Suggestion: to add some more cool animations

[mikeboix]

We have seen some really awesome animations in this DLC. I really love how the towns and villages now look, with all these animated villagers. But I think you should take advantage of this great animations artist you have on your team to make some more "necessary" animations.

I think the DLC really need some battle animations. I'm talking about the singleplayer. It would be great to see the warriors on the shield wall hitting their weapons against their shields, the classical viking war cry. You could remove the native victory cry and add this. It would be awesome, really.

Also. The standing animations. They look awful, so rigid. I'm sure you could make great new standing animations. On the dalogs of the storyline mode, all the characters are standing on their feets, so this would be a very recurrent animation.

This is just a suggestion for you when you finish catching all the bugs, but please take it on consideration.

Cheers.

Some more animations would be cool, and is there any chance of being able to carry torches or have fires burning in night battles? Specifically attacking monasteries and the like.
Also, any chance of us seeing actual church looking churches? I want to be able to slaughter those monks in front of their cross.

In another thread people were talking about how traits would unlock stuff like battlecries, maybe there is something like that for a shieldbashing order or something, it's worth looking into it.
The combat animations need no change, vanilla's are more than fine and changing them always leads to confusion while blocking.
God damn Floris.

When I said "battle animations" I was talking about battlecries and so, not the way the characters move their weapons and so. I'm with you on that, the native animations on combat are alright
