Default Ooze Movement Animation :(

Ok I am getting GWEN... I have all the prior GW...

The animation for the new OOZES look really odd...

The flipping gymnastics acrobat oozes looks so wrong... Oozes should
creep and jiggle... not flip and wiggle...

Am I the only one who thinks the oozes look really out of place and wrong
when they move around flipping like acrobats?!?

I agree to Prowlinger.

We will be able to see tomorrow. Maybe this Ooze splits in multiple tiny Oozes when you kill it. Except you shock frost and then put it into a microwave!

Last time I saw magical oozes moving around in real life they looked and moved roughly the same as they do in GW:EN...

I just think jellies and oozes should not flip end over end to move... just looks wrong...

Like saying a snake hops everywhere instead of slithers...

Same effect... Looks silly.

What are you basing that on, the giant slithering piles of ooze you encounter in real life? Oh wait...

They are kinda silly looking... but in a fun way. Made me smile when I saw them.

Reminds me of... nm, this isn't an adult site.

Actually, GW:EN is a level 20 expansion.
Creatures thee should be evoled.

Oozes are not like the old RPG slimes. They are more like jellyfish.
That way is better to move, so they evolved that way.

Seriously, who wants oozes that creep around slowly? It'd just be a huge nuking target.

Well, actually, on kind of snake, the sidewinder, does move by sort hoppin. It may look a bit silly (especially since it moves sideways), but it goes much faster than most snakes.

Why should oozes have to move in the slowest way possible just because they're slimy and gooey? Flipping like they is much faster, and besides, I like the way it looks.

ha. They do a simple novel thing where they have 2 bloody mobs in town and the first thing that comes to some people's mind is to find something to complain about.

Seriously, if I were a developer at anet, I wouldn't have been able to read these forums without knocking myself unconscious by banging my head against the keyboard.

...sidewinders dont HOP, they go sideways granted and no i dont think that looks stupid.

whats wrong with saying that ooze should ooze? you would all be whining if chars "glided" instead of walked/ran i mean why bother with animating anything correctly at all following that logic.
