FPS mode?

Sounds like a thing that people would want.

Not going to happen. Really not worth going into. But the engine won't do it. And the devs don't want it.

Don't you think this kind of combat would've made Skyrim more interesting and fluid?

I think it'd make the controls a lot simpler, though.

That idea xD How you would swing? Since game uses cursor,they dont want to do it plus it would require remodelling of present fight system.

I agree, more zoom.

Well, I'm glad these guys are experimenting with physics based combat. I think if someone brought into the FPS category, it'd be the next big step, both for realism and exciting combat.

While not feasible for Exanima without reworking things, first person would make it possible for the player to aim attacks such as thrusts/swings at head/leg level, or aim thrusts. And allow much freedom for aimed ranged attacks. It'd also help immersion, the models are pretty details in Exanima.

It's like people think with only half brain at any time. So if cursor controls swing in first person, how do you look around?always toggle between attack and look? Lemme see you try to turn and attack mid combat. Next so now we have all this physics movement what happens when we get hit, the camera shakes, disorients, jerk all around, imagine falling over. And then guess what, we don't see the physics cuz all we see is our hands and weapon, pointless. This isn't a case of take physics + fps camera + magic spit + ductape of infinite holding= best fps combat ever.

I wonder how you got that idea, it is not a very common request on this board from what I see.

I imagine you have played the game and understand the controls. How exactly is any of these things going to work in first person?

How exactly, and why do you want that?

I really wonder, why would Exanimas physics based movement enhance a first person mechanic?


And on another note: Doesn't FPS stand for first person SHOOTER? Why is everyone saying fpS? ^^

If you ditch the physics and what makes the combat amazing, could work then, a first person perspective ;d

Thrusts and ranged weapons, you will be able to aim precisely with them. They will use a different cursor/targeting system.

Is this a serious thread?
