Why are the class models so boring now?

[Zero]

No more unique models for Fencer and Wing Diver? They're all just generic soldier man now? I want my Dragoon Wing Divers and Power Armor Fencers!

[AliceTheGorgon]

Looks like there's 4 different outfits per class, and only some of them are generic solider looking ones. The store screenshots just don't seem to include the cool ones for some reason.

Sadly, the 4.1 wing diver model doesn't seem to be included, which is a shame. But some of the outfits are still pretty cool.

Found a video going over all the outfits:

Outfit timestamps:

Wing diver (2 and 4 are fairly nice):
2:32: semi-realistic
3:17: futuristic gundam-y
5:10: prototype-ish skydiving suit
5:44: near-future stylish

Fencer:
10:48: semi-realistic exoskeleton
11:16: Full heavy armor, lite futuristic vibes
12:29: Construction exoskeleton vibes
13:17: Heavy armor, semi-realistic

[Zero]

I mean, that's fine and all, but it still doesn't include the Dragoon armor (like you said) and the sleek yet bulky Power Armor Fencer...

probebly to avoid spoilers cause you change outfits based on the mission.

All I heard is "waaa I just want the stuff I like and the rest is ♥♥♥♥"
You want unique model,you get them,but boohoo it ain't the one I want
Wait for a mod.
5 have edf 4 armors as a mod cause they use the same engine,so 6 will be able to use 4 and 5 armors as a mod,the guy who ported them all already said he'll do it for the new ones

Good to know - I played through 5 without knowing I could get the Wing Diver armor from 4.1.

I might actually look into this mod once it comes out for EDF6 :D

Wait, wouldn't that mean the player can't pick which one to use then, if it's based on the mission they're playing? That sounds, not great.

Its like EDF5. You can choose which one after you beat the final boss for the first time. -_-

I really miss the Wing Diver's plot window from 4.1.

With a catch. I'm playing the Asian English release on PS and it doesn't seem to save per class. It's all or nothing. So if you set one class to stay with the futuristic look, they all do. I'd prefer my Air Raider be the civilian, but it doesn't seem to allow different ones for different classes. I swear there's always some little thing that ends up broke. I know one of the versions of EDF5 wasn't keeping my armor set where I set it. It just kept going up from there instead of locking.

Can you customize the colors of the outfits or not?

Thats not as big of a deal as you are making it.

Can you change the outfits at-will, or is it still dependent on which mission you're playing?
