Noogums Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 (edited) I second the exoskeleton idea, especially if it looks like the armor from Elesium. (Though I've never seen the movie) One: Elysium armour doesn't fit Corpus style. Two: When I say exo-skeleton, I want you guys to be thinking of Aliens. THAT is an exo-skeleton. Anything smaller is just an exo-jumpsuit, and I won't hear anything to the contrary. Edited February 4, 2014 by Noogums Added picture because.. LOOK AT IT.

Loving it ^_^ But yeah, putting a Spectra on one hand, the claw on the other, and the Supra as a shoulder mounted weapon? Exactly what the Corpus need! -Jin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arch111 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Hmm moa exoskeleton with pilot inside? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzzykat Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 They should plan to, you see the crewmen too often. Corpus love technology so it would make sense for them to have power armor or more robots than moas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordofTibera Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I always thought a Tech wearing something like a WAR Loader from Borderlands 2 would be sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arch111 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 ok so started making a test of this idea. Something like this maby? Early days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jin_Lightning Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 ok so started making a test of this idea. Something like this maby? Early days. I think it needs to me more square-like. Corpus tech seems to follow that visual theme, minus the MOAs. Maybe combine that, and the power loader pic from a few posts up, and then I think you got it. ^_^ -Jin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noogums Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 ok so started making a test of this idea. Something like this maby? Early days. I'm not sure if I'm crazy about the legs. Personally, when I see the mech in my head, it's pretty bulky, goes along a similar design to their helmets, rather than the MOA's. I also advise you start up a thread in Fan Concepts, could get some better feedback from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arch111 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Yes, I figure Corpus would design a more square form. Hmm. Will continue to ponder this. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittyDarkling Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I think Corpus techs should be normal sized Corpus in an exoskeleton set of power armor. Currently the Corpus are for all intents and purposes, "Normal Human beings". so why are a few of them Giants? The answer to this of course is not a lore reason, but a gameplay one. They are significantly more powerful then the rest of the Corpus and need more visual "presence". And that's all fine and good however it feels like the giants in colored orange suits were just a placeholder (I hope) "Tech" seams like a title for the more technologically proficient among the Corpus. I really think they should be normal sized Corpus inside of a big, shiny set of robotic armor. Keep the Supra, but maybe change them to robotic health type? more health then shields? (because seriously Tech shields are a joke) and he can rely on the shield osprey for significant shields. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brimir Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) I've always assumed it is purely out of a balance perspective. You see it with Grineer as well - Bombards/Napalms/Heavy Gunners are significantly larger to signify the increased threat they present. Admittedly, it don't make much sense with the Corpus humans.

Jin_Lightning Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) well that was fast :o Yeah, it's a a really big thing right now, but I think it'l happen, just not anytime soon. Pretty much everyone says that Corpus Techs should be crewman in some kind of power armour, like from 'Aliens'. -Jin Edited February 23, 2014 by Jin_Lightning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[DE]Draice Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I'll pass the idea onto Mynki. I know that we have plans for more modular Corpus enemies down the track, so maybe the Corpus Tech will be revamped when we eventually get to those.

Brimir Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I'm not too fond of the "mech" idea though. Why would you go through the trouble to create power armour when you already have a reliable source of actual robotics? I'd say it would be more suitable to make them look more techy, scientists-like instead. Maybe some sort of futuristic labcoat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say it would be more suitable to make them look more techy, scientists-like instead. Maybe some sort of futuristic labcoat. Even then, they need technicians on the ground in the case of an EMP-related incident or when things go bad enough. The Corpus aren't very sure of the intricacies of the Orokin tech they're using, which explains all the research and reverse-engineering going on. I mean having a cadre of guys in Rig suits from Dead Space wouldn't be unreasonable. It's not like anyone is requesting Terminator Armor Corpus Techs. Though Invested vs Terminator Armored Techs is pretty much Space Hulk all over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
