Echoes83 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 While I appreciate the effort in trying to add more character to the Warframe (hint: making the color bright again would also accomplish this), some of the idle stances are downright bad. For example My Banshee with the chorus helmet on looks like she is staring at the floor and/ or her feet. Seriously, what was the thought process here? She almost looks like a ninja in a low stance, however such a ninja would be looking forward at their enemy NOT at the floor or her own feet. Should be an easy fix though, just nudge her head up a bit so she's looking forward at the grineer, corpus, infestation she might be facing instead of the floor. Thanks.

Enomilli Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 It's called eyeballs. She is looking up with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archistopheles Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 She dropped her contacts, or has eyes on the top of her head, or what ystella centered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echoes83 Posted August 10, 2013 Author Share Posted August 10, 2013 Eyeballs, sure. But with her helmet on it just looks like she's looking at the floor. It's a poor aesthetic choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalarcher Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Yeah, this is the only one I don't like too much. I mean, heck, I even liked Ash's stance before it got changed! But I guess it's just a little tilt of the head, no big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echoes83 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 Either way, it just looks bad. But fortunately it's really easy to fix, just move her head up a bit so its clear she's looking forward rather than down. Easy peasy as Mr. Oliver would say.

Noogums Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Look at the stance closely and imagine Banshee on the battlefield. She creates an air of mystery and solemn purpose, and gives the impression that she is in contemplation, gathering all her forces for any and all coming engagements.The only thing I'd say is that she should probably look up when aiming down the sights of her gun during the "Flair" animation, but all of these idles are still work in progress.

Stafer Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Maybe Banshee is blind. Maybe she builds an interpretation of her surroundings through echolocation. This means she may keep the wide face of her helmet towards where she is scanning. Just a thought though, because I quite like the pose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echoes83 Posted August 12, 2013 Author Share Posted August 12, 2013 Some interesting justifications, but as someone who mainly plays Banshee (I mean I paid for the avatar) I'd just like something a bit simpler. Nothing else needs to change, just have her look forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsurus Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) It's her shoes... She just noticed them. O_o Edited August 12, 2013 by Larsurus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echoes83 Posted August 12, 2013 Author Share Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) So to illustrate my point a bit, here's Banshee in her basic standing stance. Here's Banshee crouching. So you can see in the second image that she's still got her head low but is clearly looking forward. In my opinion making it so her head posture while standing is like it is while crouching would fix the issue with her stance. Like I said before everything else about it looks pretty good, it just really looks like she's looking at the floor. Here's another angle.

In this case I'd like to see a little bit of text with each warframe that would describe these characteristics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

basilioss Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Agreed. I think she needs to look up, not straight at the floor. (Personally I think she eyeing her shoes with immense loathing :P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
