The mask issue

#1

So this not a game breaking issue much like the crazy predlocks!

However this is a visual issue that just makes the game look sloppy.

So we all know how a mask looks after its been shot off! More like a replica mask no real face hole or whatever! Thats fine cause the detail doesn’t need to be there!

The big issue is how certain mask! Mainly CH, Alpha, Saber, and Cant remember the name but it looks like a future looking mask! These mask all seem to just float on the preds face rather like the movies where they are clipped in and snug to the face offering a Unique look to them!

This is just unpleasant to the eye! Like Why does my pred look like Crash Bandicoot where the oggie-bogga mask lol!!

@Noktrum I know you will know what im talking about!!

i dont think that the films explored the lore of the mask. I dont recall there being anything behind them or wires and shit…so. I drum it up to the lack of anyone wanting to be blamed for making a low poly study of whats behind that shit. But I understand your query. I never thought that it would be that shiny behind it…plain ass jane.

But know i imagine there would be holes and stuff for where gases would come out of . Just common sense stuff.

Oh… don’t even mention that CH mask abomination to me…

Yes, I know exactly what you mean. I really think that Illfonic can improve some of the masks, they have the right personnel (Mr Black mask is a goddamned masterpiece) I’m talking not only how some mask fit the head, but also how they look. JH could use a improvement also tbh…

Which brings up the question for myself, i never seen the Mr.Black mask blown off in detail. It must look a little different no?

Neca models their masks in great detail. Illfonic is already copying some of Neca designs, why not mask interiors?

Yesss!!! I don’t really mind the proportions of the mask! Like the crest being to small! Cause if you look at some of the high grades models of the CH the mask varies between models! However they all have that round face on the bottom and the under jaw covering!!

Even the crest there isnt as large as it is seen in the movie at times! It must be the angles they were filming att

Thats true, camera work dose most of it tbh, but you have to admit - what we have in game has NOTHING to do with the original design. Wierd, especially when Mr Black mask is a goddamned clone fo the original…

Ohhh yeah!!! It is weird! I mean cant expect them to do everything correctly shit for the first 2 months the CH was out he had his medical roar as his main roar lol!!!

Mr. Black mask is great very detailed!! Some of the shaders are a little weird on it but thats just a color!!

Jh mask seems to be done well. Minus the under the jaw part and oddly large bullet mark!!

The recent new mask as well are all very well done!

I hope for a real chopper and Celtic mask in the future

The interior is only seen in requiem and the Predator. Other than that we don’t have an official appearance for mask interiors. Hoses would also need to connect on all predators so we can ignore them for simplicity and that not every Predator uses hoses.

Agreed. there is little cupping of the face and just looks slapped on. Maybe they really wanted an emphasis on these masks looking very different from the film type masks. Maybe beecause they want ppl to see the difference of the style.i guess. they probably didnt want it to compete with the film versions as they are considerably more heavier.

Cool! but the good mask I don’t think fits with the predator of the game, I think it started like that and they molded it to adapt it

Please keep in mind while mask is on in game, mandibles are extreamly squeezed in closed position so they don’t stick out.

They may have to make two heads, one without a mask and with its movement and another without a face only with the mask, total in the game when you break the mask it explodes they could do it so that it changes to the other head
