I've searched the DEV POSTS for "uplink" but didn't find any posts since the move to TQ about their behavior.
Are Drop Uplinks for squad only or the whole team? What about the new "no squad" situation?
Does it matter if the uplinks are militia, standard or hacked?
Does it matter if you are in Skirmish or Ambush?
I've seen plenty of contradicting info on the forums but nothing from an authoritative source. The descriptions on the items don't state it specifically. |

This is entirely speculation but I've seen some hints of it in recent games...
I suspect people who are not in a squad are in the "not-in-a-squad-squad"  . That would mean the drop uplink rules we've guessed before: drop uplinks for your squad in skirmish, drop uplinks for the team in ambush, hacked drop uplinks for the team in any mode -- will apply here as well.
Now that's a lot of guessing. It would be nice to know what other folks have seen in-game. |

This would probably be better posted in either Requests/Feedback or Training Ground Forums. If we can get a reply then we will know if these are bugs where [Bug] leading the subject line would be a better format.
I have noticed the level of detail in the overhead map has been dramatically reduced. I used to be able discern Reds wandering about and now they are rarely visible. I have no idea if these two observations are related however.  |

well it is asking for technical support.
there is no clarity on how the equipment works. |

that isn't a dev post and is about as worthy as any other nonsense people are spreading. |

yes, i put this in "Technical Support/Bugs" because i'm looking for technical support, not a request for a new feature.
i wanted a single thread looking for DEV answers on 1 thing.
@G Torq : there are lots of posts by players saying contradictory things. some say it is, some say it isn't, some say it was but isn't anymore. that's why i'm looking for a DEV post to settle this once and for all :) |

Then wait patiently for the next Dev Blog, where they give updates.
There has been a metric sh*t-load of posts on this topic, so I'm preeeeeetty sure that CCP is aware people want more information on the mechanics of Dust in general and on specific topics such as Drop Links.
I would even go so far as to speculate that CCP is aware that there is no formal,up-to-date manual for this (not-yet-released) game currently.
Creating the 103rd post about it is not helping, and serves No Purpose but to spam the forum and annoy people.
Anyways, I posted the above based on my best recollection of previous statements. You are welcome to try testing the mechanics with your corp/team mates. If you determine it is incorrect (i.e. in a controlled setting), then let us know - until that, stop repeating the same questions over-and-over-and-over-and-over-and-over....
Final note: You can submit a petition to CCP for more information. It might not work, but at least you're more-or-less guaranteed some kind of response from CCP. |
