hey dude! hope all is well.

do you think 1.4 is going to be a bust for vehicles? I was hoping they'd get it to a place where they could confidently leave it alone while they finally focused on other things. If they don't get vehicles right in 1.4, then well, this game is going to be officially stagnant.

Howdy.

I can't give you a date, because I honestly don't know. But it's not far off, that the dudes working on vehicles now are going to be doing a complete balance pass in (what sounds like) one go. By this I mean they intend to rework/rebalance every vehicle, and their AV counterparts. The fear of "removal for adjustments" did come up in this discussion, because we all know what happens when CCP does that . However, I'm assured that won't happen.

But, this will probably come sooner than later. Not 1.4 though.

The biggest thing we're pushing for is for them to actually converse with vehicle dudes before they make their deep dive. Reading threads is good, but without some level of engagement, the end result will never be as could as it could've been.

We're in the process of scheduling a meeting with the main dudes in charge of balance design as a whole, so we can discuss their balancing process and really beat into them how collaboration with the players is the only route forward to making dust the best it can be. In this meeting we plan to try to find out what changes are on the roadmap so far, how they go about balance currently, etc.

Of course, we'll come straight back to you dudes with as much of it as they allow us to say. But you guys will basically know what we're bringing to the table ahead of time. Our unrelenting crusade of "Talk to your customers and your product will be exponentially better"

:P

sagaris its all they need to bring

hell, they should bring back the black ops havs. make all the av cry.

agreed. but seeing those monsters roll through the battlefield deflecting everything from forges to swarm and av grenades was entertaining.

I mean the black ops tanks about two builds before chromosome. they were nearly indestructible. they had at least 3x the hp of a fully equipped sagaris.

I really hope to see 12k shields or armor tanks again.

In regards to the team now in charge of vehicles....

Go Wolfman GO!

high hopes and low expectations T^T you can't go wrong unless....well you can...but its difficult...like managing to scare off the girl (if you can call it that) creeping up at last call. well that is assuming he has been paying attention and/or been informed of the Vehicle user/victim QQ.......did I mention high hopes?

looks like this thread did it.(im kidding)

now if only they listened to everything we said.
