Ok so I played for a while and probably played about 5 or 6 games.

Things I have noticed:

- The game is darker for sure. I am not sure if this is intentional or not but even with high brightness , its still very dark.
- I have yet to see any of the new assets, maps, outposts etc.
- I did play on the "Isolation" version of 3 letters on the outside with the bridge map. Kinda cool but felt more like domination (personally dislike domination)

Things I dislike:

-Vendor prices. 645 isk for a dragonfly blueprint!? Are you having a giraffe? 27k isk for officer weapons... again low, much too low.

- I have not noticed any performance benefits so far. Things feel much the same as always. I was hoping for a difference but I might have to wait till I play on one of the new maps or one of the notorious maps to really feel any difference.

- Aim assist. Is it me or are you guys being hit a lot more now? I play as a speed scout and I am being shot out of the air while I am falling from miles away, running in between cover and I dont know. It ~feels~ as if AA is more powerful now.

Certainly need to play more and do more testing but I think I will wait a while.

Everything Dies FUNNY NAME GOES HERE 1062	Posted - 2014.11.04 19:27:00 - [2] - Quote Still pumped after having seen many vets and old corp names appear on the player list during battles. One thing I instantly noticed was the increased number of dropships roaming the sky; it's been a feeding frenzy for my rail tank! Mixed feelings on the changes made to some of the maps--keeping the same map but changing it from 5 objectives down to 3 (though it still says 5 in the info screen) leaves a TON of space to roam around in. Definitely focuses more of the action on key areas... ISK is crazy now. First match I had something like 1400 WP and pulled in 2 million. Later match I had just under 3000 WP and walked away with 1 million or so. Hell, I joined one match towards the end (enemy was at 50% armor or so) and managed to get 425 WP...and pulled in over 600k ISK. The one upside to this is that I can run tanks with proto turrets and still make a profit if I lose one. Mike Patton is the greatest singer in music. Proof

I did made 600k in a match where I placed highly (for me that's a lot more than usual), but the rest of them have been only slightly above standard payouts. I am curious as to what is causing the high payouts? Is it assets destroyed or something or is it just a totally random bug?

Leadfoot10 Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 1977	Posted - 2014.11.04 19:37:00 - [5] - Quote Game seems a bit smoother now. Not sure about framerate helping hit detection, but more testing is needed. Recent balance hotfix was undone. Uncloaking delay makes virtually no difference in the game. Reduced scans when cloak is active is easily gotten past by just going out of cloak for a moment, then recloaking. All in all, disappointed in the changes here. I have a sexy hologram hooker in my quarters, and she pays me! I did notice I seemed to be dying a bit faster than normal, but was just assuming all the proto suits were the reason. I also noticed a lot more vehicles on the field -- both tanks and dropships.

CCP Ratatatatatatata said that AA can be tuned - they are looking at the numbers to confirm if it needs to be dialed down now. I am the Forgotten Warhorse, the Lord of Lightning

It appears to be a goof-up somewhere with specific item values that are leading to the high payouts; possibly dropships or proto gear? Mike Patton is the greatest singer in music. Proof
