Deus Ex Alpha

There is one or two people Ive noticed in games, usual and in Arx Genus, that have constant speed aug running animation when they move, I am not sure if they actually _move_ faster, but what gives? The AG person I noticed last night wasnt stealth.

Neither of the persons appeared to know what was going on, and the one in 0aug regular server complained it had something to do with his game performance. Is it possible that YOU seem faster than usual to OTHERS? Ive had a problem with dx once or twice where everybody seemed to be faster than me, in this case it was that particular player. I wasnt the only one who noticed it.

I've noticed this thing a couple of times too, but I'm not sure what is it.

Maybe it is somehow related to Deus Ex working 2 times faster on laptops with CPU (not sure) management system.

Next time you or me see them lets ask if they run their games on laptops.

The problem I had once, and I even made a topic about it here somewhere I believe, or someone did, was that everybody moved faster.
I think there has been a problem with you being faster than everybody aswell, but as it isnt really true, it has no positive effect on the game. Actually Im not sure if it was one or the other.

Something like this has been more common in dx community than one would think, I recall quite a few occasions where people asked for help when it came to this, and laptops were to blame in several cases too.


However, what made me doubt was that I saw them faster, and I had functioning game. I didnt think that if THEY have problems with it the others would see them bugged O_O


Ill ask about that laptop thing and if they think something is wrong, too, when I see them.

Yeah, stuff like this tends to happen a lot on laptops. If the server has MTL, the player will not move faster, due to MTL having his own way of handling movement (although the animation could be fucked up) but the player will still fire faster.

It's when a player dies using speed aug and the game (somehow) still thinks the player is using that aug and makes it looks as if he/she is running faster.
When you hear an aug on when you spawn and you haven't got any turned on use 3rd person and you will see that you are running like that.

Out of two people the latter did play in AG, so its AG related bug? First one was in mtl 0aug server.
