I am just asking if an effect(like a shockwave) should occur whenever you land on the floor, to make it look visually better.

Hope I made it better to understand now.

    Isnt it weird that people can use MAGIC? huh, its not real.
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    the idea of being able to fall from great heights etc is nice i like it i would hate having to push the down key to descend from being at the max height especially on a world questing

    Granted the wings do give a small flap when you land, I've also seen my Sky Manta stay with me and dive while I drop with my Barb. Don't have a human to 30 yet, so couldn't say there.

    I've also seen what you say that there is nothing supporting the character and they just drop. I think it's just a programming thing, and in that, will probably not be changed.

    Make it like that Bliz game, and we all die horribly at impact, and have to run as a ghost back to our corpse. And remove double jump too, and how high we can jump, lets make PW non unique.
    I have no use for signatures... hypocrisy aside xD

    That makes this a lot more clear for me. The shockwave would be a cool effect, however that would be a lot of programming for a Visual that has no gaming reference (Damage, effect on surrounding, etc...)

    While it is a great idea, I somehow doubt that anything that gratuitous would be implemented. b:pleased

    so far as i know, the only one who has any signs of impact on landing are elves...you might think they would land lightly, but on landing, the make a loud THUD sound! ^_^ really silly. i love my cleric and archer, but i would give a lot to remove that stupid sound effect.

    something else i have been told of, but not noticed with others really, is that when one cancels flight-whatever you are flying on- only you see yourself going down with your aerogear. others watching you see you running in midair as you are falling....is that true? if so, its a copout on the devs part...be nice to watch elves diving down, untamed's eagles, etc, stooping and all.

    Yep, thats true. When you tilt when flying with the WASD keys you're the only one who sees it and the same with the animation when you deploy your aerogear.

    I never realized this issue until trying to film for Darknesz. The original shot around 0:45 was supposed to be him and his dragon landing properly - until it dawned on me he was the only one who could see that. For me it was an air-walk/plummet out of the sky... not nearly as cinematic.
    b:chuckle

    A very low priority for the devs I would imagine, but it'd be nice if they could adjust this so what we see of our aero is visible to everyone else as well.
