He's just here to see if he might get a good Gallente suit someday.

Check for any new updates

Look for the words armor or Gallente

Check if there was a buff

If there wasn't, repeat steps 1 to 4, while cursing CCP and creating 1000 well written threads*

If there was, praise the CCP lords

If there was a nerf, raid CCP Shanghai and Iceland, take over and replace the staff with DICE

*Threads may not always be well written

take over and replace the staff with DICE

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

*lopes back in to lair*

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.

Will the updated vehicle collision damage still allow HAVs to run over infantry?

*lopes back in to lair*

Yes they still can. Murder HAV!

Sooooo.......can we expect to see communication like this on a regular basis or is this a one-time thing because you have some time on your hands Wolfman?

Yes they still can. Murder HAV!

I wish I had time on my hands :-)

I saw that this was a good opportunity to cover a few important things all at once. I'd like to spend more time but it can be tough when there's so much work to do.

soooo still DUST RACER? the contact nades will help in PC but I still think flaylocks r wayyyy too useful they r still gonna out perform the SMG and ScP


this "balance" patch is a joke I expected more

So from what I understand, eHP of the suit gets reflected on the LAV as collision damage, correct?
If so, I think it should be 2x the eHP of the suit, so a heavy being rammed is a death sentence to the LAV, and more than one medium frame would mean you're heavily wounded.

Nope, the LAV will not receive any significant impact damage right now. If the changes we've made don't improve matters enough that's something we can take a look at. The first large scale internal test of them is tomorrow so keep your fingers crossed.

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.

Cheers

CCP Wolfman

Are LLAVs getting impacted at all? They're waaay too resilient to damage right now. Shield Resistance Mods in general need to be tweaked to prevent EHPs going up exponentially.

Only got one question:

"Homogenised PG/CPU"

Does this only affect Contact nades or nades in general? Was there any change in PG on Flaylocks?

It's just for the contact nades. There was no change in PG on the Flaylock.

Agree, we will deal with those guys as part of the full pass on vehicles and vehicle related whatnots
