Yeah, I think I'll be having some fun with the slightly different design.
I can assume that this was done to assist in making it possible to stop style stacking then?

Yeh pretty much. This is how it will look now. This was posted from Walrus's most recent "This Side of the Looking Glass" concerning update 44:

problem seems to be deeper than just me. other people can load their maps no problems. but.. they get the same error when trying to load spy style.

Hackers still only do 1 damage in IL whilst using Power Tactics, what a shame.

Well the bug fixes and the game altering content of the patch = very very good
the new cinematic however = horrible IMO
Are you guys getting so lazy in regards to new content that you cant even put together a real cinematic rather then a comic-book / storyboard? It just really bugs me that you cant do any of the following
A- Use the in-game engine
B- Use the in-game cinematic player (thus using Windows Media Player again assumably, and we all know how reliable that thing is with our in game radio)
C- Cant even eliminate the loading area music when trying to watch your Episode 5.1 storyboard...

Walrus,
are you aware of any of these problems that seemed to have surfaced with the patch?
Other than that, great work!
Just a quick final question, if we had all our abilities leveled to 50 pre-patch, then I don't need to do anything with these seperated styles, right? It's just a fix for style stacking, nothing more I assumed.

Ok I am not happy with the new style of cinematic...
I figure this is the best place to post...
To me these new cinematics add no depth to the game the animation is
that of story board quality which had me wandering are we infact just
getting the story boards that would have been used to script the
original FMV's.
I find myself wandering why such a change "had" to be made but I am
frankly dissapointed with the results. Is this an attempt to jump on
the "sin city" "max pain" band wagon [if it is..I would say that the wagon was truely missed] ? or is it just because it is easier to do it this way.
I fear it is the latter of the Two and this kind of upsets me
well anyway i feel this one post will attract minimal attention and get ignored or removed but I hope to get a response...
Cheers

It's because it was the easier way to do. Although I wouldn't bet none of the initiators/executors didn't think of Max Payne or Sin City doing them... :smileywink:

Correct, Rarebit said the old system took too long to make, and Monolith had a bigger team to do them. I for one am pleased with the new style, though. It has a much darker atmosphere and the music and voice overs were solid

I have one thing to say the new cinematic is cheesy!!!!!!! If your gonna kill one of the main characters off dont do a cheesy black and white 7 fram sketch and try to pass it off as a good idea. I'm not bashing the artist, but i want some movement besides just a camera moving. This is crap. If i wanted a comic bookin look cinematic i would go to CoH. Do us all a favor and put it back the way it was!!! Btw all my friends say the same thing and most have been here since beta along with myself. Message Edited by JakeS on 05.26.2006 12:31 AM
