A Flying Improvement :3
« on: February 06, 2013, 12:19:39 am »
So, we can all agree that flying is very slow, and that someone without wings is easily faster with the dash. So maybe the flying should be faster? I think it would be a good idea :3

Yeah, this would be a good idea, also if flying looked a bit more...realistic instead of just flapping. But it took a lot to make FH what it is now, and I doubt Kovu_LKD will EVER come back, but your idea is a very good one ^^

I agree, although I'm not a big fan of wings myself, I think I'd use them more often if they were faster and more realistic.
If flying is made faster, then I think the wings animation will need to be slightly altered too.

I agree with Thyme, this is a very good idea. :]

No I need to run away from the winged creepers not get caught by them! (Yes, faster flying XD)

Perhaps flying could do with being a bit faster...I don't really use wings very much so I haven't formed much of an opinion. I have noticed though that the wing beat is pretty slow...and I think we could do with a new flight 'position'; right now when you're flying it looks like your rear end weighs a bloody tonne and it just hanging there. Just looks a bit weird in my opinion.

Yeah, even when we first got our winds last year, it was unanimous with pretty much everybody that a faster flying speed would be fabulous. But I like what Flob said, as well; the flying pose doors look a bit awkward. In most cases I find myself just altering the head position a bit so it faces downward more, which helps, but I think having the back a little more level during flight would give the appearance of more purposeful flight.

But, as Thyme said. That's just something we have to wait around for until Kov comes back to us.
(I still like the idea, though.)

Yeah, the position is weird when flying, and I just cannot stand it! Birds don't fly like that at all =/

But thanks for agreeing! :3
