lol heres an idea, maybe if Assassins used ranger models maybe we all be happier.
I will be rolling a male assassin personally, but its just me and had nothing to do with how the model looks but more importantly that i get to use Runes and the primary attribute Critical Strike in my builds.....which many seemed to have forgotten about in the many pages of this thread
But of course no one likes playing ugly toons........dont quote me on that since the recent apperance of several disturbing threads gave me second thoughs.

The armor for the assassin in the preview sucked, I hope thats like the starter one or something.

it needs thikening caps yes

I like my Assassin fine the way she is. I would've liked to buy a full set of 1.5k armor before the preview ended, but other than that...
I love her so much that she's still taking up a character slot!

Flesh just gets in the way of hiding, and stuff like big muscles and breasts give away what gender they are.. not helpful to the assassin either.
Just shows they're committed to their cause. Good for him/her or shim or whatever.

If we're going to go by realism, they don't need a better ability to hide as much as tey do fighting, and both the skeletal frames and the tight clothes are very, VERY bad for fighting. Lean does make you faster, but skeletal makes you too weak to hurt anyone, or take a hit without literally breaking.

dont even bring realism into here 
Female warriors dont have much bulk either

The only problem I have with female assassins is the hair styles. There is only about 1 or 2 that I remember that arent butch. But I'm not gonna make a huge deal about it. I'll be playing a female assassin the first day.

I don't think anyone's mentioned this but the assassin from the rendered wallpaper looks ALOT like Nina Williams 
:
now that's how assassins should look - well maybe the Tyrian variants
d/f+3,2, ss+1~b~u/f+4, 1, ff+1+2

Numa Pompilius
That's a Rogue, IMO, and that armor... Well...
The assassin is based on the body shape of a chinese acrobat. They are small, very young, skinny, overtrained, deffed.
It's not the picture of health, but it's not really anorexia either.

Who the hell cares about ass and breast size?
THEY ARE FREAKING VIDEO GAME CHARACTERS!!! They are pixelated for Christ's sakes!
Its not like the video game females are real and its not like you can have them in real life.
They are made to look sexy so that all of the video game nerds can wank to them while playing the freaking game!
Good God.
The human race is devolving.

And since you brung it up... There is no such thing as devolving. There is no direction to evolution, hence, no devolution, because there are no arbitrary concepts of "upwards" or "downwards" tendency to the matter.

Actually, I am far from being insecure. And, I myself, am very thin with big breasts (C to D range cup size). Not to mention I am a blonde. www.myspace.com/neurotransmitter (proof.
) Oh yes, and not to mention I am currently sexually active and my boyfriend says I am damn good at it. Thank you.I just find it ridiculous that people actually care that a video game character should have big breasts and be very thin. I find that kind of insulting toward the more obese members.
Perhaps someone of a far more higher intelligence level could have an intelligent debate about it with me. Immature debates are just plain...well, immature.

you will find thru your life that man are dirty, lustful slugs regardless of age and amount of sex they had last night. I suggest you deal with it or lock yourself behind monastery walls.

This is not a pointless debate. This thread is about satisfying the community on inconsistencies of Anet's designs.
They show you something on the trailer. Then you play something completely different. Being pissed about it is not being immature, its justified. I am defending this thread, even though i LOVE how the Sins look in game, because the gaming community as a whole is NOT happy with this character deception.
.neuronster.
I agree. But people had to turn it into a perverted debate.
But yes, many things are like that; you see something but when you get it, its nothing like what you saw. So, you get disappointed. Just like when you were a child and you would see a toy on TV that you just had to have because it was big and looked really fun. But when you got it, it sucked. Ira Blinks
what so perverted about wanting to see a better boobies or better shape in general?
.neuronster.
Perhaps "perverted" wasn't the correct word. Ah well.

I just about fell out of my chair laghing at the thought of you not playing a certain class because of its LOOKS. I dont choose a class on looks, THEN purpose, but then again - tons of guys play as chicks.
.neuronster.
LOL. XD
I heard that some people don't want to be the male assassins because they look "gay". XD Perhaps its the mid-drift shirts. :P Ira Blinks
I dont want to play male ele, mesmer and ritualist for the same reason. Even male necro is rather gothic on the edge of gay.
.neuronster.
Indeed. However, I can't play as a male anyway. I feel weird. I end up deleting him and making him a female. :P
VampiricuS
The only thing I find funny about the assassin (male one at least) is that when he runs, he reminds me of Commander Riker with that one shoulder higher up than the other. I chuckle every time.
Personally, i dont play as a transgender. Its not that I dont like looking at the female gender, I just tend to play what gender I am in RL. There are plenty of other female (characters) to gaze upon, but you will never catch me receiving a lapdance from one, you never know who's really giving it to ya!, lol at any rate, as far as game characters go, transfering concept art to pixels is far from perfect, and example is HERE this is an image of me after slight photoshop work (ears and nails , etc) for Bloodlines, and let me tell you, the translation to the Game looks NOTHING at all like that. Maybe with different armor, "she" may fill in a bit. Cjlr

I was originally inclined to apologize; my original response was knee-jerk and I probably should have read back a ways to establish some context. Reading through, though, it became clear that you were every bit in the same mindset as myself. It is fairly obvious now that you don't fit my stereotype for most of the types of folks who argue this kind of issue. But then, we must take into account that magical thing, the internet. Revolutionary communications tool? Breakthrough entertainment medium? Yeah, sure, but it's also a somewhat tenuous means of discourse, as any personal claims by either party must be taken on faith that they actually represent or even resemble the truth.As for personal insult... If you can decry mine (which I have already said I somewhat regretted) whilst throwing out your own, you really are not in the right to speak of it. Perhaps someone of a far more higher intelligence level could indeed have an intelligent debate. But as a rule (thoughy by no means without exception) those who say things like "far more higher level" are not of the most intelligent percentile. You see? Insinuations and slander are easy and fun .

The gender I play depends on the "prettiness" of the class armor.
Example, I think Female monk armors are ugly, so I have a male monk. Yet, I think female ranger and assassin armors in Factions are just stunning, so I will have a female ranger and a female assassin when it comes out. Cosmetics

Ah. Indeed. And I came on a bit too strong. Then again, I had just woken up and had a bad headache. That can really get me to be unlike myself. I apologize.And what about "far more higher level"? XD I've heard intelligent people use that saying before. :P Insinuations and slander are much easier to do online. I bet half the people who do it would be too scared to do it in person. XP

And, as far as that picture goes, that is really awesome. I love how it looks animated and such. Very nice Photoshop work.

Personally when i saw the Female assassins in FPE i cheered! the assassins looked like assassins, not eles playing dressup. and when i saw the running style i nearly wet myself, maybe its just cause im a big Ninja fanatic but it is just so cool the way they move, all creepy like, with the daggers.
I really dont undertand people saying " im worried about her health" Shes not real! and she looks fitter than most girls i know! come on people get it together.
