nykel007 Posted December 12, 2001 Share Posted December 12, 2001 I hope Raven puts in cool small animations. You know in JK+MotS like when kyle changes from saber to guns he would turn and, in my opinion a bit jerky pull each weapon out. With the new engine this should be a lot better looking. Also, what when you're in 3rd per. using guns, I hope we be able to see the saber. I also hope it moves and shifts whenever you walk, run whatever you do.

StormHammer Posted December 13, 2001 Share Posted December 13, 2001 I have to say that in a lot of Raven games (especially recent games) their characters are always well animated. Using mo-cap should pick up a lot of the little nuances of movement that can really bring a game alive. So I'm confident we'll see some fluid weapon changes, etc., throughout the game.

MRJ Posted December 13, 2001 Share Posted December 13, 2001 I'll have you know I spent *months* practising that 'elbow bent just so as head tilts back and the beer flows' motion so that it would be perfect. I'm still waiting for word when they'll be ready to mo-cap it. Ah well, back to 'work' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormHammer Posted December 13, 2001 Share Posted December 13, 2001 LOL Now that would be funny in-game. Walk up to a bar in a cantina, nick some poor NPCs brew and knock it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GonkH8er Posted December 13, 2001 Share Posted December 13, 2001 i'd love to see one where kyle tosses his saber from hand to hand grinning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenG Posted December 13, 2001 Share Posted December 13, 2001 Yes it would be nice to see Small Animations. In half-Life there were lots. that Freeman guy couldn't stop moving his gun around. i hope to see kyle spin his saber like obi-wan did in TFM.

wardz Posted December 13, 2001 Share Posted December 13, 2001 i would like him to start messing around with his lightsaber, then accidently kill some NPC. Like the sort of thing in Waynes World with Garth and the drill up the side of the car. But thats just me.. wardz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord_FinnSon Posted December 15, 2001 Share Posted December 15, 2001 I'm happy enough, if Kyle takes a look around few times, when he is idle, but always keeps his saber ready for possible attacks and then perhaps spins it only once; maybe it's his own way of keeping himself calm. Otherwise moves like that are quite useless, especially during duels, because they tend to look like you are playing the big shot and that's why you easily get your butt(or face) kicked, like Maul shows to Obi-Wan few times before their final duel in TPM.

Millions o' Monkeys Posted December 15, 2001 Share Posted December 15, 2001 but animations just make the game more enjoyable. Like the first time i played jk i stopped for lunch at one part and poof he strted moving his saber around...oh the days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GonkH8er Posted December 15, 2001 Share Posted December 15, 2001 I loved the tribes and tribes 2 animations. You were able to perform them yourself, with preset keys, like little celebration dances and things. It was pretty funny. But I suppose some of those things would be un-called-for in this game. Rest assured, Raven will think of something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Bjorn Posted December 15, 2001 Share Posted December 15, 2001 Speaking of the animations, MRJ, I noticed that some of the animations in EF were recycled from SoF. I'm refering to the death animations. Will JKO be sporting all new animations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
