Reason to change

  • No one ever turn one screenshake after they know how to turn it off and the particle of each attack is just lingering there too much even tho the attack just hit once, nontransparent so blind the both the user and the enemy
    Magma imbuned Striking Gale: those particle last for like 3s even tho it aSingle-hit hitbox

How to fix this

  • Reduced the intensity of the screen shake and particle of each attack; make those effect last shorter, all of the particle happen at nearly the same time; make it slightly transparent so we can still see through.
  • WOM dont have this problem and maybe revert it : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLk7hlt0VBk&ab_channel=FireAntGaming
    (notice how at 1:05 self ult explosion lvl 10k with thousands of size but the screen shake and particle effect make it still visible to play unlike just a Striking Gale with 100 size and we cant see anything).
  • Maybe add a bar to choose the amount of particle; screenshake intensity; particle transparent and this could improve performance too.

:st3: never self rating again ig

:shaking_face: war is insane with magma, i dont need light to blind people

You should probably remove your self rating, a good amount of people would rate this low just because of that

what are the hell are you talking about

He has learned

oh my god shut up man it isnt that deep

at any rate this is something the bteam has been complaining about for a while now and i think it might be getting better in full release ? but this is a known issue

reminder that the devs are allergic to QoL /j

If you put star ratings on your own suggestion people will whine, bomb it, and not give a shit about anything actually written in it because they’re too busy complaining about nothing.
Like Bluefighter here.

I pressed the wrong button.
Basically what he’s saying here is: Single hit attack creates massive blinding particles that linger for ages and it probably shouldn’t do that.

i thought… effort is the effort to make the change not the effort to make the suggestion :poggers2:

You can have your rating back now

Argh, guess someone warned him ahead of time!
You foiled my plans

Rating this 4 stars because it’s a decent idea even if it’s been suggested a buncha times before

Also because people will 1-star it because you self-rated which isn’t a good idea but doesn’t justify 1-rating it without actually reading the suggestion. Fuck this system.

I mean the option’s there who cares if people use it.
Some people focus too much on things that don’t matter at all.

I agree with the idea that there should be a slider like the render distance one, but for particle intensity. I think it should scale from like 1/4 of what it is now up to the current particle level. Would also probably help a lot with lag, as bosses with higher amounts of particle effects (like Maria mainly) almost crash Roblox for me while bosses with more simple-looking attacks (Carina or Calvus, for example) work fine.

I think the current screenshake level is fine, it seems on par with most other games of a similar category to AO, I just keep it off on every game I play because it makes me dizzy

A good hand-full of incompetence will rate this suggestion horrible for the self rating, but you have my vote. Not everyone should have rights for rating suggestions :blush:

Honestly no downsides to implementing. Heck, might even reduce lag if less particles display.

True…

i feel like this really isn’t a huge issue because we can just turn screenshake off
i agree with the bit about particle amounts though that’d be a nice performance change

Yes, the person making it shouldn’t
