Hey guys

We'd love to provide you with patch notes weeks in advance, but as mentioned elsewhere in this thread quite often features aren't finalized until closer to the release date.

For example, during playtest we didn't feel the Vehicles and Weapons re-balance were quite ready for 1.5 so they've been pushed back, however other features will be seeing full release (squad finder, new WP rewards, updated NPE, bug fixes, etc).

Full patch notes/Feedback Threads to come next week, will keep you in the loop as soon as we get any more info. :)

Everything is as intended and working properly, spare for the small AR hiccup.

Just wait until the higher tanks come back; a call for balance towards AV can be called, but not any sooner.

Tell that to dropship pilots, and tankers that get smashed by anyone with 2 av's to rub together...

, as a heavy I'm not getting new content till 2014 so screw you guys, I'm going to blap some tanks ^_^.

It was just a joke.

1.5 will be a vehicle patch as intended.

The pilots and tankers you know must suck, because the RANDOM pilots and tankers that I have met have not be taken down by 3+ people using ADV or better swarms on them.

Same goes for when I going against them, if I don't kill them in the 6 shots fired at them from my swarms, I will never be able to. Because they will cycle their reppers, back away, have ground troops kill me, so on.

i don't know why everyone keeps expecting CCP to uphold their end of the bargain.

we all know for a fact that CCP has a poor reputation for keeping their promises and also their rep for causing so much bugs in a game after an update.

why are we all so surprised that their won't be weapons and vehicle fixes etc etc
heck heavies have been waiting for something new since the beginning.

Lol that just indicates bad AV lol, i one shot adv dropships, and completely control Tanks.

I have backed the dropship pilots for a good time now, despite me not personally being one. Until they (CCP) change the cardboard boxes floating in the wind into the flying death machines, I'll continue to stay out of the pilot seat.

Keep in mind that in beta, there were not as many AVers as there are now. The lot of them (the tankers) were all about the "HTFU" motto back then, even as they rolled over teams by themselves over and over again. It is Uprising 1.4 currently and most infantry are armed to the teeth with AV weapons as a backup for when vehicles come into play. What tankers are currently facing is the counter that has already existed. It was not as strongly executed as it is now. There are still some pretty damn beefy tanks out there, despite not being advanced or prototype. I've watch five people, all hurling AV grenades, get pooped on by a lone tank.

What is going on is the weak are complaining while the strong adapt.

I salute you tankers that stay strong and survive, despite you all being annoying asshats and destroying my giggle fits.

Above all. I salute all the DS pilots that have hope. I value your abilities, as I am an infantry unit needing a lift.

We want more. I want to go 40:0 without using my reppers. I want to drive with my stabilizied proto blaster. I want to be immortal.

I don't know why people assume by CCP letting us know their developing intentions, it constitutes "a promise".

People asked them to communicate with us more about upcoming patches, and then they get slammed by "OMG, you promised this would happen NAOW!" when they don't feel something is ready to implement.

Another fact we know, that they have moved to a monthly schedule of patching. I'm satisfied knowing vehicles will take a few months of patching, instead of the 3/4's to a year it would have taken on their previous development cycles.

Why aren't you?

Controlling tanks is useless if you aren't killing them, they can get around faster than you, unless you have vehicle to get around. You can force them from the forward flank, only for them to come around and hit your rear.

Also, you are one-shotting bad dropship pilots in ADV dropships. Good pilots would be able to survive your AV attacks.

Do you even pilot bro?

Do you know the sad state vehicles are in now? All it takes is one jerk with ADV anything to easily solo a tank. Why should a tank be soloed? Can't make destroying a tank require teamwork, that's not fair. But, require tankers to use teamwork to survive, but no teamwork to destroy tanks.
