I just got thru reading them and OH MY GOD! There's something in there for everyone. I'm very excited about these changes.

Double the armor on my Lightning. Oh thank you, thank you.

hmm, my first thoughts are that:

1) The thresher is going to be even more fun to drive than it already was
2) I am getting my Prowler cert back
3) Its about friken time they got the Striker under control
4) Gratz for the Phoenix buff. It was sorely needed
5) Looks like the NC MAX shield might be usefull
6) Looks like the VS Comet is really gonna tear shit up now
7) XP changes might make Defense worth doing but support roles still do not get rewards so Gal poilots, Infiltrators and the like are going to get screwed on XP badly
8) Pounder will be less of a Grief machine
9) Cheezy Reaver tactics got removed
10 ) FINALLY! an MCG CoF tweak! I hope its good. Hard to tell until I can test it
11) Another JH tweak. Hard to say on this one. At some ranges the JH was ridiculous for a shotgun so maybe its a nerf to damage at 30m or so. Will have to test this one
12) Pistol tweaks look great cant wait to start looting Beamers now
13) infils got some luvin on the jump restrictions removed
14) Lightnings are going to friken rock now

looks nice! I dont have any problems with it at all, maybe i'll try using those beamers I looted... And the changes to the MCG seem nice too also the VS are finally getting the attention I feel they deserve.

I have to add that these changes all look really good to me and look like they will remove a lot of CHEEZE from the game. I cant wait to get home and try it

Double the armor on my Lightning. Oh thank you, thank you.

Thank you, Devs. I love you long time now

[Hamma]

Very, very nice changes. It will take me a while to digest that doc tho, allot of info there

[Queensidecastle]

Time to sell your Striker certs and get a Lightning

[Ultimatedogg]

wow is the word that comes to mind

its clear you put a lot of thought in to every thing and this also proves you really care on balance issues and user feed back
thanks sporkfire

WO0ot! i love all the stuff in it, except no lighting buff

My Striker, my poor poor Striker...



Question for ya Spork, what about the ammo boxes for the Striker? Is it still one reload per box? If it is, I'll still be able to kill things nicely. Otherwise, the TR just aren't carrying enough raw heat to properly kill things.

You need to go back and read it. They're going to give the ANT and Lightning twice as much armor. Plus the 12mm is getting an up in damage.
