Didnt you guys play that mobile lba 1 version on pc? It was why i fought tank controls, but everyone is like, oh thats outdated

[Polaris]

Huh, that's very valid... But then what's left of the fighting ?

Anyway, I'm going to check out the enhanced version then, I played that only on mobile.

edit : No keyboard on the PC version, I have to use the mouse... No trying that out then I guess.

To be clear, auto lock isn't the only way to use the ball, you can also aim by holding 'alt' and then aiming with the arrow keys

The auto lock sometimes turns on, still not sure how it works, but it fucked me over once by locking onto a sleeping guard, allowing the guard I actually wanted to hit to shoot me

well, seems like reek is having fun with the demo

[pramosm]

Playing now.
It's quite hard to move with a keyboard.

[Polaris]

The good thing with the demo, is that it exists

[Reek]

One more thing, sometimes when NPCs run, they "ice skate" on the ground, i.e. the speed in which they're moving doesn't match the speed of the running animation.

This is because this game was made by amateurs who don't know what root motion is.

How 2.21 sees themselves: Twinsen is back! We're bringing back LBA to a new generation of players!


How LBA fans see 2.21: Amateurs !

[SpaceGuitarist]

Anyway, I think if 2.21 read this entire thread from page 1 to here, they would get exactly the feedback they need to improve. This is really a gold mine for any serious developer: all the problems are mentioned, and suggestions for improvement were made.

Or they can keep turning a blind eye to MBN forever and please the zoomers and discord community only. Which is a shallow move because, even thou it is their game, they could benefit a lot from hearing us, and the end result would far exceed their (low) quality standards.



Like I read in a japanese t-shirt once:

ALL WAS GIVEN

They have feedback forms they ask all play testers to submit.

They have a lot of people saying the demo is great and about 10 thousand people have added the demo to their Steam wishlist. They're fine. They know that to sell a lot of units they will need to fix things.
