Jubatus Posted June 14, 2002 Share Posted June 14, 2002 Woohoo! Freedom at last! Logged onto Hermes Place, my favorite duelling server, which is no force/saber only. And oh joy, go tell it on the mountain, all bugs of 1.03 were gone! And other issues had been fixed too, so the game is now at a state, where I find joy in playing. My patience has been rewarded We tested all former bugs and found them fixed: You can no longer do a blue stance lunge while off the ground, so you can no longer use it as a parachute to get unharmed down from great drops nor use it to ignore the directional movement of a jump and attack from the air. Always hated when people would do a back flip and then suddenly at the peak of their jump they'd ignore the momentum of their backwards movement and come rushing forward in that attack. What I hated even more was that 9 out of 10 players to abuse it wouldn't even admit it was a bug at all; totally absurd. This fix is the one I appreciate the most! Blue stance backstab is no longer bugged. Up till now the saber would still carry full damage capability when the attacker turned it into you after the attack had reached its peak, and furthermore it would still do full damage when the attacker twirled the saber back in front of himself. They simply fixed it by making it so you can't turn anymore when in the movement of the attack; the way I would have done it. And the twirl to bring the saber in front has been fixed, too. Hit detection of DFA was fixed to a great extent from 1.02 to 1.03, but not entirely. Now it has been fixed to satisfaction. Things that has been downgraded to acceptability: Backwards running has been slightly slowed down and backwards rolling no longer sends you gliding 20' back, just enough to get out of harm's way. Damage of blue stance backstab, yellow stance finisher and yellow/red stance backslash has been reduced. Assfighting simply isn't worth it anymore. Guess that about covers it. I am immensily pleased. I felt such freedom fighting today; no longer having to worry about bugabusement or 'sudden ass!' is a great relieve. On a sidenote, we had a couple of players on Hermes Place today, one was an assfighter extreme and the other would go for the jumpinterrupting blue lunge when low on health. They were both surprised all to hell as their former 'techniques' were now either fruitless or outright undoable. Couldn't help but chuckle a bit. Needless to say, without the aid of bugs they were poor fighters Rejoice all true jedi fighters out there! The era of assfighting/bugabusement is at and end!

Jubatus Posted June 15, 2002 Author Share Posted June 15, 2002 Why doesn't it surprise me to see how few players express their appreciation of this fix? I do believe it's the 1.03a patch, yes. Jubatus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossil25 Posted June 15, 2002 Share Posted June 15, 2002 yay... too bad that while this ends assfighting, it also means that if you were genuinely attempted to be killed from the back without any hidden intentions of trickery in your mind, you can't just quickly react with a backswing or backstab to save yourself. I always found it cool that i managed to save myself those few times that it occured. ah well, but it's worth it as long as it ends the backward walking crap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
