My 2 hundreths of an isk:
- Matchmaking obviously has broken the game. Nothing new here. But, I would like to say that with the limitations of what your results are, I do like the new interface to an extent. Might be nice to have a small preview of the available matches in FW instead of just dropping into one, but that's just a minor annoyance.
- I like the aim assist, or maybe just the hit detection. Either way, it feels much less random to me whether or not I actually hit someone compared to before. However, you do die a little too easily now, so some adjustment should be made. I would vote for getting rid of the 10% dmg boost as opposed to making the aim assist weaker, but would not complain if the aim assist was turned down a little (just a little) either. I'm in favor of more survivability and keeping the DS3 and KBM balanced instead of making it harder to hit people again for no real reason.
- The noises (glass and grunt) when you get hit is getting on my nerves. I'm 100% in favor of it being more obvious when and from where you are getting hit but there simply must be a better way to do it.
- Graphics and new structures are great, love them.
- Just to throw my name on to the list of logis who are really PO'd about the lack of health bars. I was not in love with the way the rep tool worked before, now it's almost more trouble than it's worth. What gets me is that this is the result of a solution to a problem that didn't exist. Who was complaining about being able to see the health bars of your own team? I can see why you would want to de-clutter the screen, but why not leave it if you are in a logi suit, or at least if you are using a dang rep tool!
- The switch from team to squad vision makes sense in some ways, but one would think with this level of technology you could still link up somehow to other squads at least. I don't think it should be taken too far, as in with droplinks supposedly going to be squad only, which I think is stupid, but that's another thread (which I will be starting soon - not tm.)
- On a related note, some in my corp have complained that the new map is too big, I don't necessarily agree, b/c if you make good use of uplinks and vehicles it's fine, but squad links only makes it a little less viable a solution.
- With squad vision only, scanners are suddenly a lot more useful, but you need to give us WP for using it somehow!
- Finally, one last word: LAZORS!! Burn the heretics, baby. They feel like they are in a good place now, I don't use them much anymore b/c I skilled out of them with the respec but they work again without being too "run away! run away!" Plan to get back to them once I fill out some other skills.
