So.. if they're just elaborate photoshops, instead of promotional renders, you should be able to find source images for all the composite parts, right? Like, there should be a render of Kasumi in that exact pose and lighting, and a render of a Nemesis with her head at the same angle, right? And you should be able to show which parts of the weapons come from which other weapons (particularly those distinctive shields on the machinegun).

A photoshop that seamless is certainly possible, but headswaps and texture changes like the images have would be easier to do in a 3D modeling suite, unless there's source images that already closely match the poses, lighting, etc. Liquify is a powerful tool, but it does have limits.

Yes. Those are the things I'm trying to find.

Hahaha, this leak was done in writing almost a month ago along with the Extended cut leak. The same source put a finger on both rebellion and resurgence and now that we have images it's less credible?

What? No, all three major leaks that have been out were not created by the same person. Not even.

Yes. Yes they were.

No. The 'Earth DLC Leak' was provided by Gibbed before it was anyone else. And all he gave was the class descriptions. NOT PICTURES.

he posts the pictures later in the thread yo.

Cool story bro.

Can we close this thread now? It's been confirmed perfectly two times already that a) Bioware leaks DLC information before release, and hints towards said DLC's content can be found within the game files before release.

Most of the guns you guys are referring to aren't rehashes by coincidence. Look at their descriptions.
The Paladin IS a modified Carnifex
The Harrier IS a modified Mattock
Wraith --> Eviscerator
BW---> Widow
Eagle ---> Phalanx
Etc.. 

You're debunking yourself, dude. The new weapons aren't rehashes by coincidence either. How much you want to bet the description of the Acolyte Pistol will mention that it's based on the Disciple design? I'm pretty sure Bioware uses 3D models for their weapon pictures because, believe it or not, it's much easier to just create new models using 3D building blocks than it is to photoshop a 2D static image (this also helps with maintaining fidelity when rendering the weapons in-game). Compare the wraith and the eviscerator

http://i46.tinypic.com/2dtol74.png

Notice how the angle of the weapon is slightly off between the two pictures? That's because the artist who rendered the weapons repositioned them at different degrees after he changed the textures. You can't do that with photoshop. That's why there are slight variations between the barrel of the piranha and the saber.

Note the similar variation in angle. To achieve that effect in photoshop with that much fidelity you would need to render the entire weapon from scratch, not just "derp over it" with the blur tool.

Your rationalization has too much working against it. For any of this to hold water you would have to prove the guns were photoshopped (which they aren't, as I've just demonstrated), that Gibbed is unreliable (which he isn't, he has been doing this sort of thing for like a decade and he knows what he's doing), and don't forget, you need to support your original intent of the argument which is to "make sure that your expectations get lowered before the 17th, so as to lay off some of the inevitable rage that will end up on the forums."

Your theory doesn't prevent rage, it creates new rage. Besides, forum rage is going to happen one way or the other because it's BSN and it's horrible. You're not saving anybody.

Look forward to seeing it! Heck, I'll help even. Already looking for the Kai Leng pose, since that looks like the easiest headswap, but I'm not finding it. Having a hard time finding any shots of Kasumi posed like that too, and finding both with the same lighting scheme.. Closest match I'm finding is the promotional art for the Terminus armor, but the angle's off, lighting's different, and I know there's no render of it holding a Phaeston like that. Looks more like a render of the game model.

Some of the poses match up pretty much exactly with many of the stock in-game poses, but full body shots with those poses, in that lighting.. much harder to find.

If it's a hoax, the most likely explanation for the the poses would be pulling meshes from the game files and posing them in 3DS Max or even Gary's Mod.. but the lighting, rendering and camera angles are consistant with Bioware's promotional material. If this is a hoax, it's a lot of work for one.


Anyway: In the new spirit of the thread

I remember a little while ago I thought vorcha sentinel sounded stupid.

Yeah, well, if it sounds stupid, do not discount it.

[Ledgend1221]

Every other time we had visual evidence of new DLC content, it turned out to be true.
This one will be the same.
I mean look at the drell, Thane clones all of them.
