New Unique Effect?

"A visual effect now plays when a Unique item drops."

Well I thought I was gonna see something awesome like in Diablo 3 with that huge gamma ray beaming down! Buuut I found a unique and didn't notice anything new.. did I miss something? I was praying they'd do something cool with this but I have yet noticed anything different other than the sound when the unique dropped...
I didn't even realize there was supposed to be a visual effect. I just noticed the new sound as well, thats it.

Same.. But I read someone write on forums "I love the new unique effect!" soo I figured it was more than just a sound.. and it says "Visual" effect.. so Idk... :(
If you pay attention closely there is an orange beam that shoots into the sky much like Diablo 3's effect. (Not kidding) Here is a screenshot from /r/Pathofexile http://imgur.com/cDWQpXn Props go to http://www.reddit.com/user/DU66IE.

ahh wow.. well i haven't seen it! hah.. and i read someone say that it only lasts like a mili-second... i hope they fix it so it remains on the screen longer... like D3.. :/
Nothing new happened when a Unique dropped for me earlier. Weird.

it's reallyyy fast and disapears.. so you prob don't notice it.. especially if someone levels off the mob too, it like gets hidden in that huge yellow beam
hmm maybe I need to slow it down a bit

Yeah it does seem to happen rather quickly, and if I lag/spike at the same time the unique drops (which seems to happen a bit) I don't see the effect.

It is a nice addition though, when you manage to see it.

I dropped my third Death's Harp and it was the sound and the name's color that made me see it.

Too bad for the visual effect :(
I think it is better to let the orange beam until we loot the unique :D
