FGunZ Update // 09 MARCH 2022

[McSic]

is it known that the antilead is kind of messed up aswell?

I'm waiting for replays.

Nice update! However I'm very weary of the new UI redesign. The icons at the top (inventory, settings, etc) seem...alright. However it looks a tad strange with those massive gaps between each one. I understand what yall were shooting for but it just looks a bit odd. Reminds me of using rocketdock and having to fill the gaps between the icons. If anything the stage/room UI is by far the most confusing of the UI update. I don't understand the reasoning behind this change. Were there complaints? Why change something that's been the same for such a long time?

Redesigning things is just what we do, we do it all the time. Otherwise we would still be stuck on the original GunZ 2005 interface. In my opinion people really don't complain about the old things they got used to, instead they complain about changes. It's common to dislike changes you aren't used to, but that doesn't necessarily mean that those changes are bad. I believe if you give it a few weeks or months, you wouldn't want to go back.

Also not sure why they didn't just put some touches onto mansion map instead of redesigning an entire new map for the game mode. Awesome that you made the game mode a selectable option, but it doesn't....do anything different as far as I can see? People can still "cheat". Isn't it possible to place some invisible walls on mansion and have them off/on depending on the round? Also not sure if it's my settings but the A&D map seems very dark.

I believe you're referring to the Attack-Defense map. This isn't a new map we created for the mode, it's a very old map actually. Some people remember the map from V7 and asked us to bring it back, so we did.

My FAVORITE addition to the update is the team randomizer option and the Auto-Team-Balance now considers K/D instead of total kills. This is the perfect balance for TDM (hopefully). Keeps the pub stomping to a minimum (one team with 40-2 scores while other team is 0-18). And also keeps from having the same one or two people constantly bouncing between teams. Maybe add the option to switch EVERY round as well?

This option already exists.

Question though. . . do the quest clothing items that reduce damage also reduce damage outside of Quest mode?

No.

What map collisions are you referring to on Island/Dungeon? The invisible floors you can find throughout the map?

Spots that allowed you to get outside the map.

The cinematic camera for falling is a nice touch. But might need a bit of work? It seems to be a tad too slow? I didn't test it much but it seems like it takes a few seconds for the effect to start.

It's supposed to be that slow. Any faster felt uneasy when testing.

Love how y'all put a cap on how many letters are typable in a chat box to keep from people typing excessive text for no reason. Hopefully with this update means that the next update will include some kind of chat box enhancement? Such as a scrollable box or some kind of adjustment that can be accessed through options? (small, medium, large chat box where small includes 4-5 lines, medium 6-7, large 8-10?)

We are planning to rework the chat, but that's still going to take a while.
