Hey everyone, I must apologize greatly for this. There has been a lot of work under the hood in preparation for 12v12. Part of those changes have been aggressive bandwidth optimizations so that users don't end up left out due to increased network load when 12v12 is turned on.

Some of these changes actually went live a couple patches ago, and involved sending lots of small little acknowledgements back to the server so that the server could intelligently compress what it sends to your client. Unfortunately, once again we appear to have tripped some unfortunate behaviour in the engine which we are currently trying to track down and correct.

In the interim, I have prepared some emergency changes which are being pushed to testing immediately with the intent to launch a hot fix. QA has good reproduction steps for this issue now, so we should be able to easily catch cases like this in future.

We'll update you all as soon as we have more info about QA testing and hot fix approval.

I would expect this to be part of a scheduled patch. Hopefully next week, but that is just speculation.

Nothing fixed... well, then i'll return to work (fun fact: coding ^^) instead of playing. Cause thats not as frustrating as headshot an atlas over 500m just to find out that it was a teammate and FFI was just not working - AGAIN...

Not disagreeing with no patch next Tuesday, but that director update doesn't say anything about 2 patches a month, it just doesn't have anything listed for the 30th. I seem to recall another dev post that did say bi-weekly...the one that said they are switching from weekly to bi-weekly
