Female character packs!

[- ɴeedy -]

I know there is no way I am the only female gamer playing this game, and loving it. Please, do you ever plan on coming out with female character packs????

This feels like bait.
Like I say "Bonnie and Clover"
and you say "Big Macs and Coke"

[Heroic Sheperd]

I'll take the bait

Clover, Bonnie, and Sydney

2 paid, 1 free. Have fun

laughing it's not bait! :P It's a serious inquiry. I use 'Bonnie' but it's just basic character. I would like to have more options.

Am I missing something? Goes back to the DLC's and looks for clover and sydney lol

In that case Clover comes with a pretty great stealth perk deck.
And Sydney has a really good perk deck with a fun gun.

So there are 3 completly different characters to pick from

Okay, Sydney looks like a male to me. Though I Just saw Clovers, No idea how I over looked that. Opps. Still, perhaps a few more options one day.

Seriously how long have you even been playing? The reason this seems like bait is that Sydney is one of the newest Heisters, and has been hyped up since Xmas last year, and Clover was the first paid DLC Heister available.

I literally just started just started playing this game a couple days ago. So, I should have looked a little closer, I was browsing the character packs, completely over looked Clover, and unfortunatly I assumed by the structure of Sydney that it was a male, highly possible as it's a universal name. My mistake, and sorry. Though thank you for calling me out and helping me realize I need to do a little better at researching before spilling out a comment.

That's understandable then, Overkill has been really good about avoiding the stereotypical female game character, and at times like with Sydney she may seem not overly feminine as many other games would accentuate.

There's already Bonnie, Clover, and my personal favorite Sydney, but I do feel like more free female heisted would be nice

well to be fair clover is just a screeching machine, sydney looks like a chicken with nails on a chalkbaord for a voice, and bonnie is kinda decent but everyone hates her because of her size

Bonnie is great. Her voice is characterized plenty without her having to scream at an octive that reaches the sky. Sydney is just kinda obnoxious all around, though her safe has cool stuff. And Clover is alright over all. Her voice is pretty grating during loud, but that's only bad if the person using them is speaking alot, like trying to get people to surrender, or using alot of FAKs.

A 4th female would allow for an all female heist, and it would be another chance for them to make one that wasn't handcrafted to be annoying. The other main issue with Sydney, is that she's not portrayed by anyone real. We know who her voice is, but her aesthetic is completely made up, whereas all heisters except Jacket are portrayed by a real life model. The key to finding a good female character, would be picking out a real life person who would do the body and voice well.

Not just. Her accent and delivery are terrible, even worse than the screechers IMO. I know the actress is supposed to be Scottish but there's no way in hell she actually talks like that. It feels forced.

Do you really think a voice actor would speak normally like a stereotypical scottish person?
