Bald Women
Why?

I'd leave it at that but it would feel like bait. Getting a balding chick (not shaved, hair loss) makes me feel icky. It's not even just "I don't like this hairstyle". It's more "god that poor woman, what happened to her?". That and the abysmal hair options in the game has me questioning whoever was in charge there.

based on the picture you posted this is cleary a fasion statement. since the top of her head has a dense shadow in contrast to her forehead, she just shaved it and left the sides a bit longer. reverse mohawk so to speak.

The style of hair (which to be fair you can change) is literally called "Balding".

It's critically important in strategy and tactics games that we have plenty of hair options.

Kill those ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bugs with fashion and style!

I need a signature that says "yet another moronic thread" so I can stop retyping it. This forum is amazing.

Yes you can choose to make a woman balding, you can also give women all kinds of facial hair. If you dont want to.....dont. Though it too bad there are really only 2 decent hairstyles for women.

More options would be more fun to try to make people look a but more like people i know . just makes the game a bit more fun. Though after 2 missions, the game is incredibly fun.

You could just stop replying to them? Also, XCOM/2 had plenty of decent options and this game is undoubtedly going to be compared to it so shipping with random characters that get spawned in as balding women and then really only have 2-3 female haircuts out of like 20+ seems lackluster

Survivors are randomly generated, I got two dudes in that mission. You can also change their hairstyle

I kinda agree. Women in gear of war are not..beautiful. I mean they look alright for a marine tho. The game tries to portray the story to be as manly as possible, so women are kind of left out.

You do know that women can go bald in real life, right?

You do know that these characters don't exist in real life right?

Where are the fat, ugly, pudgy or stocky women/men? Hell some women in real life have facial hair. Doesn't mean that it's the ideal randomly generated character. "Hey yeah this Gear is a late 40's balding fat woman with muton chops.". Exciting. It represents reality greatly. Now, let me get my chainsaw gun out and cut a guy in half while his 4 friends just chill and watch after they just shot me 6 times.

Why would fat or pudgy men or women be in combat? They wouldn't last five seconds in the Gears world; wouldn't have the stamina to keep up
