More things in the patch SOE did not mention

[Lonehunter]

Every time there is a patch SOE always adds someting with out saying a word about it. This time, it was explosions. Grenades now make big clouds of black smoke, this includes the Pounder. YEAH BABY!. Plasmas explode differently as well as Jammers. I think the new jammer explosion is pretty cool. The rocklet also makes clouds of fire & smoke when every rocklet explodes. The Striker emits a flame burst when it fires but it is VERY un-detailed and will still probably be fixed. The HART now has the same corny fire effect on the bottom of it when dropping.

Just adds to the sizzle baby

Yea I saw some graphics tweaks - very nice. Those usually arent documented.

As for the gameplay issues, the vehicle timer being long wont be in live. And there were a few other bugs, nothing game stopping. Overall looks like it will be a good patch

This patch realy looks to be good, i haven had a chance to test it, but i might later. I just hope the FPS patch doen't make my FPS drop even more.

[Rayder]

HART is 5 min. i think

[STEALTHKILLER]

Yeah, like in the patch before this one, they made jammers take out vechicals guns, very nice.

[Hamma]

Its still not known if that was intentional or not, I think its BS

[Jagd]

People have been using jammers on my tanks the past couple days. What a pain in the ass!

[Rayder]

Really? Jammers take out guns?

[dscytherulez]

Yes, jammers take out enemy vehicle weapons, and it is truly annoying...

[Biohazzard56]

Maybe, it was part of the FPS improvement to lower CPU demands

[Indecisive]

According smoke a few interviews ago jammers are supposed to disable the weapons, it fluxates per patch for some reason though

[Rayder]

Found some interesting stuff, apparently, your not allowed to use your favorites to switch between the same armor (at least I couldn't), and it's annoying.

Ex. I have my rexo on, and I want to get more ammo for it by using the favorites tab, instead of clicking on the favorite, I now either have to use a fav. with a different armor, or switch armors.

There was something else I found but I forgot.

Check out the options now; there's settings for everything from automatic ranges indoors and outdoors to text color. Very cool.

I don't know Hamma. Now Pounder grenades make a big cloud of smoke. I don't think this is just an effect, I think it is a bonus. Now when we spam those nades down hallways they DEFINETLY won't see a dang thing. The hall way will be nothing but black smoke.
