Not really. You can only do so much in a monthly cycle and they spent some time in the beginning of the current one fixing issues from the previous. I'm liking what they have showed us so far, pretty good and important stuff, but as far as bigger changes go I'm expecting one for every two patches.

Not that I wouldn't like to be surprised.

New weapons were pushed back to 1.6. I'm betting that's the closer content that we will have, together with vehicle changes and stuff, depend on your definition of content. If they were adding any other new content in 1.5 (weapons/suits) I believe we would have heard about it by now.

But like I said, I wouldn't mind being surprised. Like, Amarr light frames...

lol

Don't even start with Amarr HAVs. I want them so bad.

At least I got time to finish my infantry skill tree until they are released.

What good is having good core gameplay if you have nothing where you can see it?

Also: When is the core gameplay good enough? When everything is balanced? Won't happen. Ever. Too many items, too much new stuff coming along with new patches.

Of course we are getting shiny new toys and maps in the forseeable future. But I'm growing tired of capturing points. No matter what weapon I use and no matter on what map I play. I want something new to do.

You can't work on core gameplay or content exclusively, they both need to keep coming. Problem is if all you work on is core gameplay then there's nothing unique about the actual game, you just have generic shooter. There's plenty of FPS games out there with great core gameplay, so why would anyone want to play a game that is still working on core gameplay when it doesn't offer anything that the other games don't?

And here's what I don't get, CCP says they're not intentionally holding back racial dropsuits and vehicles, but we already have heavies and lights and tanks and dropships. How would adding the other races' version break the core gameplay? What's so different about the Amarr and Minmatar vehicles that they have to wait for core gameplay to reach perfection while it's somehow ok for the Gallente and Caldari ones to be there now? Say what you want, but I've heard nothing to convince me that CCP isn't arbitrarily holding off all this content for one grand update in the future for marketing purposes. That's fine, but be honest with it.

The lack of racial variety in a game centered around four races really irks me.
