I said the same thing when dual weapons was previewed, and the devs suprised me. I think they will look better when we get to use them.

The kick version of it is the same. Fairly "meh" on the new fist animations, but again, have to wait and see how some of them start to flow together.
Hmm, I loved the kicks, but I guess I'll think about switching them for a bit xP
Maybe Ill skip CAK then..was thinking of respecing that in and taking out storm kick (the first tier attack) Although the animation for CAK is cool, how effective is it?

I said it in another thread but Eagle's Claw got the shaft and the uppercut is wasted on cobra strike. Disappointing since Super Strength's variations look good.
Why does everyone hate CAK? its one of the best DPA attacks in the set, and it looks deadly.

The extra step at the end of it bugs me, throws off the animation imo.

I thought Martial Arts was getting a new alternate punch animation for EVERY kick attack it has now.
Is this not true?
It looks like the attacks which didn't get new animations were crane kick and dragon's tail. Dragon's tail I can understand, somewhat, but not sure why eagle's didn't get one. Perhaps these are just the ones that they had done in time for comic con?
And I hate CAK because I think the animation looks dumb as heck. To me, it looks jerky, awkward, and out of sync with the rest of the set. Lose the odd half-kick at the beginning of the animation and just have the character do a straight dropping kick like the second half of the current animation and it'd be a lot more tolerable, imo.

Did Thunder AND Storm kick get an alternate?
Man, the best new animation is that uppercut. Wish it had gone to Crane Kick, I can envision that causing knockback.

I love CAK personally, it makes the set for me.

Exactly. I really hope the dev's shuffle some of these around in closed Beta.
Also, why no animation for Dragon's Tail? A spinning lariat ala Zangief and Haggar would've been PERFECT here...trimmed for appropriate animation time of course.
I mean three of the most distinguishing moves from the MA set are Crane Kick, Dragon's Tail, and Eagle's Claw and only one gets a new animation (which is arguably lame)?
Does Thunder and Storm kick each get alternate animations?

[/ QUOTE ]Because it looks fugly? It just takes away from the whole flow of the set. I purposely skip the power because it doesnt flow good with the attack chain. Now I might get it if the new animation gets changed to something better. Right now I am extremely underwhelmed at the MA and SS animations. The only one I like is the ground pound change for foot stomp.
