New "sit" griphics

[Solo]

Re: druid and other illusions out there,
I’d like to see a sit graphic for illusions such as wolf form, spirit of earth mother form … ect.
While in one of these forms when you sit to med there is not a change in the player graphic. The only way you know whether your sitting or standing is the sit/stand button. Maybe we could have the feign death graphic put in for when we sit down. Nothing can be harsher than spamming the heal MT button and watching his HP continue to drop without change ….your sitting down the whole time…noober lol

That is a pain, and the reason all my heal hotkeys start with /stand.

 

[seferon]

yep its a pain all my hotkeys have /stand as first line and another way you can check if your siting or standing is to spin press a direction as if to turn around if your siting you dont spin if your standing you spin

ya i think a sit graphic would help , mostly in the earthmother form ive had it happen to me when you get the dreaded message "you must be standing to cast a spell" =) but ya knowing if you are standing or siting with out looking at the key or spinning would be cool .

I'm sure the game lacks those animations/models, otherwise they'd already be incorporated.

Earth mother sit graphic is undoable.

Wolf sit graphic is the only one possible and that would entail going to new wolf models.

Wolf sit graphic is the only one possible and that would entail going to new wolf models.

TBH, I argued for using the old wolf models, and then I saw them again...=(

Nostalgia > reality.

 

[Slippers1]

Yes. Old wolf models are far, far inferior to the new.

One vote for new wolf models, here.

 

[Waldoff]

I tend to agree. New wolves are sooo much easier on the eyes.

 

[seferon]

i miss my different colored wolfs i would like them back add another vote for new models

 

[Haisei]

Yes, I think the love has very much disappeared for the old wolves. It might have seemed fun for the first 5 seconds... but then the reality of wolf/dog ambiguity, poor graphical quality and lack of a sitting animation sets in.

 

[Luthien]

Add another vote for the new wolf model. (wasn't thrilled when server reverted to the old ones anyway)

 

[SlicerSV]

i never even got to experience new wolf model, the Game hadn't incorporated them yet when i quit, and SoD if they ever had it (which it seems they did by some of the comments in this thread) had already removed them by the time i started playing.

typically though, the newer graphics in Game were improvements, so i'd like to try out this new wolf model. it's the removal of any kind of plot motivation that screwed the Game for me.

 

[Brimztone]

Not sure about wolf form, but while in elemental forms, you can tell when you sit and stand up when in first person. The change is slight, and by slight, I mean blink and you could miss it slight, but they are there.

As good as the memories from old graphics for wolves is, the new models are very, very nice.

 

[DreadBlade99]

I like the new wolf models too, though their attack animation still sucks (looks like they want to shake paws with you). The only old wolf model I have liked is the Velious wolf, those Dire wolves just look plain-old mean

But please, let's not even think about all the other new models. Just about everything got revamped on Live, and some of the new models were just horrible, either lacking any sort of walking animation worth a crap, or poor attack animations, or godawful sounds, like the spiders.

Actually, now that I think about it, I wouldn't mind seeing the LDON orc models from rujarkian hills, those guys looked great.
