Who the hell wanted that...?

I asked a lead design on the one.

This is not going to be an answer you are going to like, I'll admit I didn't like it either.
Basically CCP believes that trying to spend time to balance for now or later is an issue for itself.
So example why balance sentinels and heavies now if we haven't brought out the second heavy specialization class?

Heavies are in a very weird position similar to tanks. They see good players 'spiking' the boards but the average player doesn't seem to know how to play or fit the heavy suits. There is also the issue of how to balance the smart heavy against its future cousins from gallente caldari and minmatar.

So to boil it down we need you guys to continue help give feedback.

Then ask them why they still want to balance things based on pub matches?

Tell them to look at corp matches and balance things from those. That way we might get them to do something about scouts, heavies and tanks.

When they say "vehicle handling is improved" what exactly does that mean??? less sliding around perhaps???

What have they done in regards to laser rifle variations? and what exactly did they do to "nerf" it? if its been nerfed at all?

When do they plan to open up more faction warfare space? (to conquer and everything?) why have they limited it to only one region from the start? is the player base too small?

How many new skills have been added? and how many knew weapons have been added? Any new types of variations to weapons?? (for example something additional to the sub veriations of the AR such as the Tact rifle, breach, burst....?).

Whats the outlook on a simple player trading tool? Plus how will they manage to refund our officer weapons on may 6th?? what exactly is and isn't being refunded??

Finally.... what is the beer like in Iceland?

Can they give us any information on MTACs?

Please?

Just a little?

First off: this is the right way to win over the community :D

First question: Will CCP be bringing us more smaller/medium content/bug fix patches post-Uprising, rather than saving every piece of content they make for the next big release? (I.E. Is it possible we'll see the next batch of content BEFORE the 3-6 month build?)

and Second question: MTAC's, short term, long term, or "eventually"?

......lol

PS: Judging by ur post "heavies in a similar position to tanks" does that mean tanking is still the 2-shot bs or is it goin back to when u actually had to work and use ur brain to get a kill?

Is vegetation confirmed in Uprising or will we have to wait 6 months for interesting maps?

Will we be getting chat-timestamps, an EVE clock or prone?

Where is the command structure (like the still-missing MCC Commander) and the compartmentalized command chats and proximity chat for other blues? This game will require a high level of communication so hopefully talking to our allies won't be left to OSMOSIS and PSYCHIC POWERS.

They corrected mouse DPI.

prob missed mine IWS

Eve clock is in uprising.

Comms I still haven't found the right guy yet
