why can’t my company of sexy war vixens flaunt their luscious redhead/blonde/brunnete/black ponytail as it moves gracefully with the wind as they kill men and other women effortlesslly and look good while doing so?
besides it’s the 1940s, there are so many great hairstyles to go with, It’s not like the game really is that authentic to begin with… WWII was a horrible time indeed, howerver the fashion was great, it’s such a big wealth of visual language that DICE just completely ignores.
look at Rainbow Six: Siege! look at the ladies there, all stylish with lots of unique hairstyles and some even dye their hair green and still look ready for action. why are do all the ladies in BFV have to be this depressingly bald?
and while at it, why not the men too? why can’t my hunky Gunther squad get the “Harvard Clip”… helmets? I’m not always wearing those in this game and… you know what?! I want my male soldiers to have long hair too! give me a kilt, a beard and long hair, put me Bren Gun on this lad and a sword.
yeah those “crazy” costumizations everyone were so angry about, turns out this game might use some personalization that actually pop up and look unique, at least while still be era authentic.
I seem to remember seeing on one video what appeared to be a current version of BFV where characters had hair. It wasn’t super long, it wasn’t crazy, but it was there. Its somewhat a shame we don’t have that option, as it means if we do get the americans we won’t be able to get the mohawk style for the airborne, but I guess there aren’t a lot of “signature” styles that would require the option.
I mean just generally some hair would be good. While the armed forces did have fairly strict uniform regulations, and the haircuts were normally quite neat at least based off historical photos, I don’t think the entire British (or German) army had buzz cuts. And giving us the option to just not have any headgear would be nice as well as a free alternative default appearance.
I really don’t get this mindset of ‘oh, you can play as a woman so why not have jet packs and plasma guns as well’. It’s taking stuff completely out of context and proportion. When you play the game, you do get a feeling of ‘OK, this is at least based off WW2’. It might not be entirely accurate, but the base theme is there, with the weapons, vehicles, locations etc.
Yer, if you look at actual images of WW2, men didn’t just have buzzcuts, and, the women who fought (mainly talking about Russian snipers), had hair just above the shoulders, generally, or a ponytail.
You can be historically accurate and still have hair lol. In fact, it’d be more historically accurate lol.
They’re soldiers. What should they look like, Betty Grable? Enough of this nonsense please. Bad enough i hear more women screaming on this game in battle than an Arianna Garande concert.
Well, when they come out with Russian snipers we’ll talk about it. Not many British or Germans had those hairstyles…in fact… Look, i’m NOT going there. We’ll wait for the Russians.
