Arnabas Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 So, currently, we can turn into a panther to run around. Any chance we could someday get a wolf form? I mean, wolves are in the game already. Would that be very difficult? 1 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clave Dark 5 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I was recently thinking about this too, we have a number of animals already coded into the game, such as wolves, lions, etc. And can we have these powers merely suppress toggles, not turn them off completely? 1 1 ╔═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Clave's Sure-Fire Secrets to Enjoying City Of Heroes Ignore those farming chores, skip your market homework, play any power sets that you want, and ignore anyone who says otherwise.

Arbegla Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Doesn't the 'beast run' give you the option to run on all fours, regardless of your costume? I know its not quite the same as a full body transformation, but its still really close, and it doesn't suppress your toggles at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(It seems I'm involved with so much at this point that I may not be able to easily retrieve access to all the notifications) Some players know that I have them on ignore and are likely to make posts knowing that is the case. But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it.

You do run on all fours with beast run, but you move to a two-legged stance as soon as you stop moving. 1 If someone posts a reply quoting me and I don't reply, they may be on ignore.

Andreah Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 The animal form travel powers (coyote & panther?) are very cool. I'd like to see them expanded to other animals we already have the models for (e.g., from the beast mastery -- wolves and lions). Further, and this is probably the hard part, I'd like them to have basic pose emotes for standing or sitting still, and also a walk mode for when the walk power is enabled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudra Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 (edited) Considering Walk suppresses other travel powers? Not likely. Edit: The only way I could see that working is if instead of a travel power that suppressed your character's powers, it was a full transform like CO has. Where the character is transformed into a different character complete with his/her/its own powers. Since it would be a full transform instead of a travel power, it could include its own walk power.

IIRC, the various MM wolf pets already have some of their own animations, so it shouldn't be too difficult to port them over to such a power...

Player2 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Why's it gotta be all beasts? Can we get a flight power that turns us into the hero/villain team transport vehicle? I mean, not technically transforming into vehicles but implying that the hero is inside piloting the vehicle, sort of like Skyraider bosses. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudra Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Thugs have pets that have them, so should be possible already. Question would be incorporating jumping into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.I.D.A. Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 I am given to understand animations are the most difficult part of adding new things to this mess of a game, but I'd be happy with a motorcycle I could ride around on for RP even if it came with Jump Height -9999% like some of the ground powers that stick you to the ground do. Uh, ice slick, I think, or something? Can't jump while in it. Give that same debuff to the motorcycle while you're on it, and now you don't have to make a jump animation XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XD Land vehicles are more problematic because of the way the game treats movement. We would be able to strafe left and right without the wheels reacting accordingly, so... chances of a motorcycle happening are slim to none. I would love to see the motorcycle (used in one of the Thugs MM summons) without the wheels and given little rockets to explain the levitation, and we can have bikes like DC's Lobo or the 90s Avengers skycycles.

All they have to do, really, is create your character sitting on a bike. Not very animation-intensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motorcycles would require more than just that given how characters move and how motorcycles don't. I would love to have vehicle type options in the game including motorcycles, but cars and motorcycles don't have lateral movement capability. How about speederbikes like from Star Wars or grav bikes like from CO? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saiyajinzoningen Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 If we could turn into wolves and birds i would not need my kheldian anymore lol........ Its easy to criticize a suggestion but can you suggest an alternative? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangeraaron10 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 For a while, DCUO let Shapeshifters turn into a Pteranodon. Not useful in combat but was cool to use but as far as I know they removed it some time ago. Maybe HC will let us turn into Pteranodons. That'd be neat!
