Considering their take on Gollum, I'm guessing their Tom Bombadil game will have insanely gruesome take down execution animations.

They tried to properly model the scrote wrinkles and give it the soft body physics needed for the swinging and jiggle, but the performance loss was too great. This was the compromise they settled on.

Yes. Up until the point where I shone a flashlight on the car through the pitch blackness, I was convinced whatever I hit was a flattened hazard barrel, those ones with the blinking lights on top. I hit one years ago and it sounded exactly the same, with nearly the same effects.

If it makes you guys feel any better, my headlights had just about nothing to do with this incident. Given the amount of time I had to react from when I first came over the hill, it wouldn't have mattered if my headlights were completely off, I still wouldn't have made it around the obstacle; it was simply too big.

gently caress it. I'm going to close the thread because just like the last four threads I've posted in AI, I will spend three pages defending myself from swarms of attacking mouth breathers with this stupid 'holier-than-thou' attitude to driving. You all act like you've never perpetrated a minor traffic violation in your entire life.

there's a safety video they play at ups for drivers that includes footage from a brownie(ups truck) dashcam where they hit a deer at speed right as it leapt into the road and it just instantly flew apart into about 6 large chunks. It's gnarly

Kangaroos occupy that niche in Australia and rural vehicles often have those giant Mad Max bumpers called 'roo bars' for that reason. You even see them on otherwise unassuming Subarus. (Subaru is or was popular in rural Australia, something about the styling works when you're on dirt roads some days and going into town others)

Kangaroos live in anticipation of hurling themselves bodily into the nearest vehicle moving at high speed. They are dumb fuckers and being mostly dense muscle can utterly gently caress up the vehicle they choose to merge with the front of.

My mom covered an insurance claim for a gentleman who hit a moose at about 40mph between Eagle River and Chugiak. The bastard's legs went out from under it, it proceeded to smash the hood, smash the windshield, roll upward, smash the roof, the rear windshield, and the trunk lid. Fucker got up and wandered into the woods like it wasn't no thang, and the only reason the driver was able to get the police to believe him was the tracks leading away and tufts of hair in the gaps of the body panels.

My mom hit the Money Deer.

She was coming home from work after a 4pm-midnite. A deer decides to commit suiced by automobile and leaps in front of her. It makes it far enough across the road that she hits it just behind the shoulder, square on the front bumper. Its head whips around and smashes in the side of the bumper. The deer goes out like flipping off a light switch, as humane as you can get.

Her insurance looks at it, totals the car, and writes her a check for Blue Book value. That's enough to pay off the note on the car, fix the front bumper, and have a few hundred left over. Mom goes from wondering if she can keep up payments, to owning the car free and clear in one instant on the way home one night. We still respect that deer's sacrifice.

That makes sense. I don't know much about cars, just theirs always had a bit of a semi 4WD look.

An old school friend of mine hit a roo and got knocked out, he woke up in time to realise his car caught fire. I'm not sure what happened to the roo, it's entirely possible it hopped away.

Apparently kangaroos try to zigzag when they see an approaching threat, which probably works better against dingos than cars.
