if i may?

reducing the damage on breach ARs is perhaps not the right way to balance them. they already lose DPS over standard variants as is. a low DPS, low recoil, automatic weapon is a pretty standard piece of an fps. perhaps INSTEAD of further reducing the dps, they should have the hipfire acc returned to normal. i would say THAT is what makes them break the mold. they are better at range and due to hipfire ARGUABLY better up close. they "should" be better at range and worse up close?


also, i hate vehicle spam as much as the next guy, especially dropships. but flaming vehicles doesn't seem quite right if you intend for there to be 2 independent schools of tanking and repair? what is a shield tanker to do if he catches fire? don't get me wrong i feel that shield tanking has had the upside til now what with the fact that they recharge, and that a shield vehicle can get speed or damage out of his low slots, whereas an armor vehicle gets... a spawn? out of his highs. so if this is how you plan to balance them then... ok i guess, but it seems off.


i like the rest, or am at least curious to try. i'll miss being able to self rep with a repair kit but oh well.

Maybe I missed it but I saw nothing about REs being timed delayed instead of insta boom.

- Added the cortex screen to the remote explosive
- Cooldown between remote explosive throws has been extended

- Hacking now possible within a 360 radius

Aside from that, there is no reason a burning vehicle shouldn't take damage, that would be like if you lit your hand on fire and your skin didn't melt.

keep your reality out of my videogames -.-


from a BALANCE perspective, this hurts shield tankers worse than armor tankers. now i see shield tankers as ahead, so it might work out, but reality has no place here.

i mean hell, they could just REMOVE the flame animation from low armor vehicles if it bothers people that much?

It's bad for Armor Buffer tanks but considering the nature of this game's fast pace - I don't honestly think anyone uses Armor Buffer anyway. It's more of an Eve Online thing.

Acutally I think its a shield tank nerf.

also did anyone else have a jaw drop moment when they read "breach forge gun" ?

There you go.

=== Dropsuits & Modules ===
- Increased armor HP on all Armor Plate modules

=== Vehicles & Turrets ===
- Vehicles now take continual armour damage once they catch on fire.

=== Vehicles & Turrets ===
- Added Black Ops HAV

Maybe I missed it but I saw nothing about REs being timed delayed instead of insta boom.

I did, and let me tell you, boners were popped.

Didn't see anything about putting a cap on vehicular ammo

Update: the draw distance for infantry and vehicles have been increased, should now see up to 3 times as far

Just for Dropsuits?



This is VERY bad for Gallente...Unless the fire bug is fixed so a perfectly healthy tank don't burn , just because it's shield is gone (as is always the case for Gallente)
Considering all the other bugs and problems that could have been addressed, this is a puzzle.

- Skirmish Mode 2.0 -¿C New improvements made to the skirmish mode allowing more balanced combat

- Updated Plateaus megaterrain layout and integrated with the Galaxy seeding system

- Increased the optimal range for the HMG
- Reduced overheating speed for the HMG
- Burst and Assault HMGs

Screen shaking when getting shot at?

Looking forward to trying out the new features though.

It says dropsuits and modules, so I'm thinking modules = vehicles

They did the fire thing to respond to a complaint I had about my Eryx being in flames for 5 minutes yet in full shields. This way, apparently it would die after a while, fixing the illogical situation I was in. Just not in the way I had hoped. Hopefully they adjusted when things get into flames now as well, we shall see. Unless they changed things, armor reppers can stop flames.. but shield reppers cannot. In eve, you were in flames when you enter structure, but I don't see them adding structure if they don't this next update. Armor tanked pilots shouldn't worry about this as much as shield pilots do.
