    Man vig I love how you think anything is going to be changed with that sort of attitude. I'm sure all a game developer wants to hear to get him motivated is how much of a fuck-wit he is like you're suggesting. If you're going to be like that there's no stopping him from leaving everything well alone just to prove you wrong, not that he would because he seems a nice enough guy. But still, you need to take a chill pill and try and say in more polite terms that you're really pissed off, even if that seems a little contradictory.

    I've tried it the good way. It didn't work. Now I'm doing it my way.

    And vig revs up his motorcycle and drives off a cliff, duel uzis blazing as it 80's power metal blasts in the background.

    I really appreciated the support, vig. but frankly this is MM (and Geti's) game, and they can do whatever they want, in spite of what we think. Please don't talk like that. If not for respect of the fact that they've created this game we love so much, at least for the fact that it won't help the movement.

    Contrary don't forget the giant epic explosions. Whenever a guy drives off a cliff he needs an epic explosion.

    You may be suffering from the squashed HUD problem - can you be more specific about what you're seeing?
    Do you get a similar problem with block placement as a builder?

    Can someone please set up a euro server for the test build or something? I understand its only the test build but for me its unplayable when the server is in the us, lag prevents me from ever getting any damage on anyone or getting completely random kills. I think a lot of people from the EU will agree. Plus i'm closer to the US than most of the EU!

    In the new build, archers seem very powerful, even at close range against a knight. Just not long ago I killed 3 knights in less than 10 seconds at very close range.

    Well then those knights were quite dumb or didn't concentrate enough. Knights are very powerful now at close range. And knight vs. knight finally makes much more fun. :)
    I wrote down a list of suggestions/bugs/etc. while playing today on the testbuild. (There still is one way to make skybridges. :p) Will post tomorrow though (I'm tired).

    Oh and we should propably use the Test build-thread since this one is about new stable-version builds.

    I disagree with you Illu, but you were owning my ass as a knight, even though that was probably to do with ping. I still think knights are spammy now and the charge attack is not very good, but then I haven't played the test build that much because of the server being in the US. I don't know I guess I just feel something is still wrong here...

    Clan tags are messed up, they put two brackets in front instead of one so it looks like this:

    In my opinion clantags shouldn't put any extra brackets at all - it's up to clan how their tag should look like. It should just work like prefix added to name - only extra text specified in menu.
