Alright, so I was doing this merv archive mission and I led these Lupines, yada yada yada. They followed me, Yada, yada,yada. Then one of them attacked an NPC and I was very shocked to see an animation that can only exist when they attack an NPC. I bring you "The Lupine Headbutt"!




Err.... the screenshot isn't so good but its suppose to have the lupine jump on top like a hugging kinda thing, then a headbutt. So yeah was this in CR1? and what gives this animation only seems to appear only when a Lupine attacked an NPC???
#36300217855 04/18/2007 21:34:00 Re:Lupine Animation i have never seen...
I think that's one of their finishing moves. So you'd have to let them kill you a lot to have a chance to see it. ;)

Or hang around Ookami.

Looks like the flying headbutt move they have. I think it used to be buged and used the old logic canon IL animation or the silver bullet one.

Yep, thats flying headbutt, it just hardly ever works.

Heh yep. I believe the Guard Breaker move does all sorts of animations.

The coolest thing is one of the self-defense grab finishers, where you like use telekinesis to own peeps.

Yea I've been noticing some rare animations from my own character as well as NPCs, very interesting.  SMILEY

it is quite crazy
#36300218564 04/19/2007 14:37:20 Re:Lupine Animation i have never seen...

Lupines have to be the most bugged npcs for animations ever.

However, this does prove that they can work and that the animations exist in the game's structures.

So that means they can infact be fixed. *cough* hint *cough*

I saw headbutt recently too, it was against a level 40 lupine, I just kept it on grab hand for the hell of it and it headbutted me. It looked so cool.
#36300224882 04/26/2007 09:50:24 Re:Lupine Animation i have never seen...
My all time favourite Lupine special move is... I HAVE NO IDEA *CENSORED* THAT WAS. It looked like Maki-Otoshi but it was different and way cooler. I only saw that one once. I wanna have the lupine style combat and abillities, I wanna see it again!
#36300266280 06/21/2007 16:35:56 Re:Lupine Animation i have never seen...

I actually think your wrong there, this isnt the "flying headbutt"move the lupines have but rather just a finnisher. It not actually a "headbutt" as such. but more a "im gonna rip out your throat with my teeth". >< They jump and their heads move side to side (like they're chewing) untill the opponent drops to the floor and they get off.

I did the very same mission, you are asked to contain lupines in the merovingian rank. He gives you some lupines yourself to combat. I disguised and sat (casually) taking pictures. I happened to get quite a few of these pictures as you can imagine because the lupines where fighting each other.

Stage One - Pounce on victim.

Stage two - Bite neck

Stage Three - Let victim drop dead.

As you can see its a finnishing move, the opponent doesnt get up after that....would you? >.<

#36300266490 06/21/2007 22:52:34 Re:Lupine Animation i have never seen...
Maybe Rare could put up some pics of all the lupine ability moves? That would rock. There's one I wanna see again.

There's an actual ability called Flying Headbutt they use. And by the way, if you're on recursion, contact me. I have something for you to see.

They also have an ability called "Long Arm Throw" or sth like that. Plus they seem to have a third ability as well. rarbit, can you tell us the truth about their abilities? I wanna knowwwww
#36300272453 07/01/2007 06:26:34 Re:Lupine Animation i have never seen...
Too bad their animations still fail.  I've seen the Pounce one work sometimes, and the "Grab Throw" or whatever it's called where they pick you up like a WWE wrestler.  More often than not, though, those animations don't play at all, or play incorrectly.
#36300289327 07/23/2007 05:40:09 Re:Lupine Animation i have never seen...
Why can't we have a lupine master tree? Now we have the animations and they are built already into the combat system so they would not need balancing so why not? OI dev people? why? eh?


P.S. <3 j00 devs

*sheds a silent tear for broken animations and lack of animator*

During halloween when the female lupine disguises are out, I know you fight with lupine moves while wearing it! SMILEY Although I don't think I've ever done that jump and claw kind of move before, but I think that is some kind of ability and not a normal fight move SMILEY

#36300290492 07/24/2007 15:47:27 Re:Lupine Animation i have never seen...

I've been doing a new move while fighting spawn. Suddenly, with no effort to do so on my part, I roll out. Have done that twice in the same fight once. When it happens I go "whoa, what was that and why am I rolling out?"

Rarebit, I know this is not where we ask questions, but please, where did that move come from?

#36300290834 07/25/2007 02:22:33 Re:Lupine Animation i have never seen...
Indeed, one of the devs should clear this up, with picture evidence, of course.
#36300291539 07/25/2007 20:47:56 Re:Lupine Animation i have never seen...
As a player of two Exilic characters (well, one of them is a run of the mill Exile, the other is... considerably more dangerous), I'd like to see some Exile-type ability trees to help enhance one's RP, but I guess that isn't going to happen, I'm afraid...
#36300291743 07/26/2007 03:02:12 Re:Lupine Animation i have never seen...
Weren't the Lupine and Blood Drinker animations going to be used for the org abils.
