Is the parkour fun or is it janky as poo poo PLEASE say its not janky

Vaulting fixes one of my biggest annoyances which is trying to get over a wall or fence and messing up the jump.

Just played a bit of vaulty-jumpy on the test server. Disappointed that I couldn't climb the freight containers.

Edit: Wow, driving the motorbike (non-sidecar version) just got real easy. Can no longer oversteer as much, so I can turn at 130 km/h without tipping.
I kind of liked the old, high-risk driving better. Janky as it was.

I only played a little bit of test, and it seems mostly fine. My biggest gripe is that vaulting interrupts your reloading where crouch jumping didn't.


It's different, but I like the realism it adds. Hopefully they disable shooting while Jumping in a future patch.

Is it weird for them to overhaul the ballistics without first addressing things like the slow tick rate? That seems like it would have a direct bearing on the feel of whatever they're trying to accomplish.

I’m kinda sad they took out crouch jumping because it would let you get to crazy places like the top of the trifecta or a duplex.

All the vehicles handle differently and make different noises now too. Also the beginning plane and parachute are much quieter (yay). Taking out crouch jumping really does suck, but I get why they only wanted either vaulting OR crouch jumping. Vaulting seems OK.

Yeah, some interesting updates for sure.

Going through a window now breaks the glass, which is a big change.

Unless it's a bug, it doesn't seem like you can change the zeroing while using a red dot anymore (but you can with iron sights).

New buggy and bike sounds are pretty cool.

In addition to the sound changes, it also looks like they changed how vehicles behave on different terrains. You definitely slide further while braking on grass/dirt than you do on pavement.

My one complaint is the enormous change of the guns. I know it was early access, but it seems they did an enormous overhaul with ballistics for all guns, specifically making it a lot harder the farther someone is away. Which is fine I guess, but it's certainly going to be like learning a new game gun wise.

I like the new brightness changes on the red dot/holo/2x :D

Ballistics is much easier to tweak. Moving to a higher tickrate isn't always just changing a number in the server config.

I was just actually impressed with the devs for once. They jammed a LOT of stuff into this patch after not really doing much for 3-4 months.

FPS is better, vehicles are better, sounds are better, vaulting seems OK, and beginning loot grabbing is better. Also the CS style kill feed owns.

Unless I was super unlucky the one game I played, it was worse than ever before. I attempted to pick up a S686 and the 10 shells next to it. Within the first 2 minutes of a round, I will just look at the ground and press F to pick it up. Usually I'll have to press F 4 or 5 times to actually get the item. On the test server, I had to press F about 8 or 9 times to actually get the item.

Also, people were lagging all over the place.

Can't get no luck.

And also they warned about client crashes because they can't change anything without breaking 4 other things but oh well.

Changing ballistics behavior much later would cause more players to have to relearn stuff whereas just improving quality of life by performance enhancements doesn't require players to do anything. While I do hope they fix the performance/tickrate I can understand why they'd want to make the gameplay changes while still under the "Early Access" umbrella.

They changed the damage modifiers from "Same damage modifiers to all hit areas for all weapons" to "Different damage modifiers to hit areas based on weapon class or type." They are also allowing helmets to protect ya neck at a 25% less than normal headshot damage. (Before, the neck was considered a straight headshot)

So they are changing how damage is applied, but didn't really say much about vest penetration.

But since they're made by the lowest bidder, one in five doesn't actually provide any extra protection and still takes up space.

Has anybody deciphered what the new white bar means in your inventory space? Obviously when you go to pick up an item it shows how much space it would take up in the bag, and if you highlight an item in your own inventory, it shows up much space it would save if you removed it (by shading red). But what does the white shade that doesn't go up all the way to the top of the bar mean?

Just after landing, I chased another player, landed a single fist hit, whereupon we proceeded to spend a good two minutes on foot running around Ruins, parkouring like two motherfuckers, me wielding a pan and her/him with nothing. Sadly that one blow was all I was able to land, and it ended when they finally climbed the Church and managed to (while running) pick up a shotgun and put two shells in while I missed two wide open swings. I died as number 75 I think.

If you were that player, I salute you for your excellent dodging skills.
It may also have had something to do with me playing on the NA server from Scandinavia, but I really ought to have done better.
