Unf! Nice beta, my impressions:

SPEAK YOUR MIND

"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free to move?"

"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

Unf! Nice beta, my impressions:

In Response To: My thoughts/feelings (Midnight)

This beta completely blew me away, it's absolutely great. I have some suggestions to better it (I'm sure everyone does).
Move a little bit slower, the speed you run at now is a tad too quick, even though it's slower than UT's normal speed.
Have a "reduced Hud" that is just health and oxygen and motion detector. I run withouth high-detail actors on my ibook/500 to keep a high framerate, and that means that MR hud isn't transparent, so I can't see my guns because they are mostly blocked by the hud. When I turn on the hud, I get a 10-15 fps hit! Because of this, I keep it off. Is it possible you make a small hud option?
Make weapons in multiplayer do more damage, it seems that it's harder to kill people in here than in marathon. Specificly, the pistol, alien weapon, and assault rifle. No damage complaints on the other weapons, but make those 3 more deadly please!
lastly: Is it possible to make the fists hurt more when you run into someone and punch them, like in the origional? If not, the fists should be given a tad more "oomph". That's all of my bitching for now.
