Leading me to draw the conclusion that CCP would rather add Black Op Tanks instead of fixing one of the most basic, core gameplay feature of a First Person Shooter. The patch notes are...lacking. In IRC CCP stated that hit detection has improved (at least slightly) and that they're constantly working on improving that mechanism. There's a lot that didn't get into the patch notes but that doesn't mean it's not there. As a beta tester, I cannot base my opinion on hearsay, conjecture, and anecdotes. I will believe it when I see it or hear it from CCP. If CCP prefers to run its testing by having its participants guess about the features they fix, then I must say I am disappointed in the quality of communication. If you where here for the previous build replication you'll find that the current e3 patchnotes are just as lacking. Maybe they got 6k posting limits too you know? improving gun play would fall under 'general bug fixes'
Iron Wolf Saber BetaMax. 2867	Posted - 2012.08.11 14:44:00 - [2] - Quote I have. No mention 'communications skirmish was removed due to memory leak' is one case.
Iron Wolf Saber BetaMax. 2867	Posted - 2012.08.11 19:09:00 - [3] - Quote There are alot of other fixes not mentioned on the patch notes, for example after excessive amounts of yelling we managed to get them to update they boosted drawdistance even though before they updated that post they only declared it on the IRC channel.

Swarm launcher missiles now fly a bit faster to compensate for the new dropship handeling. Once again was answered shortly after patchnotes where posted on IRC channel when there was concerns dropships would get too 'powerful' As for the IRC channel anyone can join in the channel easy if they got a good web browser with flash some patience and this thread https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=22699&find=unread Remember #Dust514 is public no NDA covered discussions, #Dust514_Beta is the one we can share NDA stuff and is more active. Just when you join this channel dont pester the developers unless they indicate they want to be pestered with questions/feedback/clarifications :P Here is the other reason why they want to avoid using the forum. There is the 'You lied to us CCP!!!!" factor. Forums are a bit more pernament and less forgiving on information. An example would be CCP saying 'we fixed gun play' is entirely interpetive to some people. For example lets say you consider the only thing broken in gun play is how badly the scrambler pistol reload animation matches with actual reload indication. CCP may have gone in and fixed how people with fully automatics cant hit a scout dancing in front of hte crosshairs and called that fixing gun play while never touching the animation matching. Bottom line is, savor the current build while you can.

You can join IRC as well, you know. I'm sorry, I have a life and can't participate in a video game chat room 24/7 for news and updates. Remember, CCP isn't paying us to help them fix their game? Im paying ccp to fix a game I play!!!

Well if a certain number of people complain and a certain number of people rejoice you did something right because you have something to fix for the next round of patches.
