It's the Roadmap for June and July.

New Mechlab?
Map Overhaul?
Clan AC Love?
SPECTATOR MODE???

All I can say is this:

Sweet, June 2nd looks like a homerun

[CDLord HHGD]

WOOT! Gonna be good!

[Big Tin Man]

You forgot river city map redesign

[Cion]

Substantial improvements each patch.

PGI keep the pace up! Interested to see where we'll be by November if you do keep the pace.

From the Wave III order page
"Preorder before May 31st at 11:59:59 PM PST and receive the following items as an added bonus when the Wave III Mechs ship on June 16th."

Thanks for being straight forward on the pre-order page that the ACH and SHC won't be released until end of July...
Jesus you guys... you really make it hard for me to want to pay you.

Them CW changes

I for one, welcome our new dropship overlords..
Wait no, they aren't overlord class dropships, so that doesn't work.

Can't wait for the new mechlab!

No, I mentioined it (Map Overhaul).

I thought that was in reference to the CW map overhaul for drop points...

Either way, new river city should be mentioned twice because it's that important.

Nope, that would have been CW overhaul.

There is a big red FAQ button right on the Wave 3 page. If you aren't willing to read over or find any relevant information before spending a gratuitous amount of money, then you shouldn't be spending that money in the first place.

Honestly, you people just like to find things to complain about.

The Clan ballistic is a good start, no?

Good stuff. Awaiting the map overhaul. Excited.

[Deathlike]

Why does the first patch in July seem... empty? Yes, there's one map being revamped (does this mean River City Night is going away?) but... I would have thought more changes would happen in July just as well.

[Cryzak]

Damn i just realized that my cheetah is coming end of next month...waited so long allready and...i dont know what to say

[Alistair Winter]

At first I was bummed that the mechlab was coming tomorrow, because it means they won't be making further changes. I fear that the mech selection screen and the noob-friendly Mechlab will both be as terrible as they were in public test version. The smurfy layout is a big improvement, so at least there's that.

On the other hand, maybe it's good to roll out Mechlab 2.1 now and get back to making more content. Because I feel like there's barely been any new content for non-CW players lately, and there's not a lot of stuff for me to look forward to. River City 2 is coming a month from now. I'll get my Shadowcat in July. That's pretty much it.

I don't know when we'll see 4v4, PVE, Solaris or any of the other stuff I've been looking forward to.

The changes described are all good. Spectator mode will be fantastic for the community, I hope. I look forward to seeing more Clan ballistics and less laservomit. But there's not a lot of content to look forward to in the near future. I doubt we'll see a new pub queue map every month, like they did with CW.

So yeah. It's all good, but... I really want more content.

[Deathlike]

To be fair, these are the "easiest" things that could actually be done for the early July patch...

1) Improve Flamers (although, that would require work and thought... which is likely to be too much for PGI)
2) Improve LBX - Simply make them more useful across the board... preferably in the damage and spread departments
3) Improve JJs on Assaults (and fix the Highlander's JJs while you're at it) - Hoverjets on Assaults is a sad deal

New Mechlab? Map Overall? Clan AC Love? SPECTATOR MODE???

In all fairness, re-read your OP:

1. You didn't say CW overhaul, or CW anywhere for that matter
2. You did say "Map overall"[sic]

Now I don't know how you put overalls on a map, but in the case of river city, it's bound to help, simply because it can't hurt.

[Mawai]

Although I like the list of improvements ... particularly the mechlab and the changes to CW to deter spawn camping and light mech zergs ... the list itself seems a bit sparse to be honest for releases over a 2 month period.

Hello UI 2.0. I hardly forgotten thee.

I believe "UI 2.1" is going to be somewhat of a repeat of the past, despite the improvements.

I guess... would be nice if other maps were fixed soon™ as IIRC they needed to create their 6th (currently done) or 7th map before they started refining existing maps. Apparently, we'll have more invisible walls for the foreseeable future.

Late summer last I recall.. so let's just dub that "September". Although, officially, it'll be in August at the earliest...

Nope. RIP new non-CW map content.

Big things in July, amirite?
