SCR: standard code rant.
SCR does not apply.
Much like the Powerslide ability over rules the animation for ninja run a power that does nothing but animate with the same priority of Ninja Run would have the desired effect.
yep. i was just letting him know what it meant.
I'd love to see more run options. Given its quite an ever present part of the character, more run animations would be a really good thing, IMO.
No, BaBs, stop giving me evils...Put those gauntlets away, big guy, I have a railcannon y'know!

You know, I heard a completely unconfirmed rumour (as in, it's possible someone made it up) that Going Rogue will feature a few "movement stances" in the spirit of Ninja Run, but without any actual power benefits, so you can choose how you walk. As this would be the ideal solution, I still support this idea.

What's in the Complete Collection Item Pack? The Complete Collection Item Pack is included as part of the City of Heroes Going Rogue: Complete Collection, with both digital and boxed versions (available in North America only), and includes: Alpha and Omega themed costumed sets Alpha- and Omega-themed auras Four stance emotes The Shadowy Presence invisibility power |

Long ago, BABs (and I know it was him) spoke about adding different running styles to the game and explained how that wasn't likely, but he could instead add what I believe he described as "mood" emotes that would have us assume some of those particular stances while we waited for our team-mates to arrive at the mission. That is, to the best of my memory from several years ago. I believe those, in part or in full, turned into the /waiting and /sleep emotes.|

Now... Would the "stance emotes" be just more idle animation emotes? To be honest, with that wording and sales pitch, they probably are. Different movement styles, like Ultra Mode, is something that would be far, FAR too big to retain to just a "complete edition" of the game, which is essentially a booster pack to an expansion pack. I COULD see such a thing as part of the actual expansion, but it isn't.
Furthermore, "stance emotes" implies emotes, as in /em something. This is not animation customization. At a stretch, it's a derivative of /em flypose. It makes much more sense to put four new emotes, two new auras that managed to leak on Test at one point, and an exotic tempermanent power in what is essentially just one more Booster Pack not too dissimilar from Valkyrie or Good vs. Evil.
This actually kind of disappoints me, as misinterpreting the rumour gave me much more hope than reading the promised feature. I'll certainly do a happy dance if it does end up being MOVEMENT stances, but at this point, I doubt they will be.

Yeah, that rumor was a bit of a bummer.

I won't pester you any further on it. |
This is an excerpt from a PM conversation I had with BaBs a while back.
I can't find the rest of it, but it seems to say that doing what you are suggesting with the Ninja Run animation is not a trivial thing to do, because it doesn't work like we think.
And since Ninja Run is an animation instead of just a stance it will be a LOT harder to do than what I was suggesting in my PM.
So, take that for what you will. I'd say it probably means your Ninja Run idea is never going to happen.

Well I was going to post this in dev. forum, but they won't let anyone add a thread there.
I would like to suggest that the devs grant us the option to have the ninja run graphic on all the time, but no effect unless we activate the power. I love the look, but it drains a lot and turns off every time I activate the super leap or super speed powers.
So who here wants the ninja run animation on all the time?
