The only thing that stands out to me as a mistake is the automatic inertia dampener.

I can't recall ever hearing a complaint that the inertia dampener was too difficult to use as it was, and would at least like the option to switch it to manual.

I agree. Only upside is it saves a player from lagsplatting.

But i imagine there are very few mercs who like giving up the control. I think it takes away from the game just a little bit. I want to be responsible for my own splats, tyvm.

That initial drop hitting the dampers a fraction of a second before impact was good gameplay and factored in the early objective rush gameplay for scouts.

I would like this mechanic to save me from lagsplatting but not selfsplatting. Is that possible, CCP?

Not to mention those occasions when one is able to push an AFKer out of the MCC. What kind of lesson does it teach them now?

Please provide general feedback in this thread once you update your DUST 514 client. For issues on the Uprising 1.10 update, please use this thread. Thank you! Map game play issue with open ended Giant Crates,The ledge on the bottom makes your merc stick to it, i think it should be smooth walking going into a crate ,You have to hit jump to get in over a 3" ledge. Fixing things like this will help with the dust experience. So true. When i first encountered the container ledge issue on the new maps it was a real surprise and a real letdown. It's honestly something that i expect to be at the top of the fix list for every patch but it never is - was hoping that since this is the first update since the new maps released it might make it into 1.10. What are the technical issues standing in the way of fixing this immersion-breaking and frustrating problem that truly sullies the player experience? My belief is that when new players who are giving DUST a try encounter problems like this it magnifies any other smaller issues they might have with the game and pushes them towards ultimately rejecting DUST.

Would be tempted to bonus wins over WP a bit more in the payout structure, just enough to educate/remind new & vet mercs what they're getting paid for. PSN: RationalSpark

I was really looking forward to this update and I was not let down. I agree. Bugs/teething problems aside, the game also played well for me this morning for the for matches i played. Maybe just luck of the draw, but my galscout felt much stronger than my minsault this morning. PSN: RationalSpark
