wait to play 1.2 b4 b*tching and moaning geez

Well, considering how none of the update addresses some major issues, I can already tell you how its going to go.

I think they are saying that there will be plenty time to complain about it after its deployed. Unless you are trying to be the first to complain, if so you are late anyway.

Caldarl Logi is still OP as hell?
Free LAV's still play mariokart with dropsuits?
Rendering distance for players still f'd?
Controls still useless?

Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.

Thought these would be a priority.

I am hardly a troll for pointing out your assumptions, albeit in a smart alec way.

Who let you into the Imperfects? Last time I checked, the following were considered high priority:

1. Weapon Optimals, effective and absolute ranges needed.
2. Nanite Injectors needing a fix.
3. Memory and CPU optimizations.
4. Sticky walls needing to be unstickied.

I am hardly a troll for pointing out your assumptions, albeit in a smart alec way.

Not complaining, I'm addressing a serious issue in a serious topic. Once again, trolls try to disrupt a topic simply because of my tags.

Gokart 514 is working as intended...

I think it's a matter of what got conveniently left out from the patch notes we should worry about. I'm expecting a huge nerf to the Flaylock based on how many people in the office use it and something to be done to all logis (instead of just the Caldari) because of ignorant incessant whining on here.

I'm worried about that. The min logi is easily one of the weakest suits, because it has half the EHP of a cal logi.

CPM been asking for numbers you guys are getting a nice blog of the new ranges at least.

Nanite Injectors being effective again?
A Memory leak problem being fixed that won't require a restart every so hours?
Weapon ranges being extended?
Projectile splash damage being fixed?
A Log Out Button in NeoCom?

I'd say that 1.2 is a MAJOR Improvement

If they touch anything having to do with the Minmatar logi, I'm officially done. That suit has been unchanged for several builds and the only buff it got was an extra 15% hacking speed and a free complex armor repper at level 5. It's the most balanced suit out of the bunch.

Let's look at those things you listed there, Padan:

Caldari Logi + LAV's: Changes that can be rectified server side at virtually any point when CCP decides to fix them.


Rendering distance for players: It's relatively unclear whether they've rectified this or not, or even have the ability to do so with only one month of development time. I have a very deep set feeling that the rendering distance disparities are a result of trying to improve graphical performance.

Controls still useless: Your tears are delicious? I'm really quite interested as to whether supposed "control issues" are really affecting a wide swathe of the population. Forgive my skepticism, but the controls themselves aren't nearly as high a priority as fixing whatever technical aspects generate the horrible hit detection, and by association the problems with weapons swapping and frame rate.

For a month's worth of an update, the results aren't particularly surprising. Uprising 1.2 is also a month's worth of updates while CCP are shifting gears onto a new once-per-month update cycle. Given those insights, the results of 1.2 aren't particularly surprising. Only half of what you've listed is associated with client side patches. Is it problematic that the LAV's and Caldari Logistics don't at least have discussion threads where the developers can discuss their mentality and progress with balancing efforts? Absolutely. It's not really associated with client side patches, though.

First off I get a kick out of your more comical posts, and you seem like an agreeable merc. However, that's what you get for wearing minmatar junk. I don't even think the word "tech" can apply to the equipment they field
I'm actually Amarrian under this disguise.

I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you over all the Minmatar ships being used for PVP in nullsec.

Caldari Logi <---- This gets balanced and by that I mean not being better than assults suits as slayers then Its the best patch evar!!

Lool they only care about selling guns on the market dodo. The game's core mechanics take back seat to new sentinal suit and other crap.
