Hey, all! It's Sunday night, so the cosmetics dev team is enjoying their weekend. I'm going to have them take a look at this tomorrow to investigate when we're at work.

If this is an issue (even though OP says you can actually shoot before the anim "completes"), please trust us that it was unintentional and we'll try to fix it. We never intend to make things pay-to-lose or pay-to-win.

If it's not actually an issue after we investigate (some of you below have pointed out the videos aren't side-by-side, so some of this might just be "feel"), thanks for still reporting it. We make these skins for all of you and we honestly do appreciate bug reports, general feedback, and "feel" type feedback we get. This is why custom anims are very tricky--it can be the same exact timing but sometimes "feel" slower, or even "feel" faster. We test extensively for this, but sometimes we will screw it up. Not saying we did here YET (still gotta look at this with the team)!

Sorry, I should've clarified: new reload animations.

I was basically waiting for Singularity since release because it's the only Phantom skin with a different reload animation. Even still, that's a bit of a stretch cause the movement of removing the magazine isn't different, but the cocking animation changed at least.

Ah! Well the orb mechanism powers up and down on reload, so it's a different kind of reload animation/effect!

ah. Hand animation is the distinction I was looking for.

I think that was a good choice. Although naturally not everyone will agree.

Since you worked with the animation team, does the front of the Bucky fade to a transparent panel like it does with the Sheriff? It unfortunately goes off-screen, so I can't tell if that detail made it in.

It does! You can kind of see it and you can definitely hear it!

Please continue trying different things! I'm a fan of new hand animations, but I love that you're trying different ideas of what a skin set should be.

Also more Frenzy love! Its been underappreciated thus far and there haven't been many great skins for it outside of Glitchpop.

Haha! I had people saying "no more Frenzy skins" after we did Elderflame and Glitchpop!

Sensation has a Frenzy skin. :)

Default reload animation? Will that be fixed?

It's not a bug. There are animations on this gun through the spinning turbines and the orb mechanism. We want to try different ways to animate guns since some players want hand animation change (like with Reaver) but others want something that's more based on the gun itself.

There are plenty of animations. The reactors spinning, side panels opening up when you pull the gun out, etc. There's just no reload animation.

The orb pulses on reload. We tried something different with this skin with animations since not everyone wants new hand animations for a skin.

Yeah I was about to say

Aesthetics are cool, sounds are cool...no new anims? byeee

It has animated moving parts on the inside (turbines and the mechanism holding the orb).

Can you confirm or deny this was made in partnership w Destiny

No partnerships involved at all with anyone.

Hope you all end up loving the set, especially if you're into sci-fi! This is my favorite set the team has released so far (with the Reaver re-release coming close second).

Wow, thank you so much for replying!! That's reassuring to hear about the salary, would definitely help convince my parents of the career choice haha. I've been looking through the university programs and believe that the game design intern might best fit my field and interests. I look forward to applying and hopefully working with you this upcoming summer :)

Good luck! My parents were surprised about my career choice too, but very supportive. I decided to quit being an attorney to work in games, so it was a big change for me (and them).

Hi there Preeti! I’m currently studying computer science. Would a game design intern fit under that field of study? I’m currently applying to different places because you know, I needa make a living, but I would choose working on games in a heartbeat over any price companies would offer. If there are any positions in which computer science would fit in I would love to apply! :D

Oh we have engineering roles, which I believe Computer Science fits into!

Also you can totally make a living in games too! Riot pays a very competitive salary because we want to hire the best game devs and because cost of living is high out here.

I am loving the reaver collection so much I bought the whole pack. The animation is awesome. My one pain point if I may on the knife animation is no one else can see it. My friends and I both have it and upgraded with radiant. If you look at the knife when the other person is holding it there is no purple mist at all it just looks like the standard version.

Ah, I get that. We do that for competitive integrity. We wouldn’t want an enemy to think you were holding an ability in your hand from far away. We never show any VFX in third person so it’s never pay to win.
