Guest Posted May 31, 2003 Share Posted May 31, 2003 The other day, I was playing MTA with my brother, when, the funniest glitch occured! He was just sitting there in his car, and all of the sudden his arms started waving around! It made it look as though he was dancing! Upon closer inspection I realized that for some reason his character was playing the falling animation. Then his car proceeded to slowly float up in to the air and off in to the distance. But that's irrelevant, I just found it amusing. You know, like he was flapping his arms to make the car fly or something. No, really, it was funny. Maybe you had to be there. "But this is *all* irrelevant, how is this a suggestion?" I hear you say. Well, I suggest that once all the more important stuff has been done (I know how much you guys have to do, and how little time you have), that a button should be mapped to this falling animation for taunting. Obviously it would only work in the car, it would look stupid while on foot. I imagine it wouldn't be that hard to implement, as the animation is already there, but I'm no expert when it comes to these matters. If this suggestion sounds stupid (as I'm sure it does) I say just try it first before you criticize, it actually looks really good! It's not completely unheard of to have a taunt button in driving games. In Grand Prix Legends, you are able to press a button to raise your fist in the air, which is good for both cursing, and for mocking. I think this weird waving arm gesture would serve the same duel purpose. Link to comment

xerox Posted June 1, 2003 Share Posted June 1, 2003 i wondered if that was actually possible, but the taunt key should be used, i like it (like tagging in cs =) Link to comment
FiShMaStEr Posted June 1, 2003 Share Posted June 1, 2003 damn that would be funny as hell. Link to comment
Mr.Bill Posted June 1, 2003 Share Posted June 1, 2003 lol yeah I saw that too once, I was all like "WHAT THE HELL IS HE DOING?!?! doe she have a hore in there?" thats a good idea, A+ for you Link to comment
Guest Posted June 2, 2003 Share Posted June 2, 2003 It's been brought to my attention that the falling animation is the same as the drowning animation. So, perhaps our clients went out of sync and my brother fell into some water. I still have no idea as to why his car slowly floated away! Link to comment
me Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 well, if he was in the water, his car would bob up and down, and float around a bit... Cool idea: add a disco, where you can use the taunt thing to dance! Link to comment
xerox Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 lol - this is grand theft auto not grand disco dancer me =P Link to comment
me Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 why can't it be both!? We could add a robot animation, some break-dancing.... Link to comment
xerox Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 or not =P oh well, the "not high priority" thread is where this should all be i guess =) Link to comment
