it happened at least 3-4 times in out match against TFO earlier today.. it was quite annoying.

Note: the server also crashes twice... which is also concerning.

tbh havent had rebound thing happen to me yet but I've seen it happen to others. Altho maybe it isnt working how it should, I think its worth fixing and keeping in 1.8. As anything which makes the game faster is good for me =)

probably because it doesn't happen to keepers also i'd say it makes the game slower as it usually just sends the ball into the air

faster game = sprint on

simple

alars

yea, like star said. there was a deflection off 2 team mates passing to each other at close range last night which is entirely gay.

and tho i didnt use the jump over ball, volly into the floor and catch it trick (except at the start of matches when im 1st to the ball) i know some ppl found it useful (dunno why, it quicker to just walk into the ball ;p)


edit. oh, and in all my 1.7 matches i think i saw the charge up sound bug once or twice.

Last night i think we had it 5 times in one game. and dont tell me its cos we just didnt hear it before cos the charge sound was low, it would still have been noticeable. but saying that, we didnt see it much in the other games we played so maybe it was just one of those games..

lol, i've played two scrims and some pug games with 1.8 and i personally think that i've played enough

completely useless, what is really bad is when it gets deflected right into the goal! nice shot! gg. but seriously i don't think that both american AND euro players could both be wrong, as what i've seen in this topic. this really screws gameplay, i mean this almost encourages pbox camping because if someone goes out to guard someone, the ball will only be deflected from them...

i really don't think the db community needs to play 1.8 more to know that this is terrible for db gameplay. if i were you i'd get a 1.8b out (or call it 1.9, whatever) and get this out as quickly as possible. other than this one thing i am fine with 1.8, but without this one thing we basically have 1.7, which i had no problems with (except crouch :p )

anyway please, just take this out, as soon as possible

I c no problem with it, players also do it in football (soccer for NA) and it might work if the speed is done right (it goes way too fast now, and it also almost always goes really high up).

One important thing tho might be that a (locked altfire) pass should always be able to be caught (imo :p)

if you pass your teammate close enough it bounces off... that CANT be inteded... it's just stupid

davidm didn't you learn from 1.5 that spam is bad... you should put serious thought into the spam factore when considering any new ideas(heck even i could tell this was a bad idea even b4 it was put in)

You should have complained during the betatesting phase. Thank you.

Meh ill post my suggestion in 3 days then X_X

The betatesting was so rushed that u cant expect every1 to try it and come up with suggestions and solutions so fast.

hmm i have yet to play db 1.8 yet but wouldnt this new deflection system encourage defenders to volley it away resulting in defenders volly spamming? O_o

In all fairness David, you DID rush this release out due to the Unreal competition deadline. I didn't even hear of the beta phase Saturday night.

It is not our job to beta test and stop trying to put the blame on everyone who plays Deathball.

i didnt even know there was a beta phase :\

1st i heard of this change was when i read the 1.8 release change list...
