) is that they couldn't produce good enough character in time. Character being the model, the voice, the animations, all that stuff.
I also think someone had already said that.

A solid "don't give a damn" from me . With tendencies towards "yes", as they are rather fine the way they are, and I'd rather like the considerable resources to be spent on such a trivial thing to be better used for more content for game.

i really really hope they wont be genderlocked forever. i really want a female lawbringer and dont see why a female couldnt be a lawbringer? or why a female cant use a sword and shield and be a warlord?

I cant believe we are still discussing this...

I tried so hard to refrain from commenting on this but...

I really dislike any class being gender locked only of ONE sole reason: the sound effects!
I want to play my favorite class as male only because i cannot stand female shouting, grunting and crying in games. It always freaksme out.

To put the argument in context, the devs said for a year and a half that you could pick a character in multiplayer and customise everything about them, from their armour, to their weapons, to their skin tone, and yes, to their gender, before stating at Gamescom a few months ago that the 'new' classes---that is, the ones not present in the Alphas---would each be gender locked. This, I believe, is the primary cause of the outrage. It smacks of deception or betrayal.

Stopped reading there.
Deception and betrayal? How naive do you have to be to not understand that a game in development is subject to change? This happens all the time. Nothing is final until the game launches.
Halo was originally an RTS.

That being said, It's a shame some classes are gender locked, but gamebreaker? Hardly.

You probably should have kept reading. He said he understood basically in the next line.

Ahh, gotcha.
This is what happens when you're too cool to read an entire post. Lesson learned.
