The surprise is that that's all it seems to be at this point. I would've assumed the much talked about community interaction would've yielded improvements that were more apparent. Instead it looks more or less like a natural progression of the game - again, taking into account this is a very early look. A lot of the game's core issues (for me) are with the unnatural player movement and lack of player interaction, things that the dev team either (a) doesn't think is as much a problem as it is or (b) will be a difficult issue to get around. I'm floored that they still have those goofy, unnatural-looking QB animations going on 5yrs - that's ridiculous.

exactly.. you got me.. 5 years??!! and what has really changed in terms of animations??? I'm at a loss for words.. IMO they should of just focused on gamplay fluidity & animations, the core of the game..
