    Default New Armors with Closed Visors: You decide!

    Since I can't seem to be able to start a poll I am going with a regular post! If someone wants to make this an official poll I ask you to please do and credit me in your post.

    OPEN VOTES: 5

    CLOSED VOTES: 20



    Here are some images of the opened visor helms coming to SL and some of the same helmets with a closed visor that I rendered myself (using the original helmets design and simple observation to discern what they would look like closed). The question here is do you like the opened versions or the closed versions? Unfortunately I could not come up with a decent alternative to the op helm. Fortunately Corpser did and his image is what you see below for the operative alternative, Thank You Corpser. Also these pictures do not show the animated glow effects that come with the armors so you have to do your best to imagine a flowing lava commando face plate like the engi arbiters helm except lava.

    I think people should have an option as to if they want it open or closed, so I'll say both.

    I forgot to mention both unfortunately is not an option I have editted that bit of information into the OP, I ask that you make your decision within the parameters of the poll, please edit your post accordingly.

    Thank You for Voting.

    @ Kaytar I am not complaining nowhere in my post is there a complaint. Please do not put words in my mouth or accuse me of doing something I am not this is a poll that is all. As far as my comment on the Op helm goes that is my personal opinion not a complaint. I beg you to use more accurate judgement and courtesy when posting in the future.

    Thank You for Voting.

    I'm really on the fence with this one. I don't particularly like the planned commando helmet, but I'm not too wild about the closed face look either.

    Hate closed visors. Reason I hide hat and/or use a vanity. Also why is this in Off Topic when it's clearly SL?

    Open.

    True the devs could easily make a variation with closed helmets

    i like them closed personally

    i made my own op with a visor but it's not as good as your ones (the blending sucks :P) i think i did alright.... you can see the basic idea

    Awesome concept here xcon! (A bit like the thread that got the necessary changes needed to the 31 Cap gear)

    I actually had one criticism from a Comm's perspective and that was the helm. I would love for that closed visor/helmet to be implemented!

    When I first took a look at the Engi it looked like an elf kind of face, as if you can see the ears an such (Like a little Zelda type head in a big helm, stare at it if you have too lol). That said the gloves/arms look prerty damn neat, and after re-coloured on the second pic look even better again.

    Liked the OP one from the start (:

    And also nice job Corpser looks pretty kick-***! Maybe xcon can add it to the OP as an alternative.

    So taking all into account, I'd have to say Closed. (If both more the merrier, but expect a longer time before the release is made live)

    @Both, I believe he means both is not an option within his Poll. And as everyone knows OPs word is final ;p

    I'd rather have closed on that eng one,but on the commando closed one it looks pretty dumb...it's a blob of nutin.

    The only one that looks pretty good open is the operative helm. The commando one was like open: "Shoot me in the head!" and the engineer one reminds me of oversived turtle necks.

    Both I say

    i believe the commando one is supposed to have the same fiery animation as the golemtech chest and since there is so little of that fiery animation visible its really hard to turn into a helmet which is why bits and pieces can be blobby? am i right? not to sure?
