Phun Physics Phireworks!

Hello Heroes!

So I am one of those early adopters of Ageia's Physics card. Call me crazy, call me a fool even! Truth is I bought it for this game. Yes it's true. I spent that money just to make CoH look more pretty. I know, I know, but hell, I spend more time playing this silly bit of comic hero fun after two years than I do Bioshock,Crysis and UT3

So there's my disclaimer, heh. Now to the story!

There is a certain magic mission in the Carnie chain from PI that I have been hanging onto since I9. I routinely spawn it for 5 then run through it a few times when I am feeling the need to make a few bucks for my other toons. One of the interesting things I have noticed is that if you herd two groups around a corner, very often they will begin to jump over each other in an attempt to get around the corner. The end result is that they all end up stacked on top of each other and what looks like one demon is actually a whole lot more. Sometimes as many as ten or even more. If this happens it's really a kick to go in and slap em around with any PBAoE that you have as you will often kill 5 or more with one hit.

So the point is that when that happens the physics can be a helluva show.
