Knife Animation
« on: June 29, 2006, 10:19:17 pm »
I think that when using knife just poking it foreward over and over again gets to be quite annoying.

So...

Why not make it so that when you fire the knife you do something with it thats actually interesting, like slash it down or across or something.

you mean multiple animations that make the soldier look more brutal while to the server every stab-attack is in actuality interpreted the same?  sure, would make it look more interesting!  Same for punching***

well jbigz, all I believe he wants is more animations to run on the client server.  This would not add to lag in any way nor change the game play at all.  It will only show the player different animations for slashing/stabbing/punching.

Your acting like your having a duel and your opponent gets a pistol and you get a spork.
Isn't that pretty much what it is? I dunno wtf a spork is, I suppose it's way weaker than the pistol since you compared that to this.

This animation can be edited locally and still allow for online play. My Razor Sword mod includes a very well-liked one. I'll have to repost it soon.

How about that you swing the knife when you attack whilemoving, and stab with it when standing still?

I think he doesn't just want a cooler animation - it would be better if there were multiple knife animations available that show up randomly when knife-attacking...

Yah, zyxstand hit it. I want there to be several animations that play with the knife randomly so that it just looks better.

Why not? Do one animation exist for every weapon?

well this goes with the idea of animated backgrounds (trees, clouds etc.) no improvement of gameplay, just aesthetics look nicer. Nothin wrong with a purtier game!
