There was this post...
...and another one just like it.

As of right now our prior experience has taught us that a new build usually releases every six weeks from the last. We are nearing that six-week mark but that is not a guarantee as CCP reserves the right to delay it if anything goes wrong. One sign that the new build is coming in the next few days is when CCP posts the patchnotes just a couple of days before we actually receive the new build. |

As far as speculation, there's that double whatever 50% off stuff until the 26th. So it won't be before then. There's an EVE expansion on the 4th of December. Maybe then. But we're due for an update, so "soon" is all we know. |

Yeah we are a bit beyond the norm on this one ... the tournament ended about the 6 week mark.
And now this isk bonus and vehicle sale rubbish which goes nowhere towards anything other than lining the pockets of the vehicle specialists while there is still very little proto or even advanced AV to be fielded ... fact of the matter is ... vehicles spec faster than AV and always have done.
So no new build at least till this week's mess is over. |

Up until recently this next build was supposed to take us to tq and be the first official open beta, with the hope of launch shortly after, so this next build could have quite a lot of new features, and a nice polish we haven't seen yet.
But since they have pushed it back who knows? |

specing in to AV is way easier than specing into HAV or dropships |

Definitely. But what bugs me is that as far as speccing into vehicles, it takes far less to be able to use logi dropships than logi LAVs |

And what are the pre-requisites?
I've done both and I can tell you for a fact HAVs are quicker to spec than AV.
The main reason being ... if you've any kind of driving skill you rarely die and you kill plenty plus you get kill assists for any gunner kills which are usually plenty ... so we're talking top of the leaderboard every match and the highest possible sp reward from every match which you just plough straight back into your HAV.
AV on the other hand is generally at the bottom of the leaderboard getting the lowest sp rewards because they spend the entire match trying to get into position to have the upper hand on a vehicle only to be killed by it or infantry on the way. The only kills are from LAVs that don't bail out and the odd HAV that screws up and gives you the chance to take it out. Aswell you don't get involved in hacks and you don't carry injectors or uplinks because you need hives, so best you might get a team ammo supply now and then.
On top of getting the least sp in matches you also need to spend those points in more than your specialty ... to stay alive long enough to get near the vehicles you need to be skilled in anti infantry aswell so that means a sidearm with sharpshooter proficiency to 3+ before you can suppress even basic AR fire and all the same dropsuit, shield, armor, sidearm and light upgrades and rapid reloads ... the list goes on ... but basically ALL those other skills you have no need for in a vehicle.
As I said I've been down both paths several times and it's FAR easier and quicker to specialise into vehicles |
