Hating on Old Models...

I'd just like to throw in my 2 cents and say that the medic is wonderful as is! The last thing I want is for him to look anything like the new models--- new models suck extra.

TFC is all about the clean, good ole' boy GI Joe factor.

TFC/FF should _not_ be filled with "Matrix-esque 'high speed' models, with gas masks, laser eyes, spikes on their shoulders, and tubes sticking out at random places, catering to unimaginative teens who listen to Korn/Limp Bizcuit, with handles like "ShadowLord-IceLogic."

I bawled like a baby when the tfc new models were released back in the day, before I learned that they were optional.

You're on the right track as is FF, don't be led astray by uninspired suggestions!

Thats a very broad generalization. The musical taste of people doesn't have anything to do with TFC having new models. Not to mention for most of TFC's life the general public consisted of those "unimaginative teens" who kept the game alive.

A. Generalization are useful and economic indications of broad patterns, and, keeping in mind their limitations, I'm proud to make them.

B. History has shown that unimaginative people have had little problem enjoying works of the imaginative, from the groundlings in The Globe to CS drones playing TFC. They don't _create_ the objects of their entertainment however, and---as is my point---they should be kept from doing so.

C. As for the relevancy of musical taste, it's minimal, but real nonetheless. Would you want rap-influenced individuals suggesting (and, god forbid, being listened to) that classes say "Yo nurse, shoot me wit' some morphene!"

This is an exaggeration of course, but proves my point well enough. In the same way that rap/African American slang is inappropriate to this game, so too is any angst-ridden, wannabe byronic hero, post-modern, "I did it all for the nookie" MTV-brainwashed trash. (Like the exaggerated examples I gave, and their more frequent-albeit-toned-down variants.)

Enough generalizations for you? =)

You are very ignorant and I'll leave it at that.
