    I really like the new race! But we still don't know for which faction it will be available....... I'd say TDD! 

    Born as a berserker, I was also a hero, a bounty hunter, a paladin ,a troubador and a paladin once again during my Mmo''s experiences .. Now travelling in a galaxy looking for a new adventure

    Just curious how many people would actually play this race. It doesn't interest me at this point.

    I voted yes. I think it looks pretty cool, and honestly I just see my character's ass 99% of the time anyway - it could be a stick figure for all I care.

    More excited for the 'building' update later this week and the RVR update, whenever that comes out. (I think the week after?)

    And of course, more iterations on the engine/smackhammer.

    Character looks ok, wings are a bit weird but if they stay like in the high poly walk cycle and function as a kind of cape then they don't look that ridiculous. Just don't make these ass-wings functional please.

    Would be interested to see the real low poly model in the game engine, that hair for example. A textured version would also be nice to see (in engine, low poly).

    Nice model but I'll put in another vote for lose the ass wings. I'd like the races to make some evolutionary sense, wings don't make much sense in that location, and seem they would hinder movement.

  • I think that race has a lot of potential and looks cool, but I agree it looks a bit odd to have the wings on the butt. Moving them to the upper back might look better. It's not so bad when you see it walking and the wings kind of look like a dress, bit the artwork where it's facing towars you with the wings unfolded it looks wrong to me.

    was that "high poly" though? The other animations we've seen have all been the same 12k limit that andrew has imposed for CU.

    Was it mentioned that they didn't stick to that?

    I love how when a new race is developed by a completely organic artistic process, suddenly everyone has a PhD in Evolutionary Biology and says that races have to make "evolutionary sense".

    Cool looking Mob.  As a player race, hope it's TDD, I'll enjoy killing them.

    lol. Yeah, step 1 - it's fantasy, this is a work in progress, etc.

     

    but step 2 - simple. put it on the females only. the dragonmen find that shit SEXY. the women with the bestest wings are the most likely to breed. in 10,000 years, they may well be full dragons, or at least have massive wings ;p

     

    BAM. SCIENCED.

    LOL awesome
