Why is it called a GU? It's a Game Update that is adding new content. Yes unfortunately the empire specific Rocket Launchers weren't quite ready and the [redacted] also needed a little more time but you can expect to see them in the next update or one after.

Hmmm, curious what was redacted...

Orbital Strikes maybe? Seems that could take a long time to get the balance ideas worked out well.

This mini update make me sad. Still nothing about meta game.....

There's no reason to be sad: www.planetside2.com/roadmap

None of these things are surprises.

I wouldn't like to be nitpicking but why wasn't the last hotfix been called Game Update if they added AV MANA turrets?

"Smedley also tweeted early this morning that Server Merges are incoming next week"

He said "Info coming by Monday", not that they're coming next week unless you know something I don't. Sorry, just don't hype us up or anything.

That's cool. I didn't have any station cash to spend anyway.

Just received an email from a buddy saying its been bumped to Thursday. ANyone able to confirm?

[phungus]

Good list of stuff

I hope they move up command UI priority. There needs to be better structures in place for platoon leaders to give commands, and recieve information, and what would be incredibly useful would be specific commands/waypoints for the platoon commander to set for air units and armor.

Ah who knows? Who knows? Apart from the devs I mean but for everyone else...Who knows?

The redacted thing was probably account wide SC purchases, but I have no idea why he would redact that. If SOE decides not to put that into the game, I'm done with SOE.

1. Make assumption.
2. Make assumption that the assumption is not going to happen.
3. Threaten to leave a game due to assumption getting removed by assumption.
4. Profit.

If it helps to reinforce how account bound purchases are the single most important aspect of why I am sticking around, despite the frustrating, buggy, crashing clusterfuck that is this game, then so be it. SOE needs to know the limit of my patience as one of the few ppaying customers ($85 in SC and PS1 sub to get into beta early).
