Enrico has posted the Dev activities for this week.
Hello All !Great news - AA needs some work in my opinion. Head on over to our comments thread to provide your feedback!
This week we're working on one of your favorite subjects: AA Max's. We'll be making some changes tomorrow and I will post on it after the fix is in.
Also, we've added the OPTION to re-cert all of your certificates if desired. This will not be forced upon anyone that does not want to forget all of your certs.... but if you did.... It will be there for you.
Continuing changes on UI this week and should have another build for you to play with over the weekend.
Thanks for the help and see you online!

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. | |

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. | |
