Well, wind is way harder than rotate, so if we replaced it, the game would be very boring because i am a pro (not to be annoying but yea). So if you want rotate back, i feel it's like we have to duplicate wind then fix it to be rotate again.

I want them both, take out blink instead.

tbh i find rotate more annoying than wind so it's easier for me now C: and i swear i still get speed + short attacks even though they said they're gone..

rotate is way more annyoing than wind. I think they should bring it back and take out speed because the transition from fast speed back to normal is weird and glitchy

You guys are fighting like crazy.

If I may add some clarifications...

Short+Speed is still here because there's a bug with the random duration of the powerups, it shouldn't happen and hopefully we will be able to fix it very soon.

We added a major optimization of the arrows, that doesn't allow the old Rotate anymore. It's a bit techy, but the arrows were previously drawn in Flash, in vectors, so we could make them spin and everything but it took a lot of resource because even if the arrows are light, vectors are hard to calculate for the processor. So, we made the arrows still images, in "png", bitmap images. But we can't make them spin anymore because that would cause the game to have to create a png at each position of the spinning arrow. Way too laggy. We can't pre-render them either because there are too many colors and it'd take too much time to do it all at once.

That's why we introduced the new Rotate, or Tornado as some like to call it : we can only make the arrows slide around, from left to right and up/down.

We also realized but too late that Tornado+Speed was impossible... and Azrou banned it too on our local version, it should be updated on our servers tomorrow.

All in all, I like this Tornado variation better because it messes less with my mind, I only have to pay attention to the bottom of the arrow interface. Yes, I think it's easier than old Rotate, but we just couldn't keep old Rotate considering half our playerbase was lagging too much to be even playing.

ACTUALLY NO

Add it back and keep the wind. I like rage quitting it makes the game more fun. :)

I think wind and rotate should coexist.

Sorry, may I clarify tornado refers to the disaster of wind+speed. It's unfortunate about old rotate though, it was starting to get fun:c but I agree, the new one's easier.

Wind is weird but I think I'm getting used to it. When we had the old rotate, it also required paying attention to the bottom line, like, looking at the empty still arrows and waiting till something comes to the line, whatever it was (they were spinning, hey) you had to press what the still arrow showed. Not that hard for me.

Actually I dislike blink even more than any of these two; I don't have epilepsy but it makes my brain hurt and my eyes turn off for tiny bits of seconds and that's enough to lose a nice combo ;-; Same happens to me while driving on a sunny day along a line of trees - the blinking light makes me feel like on drugs.

lol i dont get that feeling with blink but i totally understand how you feel about the driving part xD, it normally doesnt happen to me but I had that feeling once or twice when I was driving and I totally get what you mean now. Best analogy to describe how you feel tbh

oops someone already said it

i like the new attack, it's a lot of fun. i didn't like rotate because it always threw off my accuracy

I like wind a lot more than rotate. Rotate really screwed with my head.

I love wind. Rotate confused me a lot. Glad to hear wind x speed is going.

I thought I was gonna get brain damage from all those spinning arrows, I couldn't get used to it not even for a bit.

I love wind too, and I'm starting to love it combined with speed... Makes it kinda exciting and it's not really that hard.

NO

Just no

Rotate was way too confusing, and I like the new wind attack better. It's not too easy, but it's not nearly impossible either and it doesn't mess with your head as much as rotate did.

Granted I do feel a tiny bit sad that rotate has left because I was just starting to get a bit better at it, but I think I can live with that.

We can settle that now. I think this crisis needs to be stopped before things might get worse. ^^' Not to backseat or be rude, but could you lock this poll. Please and thank you?

Sentinel: Threads won't be locked if there is a discussion going on.

I find this new rotate easier than the old one.

As long as the rotate doesn't go with the speed im fine o_o
