If you mean skill points say "skill points" not "skill"

Their meaning is exactly opposite of each other.

anybody else got anything to add?

Racial suits were never intended for this release.

30 fps or more? LOL can't be srs...

Can't agree with all the cons.

30 fps or more? LOL can't be srs...

add RDV speed to ur list... any heavy who runs a skirmish or domination will appreciate this improvement...

Sounds like CCP did a decent job if the heavies are liking it.

So far i'm liking 1.2. The game feels a lot smoother, and the new options added are nice.

List of pros

Hmg can hit from a distance now, not doing much damage but can scare an enemy off.

Snowy maps are really cool. Wish it fell from the sky though.

Logout option is very convenient.

Frames per second seems to be 30 or more at times.

Aiming is much smoother.

market looks different but in a good way.

Lav's are slower so av has more time to react.

New performance options are nice to have.

AV now shows how much direct hit damage it does.

Splash damage seems fixed. Maybe some MD user can confirm.

texture loading time is improved.

Headshot noise is cool. Can be loud, i believe turning music volume down will make it better.

Increased RDV deployment speed and improved the intelligence of the RDV AI. (Awesome change.)

Cons

Shield recharger new module thing requires no skill points?

Saga II is miles better than Sega I and requires no skill points and is cheaper.

Shields are still better than armour, new armour mods quite useless.

Matchmaking is still bad. You're either dominating or getting wrecked

The better hit detection gives scouts an even harder time to move.

Close quarters combat is still a little iffy. But better than it was before.

Still don't have all the racial suits, maybe next update?

Still some minor bugs, including getting Dc'd.

LAV's are still a problem.

Caldari Logi still rules supreme on the battlefield

All in all a pretty solid update. New feature like the logout and the performance tuning are nice. Items needing balancing is still an issue, Shields are still better than armour instead of being around the same and making it more of a personal choice not an obvious one. New ranges are really cool. i give this update an 8.5 out of ten

I was going to do my own review for the Heavies like usual but I think I'll hop onto this one.

I agree with all of N1CK's comments and have a couple of my own to add:

The Commando dropsuit is quite good, I was worried about it's lack of slots but I have transferable skills from being a career heavy and found it very flexible since I could quickly hammer LAV's and other vehicles with my SL and then drop back to my SR for infantry. The lack of a grenade slot is a hinderance but it's all part of the balance and later on there might be a different racial versions with one.... All in all I like it.

The new Armour modules are ok but I was under the impression that the Reactive plates would bestow damage resistance on your armour which would help with armour tanking. However I believe the Reactive plate were made with the Commando suit in mind since it has limited slots allowing you some extra armour an repping with only a minor penalty to movement. The Ferroscale plates seem quite good with reasonable armour boost for no penalty to movement but I've yet to equip them.

I found the gameplay a lot smoother however there were delays to me deploying at times but this was isolated to specific games and I can't confirm what this was yet.

anyone know if splash is fixed?

Scrambler rifle or Sniper rifle?
