cliff racer idea

[Arbiter]

That could cause complications. What if you accdently throw item on the table and sitting NPC somehow responds to it as an attack?

[Ixidors Bane]

I'm pretty sure that's why Beth did it that way, to avoid all those random and uncertain complications. And truthfully, I'm all for that. I don't think we should worry about physics based damage ourselves. I'm sure that some super talented modders out there will find a way to incorporate it into the game, but we should focus more towards what we already have, and expand on that. :goodjob:

[Arbiter]

Yeah.

Making his slow, agonizing way back to safety, a rock hit him on the top of his head. Three more hit him before he noticed and looked up. Killer harmless rock dropping cliff racers!!

Joking aside, I'm sure that you can use a script that will hurt you when the rock hits you at a certain speed. Somebody will probably mod that in sooner or later.

lol nice little story.

[Arbiter]

Lots of work for possible troubles.
Weight it.

whatever the case, I think we should have different breeds of cliffracer, most harmless, and some annoying... and maybe one strain... deadly

[Arbiter]

So, they are in?

ok... if we super minimize the population...
harmless/small cliffracer mini species will be like 10
common, annyoing cliffracer will be like 4
old, powerful, predatory will be like 1

but it all depends on territory and region
because cliffracers fullfill the entire avian niche in the Vvardenfell ecosystem... they have a lot of diversitizing to be done...
small ones can be like bats, hunting bug and eating from... probably all over the place
the TES3 kind will have a smaller population now... they will be pesky and when there are 3 or more they will attack... but not normally unless you attack them....
the old condor-liek one will fill the niche of giant eagle/condor... big predator/scavenger.... this guy could kill you in a few pecks... like a big pteradactyl


also... i hope the planned inclusion of cliffracer roosts will give you guys all extreme evil pleasure... I can just imagine you guys sneaking up with you thief-character and stealing the eggs or killing hatchling cliff-racers just for the evil pleasure :chaos:

[Arbiter]

They'll have eggs? Hmmmm..... [Alredy plotting and scheming.]
How about bats? Will they be in?

[KuKulzA]

i don't know... if you look through TES3 concept art... there ARE what APPEARS to be bats... but I don't think they ended up to be planned to be in Vvardenfell... so fo rnow the answer is no...
