If you haven't looked at the new Skulls, please do.

I think they are perfect. The hair is enough for me to stop and fireball them to the face.
If you take away the punk hair and Skull masks and put them in all black, they essentially look like the Nihilists from Big Lebowski.
Which is great.
I always thought of the club hair as Euro Rocker Hair lol (which normally never looks good on anyone :P). I love their new look!
On one hand, I see enough of that hairstyle to make me cringe, especially around RP heavy areas.
On the other hand, I'd love to smack the everlove out of those wearing the do.
In the end it balances out.

yeah for all the people whining their new look isn't dirty enough that hair looks plenty grungy to me. |

So the summation of the thread is: The New Skulls look pretty good/great. The pocket D hair is still pretty bad.
So, thread failed?

I feel like they're gangers, they aren't really suppose to look "good." Also, they're a level 5-10 enemy, I don't want Paragon to spend a lot of time on them, nor do I think Paragon wants either.

And the skulls have more of an attitude that says "we'll take anyone as long as they're angry and willing to cut someone." So gay, straight, or plastic blow-up dolls, it's all good as long as you want to *stab*.
You know, Lawful Evil vs. Chaotic Evil.

If they're gonna make a third of their issue's story content centered around this one specific group, I hope they take as much time as they need to get the group right.|

That said, like I and everyone else said earlier, New Skulls are good and the only problem's the hair.

Thanks for the corrections. I had totally forgotten about the Atlas Park Skulls. And suppose I head to Steal Canyon and the Faultline pretty quickly, so I personally am not used to seeing them past level 10 or so.|

Posted this when I wasn't thinking clearly.
My guides:Dark Melee/Dark Armor/Soul Mastery, Illusion Control/Kinetics/Primal Forces Mastery, Electric Armor
"Dark Armor is a complete waste as a tanking set."
I will be very upset if they redo gravediggers and they still use bats and not shovels
USE SHOVELS,YOU ARE DIGGERS
and yes, the hair looks stupid. Which seems perfectly reasonable for a street gang. I often find that street gangs look stupid. If they could have their pants falling down it would be even more realistic

Now that the devs have nearly cleared their list of things to do with i24, maybe afterward they can give us a "grunge" costume set - for free - featuring jeans with holes in the knees, denim jackets, sleeveless denim jackets, and jacket models that can take a symbol on the back, so the Skulls, Hellions, and Lost can be graphically updated and yet restored to their former grungy glory.

I may or may not be thinking clearly, anyways. As others have pointed out there IS a feedback thread in the beta forums, so this thread's a bit of a moot point as it is.

Eh, most are just saying that their opinion is not the same as your opinion. There may be a few saying that your opinion is actually wrong, but there's people like that in virtually every thread ever.|

For what it's worth i think you're perfectly entitled to your opinion, but with the exception of using the Doofus and Club hairstyles i think the revamp is pretty well done. So we have different opinions of the revamp. You don't like it, and i think it's an overall improvement with a few caveats. Works for me.

There is nothing wrong with having an opinion. It's just that the majority of people here seem to DISAGREE with it. This happens sometimes.

That hair... it looks almost emo....
Wait! The evil influence of the underworld... the new hairstyles... the girlfriends who are suddenly now full-fledged members almost as though they were realizing they USED to be more than they are now...
Emo-Tep.... Emo-Tep.... Emo-Tep....
My mind wanders so often you've probably seen its picture on milk cartons. - Me... the first person version of the third person Steelclaw
You can occasionally get away with it, but it usually looks pretty crummy.
Anyway, I don't have any issue with the Skulls revamp, nor with adding female members to the gang.
