Best part about this update? I'm running around doing stuff and guess what, I bump into people along the way. Makes the game feel way more populated. SMILEY<img src=" width="15" height="15" /> If only for today/tomorrow.

Yeah, that is pretty awesome, I have been all over richland and I am always running into people.

So far, it looks like the Kung Fu Grab animation is still really weirdly timed. The bullet-time doesn't kick in until after you've kicked them, and they're getting up off the floor...

Everything else looks amazing. I especially like the one for Wooden Dummy Drill. Especially with Hyperspeed on. SMILEY

My current thoughts on the patch:

- the ladies winter clothes are awesome, and the fact that you can wear jackets over top of them means they'll get steady wear for the whole year as parts of various outfits.

- the guys clothes are, well, meh.  The santa coat just looks kind of silly and the shoes are nice but not really mindblowing.  Still, I know a lot of people are very happy about them.

- While there are a few tweaked bullet time animations that I don't like as much as I like the old ones, having bullet time actually working all the time and even getting bullet time on moves that didn't have it before really does make combat almost an entirely new creature on a visual level.  I'll gladly take the few negatives in exchange for the mass amount of awesomeness that this fix brings to the table.  And major major kudos to Rare for pulling this off.  I can't even imagine the amount of work it must have been.

- Winter rocks.  I'd still like to see things like the bench and hardline textures changed to look like they have snow piled on them, etc. but having the snow fall again with the cold looking skies and all that... breathtaking.  And then to have a Sati day amongst it all... wow.

~I dont really think they look good with a jacket but they do look super sexy on their own.

- the guys clothes are, well, meh.  The santa coat just looks kind of silly and the shoes are nice but not really mindblowing.  Still, I know a lot of people are very happy about them.

~I'm not a fan of the bouchers, the Red santd one is fun (rather would have seen a green one, its another victory for Coca Cola >_<SMILEY but the shoes are awesome sauce!  The white ones are just perfect.

~Its been pretty hard to see them fighting Chill Sims SMILEY but the few I have seen so far look awesome, I like how bullet time kicks in when your oponent is in the air on some of the Karate ones which makes it look awesome!

- Winter rocks.  I'd still like to see things like the bench and hardline textures changed to look like they have snow piled on them, etc. but having the snow fall again with the cold looking skies and all that... breathtaking.  And then to have a Sati day amongst it all... wow.

~Yeah, the the cold colors that are used for the natural light color makes the city look awesome, I can see myself sitting when it is snowing just admiring it for ages.

All round, it is awesome patch, has matched up to the excitement that built up in me ^^

I'm not even sure where the yetis are :O.

I actually thought you had to kill the lvl 50's on the ticket runs.
