Complete nonsense. And CCP has been working on hit detection here and there since forever. Nobody is ever satisfied with it, and everyone has a different opinion on it, except everyone agrees that it is bad.
Also, note that last time a major hit detection change was made, it broke all of the game balance, which is roughly based on how effective different types of weapons are in the current balance. Changing hit detection would actually make gameplay worse even if hit detection was better. And then we'd have to balance everything again.
(So realistically, consider that if you miss a hit, your gun is already balanced on the assumption you would miss some hits.)
Sequal's Back wrote:Honestly, I dont care about new content. Not that I think that they are bad (not at all -except strongboxes-) but I'd rather have this issue fixed than new suits/maps/weapons/whatever.
It's also completely different developer skill sets to create items, create maps, add new menus and options in the UI, and change FPS mechanics in games. There is not any way to trade doing X for Y in the manner you seem to be suggesting, as often different developers specialize in different aspects of the product.

There are also people who rather have the issues fixed first before more content is added. Then there are people like me who are at least looking for a balance between the two.
And every update has included both some content and some fixes. The next release will also include some content and some fixes.

I can see how someone might get this impression TBH. Strongboxes, APEX suits, booster stacking, instant boosters, daily missions, BPO reintroduction, loyalty ranks...
It's important that DUST makes money. DUST making money equals DUST still existing and getting made better.
But the last patch, strongboxes were a trivial item. Most of the dev effort went into the scan range changes and the equipment bandwidth system. Things like APEX suits don't even cost dev time to make, they're just database values.
Daily missions is actually meant to introduce new players to concepts they should understand, like hacking objectives, assisting with kills, etc. and rewarding players for accomplishing them. There is a minor AUR component (the re-roll), but that's far from the point of the system.
