@ eLhabib - Good call on the Leech Beam slowing you down more. I absolutely noticed the same thing, but forgot to mention it in my earlier post. I got the feeling that the effect of being hit by other weapons was slightly tweaked, as well...might just be me though.

Overall, the game just feels a little more real to me after the update...I don't know how else to put it. I'm liking it though.
