This is GREAT! i have been using TAG and NARC all day to great effect for my teamates, will be nice to log back in and actually get more than just a spotting bonus for it ( I get laughed at ALOT in the textchat for having narc )

I kinda hope it means my most excellent ping will do me some good.

Same here.

I'm tired of having to start up 27 torrent downloads, uh, I mean, it would be terrible if someone did that to try and purposefully increase their ping times...

AWWW SWEET! I KNEW this tag boat would come in handy one day!

Back in the forum, but the game isn't updating …

[MadSavage]

Glad to finally have a solution to the lag! I wonder how many form topics are going to be made to increase light mech armor

Patch notes are up!

So, in your quote of the patch notes it says that lagshield is partially fixed, but when I actually go to the link you posted and read the notes, I don't see that in there. Did you just make that up, or what?

They took it out. Ninja change to the patch notes.

Used to read:
Movement:

- Reduced/improved snapping when jump jetting
- Reduced/improved movement snapping in general
- You should no longer need to fire ahead of where a mech powers down or shuts down in order to hit them
- Partial 'lag shield' fix - it is now only affected by your ping, not your targets ping.
NOTE: The "lag shield" problem is an acknowledged bug, and work on reduction/elimination of the lag shield is in progress

Hmmm..why would they do that? Did they decide not to upload it at the last minute, or...I don't know.

They might've found a problem with the code at the last minute and are removing it for now for further testing/fixes. The servers are offline again, at any rate.

[MGoo]

yeah, the lag thing is in the quote on page 1 of this thread but not in the notes anymore...? Hm,.
Once the game is up we will all be able to tell if a partial fix is actually there or not...good to see a wee update, shame that moaning threads have already started about it not including what people 'think' should be in the patch, they do have alot to do and cant spin plates for everyone at the same time

Didn't make anything up. Why would I? I never had a problem hitting enemy mechs of all kind.

No idea why they changed it. My quote is from the patch notes as they were at that time.

This sounds like some good stuff.

The same goes for crash fixes and fps improvements. Even if I only get a 2-3 fps improvement, that will go a long way in building confidence.

The tag and Narc thing.... I'm glad the Devs are at least taking a stab at making them more attractive. I don't think this is the proper way to do it. BUT the door has been opened to make changes.

----Edited; Removed "Very excited to see the lagshield fix. Even if it's only partially, I think any amount of improvement will go a long way in getting some rant off of the forums and restore some confidence in the community."----

This was not intended.
