Short Cinematic Before Tower
« on: December 24, 2016, 06:36:49 PM »
I'm talking brief here.
Instead of going to the tower in a blink of an eye when we tower, why not have a short clip showing what killed us?
Or at least a little fade out from death and fade into to the tower. 
I hate jump-scares.

{Edit} I liked the old clipboard better...    :old:

Mine would be very repetitive...   I should be the official target drone.

I liked the dog laughing at you when missing the ducks on Duck Hunt from arcade and original NES. Hitech version can be the sheep.

An animated clip of laughing sheep sitting on chairs watching news reels of a crashing plane that symbolizes a player's death in the game.

For those landing successfully, animated clip of sheep giving a hand salute.

For those landing victories, animated clip of sheep handing you a beer and female sheep smiling in your direction.

A cool guncam footage of your killer would be neat.. maybe a camera angle from the nose of the plane.

Of a good view from outside to show off some of our cool skins in action.

Possible being able to interract with it like panning and zooming.

I am not a code master.. maybe this is just to taxing on the platform we have.

A short maybe 15 second clip?

Long as it would be skippable, sounds just swell.

Along this line of thinking, if I'm killed in plane, I'd like my point of view to be changed to external, with view locked onto my plane for a few seconds - just long enough to watch it crash or watch it's pieces flutter down, maybe even see my killer zoom past - then a rapid fade to black, then fade from black back in the tower.   The way it is now is kind of jarring.
