So far after extensive 1.7 betatesting, all i have to say is I love it...I would just like one minor thing changed, crouch. When i am keeping i need something to occupy my time, which is usually to walk around the pbox constantly tapping crouch

But other than that, I love 1.7 $\o/$

I used to wall-dodge around, but that s gone either o_O

BTW any news bout the "drop-ball-slowdown-bug" ?

I've seen some people use crouch to position or angle a volley (from a stationary ball). Not sure if it makes any difference to hitting a ball standing up tho.

I think this is dependent on your ping. I was playing offline and everything was smooth. I get a ping of 140-190 on my modem and find the jerk-o-vision really annoying. It's bad enough having a ping where you have to react earlier than other players to stand a chance but then to be blighted by a lack of smoothness is incredibly frustrating. So far 1.7 is proving to be very unforgiving to the high ping player.

So why has this been done? This was not the case in any other version of DB.

Crouch can help u with giving and (not) taking boosts :p

I'm really cool with 1.7. The more I play it, the more I like it. Especially passing goes sooo smooth, that makes db even more fun to play. Which I also like is the CLANK when u hit the post or bar...kick ass

I think the bug has been handled well too, once u have it, ur rid of it in no time...too bad it still exsist though...

All together DB has become more of a teamsport...well done!

i know i am being lazy but what about passing has been made more smooth, the only change i remember is that you can change your lock on strenght ( i would go check but aol

)

passing feels smoother because of 2 reasons

the sounds are "lighter" and "smoother" (catch and shoot sound)
and the switchtime is pretty much gone

the actual passing was not changed, but it feels smoother...

damn i thought you had actaully do something to improve the games passing... that would have pwned

I've got a few crash logs from the 1.7beta we run.

Does anyone want them?
