Devlog Build 1500

Direct as hell
You can just add the nickname and realname thingy or get back the previous one, but add the KDR marker, i prefer that over scores.

 

I agree, I'm not liking it.

 

i must have never paid attention to slash canceling. What exactly did/does it do?

 

I'm pretty sad about the removal of slash canceling. Honestly, probably about 70% of people that played knew about it. I think it should've just been fixed so it actually cancels the slash and not just the animation.

 

Canceled your slash.

 

I'd be all up for it coming back if you could actually cancel your slash, and have your animation go along with it, but only at the apex of your slash. Not like 0.33 seconds in, as then it'd be completely spammy and not predictable.

 

It's some really awkward thing. As knight, holding your inventory open would stop all animations from occuring client-side, but not server-side. It's useful for getting extra speeds and stuff. E.g. if you held RMB to get your shield up, then held your inventory open, you could move around without any speed or jump reduction but still have your shield up on the other end.

You could also do some shit with slashing but it got too confusing for me to even bother with it. I personally am happy they removed it, it's a boring and confusing glitch that adds nothing to gameplay unless you play this game way too much.

 

*smiles nervously and laughs* wwhaaaat I totally did not abuse this in public servers at all and I totally don't play this game until I run out Internet everytime...

 

I have new net where I could easily run out of internet, but they forgot to turn off my other internet so I have free unlimited internet for now, so I don't even touch the new stuff.

 

probably not and not everyone who knew used it (eg. me). it was a bug, exploiting bugs to win is for losers

 

It's more balanced than water spam and boulders

 

While you fixed clan tags, which is good, in response to your "minor" post, not being able to see them is actually more than minor. given kag is heavily influenced by clan on clan game-play, it's actually just as major as the scoreboard itself.

 

Are you able to do resolution scaling menus? I'd like to play on a lower resolution if I could.

 

Boulders were stupid, but now why would I go out of my way to make one? Spikes were barely noticable, so it's understandable why they got nerfed, but boulders you could see coming a mile away. Now it's just like the lantern, bucket, and sponge. Another useless item...

 

And yet you can still die from a Boulder, but not from a Bucket, a sponge, a lantern, etc. I don't see an issue unless you are so bad at playing the game you want every way to instantly kill players handed to you.

If you're fast enough you can land 2 hits with 1 boulder before a knight can even get in a swing.

Though if they kept it how it was, then they should make it where boulders instantly break every time per hit.

 

Spikes can instantly kill players, slashes instantly kill archers, archers can instantly kill builders/archers. I don't see why the boulder was that big of a deal. Playing with just a boulder had high risk high reward. I think just pressing throw and getting a kill a block away was dumb but as an archer you could at least build up velocity and fling them.
