Feedback on New/Upgraded Bean

Feature Requests Avatars

I’ve been loving the New & Upgraded Bean, however I have some issues that I think need to be addressed, considering a lot of others I’ve talked to actually agree with me here.

  1. Make the Body bend LESS
    I’m fine with it bending, however it currently bends too much, it looks uncanny and not right, a little bit of bending is fine though.

  2. Change the walking & running animations (at least for VR)
    The walking and running animations look fine… for Screen Mode, on VR it looks awkward and silly (not the good kind of silly)
    Just give upgraded beans a new movement animation for VR users at least, the Classic Bean’s movement animation(s) looked fine on VR.

  3. Fix the hands (This is more of a bug report for both Upgraded Bean and FBA)
    There’s been a weird issue where both Upgraded Bean Avatars and Full Body Avatars have frozen hands when idle. The hands are supposed to move around with the idle animations, however instead they’re just kind of glued to the sides of the body.

I hope my feedback makes it to the developers, and I hope I was descriptive enough!

The avatar/design team (from what I know) has tried a few times to fix the bending issue. Although I do think it’s resolvable, perhaps a bit of realism could be kept in place. Besides, I can bend sideways and touch my leg, the new beans can touch the air that makes the leg intangible by bending as well.

The other two suggestions, I don’t see any problem with. My only personal pet peeve with the bodies is how small the hands are, but that might just be because I’m not used to the size difference.
