DHX has a good point. While the animations are really lacking right now, so are the sounds. The devs said the sounds are going to be put in as the testing continues...I hope the animations are too. I played around with other profs too, and they seem to have the animations messed up also. Considering all this, I'd say there's a good chance our animations will make it back in.

Fighting with the current animations is like having sex in only one position. Boring as Hell :/

I was thinking about this whilst posting somewhere else, part of the reason I fell in love with pikeman was for the animations whilst fighting. I believe that the way they are now, makes pikeman look graceful yet tough when fighting. I really would be very disappointed if they are left in the current state.

Yes I have considered this as well. It seems unlikely that the animations as it stands now are the final product. Its still alarming that they aren't there at all and we haven't really heard anything about this from a dev. Gunman, could you see what you can find out about this?

I noticed a while ago that with only a few exceptions, theres only ONE set of attack animations applied to ALL of our attacks! For example, Melee Hit and Improved Impale both look EXACTLY the same. Improved/Advanced versions still dont change the animations at all. This is highly disturbing to me, this is so far the only real complaint I've had about the CU
The exceptions: Leghit, Spin, and Lunge, all of which use their old animations.
And yeah, the new particle effects when you hit stuff are cool, but I want real attack animations too! Even if they just copy and paste the old ones to the new attacks, its a start!
Someone please tell me this is just temporary! I miss area2 already
