A little scary IMO and does this signal any need for better oversight on changes, because things like this seem to happen often.

Someone said it earlier, but keystone cops anyone?

Read my lips! We made NO changes! --Love Paul.

PGI is not going to tell us everything that goes into patches as some of the updates in patches are for future features. Does everyone remember the UI 2.0 patch? The UI 2.0 patch was much smaller then the previous patch. Most of the UI was probably in the previous patch. The patch notes give us active features, the patch itself could contain all kinds of things... including Clan tech effects that got mixed with current IS effects.

PGI keep us informed so we can at least focus on direct issues to complain about as some out there wont just complain some will try to replicate and send feed back.

Now lets all take a deep breath stop complaining, save our energy for the hotfix and all its real and imagined screw-ups.

If you think the only bugs in the game are missiles you are sadly mistaken. The game is totally screwed up right now. The damage taken is as if you don't have any armor and the damage done is as if you are shooting spitwads. The gameplay is totally out of balance. Shooting guys in the back they take no damage, e.g. - Stalker at 84%, 2 ERLL's and 2 AC-5's to the back, still 84%, again, still 84%, again, again... 84%. It is very NOT fun to play when the damage registration is that screwed up, and even worse when you die by headshot or shouldering in ONE shot, which happens to be the FIRST shot fired 2 minutes into the game. I have half a mind to quit playing for a week or a month until PGI fixes this mess.

These cannot BOTH be true.

Well, it could be true from his perspective... If he is having a hit registration issue that is affecting him but not the guy shooting at him.

...rather than saying "THERE IS NOTHING WRONG" *cough*paul*caugh*

To be honest, Paul didn't say there wasn't a problem. He said they didn't make any [intentional] changes to missiles.

Well, exaggerations tend to make that mistake.

I'm thinking you guys should bump SRM damage to 2.5 to make it up to us. Please? Just one glimmer of the brawling we had a year ago? What's the worst that could happen - no poptarts for two weeks?

This happened the other day when I was pugging (DONTOR could speak for me, I ran into him that drop). It was that canyon something map, and suddenly out of no where about 8 Griffins, armed with loads of SRMs and apparently giant XL engines - cuz they were running like crazy - and they just blitzkrieged straight into our formation, Before we knew what was happening, everyone was dead.

So you may wanna rethink about that....

But the SRMageddon! Think of the SRMageddon!

I think paul still has ptsd from when the SA goons picked on him with splat cats, that's why srms have never been viable since then

The Dragon Bowling of Paul was far more epic.

No, more like the three stooges, and not even the good ones with Curly or even Curly Joe, we get the group with Shemp.

Should we assume that the Hot Fix failed test?

All I hear is, "I got killed by it therefore it must be OP." SRMs are ****, they've been **** for 14 months now, and I'd love to see the scenario you described as an alternative to teams camping and slowly trying to poptart each other to death.

Thanks Niko. Hope it works.

And... you know this precisely how? I didn't read anywhere that was said anything was getting mixed in, anywhere, and I have a tendency to read a lot, though not all.

Russ intimated as much in his 2am damage control post.
