Title: Combat Speed
Post by: v/onMega on May 02, 2011, 11:08:45 am
EDIT: Seems like the combat speed really is different, slower.

Not even talking about the poor dmg you do as a 2 her... :-)
-------------------------------------------
Hi folks,

spend around 45 minutes playing the patch.

Not going to state any good or bad things....though,

I cant get rid of the feeling that the combatspeed (movement, specially feints, swings and blocks) seem veeeeery veeeeeery slow?

Leaving the imo good changes of the new patch,
Combatspeed feels a little boring / playing as everything is packed in wool. (not a connection or pc thing ;-))

Might be a subjective impression, id like to get some response, please.

P.s: NOBODY SHOULD PLAY TITANS QUEST. ITs a hell of a drug!!!

I've noticed this a bit, but I've also had higher pings. Combat feels slower, like playing in a suspended pool of glue, as a friend put it.

I get the same feeling. Not sure if it's the patch, but combat feels a bit slower. Ping is the same and no noticable lags or connection issues. Melee timing and swings just feel a bit slower, especially when the server is near 120 players.

Really happy about the patch. Some great changes and additions.

I said on the duel server... "Shit my athletics feel more like 5 not the 8 that it is, might as well have 5!"

I think it's lag-related, noticed it myself as well, it's pretty obvious if you play on one of the official servers than switch to Shogunate, for example. It also seems to occur at peak times,now for example when there are only 60 people on EU servers the speed is fine.

Same feeling for me but nothing that spoils the experience.
I also find that chamber blockings happen more often, like if the window to pass a chamber block is "open" longer. This maybe linked to the lower speed.

I had the same impression but i thought it was related that i installed the newest nvidia detonator and forgot disabling vsync.

Haven't played much, damn Titan Quest!!! Mega third and fourth act today? ;D
Want to kill 25 Typhoons, MEGA MONSTER MOD FTW!

Haven't really noticed it, but is it? Think i'm going with a long hafted blade instead of hoplite for a while. Let's see how my oh-so-good blocking skills are with slowed speeds.

I felt also something is wrong on half the matches i played. Once i played on eu2 and everything was working fine. Not sure what else to say. Gonna drink some more beer so it feels all the same anyway.

Not sure about other weapons, but 2h sword thrust/poking is slower. There is no doubt about it.

I've noticed it to, with the new update it seems there is more server side lag on crowded servers.  Just go to a less populated one, which shoudln't be that hard as there are now like another half-dozen dedicated servers for cRPG.

  For a poor west coaster like me with na100 ping of 120, as well as horrible reflexes, I cannot be happier. With the new speeds I was actually able to beat some folks who regularly destroy me on the duel server.

I am a west coaster, and I have about a 78 ping to all the NA servers pretty consistantly.  I have not noticed any lag or slow combat since the update.  So maybe I always had slow combat, or it just hasnt made a difference for me.

On the duel server it's like usual. But on Battle it's impossible to feint because how laggy it is.
