Who else wants a moose mount? The animation for the camel is essentially identical as it would be for a moose. They both run kind of weird with those floppy legs because they're too tall. The only thing ZOS would need to do is change the body cover on the animation and add moose antlers. The animation is already built.

Who wants a moose mount?!! I know I do, and it'll be easy for ZOS to do. It'll look awesome running in a herd with the elk....which I also can't wait to purchase.

Bring on the moose mount ZOS! .....Please.....

    I've never played wow.....but what I'm picturing isn't corny. ZOS did a really good job with the animation for the camel, and it just happens to be exactly how a moose looks when it runs too. So I was thinking it wouldn't be too awful hard to create a moose mount. ....and of course they could sell it in crown store and get revenue from it too. I'd happily buy one. ....but I might be the only one lol.

    If the proportions is good I might buy it. I tend to buy rides but prefer horses due to the size.

    What do they call an American moose in Europe then? (not a joke, lol...guess I'll have to look it up)

    ...and the antlers on that deer "diagram" are way off. Those are elk antlers on a deer.

    It does look pretty crazy sometimes.....but don't you think that we should all have the ability to ride what ever we want...within reason lol. I think a herd of elk running though cyrodiil will look bad'ass.

    Those are large antlers for a deer, but not 'out of this world' rare either.

    Yeah, I guess....for a big mule deer. White tail antlers are are typically, I say typically for a reason, smaller, cupped, and forward facing. ....but we are digressing big time here lol....must be maintenance again.

    As a born and raised European who grew up in Sweden, we say moose, always has, always will. An Elk is an entirely different animal. Wtf lol. Americans... -_-

    Moose don't spit! Camels spit. :P Moose snort and grunt mostly, but they also have a super spooky call (which would be EPIC to hear from an in-game mount!!)

    Depends on the kind of deer. The one in the diagram actually looks more like a reindeer. But Mule Deer are pretty small and Whitetails can vary ins size. I'm from Maine and the Whitetails there are about twice the size of the Whitetails in Michigan where I am now (I actually thought they were Mule Deer when I first saw them.

    Also, the moose in the diagram should be larger. :) I have seen collisions with mid-size cars and Bull moose and the moose walks away while the car is totaled. And the ones I've seen aren't even as big as the ones in Alaska!

    Nords on moose.... Awesome in so many ways. Great idea!

    I'd only want it if it came in daedra form because everyone knows that the Atronach Camel is by far the coolest daedra in all of Oblivion!

    The others envy the stormy lightning creature awkwardly flopping all over Tamriel. Yes.. I got one in a crown crate :-/

    Interesting. I was confused because what is called a moose in that pic is an 'Elch' in German ... but elk is also translated as Elch. The New Life mount looks like a stag to me (which seems to be the same as 'deer' in German ...). *is even more confused now*

    Can safely say I won't be buying it. I only buy cat and horse mounts. I dislike the way the wolf mount's head turns when, well, turning. I think the bear mount looks ridiculous when running and the guars, they just look terrible as do the camels.

    Truth. I bought a Pride Lion, but it was like daggers to my eyes how low to the ground I was. So now I ride a big brown Bear, which is the same height as a horse. We'll see how tall the Elk looks... :wink:

    The camel animation that ZOS created is VERY moose like. I live in a part of the world where moose are very common. (and I'm talking about north American moose, not Eurasian elk)
