Animation of attacks

[L1lpump]

Hey Revolution Team,

after doing some "ask around" work i figured out that the game we all love and play is still missing some "real pokemon" favor.

After talking to a few players theese things were most likely the missing:

 

(1) Animation of attacks:

 

-alot of attacks that should have a kinda cool animation for exmpl. Hyper Beam,Fire Fang,Seismic Toss,dragon rage and some more dont have one.

 

-i totally understand that putting animations in the game might be tricky and alot of work and that you might want to keep the game competetive looking BUT the animations could THEN be at least fast ones.

No one wants you to do some ridiculously HD animations (like the "thunder" one) but if we could get some quick laser beam stuff for hyper beam and so on and so on would be brilliant..

 

-by the way "double slap" drives me crazy its by far the most annoying animation (nearly a taunt) cause its sooo slow + it can hit to 5 times.. the normal "karate chop hand" swiping accros the hitted pkmn would be amazing <3

 

(2) Size of Pokemon in the Top placement of the Team

 

the whole size of player and size of pkmn thing might be a bit tricky but for example Gyarados ~6meters and Onix ~8m are compared to the player huge.

BUT for example tyranitar ~2m and Rhyperior 2.4m are little as hell which makes me kind of sad because if i put a rhyperior at the top of my team i am a) dump cuz weak vs too many b) sad cause its not that huge badass looking pokemon it should be.

I know that its a lot of work but i would love to actually SEE the rhyperior behind a player and not leave me guessing if it might be a rattata. xD

 

By the way i definitely know that gyarados and onix are kinda "wrapped because they have a snaky body type but by looking at the numbers on bulbapedia a walk up right rhyperior should be not bigger but nearly as big as a 2times wrapped onix.

 

(3) HUD in battle

 

talking about the HUD out of battle i see a well organized Screen with some arrows and buttons to open the backpack/pokedex/social and pull-able arrows for the pokemon near and the chat, its overall very good looking and fine organized.

BUT the inBattle HUD looks (not to be rude) kind of lame..the spiky speech bubble for FIGHT the pokeball for the pokemon and the Backpack and Flee...it looks really boring and the fact that its ONLY controllable with the mouse makes "relaxed " keyboard only play impossible.

An emulator oriented controlling would be very comfortable.

 

 

(4) Mounts and Bikes

In my case, i bought a mount for coins, to support a free online game thats made with so much love like this one.

 

But facing the fact that my friend that joined the game and first isnt willing to pay money instantly had to safe 60K + catch ditto to get from town to town and doing a fundamental thing done fast (trading,boss fighting,arena etc.) was a motivation draining thing.

 

In that case id like to ask this- why not do it like with the jetski (lowkey reskined surf pkmn) or do it like with the HM surf or in Pokemon Red,Yellow,Blue (talking alot with a guy that loves Rapidash to get a free Bike) or at least to get a "SALE" Cupon to break the price at the local Bike store down to like 30 or 40K.

 

(5) Summarizing

You created an amazing game which already awakened a nostalgic but also competive "spirit" in me.

 

Of course nothings perfect from the begining so over all i would say that alot of players which are new to the whole "competetive pokemon" would stay or be more if there would be theese little aspects of older pokemon games.

well do you know u can skip that by speed up the dialog at options right? if you put at max , will remove every animation in battle,but yes i agree .
