customised excecutions!

[timthelegend93]

ok guys hear me out. me and a few of my friends were discussing how cool it would be if you had custom excecutions, and a format similar to the tony hawks trick maker. what you would do is choose part of the body you wanted to move on the character your playing as, then choose what you would do with that body part, such as rip the opponants arm off, or even do a little taunt before crushing your opponants head, etc.

if you want to see how i really imagine it to be, the closest bet is downloading the trial of this small game called toribash, only unlike that, gears of war would just be finishing off your enemy rather than fighting it.

i know its likely it may slow down the speed of the game/ make it laggier/take longer to get into a game, but im sure a big company like epic can find a way to counter this, and what with technology getting better, by the time gears of war 3 comes out, this may no long be a problem.

i love this kind of thing as customising takes gaming to the next level!
thanks for your time

Sounds like a sweet idea but I still can't exactly imagine what you mean by it. If you can explain a bit more in depth or show a video or something that might help.

ok this is sorta how i picture the excecution creator to look like, sorry i couldnt find a video of it

as you can see there is a timeline structure to it, to put what you do next. Obviously putting a load of movements together like this thing is a bit boring so id imagine the executions to play a bit like this

allowing perhaps more skilled players to do this

i think perhaps if they found a good median between both tony hawks create a trick, and toribash (the fighting game) it could turn out just right.

if your interested heres the download for the game

although its a trial it allows you to do pretty much everything besides play online

Oh see now it makes more sense. Though it seems like something they would have to add in Gears of War 3 if there will be one. Epic has enough things that they need to work on for GoW2 before they work on something like this.

i guess, what with the many problems with the multiplayer . but i can dream, right?

that would be cool, yet it would face many hurdles into making those animations
just as good as an pre defined animated sequence/fixed setting..
me would think..

yet it would be cool.

I had this idea a while back. A few years ago I thought this feature would be cool in WWE games for creating a finisher. I support this idea.
