_Eclips3_ Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I don't know whether it's only me who notices this, but it's like DE ripped some wings off a pidgeon and glued them to the frame, they slowly flap if you stand still, other than that, they are basically dead. They could atleast animate when you move, fold a bit when you crouch, just something, not just sit on your back stiffer than a statue. EDIT: When I say stiff, I mean they are constantly just streched out or invisible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lakais Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 For a free cosmetic more for fancy screenshots, it's quite good. But I do agree that it lacks personality. I would of loved to see the wings fold down when standing still and flapping once over long intervals. Spreading out during maneuvering and actually flapping a bit when aim gliding in particular. A missed opportunity if these wings were planned long in advance. But if they were a "spur of the moment" thing some artist in DE cobbled together three minutes before the stream, then I am perfectly fine with how it came out. Animating these things is not a trivial task. Especially if you factor in the wildly varied body types the frames have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)robotwars7 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 animation is hard, or at the very least time consuming, and DE wanted the wings out in time for the event, knowing full well it's 99% of the incentive to buying Debt-Bonds and/or running Fortuna Bounties again. I still like them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TARINunit9 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I wish they would indeed fold when you aren't doing anything or just walking slowly around the relay, so they aren't covering up two thirds of the screen. Like how Nova Prime's moving parts work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still like them. Still, it could even be atleast a basic fold animation when walking or something, better than 2 stiff protrusions out your back. Making them go invisible is a bit lazy.

shut Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 All I want is for them to do a single "flap" whenever the user doublejumps or bullet jumps. I'm not sure about whether they should be folded when idling (since that would instantly break, like, 99% of the "angel" loadouts that everyone and their grandmother has equipped right now), but it would be nice if they folded when shooting and aiming, instead of being completely outstretched and having to awkwardly transition between visibility/invisibility based on enemy proximity.

(PSN)EVILFLUFFMONSTER Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 While I agree that more animations would be better, they are really good free item that is great the way it is. I cant help but feel we got given something good for free, which they could have slapped a price tag on and tons of people would have bought. I mean, ive already bought about three wing-looking syandanas and none of those fold up, except the corpus one that actually unfolds with damage taken (never gets unfolded lol). I totally understand constructive criticism is a good thing, and opinions are genuinely how you feel..but it does feel like you are a teeny bit ungrateful. I didnt even have to run any bounties, ive stacked up plenty of debt bonds just by playing so just logged in and picked them up. Thanks DE! I do agree that some flapping animated wings that unfold could be nice, as an idea for the future. Perhaps Devil wings for Halloween? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)VKPButcher Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Eh, my biggest issue with them is clipping. Were it not for that I'd likely rock them on my op but oh well, cest la vie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hrenovor Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I noticed a 25-40% drop in performance with the wings depending on location. In an orbiter with wings, fps 115-130. Without wings 180-200. On the eidolon, the FPS drawdown is up to 40. If you aim, the wings disappear and the FPS rises to 100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaoticEdge Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 they need work on wing project, they need look up other dev ppl that are off game. Spoiler for the game require flapping the wings when about to do that bullet jump so it look so nice and it will give credit, soaring or gliding should be depending how long your gliding for do tiny flap like a bird Spoiler pretty much that is it but when landing Spoiler pretty much this sum it up of nice landing.

ScottStaten Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 My big problem is that they block my view on some frames... On my Wukong they become almost invisible when I am fighting, on wisp they remain Opaque and I cannot SEE the enemy to shoot them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tesseract7777 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 They are cheap as dirt to get and super detailed looking I have no serious complaints. And I haven't found they obstructed me during combat, but if they do for anyone on any specific frames, then definitely that is something DE needs to look at and tone down where necessary (I would suggest reporting it in bug reports if it is too obstructing) as that is probably the most relevant forum. They are a biiiiiit much when in the relays and stuff, but you aren't really that worried about proper visibility in relays. If you are in a busy relay you probably are more there to show off/be seen/or just be around people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
