Dragon Age Inquisition's horses faked sprinting because levels couldn't load quick enough
No, sprintওing o💦n a horse wasn't quicker than trotting along

Turns out your horse wasn't actually sprinting i🅺n Dragon Age: Inqui༺sition after all.
Earlier this week, a Twitter user called for people to reveal a "useless fact" about the Dragon Age series. Grasping that opportunity with a firm hand, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dragon Age 4 creative director John Epler revealed that 🐈horses in Inquisition weren't actually movin💎g faster when they 'sprinted' - but speed lines and a camera trick made it look like they were.
when you 'sprint' on a hor🌟se in DAI it doesn't really do much because frostbite couldn't stream in levels fast enough, so we just added speed lines and changed the camera so it felt faster //t.co/VDDvOGlᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚSS5
If you've ever been exploring the open lands of Dragon Age: Inquisition on 🐓horseback and thought sprinting would get you to a destination quicker, you've been utterly fooled. This is all apparently down to EA's Frostbite game engine, which unfortunately couldn't🍒 load in levels fast enough for the horses to actually sprint their way through maps.
Fortunately, this wasn't the only memory-ruining secret Epler had to reveal on Twitter. The creative director also revealed that Dragon Age: Inquisition's development team had to erect a "sex tower" dedicated to Iron Bull's romance scene, because the mo🙈tion capture performances of everyone who walked in on the scene assumed there was a doo🐟r in the tower.
i've told this story before but the reason Iron Bull's romance scene takes place in a separate tower is be🍬cause the mocap for everyone walking in on you assumed that there was a dooꦯrway, and the player's bedroom ended up having stairs.so we moved the scene to the Sex Tower //t.co/VDDvOGlSS5
The player character's bedroom ended up having stairs straight to their room in the tower, with no door blocking the way. Instead of reshoot the motion capture for the romantic scene, BioWare just moved the entire scene t🌜o another tower ent🍸irely, which is why Iron Bull's romance scene doesn't take place in the Inquisitor's bedroom.
Well, the more you know. This is BioWare getting really creative to counteract several problems though. Who knows, maybe years down the line we'll be hearing similar stories from developers on 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dragon Age 4?
