Another hotfix? Cool! Can't wait!

I really don't approve of the velocity increase. I understand its useful for the TR, but it doesn't fit their factions niche. It'd make more sense if it had virtually no recoil and fired faster.

I'm curious as to how the projectiles are increasing in speed just because you're locked down...only thing that I can think of explaining it is having the rounds magnetically accelerated, but the prowler cannons appear to just be standard barrels.

Nice to hear about prowler and fall damage.

Fixes to Maniac mask aesthetic bug would be nice.

Concussion grenades still bugging out, hanging in air/not detonating, when thrown in tight spaces or downward.

A fix for invincibility on medic revives would be good. Should be limited to sunderer spawns. After taking down an NC MAX, my friend was shot down as it was revived and instantly killed again with no chance to take him out. He has also been revived with shotgun and taken out 6 guys before, thanks solely to invincibility shield.

It is necessary at sunderers, but lame from medics.

AA guns on Sunderer? Finally!

Ammo Packs not resupplying faction-mates. Clarify- I was on Matherson server on Indar & none of the available ammo packs deployed would resupply myself nor Outfit mates

What about NC hits not registering correctly/accurately with our guns? Our NC hit registration was fixed in GU2 (it really did felt our guns were hitting; check my GU2 feedback thread): http://www.planetside-universe.com/s...ad.php?t=52570

Then, the hotfix broke it again.

Check the NC posts on official forums, they know something is up.

As if they needed to make anti air any stronger, its silly enough a no skill br1 use annihilators to counter a decked out tank/lib so effectively... lock on missiles are too strong as it is without the lockon indicator.. we dont know how many / where they're from... its silly when you're getting MAGIC MISSILES from out of render raping your tank/lib.. this is so silly SoE, just make a damn infantry only continent..

Oh and about time they fix medpacks.

Hamma · 2013-02-07, 11:56 PM

I do agree, far to much AA in this game.

Varsam · 2013-02-08, 01:40 AM

I really, really disagree with making sunderers capable of equipping anti-air. It could potentially take the ubiquity, mobility, and durability of the sunderer and turn it into a permanent no-fly zone wherever there happens to be sunderers (read: everywhere). It also makes Skyguards virtually obsolete.

I also think prioritizing this release over fixing the lock-on bug (which is gamebreaking for ESFs) was a huge misstep. It adds even more variables to the air-ground relationship, which was in desperate need of tuning already. Was pretty satisfied with SOE's direction up til now.

I experienced a similar thing on Mattherson, but I don't think it's a bug with ammo packs. There seemed to be some significant lag occurring. I found that I had to stand near an ammo pack for several seconds before it started dishing out ammo.

Some time later I hopped on to my Jaeger character and didn't have any issues with ammo packs.

Canaris · 2013-02-08, 04:23 AM

awesome list of fixes there, this is why I lub our Dev's

Plus AA for the Sunderers YAY

PredatorFour · 2013-02-08, 05:21 AM

I actually didn't mind the lock on bug. Bit weird at first but once you notice the 'lock on' turn white before it disappears , you know a missile is on it's way. Makes you have to be more aware of lock ons and i like that.

Even with the nerfs... esf's are still farming cert machines you gotta admit!
