Title: Longbow? Or Special-bow?
Post by: Black Wind on April 17, 2011, 06:15:19 am
The longbow is now officially retarded-looking.

It looks huge when it is on your back, but scales similar size to a hunting bow when held.... wtf is with that? Yeah. Good job for the English! You invented a bow made to kill wild-pigs.

"Make the long-bow shorter." Seriously guys... one would think a 'long'bow should indeed be 'long'.

Peace out G's, keep it pimpin'

All bows were rescaled to look better with the new attack animations. It is a pity though that the warbow and longbow look stunted.

You are correct my fellow PK member. A shortened long bow is actually a bow by definition.

Yeah what in the world is up with that. The longbow and warbow look pointlessly stupid with their new size. I'm glad somebody is bringing this up.

Hopefully there is a way to fix the animation or something, but honestly I'm betting it's never gonna get fixed. Sad face.

Longbow really does look silly. If its to fit the new animation then fair enough, just another reason to never use one.

The new archery animations look silly

(click to show/hide)

But it's even worse for big bows, so they got resized.

IMO the new animation looks 10 times better than the old one. xD

(incoming exaggeration) but I wasn't a fan of  machine gun wizard-archers with armor piercing rounds.... pulling arrows out of the air, knocking and releasing... shooting 40 arrows a minute. So that's probably why it's better to me.



The long bow changing sizes from when it's on your back and in your hands is silly though lol

On the other hand, it's funny how the hunting and short bow looks bloody enormous.

I noticed this also, but thought nothing of it. They should put it back to its normal size. >:(

Same thing with the war bow, I yelled at Shik when the patch first came out months ago.

Hopefully she found the time to actually fix it.

Geoff the clever advised me to avoid bows that look retarded.

take the longbow back to the nords size so it doesn´t look enourmous on your back and then if you hold it you think wtf?????
a longbow should be long so don´t try to my old friend it.
