Recent change to bear model

Unread post by **Gungnir** » Sun Nov 07, 2010 11:51 pm

Did anyone notice that recently the bear model changed. Their mouths are now closed. This includes Druid bear form, npc beast bears, and even Arcturis the spirit beast.

Personally I think they looked more menacing when they had their mouths open all the time. Now they just have a big toothy grin

Perhaps those pesky druids are responsible for this?

I like it! They may still have dental issues, but at least they're not mouth-breathers anymore.

Picture? I can't climb on to beta right now.

It's not in the Beta. It's a Live change. Bears open their mouths when they run, and close them when they're not roaring/running.

I thought their mouths have been closed for a while now...>.>

Oh. Very subtle change. I wouldn't have even noticed that.

I think they have been.
Been like that before I tamed my Arc, and that was months ago.

It's a new change. My Arc used to be a huge mouth breather.

Even looking back at my old screenshots I see my bear and Arcturis with a closed mouth. xD So, it's been around for a while.

Yeah this is why I posted this. As far as I can remember, mine had an open mouth. Not until this last weekend when we were laughing at our druid bear tank eating did I notice his mouth was closed most of the time. Then looked at my pet and saw the same. If its been around for months, I guess I just overlooked it

I had Arcturis a long time ago, and my very first screenshots of him after the tame have the closed mouth.

I could swear they've been like this since at least WotLK release--that when the new riding bear models and the new druid forms were brought out, they all had closed mouths. Tbh, I don't remember them ever having open ones, bar druid forms

It's been in for quite some time.

I...Never...Noticed...!

I have noted that Druid forms and Bear mounts have one extra claw than pet bears.
