Had some (little) time with the demo as well.KyanMehwulfe said:Got around to checking out the demo... Seems the exact same as the Beta 2 client sans the user stat accounts. Any word on where the new Slipgate map is? I checked my QW bookmarked sites quickly and saw no word. Texture pack seems the same as beta, too - I was sure I had heard word out of E3 that a bigger texture pack was in store. You'd think they'd try to squeeze more in for the public demo. I forgot to check if the framerate was locked yet, too.
No new map from what it seems or at least no server runs it (which is unlikely).
Map is pretty much the same. Didn't look at the docs and txts but it seems to me that the Desecrator now packs more of a punch (esp. in siege mode) but the plasma gun takes more time to reload. Anti-vehicle turrets seem to have taken a small hit, which would be welcomed.
I just copied my Beta cfg (which consisted mostly of my Q4 cfg) and they seem to have modified some commands or taken them out. Bobbing was still on even though it's disabled in my cfg. Mouse seems more responsive now (had to turn down my sens). Aiming in general and gun-handling has improved, I was fragging like mad (may also have something to do with the huge influx of noobs).
Can't wait for my pre-order to ship.
