Improvement: "Marching" walk animation.

[NapalmEnima]

Strictly for in-game movie staging/FRAPS/etc:

Let players toggle a "marching" walk style. While marching, their weapons would either be holstered or held across their chest (not at the ready). It'd also be spiffy it they could somehow synchronize their marching/saluting/etc with other nearby players.

And each empire should have a different marching style:

TR: Goose stepping (or some slightly less offensive variant... some totalitarian government-inspired thing)
NC: Red-neck stompity-stomp line dance thing. Yee freakin ha! Hey ya'll, watch this!
VS: Assume parade rest and the slow-ass anti-grav in their boots carries them forward at walking speed while they "stand" absolutely still.

When the VS crouch while marching, we should look like this.

Can't we just have a normal walk with the weapon held to my chest animation first? I'm not gonna be kicking my legs over my head with each step while on patrol.

Bison is obv TR...

This would be pretty neat

TR should kick their legs up awkwardly high as well while walking.

I think this was intended to be in addition to that.

Would there be a more tempting target in the whole gaming world than a group of goose-stepping, line-dancing, or sashaying enemies?

That would be more of a wrath-magnet than a BFR.

It would look cool kinda like syncing a band when playing in LOTRO. Maybe in the cash shop for leaders.

[Talek Krell]

Hmm, purchaseable animations.
There's some potential in that idea...
