    A Dev stated that it's being worked on.

    It has also been being worked on for a while if you count Cory's awesome concept art. I have a female marine from the Deluxe Edition wallpapers on my left monitor, it's badass.

    Both of them are the same though, the helmet retracts cause it is hot and when not in combat the idea behind that design was to cool you down. So apparently the armour is attached to the marine >_>

    Well, if Hugh's PAX East experience is any indication you can't pee the entire time you wear it. That's gotta be awkward.

    But yeah to the best of my knowledge it's still planned at some point.

    I wonder if they'll have smaller hitboxes then everyone will go fem marine. Since there are a very small number of females who play this game, it is nice of UWE to make a model for them.

    From the look of the concept art, great care would be taken to ensure similar build and height, which is all that matters from the alien's perspective anyways.

    Yeah, great, I already see all 13-something nerds all picking female models, and typing would-be seductive messages to chat. Welcome to the world of modern MMORPG. So far, I have met two actual women playing NS2 (at least the voice sounded female).

    I don't like the idea at all. Women do not fight among the frontline infantry for a reason.

    And what reason is that? Considering that women are on the frontlines all over the world, including the US army.
    Besides, its just a video game. Options in games are awesome.
    People don't seem to complain about fantasy mmorpg female characters, or strong female protagonists like Alyx Vance or Lara Croft.
    Judging from the conept art, it looks like female marines won't be hyper-sexualized. Which is good. There are enough hyper-sexualized women and hyper-masculine men in video games as it is.

    Try as I might, I can't mentally picture that without imagining the moving plates catching on hair. Ouch.

    Also, macro to change the desktop background when outside temperature is >70 degrees?
