Bioware admits their armor sets are crap

From official forums:

Hey everyone, thank you to everyone who took the time to leave feedback. The development team are very aware of everyone's thoughts and we've particularly appreciated constructive comments which will always give us a better idea about how to change things in the game.

Wholesale changes to the armor sets in Game Update 1.2 are not possible at this time. Creating new armor sets is a process with a long lead time, so changes cannot be made quickly. However, we're listening to your feedback and that will influence things going forward. We would also urge you to look at the armor sets in-game. With the new color matching options available in Game Update 1.2 and higher resolution textures, some of you might be more impressed by armor sets in-game.

With that said, we'd like to make this discussion a bit more constructive moving forward. We understand some of you aren't fans of the armor sets as shown; that's fine, and we've heard you loud and clear. We've also heard the calls to make armor more 'iconic' and 'more Star Wars like' - and thanks to those of you who provided reference to your favorite armor styles.

We'd like to see more of that, so feel free to provide more constructive comments on what you feel your end game armor styles should look like for your class in The Old Republic.

IT IZ DEZZZIGNED AZZZ INTENDED!!!

Honestly though I rather expected the raid gear to be the "iconic" cloaked Sith armor and not get the "iconic" cloaks at level 45ish. Then again, everyone after 45 "could" wear their "iconic" armor if (and only if) the operations loot had the 1.2 updates to armor extraction.

A few posts on the official forms were perfect. Instead of digging them up and quoting them, i'll do my best to paraphrase:

"The Emperor had a simplistic robe that he wore. It was elegant and menacing all at once. The new Inquisitor design looks like all the hangers got stuck to the robe when taking it out of the closet"

"You need to lock the art department in a room and make them WATCH Star Wars. They haven't seen the films, have they?"
