An open note to person typing patch notes.

PLEASE be CLEAR as to what you are saying has been updated, given the confusion over new module and typo on using XP not GXP.

Also get together with all DEVS and ASK them for a complete list what they have updated before posting patch notes.

Shows the players you are doing something and addressing issues.

I agree, try to make the patchnote-text describe the changes in a clear way and refrain from making statements that could cause misunderstandings (like sensor and target decay modules helping LRM users against ECM, which is simply not true).

In fact, i'm not even sure a patch-text is required unless something important have to be explained. It would also be the safer route :)

EDIT: spelling

Sensor range lets you lock onto an ECM mech at 230 (tier 1) and 250 (tier 2). BAP also increases that range to 250, so if you use the two together you can lock ECM mechs at 300.Target Decay should hold the lock for an extra second or two, I haven't gotten it yet.

BAP do not work against ECM(ECM is counter to BAP not vv).But sensor module works as you wrote(iI have both levels).Yet I dont see why I have missiles with range 1000m and I am able to target at 250m.Its usefull for streaks and not LRMs.

BAP Increases lock range by 25%, same as the sensor range module tier 2. I've been using them since ECM was introduced to get locks out to 280.

ECM is a counter to BAP, when you are within 180m of an ECM mech, it does not work. Until they shut down, which is hilarious.

And another case in point with Email to players:

"Did anyone get the updated end-of-match screen?

It was slated for 15th Jan
http://mwomercs.com/...mber-18th-2012/"

You REALLY need to work on your communication skills and maybe have someone else look at patch notes and press releases BEFORE they are posted.

Yeah, I was looking around to see if they had put in another patch yesterday or something. The end game screen is the same as it was before.
