So, who has been feeding the Nightmares after midnight?

The textures on them still look really crisp. If it was a bug that they are this fantastically huge, I would have expected the textures to look all smeared looking like what typically happens when you zoom up really close to an object.

Just leaves me curious.
Ruularu is *much* bigger than these guys.

Edit:


Note the biggest stuff we *can* target is about the same size. (We target Hami's nucleus, not the whole gel "bubble.") We're looking at them and going "cool" but, size wise, they're... what, somewhere between Jack and Eochai there, maybe? *checks pics* OK, bit bigger, I think.

really need some shots that are not "OMG, look up!" or at a distance - something that can give us a head height.

What would really be cool is if the devs would right a script that summons one of the Giant Nightmares and smooshes the RMT spammer when they ban them.

Can we get the Nightmares back to the usual size? You can't see half of them when they spawn; they aren't even standing on the ground when they appear; they clip all over - sometimes half in the ground etc; they look like they should be a balloon in a Macy's Halloween parade. Yeah, it isn't looking good.

Fine with me but after the Nightmare kills the Spammer it should do a little dance over the corpse. Like this

Added fun, their defeat animation seems a bit glitchy at this new size. So far I've only seen them the one time during a PI invasion, and usually they just kind of slump over when defeated. However, there was one that was doing handstands on the Portal Corp building, and another near the end that decided to baseball slide across the parking lot.

Funny as heck, in my opinion.

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!

These guys appeared in a zombie fight by Posi in Steel last night. They were as tall as the statue! It was OMG, hilarious, and WTH all at once. I love them!

As for their size, I was able to juuust clear one with an SO slotted Super Jump, so they're at least.... 160 feet tall.

=D

Actullally, Rularuu is kinda small - he's a mad god who devours dimensions, but he's shorter than most of the skyscrapers.
If we ever get to fight him, he should take advantage of the height of the Shadow Shard zones, and reach all the way from the bottom to the top, which would make him over 2 miles tall.
