Unfortunately clipping will always be an issue to to differing sizes in armor (shoulderpads for example). Comment by Kezaren Lovely new models, yet the armor pieces still go into their bodies :\/\r

Nah, I don't think it has to be an issue. They have the animations, so when they're making some new shoulder pieces or whatever, they can see exactly how much clipping there is. They model the shoulder pieces for the Human male or whichever, then scale them and position them on each separate race and gender combination they have. I feel that before they say they're finished, they should run some animations first to check for clipping, and then change it if there is any because clipping looks really bad to me. But Blizzard doesn't mind clipping, so they don't take care to avoid it. They prefer to have the most absurdly large shoulder pieces in the world, so even if there's a ton of clipping, it's all worth it in their eyes. Comment by PolackTheDude there is always going to be a whiner no matter what lol.. Comment by markusfh For the first time in forever (8) I realy am thinking about making a female orc, they look extremely cool with the new models, cant wait for the troll models tho! Comment by darkside1311 I like all what they have done but love the Female Gnome, she remind me of a pissed off Rapunzel :) Comment by darkside1311 For the first time in forever (8) I realy am thinking about making a female orc, they look extremely cool with the new models, cant wait for the troll models tho!\r

Exactly, it is a choice they made, and they know it. It comes down to this. Do you drastically reduce the artistic freedom that the artists have when designing new gear in order to prevent clipping in a handful of rarely used or rapid animations?\r
\r
They chose from the beginning to have over-the-top shoulders and weapons and I doubt they will ever change that. It is an artistic choice that has been consistent throughout the last 9 years.\r
\r
Try AOC sometime. they have more realistic graphics.. all your gear basically lookes like brown, tan or grey rags. Comment by ultragod Where's the troll love? ... Actually, nevermind. That just sounds gross. Comment by wmarczak Just noticed...gnomes have five toes but only three fingers and a thumb? Comment by MrVolare Finally, folks run like they actually have a purpose. I am dying to see the Trolls. If Vol'jin is to be looked to as an example ('course he is, mon!) they should be awesome Comment by breebee Why do the gnomes have four fingers on each hand and five toes on each hand? Comment by regma Liking those expressions. I think the Tauren's beg is funny and cool. Comment by adam1909 Why do the gnomes have four fingers on each hand and five toes on each hand?\r
\r
Toes on hands? What is the world coming to? :-P Comment by Kompae Kill me! I'm Horde and I love the new female gnome! Comment by SimothDrake Wrong, they have two seperate bones for each shoulder to attach to that scaling them makes the shoulders change size, they're the SAME model of shoulders for EVERY race just different rotation and scale. Helm does have a different model though (Ment to do this at Kazaren ><) Comment by alvuh do the new models seem smaller to anyone else? Comment by lookdh Hope troll models will be shown before expansion, tauren model looks so strong. Comment by catscratcher Noooooooo, still plate tshirts ! All plate armor should look like Arthas' or Varian's. I guess its gonna take another 10 years to do real Plate armor :( Comment by Conser With the way the gnomes' new expressions and facial features are, it reminds me a lot of disney characters.
