>create dramatic original design
>scrap it for waifubait
Was it worth it, Dreadlockbros?

ivyfags are delusional, the game is in development and the old model was a rough gargoyle draft before they had a style on lock

clinging on to the old model is no different than insisting HL1 should have kept the alpha model for barney despite the game's style clearly evolving to the point where it doesn't fit

>>717307034
They should have kept the barney model

Oh no! The DEADLOCK FANDOM is upset!
The DEADLOCK PLAYERBASE is angry!
The DEADLOCK FANS AND GAMERS, all the DEADLOCK COMMUNITY is up in arms!...

all fifteen of them!

Dunno if I'd call a 1930's newspaper boy as a rat is "original"

>>717307207
Avg daily peak playercount recently is ~14k which is actually pretty good

>>717307034
No, you're retarded. No one said the model couldn't be updated. What we're protesting is the "beauty" change. She could have a better model thats still "ugly-cute" rather than just "cute" - it would be better representative of the themes of the character.

>>717307289
yeah there's so many characters that are a sexy but scary gargoyle dressed as a 1930s newsie. VERY common character trope

>>717307314
>which is actually pretty good
Maybe if you compare it to shartifact or blunderlords

>>717307207
I just think its interesting, like when they changed the yordles

>>717307504
there are 0 characters in this game that aren't disgusting to look at, making the gargoyle cute makes her stand out

>>717307314
how is that "pretty good"?
What playerbase do the Valve games in "maintenance mode" have? Those games Valve decided to abandon because they weren't worth their time? Is it smaller than 14k?
Valve is a small studio, they're stingy with dev time.
Is this a Valve-tier success, that they will pour more dev time into?

Remember, once Valve used to abandon project before even announcing them, before even releasing them.
Nowadays though they've shown they're comfortable doing an abortion even after the baby is born. Artifact was alive for three long years.

>>717307458
clearly they aren't the themes of the character if just a year after she was conceptualized they're doing a model update that makes her less ugly
she has a very naive personality and it comes across a lot better with the new design

>>717307574
Deadlock character designs are /v/ approved now, though.

>>717307624
>how is being in the top 100 out of 100,000+ "pretty good?"

>>717307841
No they aint

Ivy is the one who changed the most tho

Interesting how people formed a picture in their head so different from the big snouty face onscreen

>>717308227
He ran out of cocoa butter

>>717308486
Mcginnis barely looked like that in-game, the same thing happened with Infernus; they're switching over from using concept art for portraits to renders of the actual in-game models for consistency.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>717307841
What the fuck did they do to Infernus, take that stupid fucking junkrat hair off

>>717307940
meee ^_^ !!!!

>>717307841

what's the wardens fate?

from what i remember his design is completely decoupled from the moveset

>>717305864 (OP)
Sex

>>717308659
didn't they do this as a joke
surely they didn't legitimately hide her feet? i'm not even a foot faggot but that was part of her character
THERE WAS EVEN A FUCKING VOICE LIKE THAT OMINOUSLY JUST SAID "FEET" AT TIMES

>>717307841
I want to play as homeless Dracula.

>>717307841
I hated Valve's character design for a long time, I'm glad people are catching on.

Look at this fucking idiot designing these characters:
see "DYNAMO", look at the changes he made.
All the shapes are different, ALL OF THEM, he changed everything, every little piece.
That's hours and hours of work.
What was achieved?
What does the New Dynamo have over the old one?
This fucking retard remodeled the character from the ground up, and ended up EXACTLY THE SAME.
Imagine a person saying "well old Dynamo? I would never have played with that character, but this new Dynamo is better, I like him!"
Can you imagine this? A person saying these words? Does it make sense to you?
NO!
Because you're not a moron!
He IS a moron!
How can he not see it?
Look at that shit!
Do we want to discuss the tiny changes he did to the shape language?
Ok, fine!

The old one looked like Mr Freeze, he had a slightly threatening aura of a science experiment gone wrong, he had a TINY TINY edge of coolness to him, you can imagine a human head suspended in that black void.
The new one looks like a BALD SHORT FAT CARTOON MAN with dorky glasses! The fat Mormon kid you were making fun of in school, but in robot form.

I could look at the other characters, but Dynamo truly showcases the IDIOCY, the LACK OF BRAIN POWER, the FUTILITY of these stupid fucking choices.

>>717308659
Can't have shit, man

>>717308659
it's over

>>717308634
>>717308673
i liked him better before

>>717307841
Every single redesign is worse.
Why are they like this?

lmao, ivyfags lost because they made the ugly goblin they like cute

>>717308790
He was never supposed to be threatening, he's a college professor. You're reading into designs that you have zero context for.

>>717309051
I'm sorry I found a 1% coolness factor in the previous design, that wasn't supposed to be there

>>717309138
Why can't you just admit to being wrong?

>>717309030
they way overcorrected, frankly
she looks like a mouse now

>>717307121
>Dracula approval 17%
>Evil Demon Illidan
Fuck you, made me respond. Have a tyranid.

>>717309192
What am I wrong about?
It's good that the character looks uncool because the "storyline" says he's lame?
Very good, bravo valve! You sold me on the idea, he's a fucking paunchy professor! Nice!
Now let me pick a different character

>>717309051
>The character isn't supposed to mean anything
Then the character sucks.

>>717308659
reddit shit the game has lines about her walking on bare foot on NYC

>>717307121
all the designs on the right look like shit though??

>>717307841
Why even bother with a weird visual theme if you're just going to sand everything down into flavorless mush?

>>717309480
thanks, you made me appreciate the lore of this cool character, see you on the battlefield gamer

>>717309207
yeah, she could've been more gargoyle looking, i know that people liked the ugly on the outside thing she seemed to have because of her design also.

>>717308659
This is infinitely worse than gargoyle redesign

>>717309498
Abrams, Dynamic and Vindicta are all big downgrades.

Please tell me they are finally Retconning lady Geist being an old hag

>>717307841
>Infernus
They need to add the deep black shading to the model

>Lash
I love it

>Vindicta
Super meh new design

What???

Otherwise approved

Did they even touch Yamato?

>>717308673
It's not his hair, he's just on fire.

>>717307121
Hold on, for the robot one the left design should have a 90% approval rating, since players always choose the side with the exact robot design, making the game unbalanced

>>717307841
I like how doorman looks like hercules

>>717309590
>dynamo
>downgrade
don't know how you could possibly think this, the old one looked horrible, same with abrams

>>717309749
Oh, well that can go either way, I'd need to see it in motion

>>717309691
>Yamato
What does she think about?

>>717309438
it's almost like that's the point he's trying to make or something

>>717307896
this is /v/, a shithole that schizo'd itself into believeing that Deadlock was a finished and fully released game

>>717307841
You niggers are bugging, they ALL look good now.

>>717309821
admittedly abrams looking retarded suited him as a dumb tank but the model is still better

>>717309553
there was tons of 'in-between' art that made her cuter but still grotesque (pun) because her voice just didnt make the most sense coming out of the old model, there was no sense of softness at all
she literally had the vegeta hairline
the rounded banana ears were also bad, the shape of her head and having no chin making her look more like a worm
there were model edits that fixed the most egregious parts but if they really wanted a bigger redesign, shift her more batlike (vampire bat) instead of mouse because that new ivy is too pixar cute

>>717310073
everything

>>717307841
Abrams is good
Dynamo grew on me, it's fine
I don't like Infernus possibly having a tail in the new model. I don't like that all Ixians seem to just be cartoon devils with horns/spade tails.
nuIvy is cute but she should have gnarly teeth like old Ivy
Geist is fine
Lash is great
I like McRiviter
Mirage has like 4 models and they need to stop
Pocket cute, so is Vin
Do not like Viscous. It's bad and might actually ruin the character for me
Wraith is just an update
new heroes all look cool. I think Frank needs to wear a shirt or coat. put 'em away slut.

>>717310316
they removed the badge because All Cops are Bastards ACAB and we celebrate the memory of George Floyd here, nobody would ever want to play as a cop, it's yucky and problematic

>>717310589
shut the fuck up

>>717307543
>>717307314
neither of you are genuine. you're just shit flinging for the love of the game or you're some autistic shill trying to do some gay console war bullshit.

>>717307841
I am assuming the old designs are the left ones and I must say they are way worse now. i can understand that they were probably placeholders but almost all of them look worse. I am too much of a brain let to explain how or why but I can feel like the new ones are too detailed in some areas unnecessarily

>>717310682
welcome to /v/, don't enjoy your stay

>>717309207

>>717310726
>>717309207
we haven't even seen the model from a second angle yet, i doubt they're rounded off like a mouse, they're just angled backwards

Infurnus is literally the just the same, you guys are making it up

every twitter artstyle game goes through the redesign for rule34 audience, if they don't they end up with concord

>>717308659
they'll bring back the legs as an arcana tier cosmetic

>>717310887
They need a license to operate in many countries, because they move around sensitive areas and often do suspicious things and talk to police and witnesses and enter crime scenes, sometime with professional recording equipment or even a weapon. So I think some of them do have badges to avoid pulling out a stack of stamped paper every time they meet a curious or stubborn or hostile policeman who doesn't believe them.

he already has fire on his head in-game, the new fire just looks shitty

>>717311331
>concept art shading mogs the heck out of rendered model
thats the one thing I can agree and not just for Infernus

they should take a page out of riot's book and make lots of supplementary materials to make people actually give a shit about the characters instead what they did with dota2: barebones lore with stock characters with generic designs and then a comic + shitty tv show way years later and far too late
this kind of shit is not what makes people want to invest creatively in your universe
lore should not come from microtransaction cosmetic descriptions and wiki pages for things in your fantasy universe should be long and full of details not "place is a place where a character comes from."

>>717305864 (OP)

They're probably going to do it when the game is fucking out anon. It's still in like, pre-alpha stage. We're not even supposed to see any of this and the only reason we are is because of some retarded russian.

>>717310472

Too soon, anon

game is too transparently depthful to be good. actually successful games that are also insanely challenging to master are also deceptively simple. even dota as big of a time sink to git gud as it is, is incredibly simple to pick up and enjoy. the experience of deadlock for just about everybody is coming to an immediate understanding that the game is just really hard in a lot of different ways and will require thousands of hours to just be okay at. never gonna be a thing guys

I hate how they dehagified Geist. The original looks like she'd make joi cei porn, while her boyfriend is forced to practice locktober. New model is too vanilla.

Still be worked on. Vavle realized they fucked up letting people play it so early so they left the alpha that was put out a year ago rot while they work on the real game

>>717323463
Valve made a extra secret secret beta build that no one can play with all the new changes and characters in it while everyone else is still stuck on the three lanes build.
This has caused everyone to stop playing the game completely and not give a shit about it as Valve gave everyone a middle finger.

>>717325983
Just be part of the secret clique lol

Flopping tranny deadcock.

>>717325983
the secret club is necessary because opening the alpha to basically anyone so early was a retarded decision

The eyebrow is an 80s thing, but Lash is an underground fighter, so it is entirely possible for it to be the result of a past injury.

>>717307458
No one likes 'ugly-cute', troon.

i am quite fond of the ugly little creature
>>717326995
ever had a ugly dog anon? the kind with an eye missing and scratch marks an some strange rash that didnt quite go away and fur is missing in some places? but despite all that you still love the thing dearly? its kinda like that, things can be pretty and lovable despite being by all definitions "ugly"

>>717310804
Only trannies complain when a character is made less ugly.

>>717327319
Even a fucking pug is cuter than Ivy bro. Just fucking accept that there is no hope for Ivy's current ugly design and that it HAS to be fixed.

>>717310316
>>717310617
He’s not a police officer dude. He canonically gambles with criminals like Wraith and Krill. This model was probably done really early back when they maybe he was a cop

>>717327421
i think shes cute in a gremlin kinda way

>>717308659
Is it real?

I was a lot more excited when deadlock was half life citadel and not some quirky heroslop, valve is a dogshit company and it's playtesting team should be lead out the back and shot

>>717326114
It's a even more retarded decision to decide to take it away from the people they already decided would be allowed to play it.

>>717327478
No, she's just butt-ass ugly in game.

>>717307841
infernus looks way worse and it should be reverted (it won't be)
ivy was obviously toned down to look less monstrous and i think that's lame
geist looks way more generic and forgettable
pocket looks worse but he didn't look good to begin with; he just looks sickly now but they're probably trying to make it less obvious he's a man (it isn't working)
lash looks a little worse, not a huge downgrade but not better in any way
wraith is the only straight upgrade
can't be arsed to care about the rest one way or the other

I keep seeing the Ivy redesign image but when the fuck are they going to update the game to actually add said redesign to the game?

>>717305864 (OP)
I don't play this game or shill for it but I would say yes, this is an overall improvement.

>>717328178

>invent some OC elves instead to circle your story around instead
the funniest part is that Marci is the one to get put into the game. THEY KILL HER OFF and she gets added instead of the elf oc they even gave a clear skill set in the show.

I refuse to ackonwledge Deadlock as anything else but a failed project. They made Dota but le shooting too. Doesn't work, it's shit as a MOBA and shit as a shooter. Wasted resources on some bullshit bravo Valve

I like this and I think it's better. Nobody is convincing me otherwise.

>>717305864 (OP)
but where is her updated player model? they updated her character portrait but not implement her new model?

>>717323463
well it's doing better than smite 2 now

you mean the company that cancelled hytale, spent a decade on a tag fighter game with 10 characters, and restarted their mmo project three times?

I have completely erased my memory of that failed abortion of a show except for a few webms of fake Auroth but everyone involved in that failed abortion admitted they didn't give a shit about the game and the writers never played it, it was an OC script at the Korra studio they had left on a drawer and they just slapped a coat of paint over it.
>have a cool setting with 100+ heroes to choose who you want to make your story about
TO BE FAIR a lot of it is recycled Warcraft shit, for the worse. You can only do so much with notSylvanas and notMalfurion. Only the game matters, at best sprinkle some light hearted stuff like Crownfall.

A year ago I asked them to have her always be floating, even if she's "on the ground" since she's a ghost, so maybe it's my fault

>>717335478
And their big game still has a buggy, crash-prone client from 2012. Not to mention the limitations of the game proper and their inability to upgrade it or the client.

I was honestly kinda scared of Riot fucking over Deadlock by printing out a sloppy copy of their own, like they did with TFT and Valorant. But while Valorant is somewhat successful, it ultimately didn't make a dent to CS. Could because of the early issues with Vanguard but who knows. And as for the rest of their crap? Failure after failure.
Even fucking Arcane, which was a good show (season 1 at least), failed completely as an ad for the League universe. Riot's on borrowed time.

At least Abrams, Vindicta and Wraith are net improvements. McGinnis is good but they should add back some grime to her.

>ivyfags when you make the model match the fanart.
You guys are a loud minority. more then 80% of the porn of this character LOOKS like the new fucking model.

>>717307841
I liked old ivy only because I had thought it was a nice subversion of having what you'd think would be some raspy voiced or screechy wild character actually be sweetly voiced and actually turn out to be a well adjusted person despite their appearance. But I guess that wasnt actually what Valve was thinking and it was just a WIP.

Wraith is upgraded

And I like Mcginnis invoking that WW2 Rosie the Riviter poster

Viscous is shit. He'll always be shit until he actually looks time period correct. I still dont know why they dont just put him in a diving suit.

Giving Lash eyes is a mistake cause his old design invoked those old photographs were a man with a strong brow ridge would have his eyes hidden in shadow. Which really did help the ye old knuckle boxer/pugilist vibe that you'd see with pic related being an example.

Anything that upgrades old Pockets retarded fucking yee yee ass haircut is good.

Bookworm looks like pixarbait cancer tho which is the only issue that I have with nu ivy. Way too Overwatchy/Pixarish in looks.

>>717336645
>Follow the herd, goy!
Shut the fuck up.

>>717307121
Ironically the generic anime girl is less generic than the zombie since she is just a regular girl with her guts out and you don't see that every day.
If both are generic people are going to go with the generic but cute one. Also a few of the left side ones are really loved designs by people and quite popular, or are you going to tell me that Castlevania's Dracula is not popular?

>>717336739
not my problem shithead I never liked the character and I still dont. Enjoy having the character "ruined" for you because your likeness for her was literally skindeep and based on how she looks. You're as bad as the retards that dont like her because she was ugly.

>>717305864 (OP)
>Was it worth it, Dreadlockbros?
nope
>>717307314
lmao.

they had a goldmine and they flooded it with their own shit

>>717336732
I agree with all of these points.
>Bookworm looks like pixarbait cancer tho which is the only issue that I have with nu ivy. Way too Overwatchy/Pixarish in looks.
It all started with Marci.

>>717305864 (OP)
Is this the only goddamn pic and angle you got of her new look?

>>717337048
yes because it's a leak from an internal test version of the game

>>717307121
Both Dracula and Shinobu are good designs, though. Shinobu in that form is the culimation of everything that happened in Kizu, where she looked like this instead.
Just admit you're a homo if this stuff bothers you by the way

>>717307034
Ivy fags are delusional because they were attracted to a disgusting rat, now they're mad that she's not AS ugly (still ugly though)

>>717307121
>implying illadin and generic vampire don't have the female audience

>>717307034
But it was that old model which people liked, and made porn of (more porn than all the other characters summed).
Somehow, you failed to understand something quite obvious.

>>717307841
infernus, geist, and vindicta needed portrait updates anyway; they were based on older concepts.
it's a shame, i do like middle-aged geist, but her canon is already set. her entire character backstory and lore is she has eternal youth but has to keep feeding oathkeeper. it's a completely binary situation. either she's youthful because oathkeeper is granting her youth, or she's dead because oathkeeper wasn't fed. it doesn't make much sense for her to be showing any wear and tear except on oathkeeper's arm and the ward that is restraining it.

>>717307841
I really don't like nu viscous
>mysterious deep sea alien who basically had to turn himself into a space suit to survive at such low pressure. Voice lines about "forming a new body" or "this suit is useful"
vs
>body type and fashion sense of the average American tourist

>>717342419
the goo is his suit, it only looked like a spacesuit because the placeholder model was cobbled together from the old sci-fi version of the game

>>717307841
So they just went straight flubber with viscous

>>717342419
>mysterious deep sea alien
What are you on about, he's a sentient anemone visiting New York. The things an actual tourist.

>>717337490
Literally all of her fanart made her look the way she officially looks now. It's pretty clear that look is what people actually want, like when people beautify ugly ass league of legends characters. The only people complaining that she now officially looks like literally all of her fanart are /v/iggers who are more contrarian than man.

>>717307121
Left is unoriginal trash
Right is innovative spins on shitty tropes

There was plenty of model-accurate Ivy, fuck your disingenuous bullshit
One day it's
>hurr who cares about artists drawing shit offmodel
The next it's
>LOOK EVERYONE DRAWS HER OFFMODEL THAT'S HOW SHE'S MEANT TO BE

>>717337490
Most of the porn is off model and resembles her current version more so than the old one

>>717344380
The cute Ivy far outweighed the on model Ivy in both number and pooularity.

>>717344380
Seethe faggot

>>717307841
Funny how the movie monsters like abrams and frank stand out the least and match the universe the best while the others look like they belong in another game.

>>717307841
>>717305864 (OP)
Priest is gonna be one of coolest characters.
And imagine the sick lines he'll have with goth mommy Vampire Bat.

>>717344380
I've literally seen "on model" Ivyfags make posts that say
>Here's some GOOD ON MODEL art!
And attach a picture of cute ivy. You've fools have lost

this is one of the fastest hyped up and then dead games i've ever seen in my life. just goes to show all the hype was completely artifical and paid for.

>>717346280
Also the Priest on Vampire Bat rule 34, naturally.

Why would valve pay shills well over a year before the game even leaves closed alpha?

>>717346409
>valve
>paying to advertise a game that was leaked in alpha
all the hype came from streamerfags thinking they could get their foot in the door on the next counter-strike, then it evaporated when no one wanted to watch it

>>717330008
>he didn't watch season 3
I mean I don't blame you, even if I do consider season 3 a complete saving throw for the series. Filomena was worth it
