    Yeah, seriously GM's I'd kinda like to hear the logic behind this one? My poor cleric looks like a **** humming bird now, and it's out of sync with the bobbing. She looks almost like if she flapped any harder she'd start losing feathers and/or her heart would explode. Can you change it back plz?

    Edit:
    Also, the mantas are kinda making me a little motion sick

    YOU WILL FLAP THEM WINGS FAST EVEN IF YOUR HEART EXPLODES JUST LIKE HOW YOU MUST RUN CONTINUOUSLY SOLDIER! THERE IS NO TIME TO SLACK THE WRAITHS ARE PERIODICALLY GATHERING AT EVERY VILLAGE! (except for hidden orchid)

    edit: maybe they can change it all back except for bloodmist, they actually look like bats now

    ROFL! Check out embrace (intimate).. it's messed up there too. Talk about getting b:beatenup


    Edit: It apears that in the embrace (kiss, intimate, w/e) the male's animation speed is right.. but the female's is doubled (twice as fast).

    Only looks bad for the people with **** computers I guess. It looks awesome to me. That slow flapping was boring as hell and made it look as if you are going SLOW.

    I really hope they don't change it.

    We realize there has been a change to the speed at which wings/flying mounts animate and will report it to the development team.

    Please don't change it back. =/ With this increased flapping it gives an illusion of speed. If you change it then itll will be obvious why.

    I don't understand why theres so much bad feelings towards this. I tried flying on my Priest wings and on a stingray. It looks more natural.

    I actually enjoy flying back and forth to places now.

    When I first logged in I thought it was an addition. Nothing looks wrong with it to me. Then I got onto the forums and saw the 50 million "Omfg wings are bugged" posts.

    It doesn't bother me in the slightest, but since it's now there... wish all the extra flapping means we fly faster. b:chuckle

    wings beating this fast look STUPID!

    the natural-looking pumps of the wings are gone and because the toon still bobs up and down at the old wing speed beat she looks like she has hiccups!!

    Of all the things to change why change one of the best moving-graphics in the game?

    NOT impressed!

    This is one bug I will rejoyce when the fix goes in. Right now I have to stay out of towns due to others wings as well as not fly on my own bird.

    Seeing them move so fast literly gives me motion sickness. I am starting to think I may have to stay out of game till they fix this. b:sadb:surrender

    Has anyone thought to just turn down the effects settings? I haven't been home yet to play but I watched the video of it and had a good laugh.

    Try going to the settings menu > UI > and lowering the effects settings to see what happens.

    'scuse me while I go hurl.

    My suggestion to you all: take a gravol or some motion sickness meds before you play, may be a while before they fix this bug. :(

    For some of us the new wing speed doesn't matter but for others it may cause a real problem or even Epilepsy or seizures...so lets hope this is corrected before this something serious occurs to anyone...*personally gives me a big headache" I leave myself on map mode now instead.

    I know there's a graphic glitch that can make your flying device invisible. I've done it twice by accident, but somehow I just can't do it on purpose >.<

    I was AFK Auto-pathing to Thousand Streams to use the Forges for a wing upgrade.. I thought I was imagining things considering where I was headed, asked my most wonderful faction on Team speak and they told me i'm not imagining things o_O

    The Wings Of Daedalus are metallic in appearance and look kind of heavy, little awkward there. And since I was heading there to widget the wings it was like "They're going faster before I even upgraded them!..but i'm not.."

    Yeah it looks OK with certain things like the normal elf wings and the eagle wings but look at bat wings and you're having a seizure. Plus it doesn't fit with the up/down character idle movement at all anymore.. I can't say I like this, and it's not because I have a slow PC at all. It's just too fast for wings so big

    OMG! Its the end of the world....our fly mounts have an animation bug!!!

    Kudos to those who saw the humour in the bug.

    I feel really sad for those who are worked up over it. b:chuckle

    For me, its a bug, it doesn't affect my gameplay.......I would rather the devs concentrate on more important bugs.

    For those who complain so much, how do you expect the gms to take your complaints seriously when you complain about such insignificant issues? b:lipcurl
