Small, but maybe interesting - especially as it seems the lead animator is involved rather than Sexy Jay - so that might mean some sort of animated tails are being worked on - maybe even part of the mutant booster pack?

First they made it so you could have custom ears and glasses, now belts with tails... is this all some giant hint for catgirls to put more clothes on?


Having Vengeance and Fallout slotted for recharge means never having to say you're sorry.

Yeah, coming from the lead animator, that's fantastic news!

I don't have a single character with a tail, and don't think I ever will. This is, however, some of the best costume news we have heard in quite a while. Spiffy!

A follow-up to the suggestion it might be for animated tails because he's doing it rather than Sexy Jay:

I'm not sure if that's a denial

Well even if it's not animated tails just being able to have both a belt and a tail would be nice.

There are a ton of costume items I would NEVER use, that dosen't mean I don't like seeing them on other people's creations. Animated tails would be great, and perhaps that tech could lead to other things I may would use.

I am still looking forward to the hinted at news of the week.

One possibility might be moving tentacles as some sort of extra arm options - or shoulder, neck and head options too.

I have a couple characters with tails who would be very happy to have a belt option. This is good news. Animated tails would definitely be a terrific bonus but not essential.

Don't take about animated costume parts when GG lurks this section of the forums, you'll get her started

Very interesting. We aslo know that Demons in GR have moving tails... so we might not be far from having moving tails for our characters indeed.

I'm not putting any hopes on animated tails but I would love to have a belt on my one tailed character.

If they are going to animate tails I hope they don't prohibit capes with them. My tank's scarf and tail is her trademark.

It's somewhere in the informations from Hero Con. Hopefully, someone will remember exactly where... might have been in an interview on the Cape Radio too.

I'm afraid you are going to be a bit out of luck on this part. It's been made clear that the devs are trying to stick to a one-animated costume part per avatar system. This is often given as the reason on why there's no animated hair available to players. Yes, Ghost Widow has animated hair, but her hair is actually a cape moved up and fitted to the top of her head, similar to how Trench-coats, tail-coats, and waist-capes are capes that have been moved down to trigger their attachment point at a different location.

If BaB's and Jay are working on animated tails, I suspect they are waiting for one of the coders working on Going Rogue to become available and implement a similar trigger that the existing capes / trenchcoats use.

There's also a possibility that animated tails could be moved into Back Detail.

Forget that, becuase I want a tail and wings. I'm pretty sure many players would/ do.
