Ghouls animations as EMOTES!

Think about how when you went into the Underground for the first time, and saw your first spawn of Ghouls, shaking their fists and convulsing like crazed drug addicts, looking oh-so-pissed off at everything. Remember that? That needs to be an emote or two. Like how we have /e growl and /e roar. Except those pale in comparison to this. Think of how that would look on a Huge character model. Bad-***, right?

That and the animation for their defeats. Who wouldn't want to throw a tantrum on the floor?

Please? :D

As an addendum... How about customizable death emotes?

I'd love to have my power armor and android characters use the Praetorian Clockwork sparkdeath emote when they get beaten.

That's an awesome idea, but lets not get ahead of ourselves. it follows suit with customization as much as we already have, but that's opening up more and more mechanics to the user interface, which im sure isn't high up on dev priority. but if they're still making emotes, and if they plan on getting old npc costumes into the editor, then they can throw some already-made animations in as emotes while they're at it :P

What Steampunkette mentions remembers me that is time for new death animations for our characters. Something along some great ideas mentioned on this forum that will give more freshness to our game. The Ghoul death animations will be great and better to our zombie characters.

I'd love to have the ghoul death emote, it always reminds me of Gollum being dragged along the rope in the second Lord of the Rings movie.

The emote would be perfect for when someone asks you to go in or tank, or for a speed boost, or anything else.

"Get it off us! It burns us!"

I like that one too, it reminds me of my oldest when she threw a tantrum as a toddler.

I like these ideas. We'd have to have a protracted, staggering, over-the-top death scene customizable death emote as well. Sure, the animation would run long but it would be worth it ( ' :
