Monthly update.

We get a game update every 2 weeks in Planetside 2

Nothing for the heavies

Not in this update.

so, sorry for coming across as a noob but everyone keeps complaining about aiming. What exactly is wrong with aiming? Please tell me because 1) I don't see anything wrong with it and 2) I can't find a single thread that actually explains the issue rather than just complain.

P.S. I like the update.

The aim was better a long time ago

I expected rapid updates to be light but this surprises even me. I'm concerned any real content is going to be saved for the next Fanfest so they have something to show at this rate.

Aimings gotten so bad when i see a fast assault suit or scout suit running, i have to aim behind him to hit him to hit his hitbox rather than him, theres also issues where the game overcompensates when you make slight adjustments while aiming, meaning the movements out the controller wont always translate to the same movements on screen.
This update was a few hard-nerf bats not thought out, and a buff to the amarr logi.
And a few unimportant glitch fixes. Oh and don't forget the shadows!...

and they're very much in the same vein, with 1.3 being a bit smaller than 1.2, and 1.4 potentially loaded with even more game-changing features than 1.2.

Well no shit. What do you expect from monthly updates.

Hi guys,

Hi guys,

I see a bunch of different things being mentioned here so I thought IGÇÖd quickly let you know whatGÇÖs going on with them.

Amount of stuff in 1.3 GÇô This was an intentionally short release to give us a trial run of the new processes we have put in place to be able to deliver updates to you faster. ThatGÇÖs why it might feel a bit GÇÿlightGÇÖ. 1.4 is the 'correct' length and consequently will have more stuff.

Aiming GÇô Aiming was worked on throughout 1.3 laying the foundations for the work me and Remnant are currently doing on it for 1.4. There simply wasnGÇÖt enough time to get it all ready and tested for 1.3. The pad and the mouse will be getting an update, testing is going well. IGÇÖll have a dev blog about this soon with more details.

Vehicle tuning and 1.4 GÇô work on this has started. However we donGÇÖt want to just make small patches and tweaks here and there as we have in the past. We need to take a full pass on vehicles/turrets/modules as a whole. This as you can imagine is a lot of work. It is a priority for us but donGÇÖt expect to see significant updates until 1.5. We need a good chunk of time to get through it all..

Murder Taxis GÇô For 1.4 weGÇÖve updated the vehicle/infantry collision and damage system. I retuned the damage completely the other day and so far in my small tests itGÇÖs feeling a lot better. WeGÇÖll be testing it in our internal playtests this week so we can see how it holds up with more players.

Other bits and bobs - There is also work underway on matchmaking, AFKing and red lining. IGÇÖm not working on the matchmaking so I canGÇÖt provide you with details there right now. IGÇÖll be involved with the redline and AFK stuff this week so IGÇÖll give more info on that soon.

Huh.
Wolfman is usually the silent one.
What made you come out of your CCP lair and finally communicate with us?

This.
This right here.
You need to relay to your fellow Devs and Superiors that THIS is what they need to do on a more constant basis.
Informing us, the playerbase, of what you guys have been doing, what you have in mind, when you expect work to be done, and addressing our concerns, in THIS manner, is helpful beyond belief.

Kudos to you Wolfman, and thank you for that.

Quiet feline. Let the wolf roam free.
