Character animation is poor

Post by Stratohero »

Please improve the animation of your main character: shooting, running, getting hit, weapon's fire effects, etc.

Look up the rogue class in Wakfu for inspiration, or the Foggernaut.

The alien animations would be nice too.

Alpha 13 is supposed to include a major upgrade to combat mechancis and sophistication. One might imagine that they'll also enhance player character animations while doing those other things.

I almost think not too, if only for the reason that that "silly" animation is what got one of my friends hooked on the game. "Oh look silly animation? What game? Woah this game is pretty cool!"

(I personally dont see what is so silly that my friend sees, but I do like how the character looks now.)

I think it's really difficult to suggest such things, because the character and animation (and generally all graphics) is kind of art. It cannot be discussed.
Cool suggestion: Eatable MOUSE-pointers.
