Stances are only used if you win the game. Id just like to see some variety in the opening cinematic with some new stances or even emotes in the intro to each game.
Maybe have my spartan tactically crouch over and over before the game starts or something idk.

intro emotes is a great idea.

Yeah, would make the stances more valuable and make the intros cooler as well
Each stance could have an animation with it too, this would cover emotes without actually having emotes be content fillers

Those would be good.
It’s weird that the stances aren’t animated.
I also wish we could create and share our own stances.

That would be pretty tricky to pull off

Why do you think it would be tricky for that to be added?

I’m on board with this 100%! They should definitely include opening game emotes in store and in the battlepass. If not, what a missed opportunity. The battlepass is so bland between each armor set. They should absolutely sprinkle a few of these in there.

How do you suppose we make custom stances? How are we to position the Spartans? Make the animations for the Spartans?

Something like Forge mode.
I think I’ve actually seen a game where you make poses for characters before, but I can’t remember what it was called.
For animations though, that might be more difficult.
They’d need to either let you record as you move each part (hand, arm, head, leg, etc.) then edit and patch them together into one animation, do something like stop-motion (that wouldn’t look good) or fill in the spaces between points with movements.

Seems like a lot of dev work to get it working for a pretty meaningless feature (I don’t mean to be rude, I just that wouldn’t be used very often)

I’d use it a lot, like I used to change my armor and build in Forge a lot.
However, I can see people not using it much, especially if they don’t make it user-friendly enough.
Still, with a sharing feature, we’d probably get a lot of neat animations.
I can think of a few that I’d try to make.
Either way, it’s not too important, I suppose.

How do they prevent people from making lewd gestures in the animations though?

How do they deal with people doing that in Forge?

Hypothetically, if they let you animate stances how would they prevent Spartans from making lewd/offensive gestures?
I’m sure they don’t want a team of Spartans all raising their right arms, you know?

A report feature would probably work best.

Right - I guess since you can’t report cheaters I forgot that was an option - ha

Would be nice, but it’s mostly a casual thing so I’d rather them focus on important matters before stuff like this. Like optimizing the game and fixing BTB. Maybe down the road perhaps?
One thing I’d like to see for end match stances myself is that the weapons your Spartan is carrying can be swapped out with others that can work with the pose that’s used… Like Assault Rifle poses can utilize the Battle Rifle, Bulldog, HeatWave, ect. instead. Rocket Launcher poses with the Skewer or that lock on rocket launcher that I can’t remember the name too lol. Pistol poses with any of the pistols or Mangler.

You a dev or something? You saying how do you suppose WE do blah blah blah is what made me wonder. I do think custom animations would be a pain for 343 to add. I also dont think i would use it either BUT i do think that lile forge it could end up with its own community.
