Shotguns are wonky in a strange way.

Sometimes well-aimed shots fail to connect, or hit for tiny amounts of damage at point-blank on a stationary target, other times you kill with what you'd expect to be a minor damage hit on the edge of your spread.

I haven't gotten a chance to play 1.4 yet, so I've been checking out what the community thinks of it. So far, reviews are pretty tough. I know CCP was excited about this, and so was I, but in order for fixes to be made, they need to be presented in an organized manner.

So here's how it'll work. Read through the replies. If you agree with something, like the reply. If what you don't like isn't in the thread, reply yourself. I'll try to update the main post throughout the day to show the needed fixes in order of priority.

Thanks!

Had posted this in another thread, but this seems a better place...

OK, there's a lot of good in the new patch.
The new maps are amazing.


However, I'm one of the people that really doesn't like Ambush. Yesterday, I queue for dom, I get a match in under a minute. Today I queue, I wait roughly 6 minutes at any given time, and then get stuck in an ambush.
Now, as far as I can tell, this change was to try and stop the pub stomping that was going on. I'm not a particularly high sp character, being around 4.8 mill at the moment. However, I seemed to be able to do ok in matches.
If the issue is with the people sub 2 mill getting repeatedly killed, then the answer lies in extending the academy period, with an option to come out of it if you want, not in changing to what seems to be a mildly broken system to match players.
In addition, myself and a few corp mates are also noticing that once you've had your 6 min+ queue to get stuck in a match type you didn't want to play, you're finding very unbalanced teams. ie 3 vs 8, 6 vs 15, 4 vs 15. These numbers are not made up, this is what we experienced.

Also, the noise when you get hit. Bit annoying, but that's maybe just me.

- Matchmaking needs to go back to "Choose Your Mode"

- Aim Assist is too strong.

- Shotgun hit detection still off. Very hit or miss regardless of where you actually hit.

- RDV deployment issues on new map.

why not make if official and post were the DEV said "feed back 1.4"

vehicles still cannot withstand proto av

DS flying is amazing, fluid controls, decent aiming. But AV is crazy.

The new maps and outpost are awesome, however the matchmaking and aim assist is a bit too much. But that's just my opinion.

Can we PLEASE stay away from hyperbolic language!!!! Only say exactly what you think is wrong.

"Everything else is ****!" for example really helps nobody. And if it gets a 'like' vote, those likes really aren't for a constructive idea.
