that actually makes a lot of sense, seeing as how it's not devoted to hacking the rules, but simply bending them.
I remember commenting on this before. I'm all for removal of the yellow code and keeping the blur. The only thing I don't like about the blur is it happens with every minor movement even when standing in the same spot. But, meh... yeah, remove the yellow code...
Once upon a time, Hyperspeed had no effect at all. I would like that to return. In theory, if we're breaking the rule of speed, then there should be no blur at all, only everything else blurring around us.
At least it doesn't have that annoying yellow sprite pulsing around the feet anymore. But yeah, the swirling yellow code does get annoying. The blur effect is more than enough of a visual cue of the speed boost.
I've always felt that the code itself, in all effects, should be made more transparent. The fact that they are completely opaque and cover a wide range of colors makes it all too "in your face". Greens, yellows, purples, reds, oranges, flying all over the place and detracting from the action of the game.
It used to be so much worse, with flashing yellow lights on your feet. I like it the way it is, I don't want it changed.
Yeah, I remember when it was just the motion blur. I thought that was fine and never thought adding the code was a good idea. I half want to say I recall the justification for adding it being something about making it different than the hyper sprint animation. Whatever the reason, I wouldn't complain if the yellow code got ditched.
I would like to see the blur stay rather than no animation. If somehow the teeth could be dropped from the blur or made less prominent that would improve it in my opinion.
