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.

Thanks for the Update RadarX

Hmmm, curious what was redacted...

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

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.

KILL THE BUGS!!

Have they actually stated exactly what "account wide" unlock means?

I want to get excited for it, but I don't think it will mean what I want it to mean. Like common pool weapons being usable on all characters so you don't have to upgrade your lightning, sunderer or liberator per character or if you bought the decimator or new AV turret... since those are common pool are they account wide? Or does account wide mean that what I bought for VS can be used by any other VS character I make... because that would be kinda lame since I don't plan to run more than 1 character of each faction. I understand faction specific weapons being tied to the faction... just mostly interested in common pool weapons. Also what about camos? because they are mostly common pool except for the 3 faction specific ones.

I might have missed the info if they announced details. So if anyone knows then please let me know.

I'm pretty sure that part was just a bit of fun he was having with you guys.

He doesn't really do stuff like that over on the official forums. I imagine that's because it's such a hostile environment over there. Don't ruin this forum, too.

10% (that's a link, by the way; hard to tell).

Just for clarity, when you say the next update, you mean like next week or the week after, or GU4 at the end of March ?

I personally am positively surprised that the update is only 170 mb. I was afraid it'd be another 800 or so megabytes to eat away at my hard drive space.

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

Hamma · 2013-02-20, 11:12 AM

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

None of these things are surprises.
