Yeah, it kinda sucks. The same thing happened with the Clockwork costume.

Forcing player animations was probably a lot easier then adding more animations to the model.

I didn't know the Clockwork had the same issue. I didn't get mine until PAXEast, so maybe they were fixed by then.|

It's STILL crazy fun to toggle on during a Ghoul mission and watch your team try to kill you. I wonder how many /bug reports it has spawned...
Stay Gold, Paragon. Stay Gold.

Yeah, some funny folks wear the enemy Halloween costume during missions with those baddies, and upon occasion I will click on them to target them if the mission gets tense.
I sometimes get spooked by the potted plants when I am in a DE mission where they are providing a Robust Challenge. You never know about those plants...
What ALWAYS gets my attention is when someone brings along their Redcap Pet... had too many ambushes by those swine not to be a tad jumpy when I see one amble up... 
"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"
"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."
I've got a stalker who's supposed to be a Nemesis automaton, and one of his outfits looks a lot like a Nemesis Army uniform. One regular team mate in particular hates it when I wear that outfit on Nemesis missions because he routinely tries to target me.

LOL watching my partner run up to a potted plant to attack it during a DE mission is still one of my favorite memories...|

And yeah, he and I have a pair of Croatoan fae characters and we brought our Redcaps and blue wisps on the KHTF. In the mission in the caves that are flooded with Redcaps, there was much cursing of us. Kudos that no one asked us to dismiss them though, lol.
I'm so bummed. Last night I toggled on the Ghoul costume I got from SDCC and... I just stood there. Sure I looked like a ghoul, but I didn't act like a ghoul.
When we first got these, if you toggled the power on, you not only looked like a ghoul, you also ran like one and growled/snarled like one. It was VERY cool. The downside was that the costume didn't follow any of your attack animations, and I guess that's why they fixed it.
I wish they hadn't though - running around freaking out like a berserker zombie more than made up for the fact that I didn't raise my arms when I used Fire Blast. Ah, well.
