We will be releasing a patch to Test Server today that includes the following adjustments. I will announce when these are live:
1) The Lightning now features a 360 degree turret.

2) Medic Radar: When an advanced Medic has the Medical Applicator equipped, they will be able to see the location of corpses that have not yet been released on their overhead radar. Dead players who have not yet released their corpses will be able to tell if a Medic is nearby from the overhead radar.

3) Support Classes will now display an icon overhead.

4) Hotspots will now require ten people to be involved in a battle to create a hotspot, rather than 6.

5) The nano dispenser fire effect has been changed.

6) Most explosion sounds are really 3d now, if you move their 3d position is updated accordingly.

7) Performance monitor can be toggled using Ctrl + .

8) Lasher refire time reduced to 1/4 second from 1/3 second, lashes more often and in a slightly larger space.

9) The Mini-Chaingun's maximum Cone of Fire has been reduced. The Cone of Fire now blooms more slowly and starts building later in the burst.

10) The range of the Flak Cannons on the Skyguard has been doubled.

11) The Thresher's Flux Cannon damage has been increased by 50%. It's range has also increased 50%.

12) The Thresher and the Marauder have had their armor boosted by 1/3. All Medium Assault Buggies now sport the same amount of armor.

13) Empire logos on the HART shuttle have undergone some cosmetic changes.
