Unhunched Orc model

[Al Gorefiend]

Tired of all the threads about void elves? Come recharge your testosterone levels here.

Saurfang is using the Orc model, without the hunch!

[Ulfric Trumpcloak]

It's just a unique model.

[Steampunkette]

There's unique elements on Saurfang's model, but his stance is the same as a normal orc, his shoulder broadness, etc.

He's the upright orc model, or at least skeleton, with a unique face/hair, and special armor bits.

[Al Gorefiend]

It's just a unique model.

These aren't the same models. Thrall's is unique true, and his clothing is a part of his base model. Saurfang isn't using it

[Khrux]

MF Saurfang, that is incredible looking.

[Wildberry]

It's just a unique model.

Garrosh had a unique model, too; however, people still rightfully took it as a preview of the update Orc model.

OT: Pretty excited, it actually looks decent. We'll have to see what the animations look like, but after the letdown that's been Allied Race customization option datamining, I'm pleasantly surprised with this.

Animations are available in the modelviewer on the frontpage.

Should have been more clear in the wording of that. I meant the animations for the base model, without the heavy armor. Saurfang looks nice, but I want a better mental picture of what my Orcs will be looking like.

It seems they only really updated a few of them.

Not that many players will notice their upright orc monks get hunched again in combat.

I like the sitting animations, though.

Ah, right. My bad.

[Wildberry]

Ah, right. My bad.

Don't worry about it, the wording was off on my end, but it's late. I've got a feel for most animations, but Saurfang's collar makes it hard to see what's going on in the neck region on others, which I'm concerned about.

I'm hoping this isn't the extent of it, but we'll see. Like I mentioned above, Saurfang's collar makes it hard to see, but there I'd at least change the melee combat ones. Regardless, the running animation is neat.

[Orby]

Saurfang cleaves put your back in an upright position... the average orcs cannot do this because they are not Saurfang

Ahh Saurfang jokes, it's like 2005 - 2007 all over again, good times :P

[rcshaggy]

I am going to love the un-hunched Orc Male Model...<3
Soon my Orc Male Warrior...SOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNN!

Females don't need a change, since they are standing up.

[Wildmoon]

Combat animations will remain the same. There's no point to change them. Some races hunch over when getting ready for combat too.

This Orc feature is probably the best part of BFA.

True, but proper Orcs are also competing against zero content, removal of tier gear, and cringe elves.

[Rukario]

Orcs with proper posture look and even run 10 times more naturally than the hunched ones...whoever thought they should make hunched orcs in the first place was a bloody idiot.

[Yarathir]

It's just a unique model.

Highly unlikely. Saurfang otherwise uses almost entirely orc player animations. Why would they do double work to give Saurfang an Orc skeleton with a straight back that is unique, only to then have to make another one for players because they said they would?

This, in my eyes, is a Garrosh v2. Where Garrosh's Siege of Orgrimmar model was a preview of the new orc player model.

Looks great i might actually main my Orc warrior next exp pack.
I am just waiting now to see other Orc clans become playable so we get tattoo and different skin color options.

If we get a Allied Orc race then there gear set is going to look sick.

I can't help but laughing when people make this kind of statements... Like seriously.


Going on topic, this Saurfang model does not look like all the "unique" models out there. His hairstyle and facial hair look almost identical to some of the available right now.
