How to get old version? GAME RUINED.

[NevAe]

I'm not sure when these physics updates that ruined the game happened but I want to know what versions were before the update and if it's possible to get them. (online or not idm).

Would'nt bother playing the game at all anymore if I cant get the old versions.
Feels sluggish with all type of movement and cant control punches and grabs the same anymore.

To any devs that see this, PLEASE explain to me why you felt the physics needed changes.
The game was fun because of the physics it had.

Please don't come here to reply with: "I don't know what you're talking about the game physics are fine".
If you're one of those people you're either drunk or never played the game before the changes.

The only other ways to get other builds of the game other than the ones listed on that thread are to of either had them saved on your computer (or find someone with those builds saved), or there is also this weird SteamDB website/tool thing that you could use to access any other build you wanted, but I don't actually know if that ever worked for anyone who tried it.

Lol dude, it all looks great in that video but you have to play to feel it.
The punches/directional punches and grabs used to work 10x better.

Do yourself a favour, follow these steps:

Right click Gangbeasts in your steam library.
Go to properties.
Click BETAS tab then select [LEGACY - Last Unity 4 build.]

Have a play around then come back here and be honest about your experience.

You used to be able to have power behind your punches if you clicked at the right times with your swings. If you spammed you wouldnt punch right.
Now it just seems like all you can do is spam because your punches go in random directions regardless if you are aiming your left trigger where you want them to go.

That video is me. I've played the game for quite some time. I have alot more control over my character now than I did before. Not saying I like the new physics, but some things have definitely improved.

In older versions simply picking up a knocked out player, or a hat would launch you and the object you picked up into the air, sometimes even killing you. I agree somewhere around version 1.4.3 or something? was the sweet spot, but things are still improving in my opinion.

The game requires more skill now.

I tried the beta and I really think I like the newer physics better. The beta wasn't even the version I thought it would be... I really feel like I have more control over my character, even in online laggy games :p. Moving around seems easier and I miss the new climbing, it's much better than spam jumping.

I do agree having to spam is annoying. But it's not that bad as long as everyone isn't just trying to kill themselves and drag you down. Kicking/headbutting has also become much more effective so I try to get people near edges, knock them out and then quickly try to throw them off.

^^^^^
New physics are much better, you can do things faster and more effectively and everything is more snappy and refined/precise.
The older ones felt like the characters were costantly underwater or something, they were really odd and IMO not too fun to play with; the new ones make the action a lot faster-paced and bouncy, they just feel much better!

you're all drunk
