Blaa.... I'm really hoping this is just things not finished as its alpha atm, some cutting down I understand to help people run the game with more people on the screen and on low/mid end PC's but meh, the quality of the animation and textures was a saving grace of the game.

It was addressed with "A L P H A". This game is like what 5-6 Month away of being released.

As much as I'm in agreement..

The its Alpha, It's beta, It'll be better after launch! was used a lot in the previous alpha/beta forums to try and get people to stop raising things they considered an issue.
An we know how that ended, it as no diffident in the end.
