I noticed there's a bugs and wish list thread but I kinda wanted this to get a bit more... I guess notice? I dunno, if that's not allowed a mod or whatever can merge this.
Anyway, I just have a few bugs to report and few suggestions that I don't think would really take too much effort but would really be handy.
First off, it's a well-known bug but it's an annoying one... The pre-leveling is taking a bit away from the game. I mean leveling up early and then having the messed up EXP bar is one thing, but now I have to really stay on top of what I get each level. I don't have the little "Ohey, you earned a PMC skin." thing pop up anymore so each level I have to go through and scan through everything to find what I got.
This one's a bit more game-breaking. Many-a-time now I've spawned in the game with the camera INSIDE of my character, and no HUD. Now I can kinda play, and I haven't tested it to see if it actually fixes itself next round but it'd be nice if that stopped.
Only seen this one like twice but there's a very strange thing where at the end of a round (When it's showing how many points everyone got) sometimes one of the characters will be all... twitchy? Their hands and arms will be like inverted and it looks really creepy. Not game-breaking but it is weird.
Fix the pathing! I can't even tell you how many times I'll be sliding along, it'll stop then I'll be running in place. I'll still be moving but I swear I saw a turtle run past me once. Now I don't know if it's got something to do with my connection, but I've seen other people have the same issue where they'll be running but their character will barely be moving. Again, not game-breaking but it's really getting on my nerves.
More with the pathing, sometimes when I kick someone they'll stay on the ground in the stasis trap thing. And not matter how many times I kick him, he'll stay on the ground. This is especially frustrating for Team Challenges when you're in an area it's too risky to try and leash him away. (Not even sure that works)
And the last pathing related thing... In campaign, to jump over walls it's just too exact or something. I've spent like 10 seconds trying to move to the pixel perfect alignment I seem to need. Although, that could just be me and I'm an idiot who can't figure out how to jump over a wall xD
I've also had many instances where I'll start the jump, it'll stop halfway through, and I'll be on top of the wall unable to get off.
Onto my suggestions.
First off, can you please let us have better views of each of the customization things?
Zoom in and have my character hold up his PMC for the PMC skins
Zoom in on the helmet so I can actually see it
Keep it how it is for the character skin
Keep it how it is for the boots
Zoom out for the animation so I can really see it
Can I get a pre-view of the Leash color?
For ALL of them, add a rotation option so I can get a good look all around my character.
People have been asking for Ishi and Grayson as DLC characters, but I would like to add everyone else to that too. I'd love to play as Trishka sometime, Sarrano would be hilarious, and it'd be nice to be Whit or Rell sometime. But that might just be me being greedy, I dunno.
As a new suggestion though or in the case that them being DLC characters just won't happen, it'd be awesome to be able to change the voice in Anarchy to any of those characters. Sarrano insulting me at every turn is fun and all, but his voice gets a teeeeeny bit annoying after awhile. On the other hand, Ishi would probably get real pissed if I failed a wave... Oh well.
Anyway that's really it. I'm looking forward to the DLC Pack, and I'm looking forward to any DLC after that too. Thanks a lot for the game, and thanks a lot for reading through this!
