Q u o t e:

Some of the skin tones and hair colors share the same forms, so while there are 19 male tauren skin tones, 11 female tauren skin tones, and 8 night elf hair colors, the total number of form color combinations is very close amongst them.
Ah, OK, good to know-- so I was right the first time! /flex (Well, in a way I was. Not that the number of combinations will necessarily be five, though.)

Btw, the "Horde Favoritism" was typed with my tongue in my cheek.

I figured as much. I was going to quote an earlier post on the subject, but figured the sentiment in yours was short and sweet, whether or not it was in jest. ;)

Same stories have been played out for ages
I'm ready to be given the chance
For saying our side, our version or choice

Q u o t e:
Based on the current looks of tauren, I believe there are a total of 19 different skin choices for male tauren, and 11 skin choices for tauren females. Many similar tones will share the same bear and cat forms though. We're looking to release a break down of the tauren skin tones and night elf hair colors, as they correspond with the different cat and bear form color options, shortly after the new night elf cat form art is released.


Again, I beg you to consider the feedback received here and and have a good look at letting us simply pick what color forms we'd like. Not all players will match as well as you think, especially fr night elves where hair and skin-tone can differ drastically. There are a number of good threads on the matter both here and in the suggestion forum explaining the logic of it from pretty much every angle that I'm sure would be enlightening :\

To be honest, though the artwork is awesome for both Tauren and Night Elf forms, the Tauren forms have a more "finished" or polished feel to them. They feel complete to me.

The Night Elf forms seem unfinished.

I think it has to do with the tiny enhancements. The "branding" on the Night Elves really is not analogous to the Tauren's war paint, and Tauren seem to be slightly better accessorized. Even having ear cuffs on the Nelf bears (cf EFF) would have just added that little something-something.

But overall, still superbly done.

Q u o t e:


So Taurens get more variations then Night Elves. Night elves have 8 total hair styles for both male and female. Leaving us 11 behind the males and 3 behind the females.


Stop complaning, Taurens had a stupid bear and feral form for 4 years.

There's nothing wrong with the current bear form. It's the Cat form that's twenty five shades of ugly.

Hmm maybe they will surprise us and have furbished and improved the Tauren look somewhat.

Q u o t e:

Why do we have to maim our caster appearance to choose what we want one of our animal forms to look like?
And subsequently get stuck with whatever the other paired animal form looks like.


Since when is going from brown to reddish brown maiming anything? Unless it's blood I guess. Still, "maim" is hardly the right word when discussing color changing cows.

Feral since 2005.

As long as my black-furred tauren will end up as a black bear and a black lion, all is well.

Grimtotem pride! ;)

The regular flight form for taurens had night elf ears

I think i speak for a lot of us obsessive character looks kind of people?
Say we have full tier 7 and so we switched our hair to green to match it without helm.

Or

You like the way your tauren looks in party mode.(naked)

You know?

I hope we are not going to need to change our hair colors/skins to rainbows so we look ugly out of form but have the cool look we want for bear and cat?

I hope blizzard is not overlooking the players character looks vs the bear/cat we want.
Just be a lot easier if you did not have to sacrifice one or the other.
That is all i am saying.

p.s. The new forms are amazing. i tried figuring out what purple hair got me. wasn't until i saw the colored gems on the cat form necklace that i figured i'd give the placement a go.
GG skin creators. They look amazing.

Honestly, I won't mind the fact that I will have to change my skin color. You know why? Because I will always either be in form, or have gear so I can't see it anyways.

Also, I believe you mean GJ, not GG. GJ means good job, whereas GG means good game.

Viable is a BS term and for those who use it, I hope you get an easily curable STD.

Q u o t e:
I dont see the point in complaining in full gear you will never see your skin or hair as a nelf as tauren you will see hooves and face but thats it i dont see a need to qq about nigh nothing.

A lot of people (especially tauren) choose to not display their ugly helms, thus revealing fur, skin, hair, etc.


Q u o t e:
If Blizzard found a cure for cancer you would see a flood of posts saying they hate Blizz and are going to cancel their accounts because Blizz should have found a cure for AIDS instead.
