    Love the new features, however just reporting a few bugs.
    Crashes frequently after joining a server, not sure what triggers it, though bombs seem to in particular.
    Seems to have very loud collision noises.
    (I'm on a Mac, Running OS 10.6.8)

    With what Moo said ^ especially hitting bedrock is majorly out of whack, the noises that is. Also when you have a ping in excess of 200 when touched by a shield you go mental. But still can't wait to have fun with some corpses. :D

    Edit: Ooooo look 400 messages :D

    This is happening to me as well, I mentioned it to MM this morning and tried to get a video of it to show him (but wasn't successful yet)

    I got a video of it.

    Notice how loud the collision noises are going right to left over the tower, but left to right are normal. The left to right ones are usually accompanied by a very loud burst of static too, which really grates on you when you're trying to play the game. I think all mac users are having this issue since 353 yesterday.

    Here's a mediainfo dump of all the soundfiles (minus GUI and menu), wonder if you can isolate the problematic ones and whether sampling rate could be the cause of such a glitch. Opening a random sample of those files in a wave editor didn't reveal clipping (which is a good thing, really).

    P.S Shouldn't they be of uniform sample rate? I gather irrklang down/over-samples to 44.1khz anyway, but why waste precious CPU !

    I can confirm that this glitch is also present in the Linux build of the game.
