Where are the cinematic kill animations?

[finn12koch]

im not saying that this game is bad at all its seems like a good one

i already did talked about the animations here before and many people were saying that they confirmed the cineamtic animations and yet there are none
i know the generals have them but still the normal units dont and that is simply a downgrade to older TW games

yes total war warhammer didnt have them too but atleast they the argument that there are just too many different factions or races to make cinematic animations and even that is not really a good argument

but in three kingdomes?
there are only humans and not that much different unit types
i dont know maybe they are planning a DLC for the animations that atleast sounds more like CA
but if there will be none its just another example of content that is straight cut out of the game

try to change my mind

DLC for the animations? You don't mean the upcoming and inevitable Blood DLC?

Normal units does have sync kill animations... Guess you're just unlucky to spot em.

[Dregora]

What kind of kill animations are you referring to? From regular units like they had in shogun 2 and rome 2?

If that's what you mean; I hope they'll never come back. They're extremely annoying, break up formation and it just messes up everything .That's why they took them out in warhammer.

It worked in shogun 2 due to the theme but, aside from general kill executions, I don't want to see them being done by regular enemies.

I can't check, because I'm not have the game, banana country, broke, you know the drill, but was announced that there were some sync kill animations.

i dont like it too when they break the formation and im completly fine with random stabing but the final execution has to be a cinematic one thats all i expect even empire total war had them

There are sync kills for normal soldiers, but they are fast, it's still cool to see them

Synch animations do happen, at least when infantry is fighting infantry. Synch kill animations though rarely happen (saw them 3-4 times in 1 hour of custom battle benchmarking), most of the time one dude strikes and the other guy falls backwards (especially hilarious when the other dude seems to be thrown back like 2 metres as if he'd been hit by a truck rather than a sword). Haven't seen any kill syncs for cavalry fighting infantry

Yeah, and that's why people were happy when was announce that sync-kill antimations were a thing. (And not matched combat because was... problematic as Dregora pointed).

And surely the Blood DLC will add more kill animations by the way.

maybe im just blind

[Darth Revan]

i read that they are there but that they are ultra rare, cant confirm that yet though.

[GPM]

If they are their, which it seems they are, we can mod the animation packs to increase the value of finishers. It may break the game but it will look cool.

My problem, is I cant download or activate the Free Yellow Turban DLC! It's N\A on the DLC store page.

As I bought game from outside steam. CA or Steam cannot recognise it in the library which means there is no link to the DLC content.
