Re: Realistic AT-AT and AT-ST walking

I don't think in real life, they would walk on a 0° angle, I even don't think they would walk on hills with big angles, only the at at, cause it is some kind of elephant smile

Re: Realistic AT-AT and AT-ST walking

i dont think that ATAT's or ATST were designed for hills or steep terrain. there will be gentil slopes eg. hoth isnt completly flat. im sure our coders will make sure these issues dont arise.

Re: Realistic AT-AT and AT-ST walking

Not really, AT stands for All Terain. There were some hills on Hoth that had to be traversed.

Re: Realistic AT-AT and AT-ST walking

yeah, but very steep hills cannot be passed, even not by all terrain vehicles!

Re: Realistic AT-AT and AT-ST walking

Here's what I think...

AT-XX can't go up steep hils. But If there were some less extreme angles, then I dont think the whole thing would rock back and forth. Ex. On endor with the AS-ST's. The ground wasn't exactly even there. There could have been tree trunks or other things it was walking on. I dont exactly see them swinging side to side like the do in GC in the movie. That would be kinda funny if it really did lol

Re: Realistic AT-AT and AT-ST walking

when we walk on not even terrain, we try to balance ourselves too, without too much swinging from side to side, don't we? smile
