Ardim Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Leave Fusion alone...just have them create a new animation for Tracer that isn't incredibly stupid. Switching them is easier... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izichial Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Another issue with the current tracer missile animation is that if you're using a chest armor piece without a jetpack (why do you fire your jet pack to get a missile off, anyway?) you'll have a giant flame belch coming out of thin air behind you. Looks rather stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yazule Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 i do NOT want my primary attack putting a target on my enemy so they know it is coming, I do NOT want a laser pointer pointing me out while casting, these are bot STUPID ideas for our main attack and I strongly oppose the change due to pvp awareness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bending over and lighting fireworks out of your rear is a much bigger giveaway than a very faint red line on the screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stranded_Law Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Switching them is easier... 1. Arsenal Mercs who are serious about pvp do not want a laser-targeter with their main attack. 2. I will just stop using Fusion Missile completely if I have to see my character taking a dump to use it. I don't care what's easier, it's a bad idea.

Kordrig Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Anyone playing an Arsenal spec Merc can agree that the animation for Tracer Missile blows. It's not that the animation itself is bad, but...we spam the heck out of Tracer so our BH is constantly bent over, which looks stupid. I think the easiest fix, so Bioware does not have to make a new animation or anything like that, is to simply switch the casting animations of Tracer and Fusion missile. I think the animation for Fusion makes much more sense for Tracer, and vice versa. I 100% agree, simple solution to a simple problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hytek Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I couldn't care less tbh. I'd rather see the devs spend their time more productively than wasting it on stupid stuff like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yazule Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 If that's the case, then Snipe must be worthless... Snipe is not worthless, but it also hits harder than TM... and when i have that icon on me, i can LOS him at least 30% of the time. This is the reason I complain about people asking for the change. If I can use their animation to reduce my damage, i don't want others to do the same to me. snipe is definitely LESS USEFUL because of the animation, and tbh that is plain dumb.

Devoter Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I couldn't care less tbh. I'd rather see the devs spend their time more productively than wasting it on stupid stuff like this. Sry, but if there is time for absolutely stupid things like gay marriage, then there should be time for stuff like this, that lots of ppl want since the beginning of the game. And its not even a big change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hxxr Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) I have to agree, Fusion Missile animation looks a lot like a missile trace and Tracer Missile cast looks a lot bigger and something that might explode for burning AoE damage. ;> Edited February 2, 2012 by Hxxr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And its not even a big change. A lot more people are annoyed by the lack of same-sex romance in the game than those who want Tracer Missile's animation changed. Just because you don't care about it, doesn't mean you have to be ignorant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Direach Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Add me to this list. I was psyched to finally get Tracer Missile, then disappointed to see I was going to be bent over for the next 30 levels. I know there's only so many ways to launch missiles, but there has GOT to be a better option than this for our main Arsenal attack (especially when compared to Grav Round, the Trooper equivalent, that gets a cool stance and sound effect).

Yazule Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 yes please...im soo sick of this I understand not liking that animation but please please no early warning in pvp (target graphics on intended target and red laser pointer) ... i mean really, in pvp this will be horrid, make a new animation, do not use the one that lets people put up sheilds and pre heals (or do LOS) because the "know it is coming" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeithseven Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Are people still interested in getting this changed? or has it fallen aside? I for one am still a big proponent of changing it. Hopefully the Devs understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
