I miss how it was.

This screenshot was taken TODAY:
I'm with you. People were having fun. Nice elephant.

Well.. I tested the speed of the new bodies compared to the old ones walking horizontal from one side of the level to the other.. and both testers had lvl3 shield.. old bodies were much faster.

yeah, there might not be anything wrong with them, but they're not widely liked by everybody that plays.

I think the poll and petition would've said that itself, but it looks like I've had to step in.

If you're going to keep the new bodies, be sure to crash the NPC server at least twice a week the way you did last night. That was honestly the best time I've ever had on 2k1.

Another server? There are important factors such as lag and processor speed which can give the illusion of faster walking with the "old" bodies.

Offline? How? Two-player mode was removed, and basing your assumptions off of "Well, I think this one went faster then that one." is a poor way to attempt to find something that doesn't exist. And stopwatches are also unreliable, as you can start pressing the movement key and start key on the stopwatch and different intervals that can make several errors in the final observation.

It's height perception, like I said.

ok true, i just thought of those off the top of my head. some reason my framerate is higher with the new bodies since I upgraded, its probably the constant sounds going on that raise my framerate.

Again, framerate and lag. I'm not doubting the fact that you went through thorough pre-cautions to do this, but I simply believe it's height perception and lag.

The new bodies don't bother me tht much.
Yes I prefer the older ones but the new ones are okay too.

I don't like the new HP at all though.
However it is much more scripting friendly, allowing much more weapons and variations on weapon effects so it's good in that way.

So it has both its good and bad.

I already told you we did it horizontally.. height perception is no matter.

Both of us saw that my body was moving way ahead.. by 3-4 inches, neither of us were lagging, my NPCtest only has 2 npcs in it.. no lighteffects, etc.

I prefer the old bodies, mostly because you can change color and also because it keeps the Graal feel with it. As for the system i prefer the new one its just better.

No, I mean, the script was fixed and updated.

Which means that the real walling bug is somewhere else and not in the script. :|

They should put up a test server with the old bodies to see wich one would be played the most.

I can probably guess the outcome.
