Realm Reborn = downgrade?

That's unfortunate... sounds like it was decided not to be implemented because of time constraint (rush).
Hopefully as more footage to come, the animation will stand on its own.

It's not a time constraint: The animations slowed things down. Removing them is the only way to make character response more immediate. They aren't rushing- and this is a decision to remove, not a decision not to implement. Yes, some of those animations were kinda cool but I'd rather my character accurately and immediately respond to my commands, not be delayed by twists and jiggles.

Jiggles...? I missed jiggles!?

-Dissapointed- >..<


I hope they can add the animations back later when they feel their system can handle such things. (Animations are player side and should have nothing to do with the server, but the engine itself (player side) may not be able to handle all that stuff yet).

The problem with the movement not being responsive was a server issue, not an animation one.

The animations were probably removed because they couldn't/didn't want to/didn't had the time to find another way of fixing the animation lock.
