Good to hear that you are gonna make slow on landing(after jumping) or something similar. Looking forward to see the new tweaks in movement :) As for slow on damage, it need to be removed from everything except melee damage. It's great for rifle melee and alien melee. But bullets/flames/explosions that slow your melee class down so you are nearly unable to move, that doesnt work. I know many said this before, just giving in my report :)

Haha, I wrote that a while ago, I am still learning this web stuff!
While you guys are testing stuff, check to make sure you cant initiate a powerfull swipe and blink in at the same time, had a death as a marine vs a Fade whereas I as a fully healthy marine went down to 1 hit from a Fade who blinked into me while I watched..ie it was no sneaky fade, the dude just blinked at me and I instantly died. I suspect the game allows you to start the powerfull swipe attack and blink in before it lands...thus the attack lands as you come out of blink.

That just sounds like they were clever with timing and ability use if they pulled it off. Considering how circumstantial that attack can be it's nice to see some sneaky use of it I guess.
Though, I'm sure it'll become at least a little more useful once tickrates and framerates in general improve.

yeah, I knew people would start to abuse the bite bug, but also knew that if it was more known that they'd fix it sooner rather than later. I'm glad to see these quick changes being made, awesome stuff. =)

Noticed it with the ARCs (took 3+ hits to kill an egg), but not the others. Also can you PLEASE change the bilebomb projectile to be visible with alienvision? It used to be, but when the model was changed, you can no longer see where your bombs are landing with alien vision active.

fade needs huge movement boost.
aliens should be as agile as they were in ns1, race requires agile movement.
as for slow on hit, seriously needs to be gone, completely.
Because we can't do 50 things at once? Skulk is first in line, because skulk vs marine is the core combat and important to get right. After that, we'll probably move onto the Lerk, and then look into the Fade. Some additions to the movement code may even translate across all player classes.

I am working on a visualizer for the kill stats here and there but a few people have already created some decent ones if you look around.
