New Hairstyles Datamined?

Kenzi August 1 2008 4:08 pm 52 Comments

Wowinsider posted about the new hairstyles that apparently where datamined by Andrige. There are disclaimers that he wasn’t real familiar with the current hairstyles, so some of them may be old ones. You be the judge:

Males (via Big Bear Butt)

Females (via Resto4Life)

    it looks like all of these are the old hairstyles but applied to different races. it’s cool seeing some of the combination’s, but it’s not so much new hairstyles.

  • Bleh said:

    This can’t possibly be new hairstyles, 70% of them are just from the other races. All of the male draenei ones are male belf hairstyles.
    A load of B this one.

  • Mumluk said:

    hmm, sure this isn’t fake? If this really is the “new” hairstyles it might just be just as good sticking with the old ones :P

  • Dar said:

    I foresee many human rogues with fist weapons and Wolverine hair.

    Wheres the Dwarven love

  • Lothie said:

    wow, i wanna see how my female dwaft will look like :(

  • Pixsol said:

    Seems a bit fake imo, it’s just hairstyles from other races pasted on another race for example Belf female hair is now also human female hair. And some pics just look horribly deformed.

  • Geo said:

    Well, i can only hope that most of these are fake, but there are some additions that are to my liking…

  • Redeye said:

    FAKEEEEE

  • ChaosHaven said:

    Meh, it’s still Beta so not that much harm done (unless this is unchanged content) Hopefully Blizzard will come up with more “New” hairstyles instead of copy/past’ing over 3/5 of the added hairstyles from other races.

  • Johnny said:

    It’s Sad that blizzard still hasn’t realized that even though it’s a fantasy-game… you don’t have to resort to Anime Hairstyles.

  • Zigg said:

    every hairstyle except the Tauren and Troll Male hair are just hairstyles ripped from other races. And why wouldn’t fantasy games have anime hairstyles? It’s a fantasy game. As in: you can have your hair as ridiculous as you want it.

  • lolanime said:

    Yeah, it seems pretty iffy.
    And no one said the hair couldn’t be ridiculous, but uh… Anime is the worst thing that Japan has done to us since World War II. Ughhh.

  • Geo said:

    In response to lolanime, please elaborate on why you feel that way about Anime. I’m all for opinions, but outlandish claims such as yours are ridiculous and should be kept to yourself.

  • Bug said:

    Damnit, I want a pompadour.

  • Mazgorn said:

    I’m going to say these are fake, as most, if not all, were already used for other races (not including Tauren, but a lot of those are just… odd.)

    And I agree with lolanime. 90% of anime is terrible cliched themes with protagonists who look like women which anime fans use to craft a warped idea of ‘Japanese culture’. At first it was funny, but now it’s embarrassing when I realize these people are actually human beings.

  • Tanandra said:

    So Laughable, each an devery Haistyle exiting plasstered on another Race… Fake, i think, bit exactly what Blizz would do… Rewarm old Stuff.

  • Gispy said:

    If you actually go look at the models from the latest patch the geometry sets are there for the “new” hairstyles. The geosets for the gnome female styles are 20-25 and the night elf mohawk is 25 just to name a couple for example.

    Whether or not they ever actually get added to the game in this state is of course up in the air, wouldn’t be the first or last time Blizzard used placeholder graphics in a beta.

  • Bleh said:

    I forsee night elf males named MrT with a mohawk.

  • Vornesoul said:

    While it is true that quite a few are from different races, there are some brand new ones in there.

    Last Gnome Fem, middle NE male hair, Tauren horns, first and third NE fem are all new.

  • Ava said:

    I think they’re real. One of the first pictures leaked for this feature showed a male belf with tauren horns. This leads me to think that the “new” will really be “now available” which means my female belf can finally have the dranei pigtails she’s always wanted.

  • Yeah... said:

    only like 20% are new, Humans got BE hairstyles, BE got NE Orc got Undead, Undead got human etc.

  • Yeah... said:

    Btw theres dwarf ones if you go on the site (Bigbearbutts)

  • Bijou said:

    gotta love the undead chicks with pigtails rofl

  • amg said:

    Amg! Hope these are gonna be the ones! My belf female really wants the draenei haircut!

  • Thanatos said:

    These are totally fake… look at the male draenei hair cuts… remember that in the game every heair style the draenei have changes their forehead spikeyness look as well? well none of those styles are new… and since i doubt blizz would seperate the hair and forehead styles for them since it would give them one more option than everyone else then this is proof that these are either bs or crappy placeholders… and if you zoom in on the nelf fauxhawk (mohawks have shaved sides) you can see that the texture doesnt match the rest of his hair… and also if you remember the bard april fools joke thing had a animation of a forsaken one on there with slicked back black hair… why wouldnt they put that one in?…

    and besides all that evidence… the fact that some random blogger found these before wotlkwiki or wowinsider or wowhead or mmochampion? total bs… fake i say… FAKE!!!

  • Lunati said:

    For those who are screaming ZOMG FAKE, consider a few things. First off , this is beta, also, if you dig into it, there’s instructions on how to extract these from the beta files on the blogs linked from here, just browse the comments for a bit.

    For the draenei, they need some editing. These aren’t ingame yet, so they’re probably halfassed testing versions, and many might not even see the light of day, ones that don’t match will be altered to match as time goes on.

    Wouldn’t put it past them to let some slip into the game with mistakes, I haven’t seen a female troll blink yet. ^-^

  • Skreeran said:

    Lunati, they are screaming “ZOMG FAKE” because the original poster at Resto4Life made them himself, and even said so. He doesn’t lots of model shapeshifts. Wowinsider jumped the gun and said they were official, and then Deathknight.info reposted the same thing. It’s just a giant wave of misinformation caused by a few ignorant mistakes.

  • Skreeran said:

    Note: Now I can’t find where it said he made them, perhaps it was on Big Bear Butt, but no matter, even withotu a confession, it’s likely that someone who is famous for model edits submitted hairstyles that were simply editted.

  • Euin said:

    They might aswell be real. Noone ever talked about NEW hairstyles. Blizzard might aswell just make all hairstyles available to all races? Youre looking at it from the wrong point of view :P

  • Zero said:

    These are so fake… Anyone who believes these hairstyles are real should be slapped. The styles look so bad, considering they’re just from other races. Photoshop lawl

  • bigd said:

    lol

  • Bluk0 said:

    the male humans look like freakin goku. This better not be the new hairstyles cause theyre just hair from the other races. Pretty lame if these are actually it. goes to show that blizz is just lazy. although the NE mohawk i can allow.

  • Jay said:

    WHAT 9000?!

    Seriously though, if this is real. The human hairstyles are quite possibly the most retarded thing I have ever seen. This is not an anime game, we do not need electrocuted hair.

  • Larkane said:

    Well ill mention this, These are really in the game files they arent fake at all. These are found inbedded in different spots :)

  • Shackle said:

    Jesus people… you talk like they did this permanently and on live. -_- when the hair system first came out they used other races hair on others just to see if the system worked. It’s not like the beta has a few more MONTHS to go before its the actual REAL GAME.

  • Megs said:

    The first NE Female isn’t new, it’s a dwarf female style. Looks to me like all the NE male ones are new. The gnome mohawk (orc has it too) also looks new. All the troll male look new to me, can’t really see the UD male but some of those look new. Also the first and (maybe) third from the end on the human female are new. Every single one of the orc female appears to be new, and I think they’re really nice (for orcs at least, they seem fitting, better than bald spots with some chunks). All the female troll are new…they look weird tho. A couple of the UD female might be new, i can’t really tell they look kinda generic.

    Anyways, I’m sure these aren’t ALL the new styles. However I wasnt to say that if we gets cross-race hair styles I want ALL of them open to every race. I want troll braids on my NElf Druid.

    This is pretty wrong.

  • enthroned said:

    i am SO disappointed about the undead female hair. i really hope they do something better with it.

  • Satoo said:

    Human male super sayan style hair FTW! zomg

  • Pocoloco said:

    Where are the femadwarfs?

    And the regular ones? :(

  • Kaio said:

    ROFL. all of these hairstyles look ridiculous. thats all.

  • Missy said:

    I think females of both factions should have a hair style that has Curls and/or Waves!!!

  • ConcernedCitizen said:

    Noo! Please leave out the “Night Elf Mohawk”! It is bad enough having lame hunters and warriors spam general chat calling themselves Leeroy Jenkins, we don’t need them to go around bragging about their “Night Elf Mohawk”.

  • reano said:

    damn i realy wanted dreads for my female troll :/

  • gnomeirl said:

    I really wanted ‘fros for my gnomes. Cotton candy heads. Pink ones. The new female gnome haircuts look positively hideous, they aren’t even a slight improvement to the current ones. I hope they don’t make it to live.

  • arne said:

  • Rahsus said:

    Sorry to say but these are real, If you watch the WOTLK Videos they do have those hair styles. Human one with the long hair looks the best. I was hoping for long hair on the Undead Male For a rocker thing

  • Iol said:

    Man.. they ain’t fake, but hell, Female Trolls never get anything cool :S , those hairstyles are fucking terribad

  • ?????? said:
