Does jogging and running seem odd?

Recommended Posts

How custom can you really get? I mean what's going to be the real difference between each weapon? I can understand rifle vs MG, but say Tavor vs another-rifle-similar-to-tavor... I don't think they're aiming for that.

I think they will limit themselves based on configuration. Bulpups will have their own style, so will pistols, standard rifles, sniper rifles, shotguns, etc. As long as there is a magazine going into the weapon an some basic common sense in the hand movement, I'm set.

I'm well aware of this but I have a vivid impression that old animations might be present for randomness sake and for what I discribed in the last post. Anyway, that could be changed, I misunderstood something or im just day dreaming. Gonna check that better went I get home....

Well, couldn´t find anything, but I remember it was discussed right after the "Stratis Teaser" trailer when they shown the "bad ass walking" animation. Someone said that the old ones (safe animations) will be back and I pressumed that would also apply to running'n'gunning. After all, it would be strange to see the tactical pace "stance" in open fields.

@Reload anims: They can cover a large range of weapons if they make anims for the most common plataforms such as M16/4/416, AK/RPK, bolt action, pump action, bullup rifles,MP5, M14 and MGs. Same goes for pistols\PDW. "Unusual" weapons like the P90, PP19 and...I don´t even remember anything else, would suffer, but its a nice tradeoff.

Well where did you get the idea that the tactical pace was the only stance/movement? And where did you get the notion that the "bad ass" walking stance was the only low ready/safe movement stance? There will be movement animations similar to the current A2 ones I'm sure. Doesn't mean that they will be the same. If anything, those old animations will be available to madders. The revs said they haven't taken anything away. Meaning that there are normal stances and animations. It's not just tactical pace/badass walking. In other words, you wont be forced to use tactical pace in an open field, or any other area for that matter.

From the lack of videos showing "normal" ones, except for the ones too dated to be considerated at this point. And from your own reply pages back:

IIRC they said that the old animations will be in, toggleable. Anyone can confirm?
Where'd you hear that? Would that not defeat the purpose of having a new animation system with new anims?

Hmm... looks like just a wording problem.

Second to last guy is walking using a different stance than the "bad ass" stance.

Yes, it's a "normal" low-ready stance, too.

You can clearly see the soldier lit by the blue chemlight is in a stance that is different than the tactical stance. NOT that hard to see.

Cuz I kinda assumed that you would have seen those videos... I didn't realize you hadn't seen or had forgotten those parts of those videos. I just thought that was pretty obvious. Sorry. And, two posts is hardly "dragging".
