Dear, Bioware staff

I have to ask this question and I mean no ill will by it. I just want an honest answer.  Why put cerberus armors in the dlc knowing full well that people don't like it?  Is it out of spite or is it something else? Please give an honest and thoughtful response. Thank you.

I can think of one good reason. Because some people in the fanbase, like myself, still really like Cerberus.

And besides, even if every single person who played Mass Effect hated Cerberus, they still look freaking cool.

Yeah I know what you mean. I do think Kai Leng is cool looking. I am bit of Kai Leng Fanboy. And i keeping heard about a book Mass Effect Deception, but I can't remember the life of me what is it. Or it is so bad It makes me forget it other than the title.

I just feel awkward trying to convince everyone in the game that I'm no longer with Cerberus while wearing the Cerberus shade armor.

 I understand and accept why I couldn't ally with Cerberus in ME3. They were indoctrinated.

However, I hate the vibe you get that they were always evil and that Shepard hated working for them, even if you express interest in joining them completely in ME2.

I support Cerberus, and I support their goals. They are a watchdog group for humanity at their core, doing the things the alliance never would or could do. I'm pro-human and I believe Cerberus is out to confront the entities out there that would harm humanity and the galaxy at large. 

The big lie they try to sell you is that pro-human = anti-alien. That's not the case. While there are xenophobes in Cerberus no doubt, they are also in the alliance as well. There are xenophobes in other races. Many of their experiments do cross the line, and there are a *lot* of questionable personalities that TIM put in charge of certain cells. But they are still a group with a goal worth believing in.

I believe that had they not been indoctrinated, they would have been Shepard's most useful ally's against the Reapers.

 I don't understand why they do this either, but some talented people have provided replacement textures for these armour sets (to be used with texmod), you should go check them out here: http://social.biowar...index/9735492/1
After applying some of these, the Ajax armour for example, is the best looking armour set in the series (atleast for me) with N7 and Spectre logos, it is very fitting :-)

Right, which is why you wear Darkspawn armour in DA and geth parts in ME1...

And this is why there is cerebus armor in the game.  Because OP, not everyone is you, with your likes and dislikes.  So, when you say 'no one likes cerebus', what you should have said is  '*I* personally don't like Cerebus..."   I dunno why, in this day and age, so many people STILL don't understand that just because they don't like something, everyone agrees with them.

Of course, I do agree with the OP.  I don't like them.  I mean, these are the same folks who got my entire squad killed on Akuze to study Thrasher Maws, the same folks who let the colonists on Zhu's hope get infected by the Thorian, and used samples from it to enslave other humans in the 'name' of science.  They were 'pro-human' and would do anything to make sure humans were on top....including kill and change humans.  In the end (and I think this may have even happened before indoctrination fully took hold) they were snatching colonists and converting them into soldier drones against their will to 'promote' humanity.  That's something I'd fight against, and I'm glad Bioware ensured that Shep would do so as well.

Having the Ajax armor be painted with Cerberus' colors and logo never made much sense. The Ajax armor should have either been a black N7 variant, painted in standard Alliance blue, or in Spectre colors. Any of those would have made sense for Shepard. Cerberus armor? Not so much.

I love the look of the Assault Armor, just love it. But I hate trying to convince people that I've left Cerberus when I'm wearing their armor. Wish I could take the suit and paint it Alliance Blue.

I almost think that it's their inside joke or something. Also the annoying part is that squad mates have basically the same armour but better texture. for example it's fairly simple process to just port Kaidan's version for Shepard because the model is basically the same.

I wonder why they did not give couple texture options...

It is a minor quibble I have with the game and DLC armors. An N7 texture already exists for the new armor provided in the Citadel DLC. I was a bit surprised we got yet another Cerberus armor, given the complaints on the forums. They clearly addressed many other, more important complaints via this DLC.

Cerberus or not, the new armor is one of my favorites in the game. It was a nice addition to the DLC.

Yeah. Cerberus really does have some cool-looking armor sets, while the Alliance seems to still be using the old, crappy armor we used back in ME1 (not counting the kinda/sorta non-cannon N7 Human kits in the MP).

In my opinion the Phantom-armor you get from Armax is one of the best additions ever. It's one of my favorite armors right now. I just like the design of all the Cerberus troopers, especially the standard stormtroopers and the phantoms. Don't know what's wrong with it. Yeah, maybe some more different armors and weapons... But I can't complain about it, I got what I wanted which i never expected to be in.

Cerberus makes all the best gear. The Harrier is the best assault rife in the game and the DLC armor offers better damage and recharge bonuses than any other armor set.

I definitely agree. A reskin would have been nice. It's awkward shouting at TIM while wearing Cerbie armor.

For my head canon I like to think Shepard sometimes wears it because they make the best gear that is designed just for humans.

I been asking constantly for new armor and skins but they ignore us and listen to those crsppy Cerberus Brats. I hate Cerberus, we had two games with them. They should of just have us other armor and skins!!!
