Enrico has posted some answers in response to yesterday's Developer update:
Some burster loving is coming it appears! Head on over to our comments thread to discuss the update.Cool. Will the option to forget all your certs always be available, or is it a one time thing?
This will happen on every major publish to the game.Thumbs up on everything! But do you think we can get a word on whats going on with fodderside?
Not offically... I'll see what I can do unofficiallyDoes PlanetSide Reserves even exist?
Yes - Abstively, posulutely!!!When you said were making some changes and putting the fix in, did you mean on the live or test servers? We really gonna see the Sparrow and Burster improved to Starfire levels?
Small tweaks to the test server now... Hopefully it will be in this next 3.11 publish. or in a publish soon after if it is not received well or if more work is needed.Burster.
Yes.Let's us know we're not being forgotten.
You're not being forgotten... And with me replying to you, I'm confirming that

| TyPhOOn2k | the tr aa max surely needs improvement... the flak of the max is definitely fun but the damage sucks | |

its NOT the same ttk as a starfire because it actually takes skill.... 99% of the VS have starfire certed..... It takes 18 DIRECT hits with flak to kill a reaver, I think. . . or maybe thats a mossie, but either way.. do you know how hard it is to hit an afterburning mossy/reaver user, 18 times... locked down... with a limited range of motion? Plus, bursters cant FLY.. now CAN they? The starfire kills faster than the burster... and it can FLY! DO NOT compare the starfire to the burster. The starfire is the utterly overbalanced Max AA. KTHXBYE. ----- As for changes, I hope they either A) Nerf the starfire, B) Buff the Burster, or C) Remove the VS. Oh well. Thats my 13 cents. |

BTW, starfires JUMP not FLY. Flying implies being able to be airborn for more then a few seconds. No one ever says "Chickens can Fly", yet they can stay in the air just as long as a starfire. I am sure you will now enjoy the comparison of a starfire user and a chicken.  The only fix AA maxes need is against libs. NO AA MAX is good against a lib at ceiling. Bursters are hard to lead, and the others can't maintain lock. Not to mention my biggest AA pet peeve....... WHY CAN'T A FRICKIN AA MAX AIM UP!!!!!!!!!! |

I think all the lockon AA should be scrapped. VS and NC are both overpowered It really does seem as if 99% of the VS are certed AA - everytime I roll on a tower there are AT LEAST 2 AA MAX's on the roof

| Majik | Well if they remove the VS, I wouldn't have to worry about budgetting my time between MMOs anymore. The TR aren't organized enough and I would feel dirty playing with NC weapons. | |

Going to a comment up there, it takes less than 1 clip to kill a reaver with the TR AA MAX. Any buff to make my just fine Burster MAX a beast, i'm cool with.

| WildEagle | when will you actually be able to re-cert? | |
| 2006-03-03 07:45 PM | ||
| Geist | Recerting would be awsome because when i wanted to change more than 1 cert at a time i had to wait 24 hors between each cert. | |
| 2006-03-03 10:13 PM | ||
| Hamma | Sounds like when this patch goes live you will have the ability to recert if you want to. | |
| 2006-03-03 11:19 PM | ||
| Zanduar | I have to check the burster damage but its NOT less then a clip. I'm pretty sure its 2 and a half clips as I use one often. | |
