[392] Issue: DROID ARMY

January 15, 201511 yr

As requested by some of the other backers, I am submitting an issue about characters moving completely in sync being immersion breaking.

I made a Suggestion Thread about this issue quite a while ago, and demonstrated how the Infinity Engine games handled this problem:

http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/68671-sensukis-suggestions-019-desynchronized-character-movement/

Should be a simple fix that will make characters not run in sync and look more realistic.

Just a heads up also

A while ago I made a suggestion about moving the combat idle to recovery time only. This would help give better visual feedback in combat as to if characters actually have an action assigned or not, and would allow people to disable the Combat HUD and get clear feedback when their action is issued. The game currently doesn't offer that

Its their military discipline/doctrine to walk in sync (even when underground or half an acre away - they need to be THAT good)

Reading this, now I kinda want the Desynch Movement to be optional, because I can totally see a situation where I'd want all my toons to move at the same time, if I, say, make a whole party of soldiers.

Try a party of rangers. swords for close range, bows for long. They wipe the floor up with the enemies.quickly too, if you use the daily's

Valians with turbans, sabres, cats for pets, blunderbuss for ranged.. yes.. yes, this could work.
