Squig Herder

Anyone else find annoying that the bow has no string? the arrow doesnt appear until after launched, or what about shooting up and the arrow going straight? Who is the genuis who designed this crap? Oviously this person doesnt relize arrows dont move unless a string pushes it. Aparently he thinks they just magically launch? And generally when you shoot up! The arrow goes up, not straight.

    Your right. Not realistic at all… Burn the disc it’s a crap game…Then you can go outside and play with all the realistic goblins and orcs, while flirting with some Dark elves….

    Not sure, may have been the same people who decided what graphics to include/exclude or physics models to include/exclude when you get a ton of players in an RvR fight.  That would be my guess anyhow.

    I didn't know crotchety old ladies played video games

    Here's an idea, go ahead and take all that skill you have in game developing, and make something better. Until then go ahead and cry somewhere that doesn't involve me having to hear about it.

    Actually, I do have skill into game design. Currently im a GSP (Game Simulation Programming) student so I know how simple this is. Perhaps there game designers need to refresh there degree?

    Link where I can download your game that is obviously perfect.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Wait it doesn't exist? You mean you've never made an entire 3d game? Ever? Hmmm......... Maybe you need a nice tall glass of humilty. BTW Student doesn't mean you will ever go anywhere with it...

    Way too much hate in response to this one small critique.  I do enjoy playing this game and was hoping after closed beta that they would have added a touch more polish on not only the Squig Herder but the Shadow Warrior's bow animation.

    Doing somethign as a student on a 'small scale' and doing something on the 'large scale' for professional purposes are 2 entirely different things.  I'm in the simulations industry and let me tell you as someone who studied for Games (i took a simulation job just to get my feet wet in soemthing other than games first) there are times i want to beat to death people who talk about it needing to be more 'realistic' do you know how computationally heavy things get the more crap & bs you pile onto something to make it 'look real'.  I know I wanted to beat to death a pair of our customers who wanted the lighting on the water with a spot light to be 99% like it'd be in reali life...with all the water reflection & refraction to be dead on....lets just say I hate testing that water scenario now its the laggiest shit ever on computers that aren't top of the line.  But its what the customers wanted...they wanted 'real'. 

     

    WAR is a video game made for massive players on a single screen..making everything 'real' is a nightmare on the large scale especially if you want users to have decent performance.    Honestly take your student knowit all cram it and stop nit picking.  ITs a VIDEO GAME IN A FANTASY SETTING.

    You need to go back to Design 101 or atleast go into Online Architecture 101.

    My hate comes from a "holier than thou" attitude from this "game design student", when he has no experience what-so-ever in the real world programming.

    I would like to point out that bows on WoW have strings.

    War wasn't a WoW clone in the first place.

    It doesn't take a slight animation/graphical difference to see that.

     

    Groovy.

    Stop jumpin all over the guy... he's right.. I quit a SW at level 2 because the attack animations were so crappy. They definetly need to be worked on.

    If it's true you're taking GSP then that's cool.  This may be a bit off topic but I have a piece of advice for you; what you are learning in school is a small picture of what goes on.  This is true of pretty much any degree you can take.  You will learn more the first 6 months when you get your first job then you ever learned in school and the learning never stops.  You have a small idea of what the industry is about now but you have a lot to learn.  Keep those words in mind always and you'll do fine.  You always have a lot to learn.

    Just some hopefully helpful advice.  Take it or leave it.

    I guess you guys had it on low settings... because the Squig Herder i was playing had animations that made sense... a volley attack which explains the bow pointing up... and then auto attack / other moves, shot straight

    or.. you guys have terrible observation skills.. which im more willing to bet on...

    or.. you only played to lv 2 llike that one guy... only having 2 skills....

    or you just want to trash WAR on the simplest of things.....

     

    Anywho... What squig herder uses a bow anyways, totally go melee.. or use SQUIG ARMOR all the time...

    Its easy to pee in the toilet, but most of us dont.

  • DuraheLLDuraheLL Member Posts: 2,951

    WHAT!? The developers forgot to put a string on the bow!??? Thanks for telling me, I will break the discs and send threat mail to the devs. SHAME ON THEM!!!!oneoneone

    Ive played an archer in every mmo ive been in, we always get nerfed not loved..it is what it is.

    Really now, the animation upset me at first, but I got used to it and I have faith they will continue to improve this top notch game in the coming months and years.

    When I said i had "time", i meant virtual time, i got no RL "time" for you.

    It's something akin to saying you are taking a cooking class, and wondering why Food Network isn't knocking down your door.  (Shameless) Don't forget to attend those English classes either. ;)

    -------

    On topic it's just animation.  I think it would be more interesting to have an animation for short range attacks, and a separate one for long distance shots.  Something on the order of <65 & 65+ yards.  In the end, it's not going to make a huge impact on gameplay unless you are seriously hung up on that issue.

    You don't agree that basic animations should be a little more polished before release?
