Ugly looking Sterile masks
Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
I always enjoy new sprites, however the new sprite for the Sterile mask is just straight up ugly. Please bring back the old Sprite.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
It will improve the aesthetics immensely, and allow snowflakes to rest easy at night.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
You could look cool with the old Sterile mask, but now with this new 'See-Through' mask, you just look
straight up creepy. A see through mask? Really? Just look around you to see those nice looking white masks IRL.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Bring back the old sprite.

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
Also a side note, the new combat knives also look ugly as ass. Ask any marine.

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
Yeah, sadly... I gotta agree. I think we should either change it or have it back to the old one. The current ones look pretty bad

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
Also another side note, the WHITE sterile masks make it easier for marines to see a medic.

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
When I heard about this, I didn't think it was a big deal.. until I actually saw it. Looks more like one of those masks that soldiers wear over their faces then a Surgical/Medical mask.
For dramatic effect, this is what I think of when I took a good look at the new sprite.

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
But it does not even look anywhere close to that. And what is a medic let alone a Doctor doing with a mask like that? A separate combat mask yeah, but this is a Sterile mask.Garrison wrote:When I heard about this, I didn't think it was a big deal.. until I actually saw it.

"Memories can be vile. Repulsive little brutes, like children I suppose. But can we live without them? Memories are what our reason is based upon. If we can't face them, we deny reason itself! Although, why not? We aren't contractually tied down to rationality. There is no sanity clause. So when you find yourself locked down in an unpleasant train of thought, heading for the places in your past where the screaming is unbearable, remember: There's always madness. You can just step outside and close the door, and all those dreadful things that happened, you can lock them away. Madness... is an emergency exit."

I don't see the problem, personally I think they're an improvement. More detailed.

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
More detailed? A simple and realistic White mask will suffice I believe. Also I just does not look right, It is a downgrade if anything. Don't fix what's not broken?Rain7x wrote:I don't see the problem, personally I think they're an improvement. More detailed.

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
I think what makes it displeasing is that compared to the cyan color that outlined the mask. The black outlines and grey shading doesn't give that "clean and pristine" look that some Doctors have gotten accustomed too; myself included.Breen wrote:More detailed?

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
I actually like them to be honest. A little weird at first but ten minutes of looking at them and I really like it.

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
Really? I don't know man. I'm willing to pay money just to get a white sterile mask. I'll literally drop $20 just to have my precious white mask.

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
I can look into making it different if that helps. The old one didn't really fit with the rest of our uniforms, but I'm open to suggestionsBreen wrote:Really? I don't know man.

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
Alright, well, in my opinion the thing that is wrong with the current one, is that it looks SORTA good, besides the fact that it is too bolded on the edges. It makes it look like... less of a medical mask, and more like it is actually part of your face some how. Try to compare it back to the old bluer medical masks and make it look like that a bit more, less boldSecretStamos (Joshuu) wrote:I can look into making it different if that helps.

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
I understand where you are coming from, however sterile masks are not apart of the uniform. I don't think it should have to go Hand in hand with our uniforms. These are medical masks, not necessarily for military use. I believe the Sterile White masks looked great and were perfect for what they were supposed to be. I believe a simple change back to the old masks would not only be easier but it would be more of an accepted change, rather then trying to test out different designs and color schemes. Go with what works right? Anyways thank you for taking the time to look into this.SecretStamos (Joshuu) wrote:I can look into making it different if that helps.

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
Or as others have suggested, a light medical blue, but with a nice outline that stands out. Not like the current masks which look see through.

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
I think they look fine. I think a small hue change could make them pop a bit more so snowflakes are happy.
The new medical masks are A+

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
I would like a sprite that you could pick up from behind an anaesthetic tank, but I think that those are medical masks? That sprite I wouldn't mind seeing changed, either.

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
Ah, it looks better now. Only problem is that is a bit weird when you are turned to the side, you know how on the blueish one it was tiny little strings basically? I think the ones are a bit too thick, but I must admit, if you did that all by yourself you have some really good fucking talent. Good job.

Re: Ugly looking Sterile masks
I was actually thinking the same thing about the side view, it definitely is a bit thick. I'll look into lessening it a little. I think I overcompensated a little hahahaRustarus wrote:Ah, it looks better now.
