CrookedCrooks Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 graphically this just seems very underwhelming to me. not saying i want it to be as cool looking as rail shot, just not as boring as it is now. any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef_BoyRUdead Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 All of the animations are a little underwhelming IMHO, none of them really say BFG to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bajak Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 (edited) All of the animations are a little underwhelming IMHO, none of them really say BFG to me. I agree with all skills but Pulse Cannon. PC has a way better animation than the BH Flamethrower. Reason being: PC actually shows the affected area MUCH better with the animation. FT is delayed and hard to follow. Makes the NORSE build slightly better in that regard for the trooper EDIT: To stay on topic, yeah...HiB's animation sucks Edited June 17, 2012 by Bajak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BioCharge Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 To me, it's not the animation, it's the noise. Half a dozen abilities (Dorne's wouding blast comes to mind) use the sound and makes it extremely boring. I want a deep *thump* when I hear one of my most powerful abilties go off, not a little *ba-dap*. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotlu-Hunlon Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 I prefer the modesty of the trooper animations to those of the bounty hunter - rocket punch is ridicuous and gets old fast compared to a lovely stock butt to the face. The only exception is Heat seeker missiles >>>>>>>> demo round. But yeah, high impact bolt just looks like it came out of potato gun - this helps you stay unnoticed more in pvp too compared big noisy massive laser rail shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rail Shot sounds like it's breaking the sound barrier, where as HiB sounds more like a wet fart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I once saw someone describe it as "like someone sitting on a ketchup bottle" lol. And I agree on sound effects - they should be based on the sound of your actual weapon, that way you can choose a weapon based on both looks and sound (I always choose the cannons with a deeper sound).

_gideon Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I'd be satisfied if they added a smoke trail and matched the projectile colour to your crystal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWTeraybte Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 To me it sounds like a rail shot charge that was loaded with "spit ball" ammo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
