Yes, make it an alternative

Yes, make it an alternative to running as well, no perks or anything, just floating.

Yes, hovering makes so much sense when the wings are static. Oh, wait, no it doesn't.

You want hovering? Maybe you should flap more first.

Hover back into a Haven long

Hover back into a Haven long enough to sell me your spare Quicksilver Helm lol

@Rommil

That would make sense if someone with wings standing next to me would make me look cooler, but that's not the case. Hence why pretty girls have at least one ugly friend, or why people who are insecure about their weight would stand next to an obese person to look thinner.

I bet your heart was in the right place though =3

Btw, was gonna pm you about

Btw, was gonna pm you about this last time I saw you, but you logged off before I got to send it. I would suggest upgrading your quicksilver helm to 4*, as that would make the back part grey instead of red/brown. Would look better imo.

I also suggest giving me cr or ce to make me agree with you in your thread.

@ Tom-Awsm

I've been working on him for a while about that silver helm.
That's why this guy (me) rocks my 4* silver helm on my white tab. So smooth.

Shidara lifts off the ground and hovers gently in the air.

If /hover became available with wings accessory equipped, their value would rise tenfold.
But I gotta admit, hovering around would be freaking awesome.

Well

Well, then I would like to be able to use those pumpkin bombs I have in my armor too. You know, be able to do fireworks with them or something. It is also funny we have those vitakits but we aren't able to use them at all.

If OOO had to do special emotes for each accesory... it would take quite a while and much effort xP (And I would rather have content! Which they are making with missions, they said... )

Certain accessories should

Certain accessories should have specific emotes. Like puffing rings of smoke out of a pipe/dapper, sharpening parrying/side blades, and other stuff (That's all I got lol).

+1 ECHO AND -1 AUMIR

Thank you echo. Always nice to find the rare person who thinks outside of the box, and wants to go above and beyond to deliver an awesome experience. I have said it before, and i'll say it again, it really does shock me how many people are happy to simply accept the status-quo, not want anything better, not exercise any personal creativity. So many people are happy to live inside the box, and it blows my mind.

Obviously, new content should be the #1 agenda of spiral knights. But some accessory specific emotes could be done simultaneously, and i would argue SHOULD be done. Love teh idea of smoke rings. or /happy, clap, cheer should couse wolver tails to wag. (wings to flap) etc... It would do nothing but add to the augmented product the game gives us. it would make the game (on a very subtle level) a deeper, richer, and more complex experience.

+ wings cost millions of crowns, so it'd be nice to be able to do somethign special with them, from a purely selfish standpoint, lol.

It's not about just accepting

It's not about just accepting things and not /wanting/ anything more, it's about accepting realistic thresholds. Large content updates generally will always take precedence over tiny aesthetic touch-ups to current ingame items. Once an item's ingame, they rarely ever get changed much thereafter unless there's something that makes it need the change to some degree. Put it in suggestions and expect new acc's that get released to have more attributues, and maybe with that patch the older ones, but expecting a patch to augment current acc's is pretty unrealistic to say the least.

It's like sayin' someone is just "happy" living on the street and being malnourished because they've come to accept the fact that no one's gunna walk along and just give them a free house and years worth of food.

Sayin' that, if they did/ever do have associated emotes, that would be totally rad.

In the world of modern day MMOs, I highly doubt this is actually true for most companies lol

Wings cost millions because people like you think they're worth millions as is. As nothing more than a fancy bauble. Nothing wrong with that, but if you feel cheated, it's kinda your own fault. No need to try to make them better to validate what you payed for them. :|

Though I'd rather see more vanilla emotes than special ones for accessories anyway. Dance emote so we can have dance parties? Do want.

Modern MMOs love introducing as many new aesthetics and accessories, fashions and such as possible. Absolutely, all the time.
But stopping to go back and edit previous, currently in-place ones in a tiny, unimportant way? Naw.

...Especially when that "tiny" way is tiny for the player, and requires full new lines of coding and animations being created for it.

Also want.

I think the other actions

I think the other actions need animations before they worry about something stupid for such a small minority.
Just saying.

@Dirt

I disagree. In fact, all new content should require the player to buy wings... I wonder how that'd fly with the playerbase...

i have decided

i'm going to just take every comment in this thread as a dramatic and unequivical + 1...even + 2 for my idea.

thanks to all for all your support. thanks dirt. together, we can make this happen!!!!!
Triple O, your knights have spoken, time to implement /hover. if you want to try it on a limited basis to see how it works, feel free to allow only "rommil" the /hover option. i'll tell you how it goes :)
hooray for player feedback.
