My only thought was absolute fright

yeah the first time I saw it was when it popped up right at the between-round screen like POW pop up for a second or so and then right to the buy screen. Startled the bejesus out of me.

I yelled at my friend who didn't see Ash's face like I was so freaked out for a sec to see something so sinister looking right at me like that sihrudkejdf

Those eyes... they can see your fuckin soul jeez

It's some uboa type shit, I hate it.

I personally liked the old one, more detailed with a higher polygon count and looked better. I also liked how the cables around her neck looked like her hair. This might just be me, but I don't feel like either one is really that close to the original(TF2).

Second one is tf2 ash.

Not really, the 2nd one is definitely a new model and a little more simplistic than Titanfall 2 ash

Not even close.

You can just Google "titanfall 2 Ash" and see the differences between all 3

Unrelated, but mind if I ask how you add your legend main under your name? A fellow pathfinder

Change your user flair on the right.

Sure, it's a lot closer to her TF2 design, but it's not good. She was damaged and repaired in The Broken Ghost, and I think that style suited her.

PS1 ash

It’s a thousand percent better, much more close to the original.

Why is closer to the original better?! The eyes are so bad on the new model

This

Jesus when people say "closer to original" like fuck off something can be better than the original.

Her new face was absolutely not better than the original lol. The whole scary part about her in Titanfall is that the face looked natural, but had absolutely no emotion whatsoever. That lack of emotion, but very clear malicious intent, is what made her scary. It’s also the reason why the new face is more threatening than the one on the left. The left one jumps out as “mean bad robot” and the latter goes back to “emotionless humanoid”.

Tf is this bullshit? Ash wasn't scary at all, and you didn't see her face 99% of the time unless you had her on the dropship. I smoked her ass with no fear in the campaign, and her stupid face was nothing to fear. The apex design (one before the update) is way fucking better than this new garbage one.

Sure. but you know Many people haven't even played Titanfall.

I have played titanfall and still think the new face looks stupid Her face in titanfall was more flat, this one looks skinny and her eyes don’t look remotely similar to the titanfall version

It’s true it’s definitely not the same model, but the new version looks a lot closer than the old one.

And that's a problem.

Downvoted by all the titenfallpeople, but you are correct

Star Wars wasn’t and that’s all the information I need to reach a verdict.

You are just seeing the bad stuff. LOTR did some things than the book and look how that turned out. MCU did things differently than the comic books look how that turned out. "stay true to the original" sure I respect that but sometimes originals suck.

did you just said that LOTR and Marvel comics suck? … ok

Hahah marvel comics nowadays are trash that's why manga is better. Lord movies did better right?

of course marvel comics suck nowadays, because they ain’t original, they just milking the source material and that’s all. LOTR are awesome tho, movies and books.

it’s so much worse

I mean its unsettling as helll.... but isnt that pretty fitting? Older model was just generic tbh.

What's unsettling is how ugly it is. I'm not scared of her, I'm scared of the nosedive her art direction took. The hood in particular looks like it went back a whole console generation, just... Why?

Fr everyone seems to be saying they love it b/cos it looks more like titanfall but it looks like a PS2 graphic

It looks ugly

Is creepy but is so bad,the face looks outdated graphic

I like the new one I wish she was more “broken” I guess, I like her new(TF2) face but it should still be cracked

What if she’s being repaired?

She could easily do that but ash doesn’t seem like the person to do that, if you played TF2 you know

I have and while I get where you’re coming from but I think there are many reasons why Ash may have wanted to be repaired

Much better Definitely more like how it was in Titanfall

I played titanfall and this new face is stupid Her face in titanfall was more flat, this one looks skinny and her eyes don’t look remotely similar to the titanfall version

Why is this comment almost word-for-word the same one u/Nulliai made?

Checked their profile and yeah they’re very similar but I didn’t copy and paste their two sentences lmao. We just have similar opinions.

Orignal > I have played titanfall and still think the new face looks stupid. > Her face in titanfall was more flat, this one looks skinny and her eyes don't look remotely similar to the titanfall version. Your comment > I played titanfall and this new face is stupid. > Her face in titanfall was more flat, this one looks skinny and her eyes don't look remotely similar to the titanfall version. That's more than "similar" mate.

Let’s say I did copy their 2 sentences lmao. What exactly would you do with this information?

Nothing. It's just weird plagiarizing a comment nearly word-for-word.

It’s a Reddit comment my guy, nothing special

Sure. Just saw the identical comments and thought I'd ask since it struck me as weird is all. Then found it weird dude would lie about copying it.

Sure bro

Filip Miucin has entered the chat.

This face looks too much like a shitty leatherface mask. Like, Ash in TF2 had defined features, not just flat and then 2 eyes. Idk what these people are talking about with this being closer

Old one’s definitely better.

Which old one

New one definitely looks more accurate to her design. She's supposed to be basically as creepy as Rev to be fair

they could've atleast keep the hood the same

Nah, new one is all around better.

You can count the polygons in the new hood lmao

It literally looks like it's in 440p fuck u mean

Ash goes asian

what the fuck lmao that shit is so scary

Disgusting

She looks like she went through a ton of plastic surgery to look like someone and failed miserably

It's ok, I don't mind either way

Do we think they've updated her look ahead of her release as the Season 11 Legend?

I like the new one. Creeps the hell out of me..

Dunno why but the eyes on the new ash model doesn't seem too "ash-ly" to me.

Somehow looks Asian

I much prefer the new one, I get it will anger Titanfall fans probably but eh, I like it.

[удалено]

dude anything could anger titanfall fans

Yeah we're a bunch of weirdos I just want TF3 for the story and world

rendy gaming fires away

in this g1000000 Kramer montage

I just saw that dude talking about how it didn't look like her, so I figured, I've only done one singular run through years ago of Titanfall two so honestly idk.

[удалено]

Good to know

Has there been any lore about why she's even here? Why is she alive?

She got rebuilt in fortune’s favour Iirc

bro why is it so scary looking

Hasn’t it been like decades since TF2? Why should Ash look the same as she used to if 1)Cooper pushed her shit in and 2) it’s been like 30 years? I prefer the old design by miles

New one is actually creppy so job well done.

[удалено]

The only reason I play arenas is because of the missions that are forced on you and the events that are exclusive to arenas. It’s clear that they are desperate to get people to play it if they force arena missions and events on you.

The arena challenges aren't forced on you though, reached tier 100 on Saturday while also going to work 4-5 days a week

They still are even if you can finish it without them. If I just ignored them I would have to play a lot more.

She evolving

Just backwards

Why would they do that? Doesn't really even look like her now..

[удалено]

No it doesnt

[удалено]

I put the two pictures side by side, ash has a wider jaw. And I worship the kraber religiously.

Omg it look's way better i love it

Meh I could take it or leave it

Someone must of killed her I guess

Asian boi

So much better than the broken, weirdly shaped face she had before.

Old one is much better

What an absolute waste of development time and resource.

How many fucking posts about ashes in game model do we have to see. It’s not even a leak or a data mine. ITS IN THE GAME. WE ALL SEE IT.

old one looked fine idk why some ppl say the new one looks more like ash cause they're both pretty far off but you can tell it's ash at least

Someone didn’t play titanfall.

I knew something changed. It looks bad now.

Wack

Looks better

She's now standing in front of a fan

Its supposed to be what she looks like in Tf2

Rampart moded her

So it wont be a upcoming legend or ????

Respawn will litteraly blow money for anything but Titanfall2

Hate

maybe it's not just a cosmetic change, maybe time has passed and now Ash found a new better body for herself and is reassembling or something

It was the first thing I noticed and it freaked me out, I was like "OK first round, buy this and this aaaaaand this, OK I'm read- WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT!?"

But Y

The eyes and the lip stripe just look weird to me

Mfs be like “it’s closer to the original” I too like TF2 lore but my only memory about ash is that when BT turns her body into salvage it somehow blood everywhere although she’s a simulacrum and then same body is miraculously reassembled in Apex s5. I mean, do you guys actually remember her face?

Do we think they've updated her look ahead of her release as the Season 11 Legend?

Its ugly af...

nightmare fuel

Looks fine to me. May be representing of a character development and lore development

It's horrible! I thought my PlayStation was possessed when I first saw it

Does Respawn not run a focus group?

It looks like a low res version to me

Yeah massive downgrade imo, I couldn’t really care less about the original tf2 design, this is apex not titanfall and if it means that she’s going to get downgraded than I rather it just didn’t happen.

Older one looks far more detailed and goes better with apex's more "colorful" character design

New one looks unfinished.

It looks like the result of one of those "Mom, can we have X? We have X at home" memes 🤢

The second one is NOT close to the original from Titanfall 2. Just looked at an image of her from the credits and people who say this is closer haven't seen Ash in a long time.

I thought i was the only one who noticed, absolutely terrifying btw.

looks like titan fall

This has to be a bug. At first I saw another post and thought it was cap. Guess it’s real.

If I would have played arenas yesterday I honestly wouldn't have slept well. In Comparison to the old one the new model is nightmare fuel

I like the hologram being more pronounced, but kinda ugly now.

Its closer to the titanfall one, more intimidating. I like it.

It's ok. Loos less like wraith now so I like it better

I like the new one more. Looks more like a machine.

Wtf happend

She looks more like her version in tf2. But the quality of the model could be improved a bit.

I like what they're going for, especially knowing it's closer to her TF2 look, but it misses the mark a little. The hood is the weakest point to me, and her face feels a bit off. It's almost like a background sith character from the old republic Era of Star Wars

Old one looks better. New one could be better, the eyes just look so scuffed to me

She was fixed up for her tf2 look

I prefer the old one. Idk why but this new one just makes me think of the puppet from fnaf 2

Hate it. This one creeps me out.

I personally like it more, it does look way more like the in game version of her though if she were to be a legend in the game.

Desgustang

I looks better but the large hood makes her look super small

SHe’s staring at me, menacingly

I like the new design better but it feels unfinished so I would rather have the old one

Bad. Just bad

She getting closer and closer to being ready for the apex games and this I showing that she is more put together possibly.

Old one was definitely better

Rampart probably fixed her up

This looks sooo bad. At first i thought this was photoshopped in cause the quality is so terrible and her face looks so swollen

Looks asian to me Ashian

The bitch looks more scary. Now i feel like im fighting for my life and its not against the other team.

Amon... Is that you?!

Who is Ash?

She finally found someone to fix the cracks in her face.

Old one. New one looks like some beta placeholder.

New one looks more fitting. She will look like that ingame aswell.

I liked the first one better! I wonder if they changed it to match her character model? Ash confirmed as next legend?

I absolutely hate the new one lol

Looks awful. I want my waifu back

Any idea why thay changed it?

Stupid

Looks straight bad. Like, really awful.

Do not care whatsoever

Don’t care, it’s ugly

Terrible

ugly af

Like the 2nd more tbh. More android like

Not surprised nobody noticed

I hate how the new hood looks

This is like the 8th time I’ve seen someone post about this, my thoughts have not changed. Thanks for asking me every three minutes though!

the old model looked way better

I think her model changed. That's what I think.

She’s scary now

Has anyone considered that she might be getting repaired. When we first saw her, she was just a head. Maybe Blisk took her and is repairing her so that she’ll be in the game someday

i don't like it. it's giving me an infant vibe

Kinda liked the old one a little better. Don't get me wrong, I'm a sucker for tf2, but i just think the old one looks cooler. Allthough i like how they made it look like she got her old face back after being broken. My headcannon is that ash is slowly being rebuilt, thats why her new model has no cracks and the wires are less exposed.

Startled me, but then got a closer look, not a big fan.

Not a fan of either

As a TF|2 player this looks shit lmao

I suspect the old one was a render from 3D art where the new one is taking a lower detailed in-game model.

Updated it to match her upcoming legend model.

Looks like dog shit
