Alternative view for flyers in character menus

73 votes

With more and more flyers coming to PoT through both base game and mods, there’s been one small factor that I think could use some minor QoL changes.

Currently in character screen, flyers will stand idle on the ground while players select skins. However, that does also mean that wings for the most part are folded and can be difficult to see the skin’s full extent. This isn’t too bad on something like thalasso, but more prominent in hatz and likely other future flyers.

As such, I think that flyers should have the option of selecting an alternate view in the character screen of said character in a looping flight/glide animation. That way, players can get a better view of the wings and customise their skins easier.

id really like this to be added to the game. just the other day i wasted some marks on the Firebird skin on rhamp only to realize that the Dazzle skin has these really cool eyespots on the underside of its wings.
I had no idea! you cant see that AT ALL from the character menu. the underside of its wings could literally be a png of Matt's face and youd be none the wiser

i had to go onto a deathmatch community server and equip the skin to actually see the full pattern. i shouldnt have to do that.
a simple fix could just have the flyers have their wings spread in the menu instead of just standing there. like the threat display for hatz and thal, or the ? one for rhamp, just permanently standing like that
