Does anyone know WHY they thought to fix surfing? I liked surfing.. anyone
think we have a chance in heck of getting it back? Other things I have
noticed..
Better "3d" sound support I can actually hear which direction a creature is
coming from or where a battle is. At least on an SB live
now get two resist messages on lullaby.. effectiveness of the song is still
slightly questionable given the second resist is far too common even on low
level lizard warriors outside Caziac.
Less flicker on some zone graphics
That's all I saw last night in about 2 hours of play.

Yes, I did -- I no longer 'surf' the landscape when running and playing
Selo's. They've
added animations so we now run and play a lute/drumstick.
