I'll explain it more accurate: I want to play the attacking team and defending team on the same map. To get the full experience.
Besides: Learning how to defend objectives also makes you more experienced in attacking. You notice the weak/unguarded spots. Same goes for attacking instead of defending. It works in both ways.

Yay, I may be inspiration for a potential comic.

Resistance. I love the Anger's bandana.

The Clown facepaint (Resistance) is awesome. So I'm gonna have to say Resistance.

Nope,sry,can't forget it
I always be resistance/revolutionary...

“Introduce a little anarchy,upset the established order,and everything becomes chaos,I’m an agent of chaos,and you know the thing about chaos?It’s fair.”
“Don’t talk like one of them,you’re not!Even if you’d like to be.To them,you’re just a freak–like me.They need you right now.When they don’t…they’ll cast you out.Like a leper.See, their morals, their code: it’s a bad joke.They’re dropped at the first sign of trouble.They’re only as good as the world allows them to be.You’ll see,when the chips are down these civilized people will eat each other.Ya see I’m not a monster,I was just ahead of the curve.”~Joker

Well for me always resistance feels more appealing/free form and thus more beautiful.

Studies have been done that show your opinion of a persons personality affects what you think of them physically. If you find someone really annoying or vulgar, you will see them as much less attractive than you would otherwise, and the opposite is also true.

So separating peoples opinions of the fashions and what they think of the factions might not be as easy as you think =P

Based on looks alone, I'm pretty much 50/50.

Security looks great with that sleek, clean-cut sci-fi feel. My left brain also likes how must of their gear is armored and tactical, making for a much more believable case of being able to withstand 30 rounds to the chest and able to carry 500 rounds of ammo.

On the other hand, I like Resistance not because I like to pretend I'm el Che, but because I'm just a dirty, dirty skank for anything weathered, grungy and post-apocalyptic - so Resistance is definitely badass as well.

I just wondered: Do people who prefer the Resistance also prefer Container City? And do the Security-Folks prefer the ARK Airport?

For me, that's a pretty hard comparison - harder than chooseing between the two factions. When it comes to the architecture, the airport does appeal to me in a typical sense, but the container city provides an excellent backdrop for the whole story, it just seems so immersive when you put it into the context of the game. I suppose you could say the same of the characters, but the difference is that the character represents you while the maps represent the virtual world.

I prefer the clean/armoured look of Security, though I'm sure I can find something I really like with the resistance.

I'd say dependes on the mood...and customisation rules!
though for operative style I would prefer security since they have those kinda sneaky outfits...

I find your answer very interesting, because I do see the environment and character looks as one unit. Personally I prefer the clean look, that goes for both the Security Forces and the places of the ARK which are still in their original shape. However, only the Resitance Force does illustrate a look of freedom, while Container City rather represents abandonment and poverty.

security looks like it could outnumber resistance 2:1 it makes sense in a some ways.

La resistance!

Do not be deceived by this poll. This is only about the looks of the factions.
Besides, there's only a small amount of people discussing Brink here, when you release the game security and resistance will probably be around 50/50

I like how the resistance looks more than the security... Granted, i'm playing both, they both have awesome looks which i wish to use, and frankly, the resistance has a cool stealth guy, and the security has red spy, so why not play around with both?

Resistance looks awesome

im a reblious person so Resistance and i like the style of clothing but im goin back and forth between the Security and the Resistance just because i want to see both sides and i like the high tech stuff every now and then

Resistance has more support, yet the security still has more votes. I wonder what this will be like when the game comes out.

Well, my first impulse was to say that people will just join whatever team has an opening, regardless of loyalties, as each character works for both sides. But then i realized it may not be that simple with the advanced AI filling out the teams, so that you could consistently have more player characters on one side without the game becoming unbalanced. Should be interesting to find out.

I gotta say security for the urban camo facepaint and berets.

I guess in player-groups people will tend to chose one side over the other, but in random public play, they will just chose auto-assign.

However, there will always be the people who pick the winning team or the one which has a slight advantage in a particular environment.

On the clothes alone Security but i suspect that's the ocd, i think there's a chance I'll end up as the only 'clean' looking resistance guy. Also my clan mates have a unified colour scheme in mind too, so that might change what i like..

Umm... I am going to play both. But I think over all, I will pick to fight for... the resistance, just because I like the idea of fighting against oppersion and what not. There is no right or wrong, which is what I like, so I can choose either side.
