I didn't know they wanted to make new facilities. And what bout that new flying cloaker thingy?

EarlyDawn · 2004-07-08, 06:56 PM

That's a while out.

Early word from Smokejumper is that one new facility style is going to be disbursed buildings without walls.

taht'd be fun.

Lartnev · 2004-07-08, 09:38 PM

Does this mean bases will now mean camps?

Tbh they've been hinting at it for a long time, ever since the rumours of changing the data structures to allow small filesize patches to change the map features.

Grrr......leave my Pulsar alone.

Lartnev · 2004-07-09, 08:53 AM

Smoke said they were reducing the damage degredation.

Perhaps they'll make it less powerful per shot than the guass in the process

Radaeron · 2004-07-09, 11:29 AM

bleh.. pulsar is absolutely fine.. i use it loads an dont see any way of improving.. also

if you buff pulsar, you gotta buff the other 2

Seems SmokeJumper's gone crazy and is spamming answers left right and center on the weekly devs thread starting on page 5. To summarise what he has said:

Pulsar will now be slightly better at extreme range than the guass or cycler. This makes it better at point blank and extreme ranges, whilst the other two are better in between
Galaxy is getting an improvement to the RoF of its guns. This is because not all guns can be brought to bare on an attacking aircraft and will now "have some teeth" in the words of SmokeJumper.
Prowler will have its 12mm chainguns replaced by 15mm chainguns
MAX balancing will be posted in a new thread by Sporkfire. This is because SmokeJumper believes it is going to be a BIG thread. All MAXs will see improvements, but especially the TR MAX units.

AND MAAAAAX!

EarlyDawn · 2004-07-09, 11:24 PM

Good summary.

Cauldron Borne · 2004-07-10, 01:53 PM

the gauss gun ought to be better at long distances, and ought to be extremly acurate until the recoil kicks in...

Lartnev · 2004-07-10, 03:09 PM

Who says it isn't more accurate?

EarlyDawn · 2004-07-10, 03:11 PM

Still nothing about the studder issues. Disgraceful.
