Mod: Evolution of Combat Demo v3 (Patch)

Evolution of Combat Demo v3.

Expand Full Description & Credits

File Instructions:: There is a modification being created by the name of "Evolution of Combat". This modification , ladies and gentlemen is a gift from Serenity and a few other talented people who recieved their talent from God him/herself. Enough of the praising , let us jump to the details of this baby , shall we ?First off , let me clear some things up. You all probably know a lot about saber combat , right ? Well , I hate to burst your little bubble of hope but ... with all due respect , you have seen nothing yet. "Evolution of Combat" is just that what it means. Evolution. It changes A LOT , and I really do mean it , about Saber fighting system. We all recall being frustrated at some point for not being sucessful in blocking another opponents strike in a spar/duel , right ? What if I tell you that it gets a little easier for some , and a little harder for others ?Here is the thing , the new blocking system is converted from automatic , to manual. Yes , you figured correctly ! Using a set of movements and a few mouse clicks you can manage to avoid/block most of the strikes given from your adversary with some practice ( and a lot of it ).The offensive system has also gained some new bulk. We all got tired of having only 3 stances in the game at some point too. But do not fret , with this modification , you get not 5 , not 6 , but 7 amazing new stances , moves , katas and positioning. Also , I have to say it , the dismemberment is back and it has your name on it. They brought it back Texas Chainsaw Massacre style ! Though for you blood enthusiasts , they have not yet commented if it will be applied to the modification yet. Though there are some whispers in their forums that even the walk/run details will be corrected and adjusted for better and realistic acurracy.Furthermore , you might create a server of your own and fight with a couple of bots , I recommend it highly ? Now lets hear you guys yell at me for suggesting that. Again , why ? Well , aside from the bots acquiring a new intelligent AI system making their movements more realistic , and almost nulifying their random jumps and aimless running across the map , they give you quite a good challenge when it comes to saber combat. It makes you forget you are fighting a bot , and gives you a feel you are fighting Masashi himself. That is how cool the bots got upgraded.There are also a few new maps added. Ranged weapons as well as force powers got a new look , effect and audio. Which is neat when you get the urge to blast someone with a rifle or burn them to crisps with lightning. You also get a few more sabers , skins and blades .Also , this modification gives you higher understanding of the various forms ( even though they are extracted from the Star Wars universe , they are based on real life Swordsmanship ) and higher authenticity and professionalism to the school. I can picture students learning their swordsmanship skills on a WHOLE other level. Though it will be a hassle for the board of education to create new Tools upon which we all can be trained. Yes , it will be harder in the beginning to adjust , but it is highly possible. Be you a student or artisan , your knowledge will be enhanced tenfold.

Patch Notes:

Ok multyplayer 2 handed lightning is in.( Thanks to kimmy and respect for this one) Made some awsome new lightning effects to go with the 2 handed lightning.lightning now burns walls and floors and smashes walls and rocks on level3.TIP:lightning level 3.put saber away(select melee), lightning has 2 solid beams of electricity .if you hit an enemy with one beam in melee x2 damage .if you hit enemy with 2 beams of electric x4 damage +knockdown.defence:Walk and block(running gets you knocked down) lightning 3 block has higher dodgedrain.when you have no drain left you get knockdown or killed if low health. best thing to do:::: run like hell. fixes:: Refined slap At start of game bots dont have as much power(added experiance gains to bots to stop instant over power.
