Animations in multiplayer are coming

[Camikaze]

The two versions should both be up to the same patch number now (.511, IIRC?). If the problem is that Steam just hasn't downloaded the patch for your friend, he should check his settings to see if automatic updates are on, or if he's playing offline. Because yes, Steam should have automatically downloaded the latest patch for him.

That they'll enable MP animations means, that they'll also do improvements on the general MP code, because currently it doesn't seem to work very well, and would probably work worse if nothing else was done. So I guess we can also hope for improved MP stability.

That's my thoughts too. I really don't know how they can put animations while the current mp state is barely playable.

If work is done, they'll also stumble upon possible problems and fix them (just because you see them), so I'm sure that this will have a positive effect on the whole MP part .
