Change / Fix: Flipkick - Mechanics for FlipKick have changed rather than no knockback on Strength 3, and a percentage 30/60/90 knockdown chance while not having Strength 2:

• KnockDown Mechanic
  • Take the users FlipKick Rank and subtract from the defender Strength Rank.
  • If the user is 3 ranks or higher then knockdown is guaranteed.
  • If at least 2 ranks higher. Knockdown targets who are in air, or not walking, blocking, crouching, or standing still.
  • If 1 rank there is no chance of knockdown.

  • Fix: Uninitialized knockback direction on being flip kicked.

  • Each rank in strength reducing knockback by 50% until Rank 3 where there is no knockback at all.
• Knockback and Knockdown mechanics do not apply if target is already suffering from a knockdown.
• Damage is 9/12/15 from 8 at all ranks, and still bypasses armor. (Additional knockback may apply as a result of this damage)

  • Physically Based Rendering in OpenJK/ MBII means there is now support for:
    • Normal, Height, Roughness, Metallic, AO, Specular, Gloss texture maps.
    • Cloth Material Rendering
    • Tonemapping
    • HDR Color Space Rendering
    • HDR Lightmaps
    • Parallax Occlusion Mapping
    • Screen Space Ambient Occlusion (SSAO)
    • Cascaded Shadow Maps for Suns
    • Image refraction
  • More features for Rend2 are still in the works and will be coming in future updates.
  • Important Notes:
    • Only a small subset of assets within Movie Battles II have been updated to work with Rend2. Many of those assets, like maps, only use a small subsection of the features available. This is a starting point and with each update we hope to continue to update old assets and add new ones to increase our visual fidelity. Assets will also be refined as Rend2's feature set grows, as well as our experience using it within our workflow.
    • With an increase in graphical fidelity comes with an increase in memory usage and file size. Be warned when switching to using Rend2. In the future, the launcher will include a separate toggle for downloading Rend 2 assets.
    • When first launching, be sure to go into the Settings / Video/ Rend2 Options to check that settings are enabled. However, HDR Lightmaps setting may cause issues on maps without HDR lightmaps. Safe to keep that off for now as no maps currently support HDR lightmaps.
• Vulkan
  • Change: Merged in upstream Vulkan updates from Quake3e
  • Change / Fix: Restricted several cvars to be behind cheats being enabled
  • Fix: Flares now work again.
• General
  • Fix: Fixed s_initsound 0 crash
  • Fix: Fix a regression for same-frame mutual kills.

Speaking of Sabering part...

So far nothing seems to be wrong to me after a couple of duels, smoother sabre collisions actually make duels look cleaner.

Though i might support the idea that some swings are now closer to landing instantly when accelerated, if i got it right. But i am not certain if i am seeing things and it was like this before.

... currently we're seeing weird saber behaviour ... It leads to visually unappealing instant hit that even the Jedi Archive have never heard about. ...

In any case, Swing Accelerating a.k.a. yawing, still deserves a radical balance fix more than anything else does

 

[RogueWookiee]

Get more dueling experience, this is not the case whatsoever.

Yawing can be read and countered easily with slaps, distance, and experience with PB zones.

I probably am not around for as long as you are really, but my 6 years experience has proven the point to me multiple times.

Yawing can be read and countered easily with slaps, distance, and experience with PB zones.

Properly executed yawing cannot be predicted more often than in 1/5th of cases, it's gambling. You get ~20% chance at most to block properly yawed opener. Everything else that is claimed to be 100% counter-covered is just a poor performance of said technique, which is how absolute majority of MBII performs it.

 

[/Logrus]

Why didn’t you give the opportunity to throw the staff? just any reason? You wanted to do this, didn't you?

 

[Valkyrie]

From a mindgame gameplay relying on hard mechanics (1.3 up to 1.5), we are now completly in the "new era" of saber-saber interactions. Where one learns attack patterns, and rely on movement to make a difference.

Thanks to all who contributed in making this game a dumber place. It's not like some of us tried to explain in details, but after cycles and cycles of new players. Too few we are, too ignored we been.

Rest in peace hope for duelling. May the brutality and gambling be your amusement, for those of us who liked the depth we no longer see spark of hope for (Nor see at all!). We'll be leaving.
I do hope the devs realises they contribute to lowering down the skill ceilling, by allowing it to be basically dumber. (But it requires years of intense duelling, and mastery, which im not sure one has reached...)
Stassin was far from wrong, in the end.

Cool story how bout you post an actual feedback if you're complaining

 

[Hessu]

Funny how this is the first time since 1.5.2 (that came out several years ago) that sabering was changed. And it gets broken lol.

 

[Damn Polak]

i'm going to miss old ee-3
looking forward to learning new manda gimmicks

 

[Rajive]

The new sounds effects for clone rifle/pistol are awful. They sound like a child toy now.

SBD & T21 are fine, even if for the T21 I still like the previous one more.

As for mand is it possible to change the hold to aim mode on ee3 to an on/off switch ? It feels really weird for all weapon to have a toggle mode except for ee3.

Otherwise it's great to have a new update.

I think this is what Adelaide is referring to.

It essentially looks like swing animation "jumps" to a later part when chaining after a parry. I can't understand what causes it, it happens on random instances.

I've got more footage of such glitches, I'll upload a better video when I get some time.

 

[Townsend]

pb is weird

 

[cocaine]

This is the first update to actually make me not like the game at all afterwards. Everything is just worse than before lol.

 

[Sir.Muis]

 

[Bud]

The new TK system is ridiculously strict. I was on Gonk Garage last night, it was a full server. Players (not trolls, just people playing the game regularly) were getting executed and kicked for teamkill points every single round. If admins weren't there to reset people's points, the server would've been empty in an hour.

 

[Damn Polak]

I couldn't find library entry on Amban rifle
edit:ee-3 lvl2 scoped crouched stationary is now inaccurate, is this a bug?
also since amban rifle doesn't waste ammo when the charge is interrupted wouldn't it be more ergonomic to charge automatically when scoped (like tf2 sniper) and fire on click instead of release?

 

[Jedirep.]

This is the first update to actually make me not like the game at all afterwards. Everything is just worse than before lol.

I'll second that. I like the additions of new skins and maps but they went way too far with core changes. I don't understand why devs do this, they change the game over and over until it doesn't even feel like what people fell in love with and that's led to the death of so many games. Like why change blaster sounds, what did that add? They should take they're hands off the goddamned wheel before they wreck the game completely with these awful updates.

 

[Leo]

First you must realize that all the things devs had done, they done in their free time and for us, as I doubt they would be doing this just for themselves. If you really dislike something, you should address the specific problem and your thought on possible solution, feedback is important than just pointing fingers and saying "This broke the game for me" "This made me uninstall" "This ruined everything". At the end, you're still here and you probably want to play some more, so make the job easier.

 

[MaceMadunusus]

but they went way too far with core changes. I don't understand why devs do this, they change the game over and over until it doesn't even feel like what people fell in love with and that's led to the death of so many games.

While I understand having frustration with changes, this one in particular doesn't feel very founded in reality, and also feels like it is from someone who hasn't read the changelog, or has been around very long. It is really disappointing and disheartening to see someone not really want to understand or care for why we made such changes.

Armor for example used to be stronger in older builds, but it broke at some point to be equal to health. That resulted in changes like lowering projectile rifle damage because we noticed something changed but we weren't sure what until now. So things like that are a reversion to the "game people fell in love with". Back then people noticed a decrease in TTK times but we all thought it was because of other changes, when it was armor itself breaking. Way back when too, the Mandalorian class had the projectile rifle as its sniper, and now were back to something similar again with that, but still a bit different. We also brought back projectile rifle piercing through deka shield, once again an old feature.

Please, before raging at us read the changelog. If some things need to be adjusted further because there are still differences from now and old versions we will. We also did weeks of open beta, and the feedback thread has a whole 9 people (non-dev) that commented in it, and none for the last balance drop. I personally was hoping for more participation than we got, but maybe we need to set up specific beta times or something as well.

 

[Shady]

WHAT THE FUCK
it's so over
movie battles 2 has fallen...

There are some things that make this mod unique.. This was one of the most fun bug mechanic. Consider bringing it back as a feature please. The trolls must thrive! Think of how Bob Billy's new vids will no longer have floating duels on BOC and Deathstar

 

[Adélaïde]

Entire point from initial message of mine is...

...even segments under "Normal" mark show an opener that is too fast to be blocked by human reaction. So prediction only, which is basically pure gambling against a good opponent who can properly accelerate their swings.

Nerd part:

You can go to the 0:06 in the video, and do the following:

• Mark starting point: when it becomes clear what direction swing will come from
• Mark ending point: when swing lands
• Use timer and check how much has passed between those two points
• Considering how much the video is slower there (around 3 times?), calculate the real time between those two points
• Subtract average of ~40 ms of ping on top
• Subtract another ~40 ms you need to move your mouse physically
• Subtract another 60 ms, considering the swing almost wasn't accelerated

Got the duration?
Now, average human reaction is 200-250 ms, let's say 200 because we are MBII players
Really strong reaction time would be ~180 ms
Best recorded reaction in the world seems to be 100 ms, by some CS player, far not everyone is physically capable of that, also seems to be human limit
Google this, i did not come up with it myself

The reason i don't yaw for the last 4 years
It's good to know this technique and be able to perform
It's a comedy when something like this is OK'd in any kind of supposedly serious tournaments
