Flak rounds are messed up, or something.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. It's the flak ammo explosions (and presumably everything with similar graphics) which is supposed to be causing the visual lag.

There was a hotfix at midnight last night. Hopefully it corrected the FPS issues. Other than that, this patch is great!

The Prowler buff along with the lockdown twist means I now have a fucking sniper rifle tank that rivals the magrider. Projectiles are so fast there is little to no drop and aircraft that are not full throttle are pretty easy to pop. Me likes.  |

This is reasonably balanced by the fact that a locked down prowler is now a piece of cake to hit from long range with my Shrike or Annihilator. a small group of HA so equipped will kill one almost before it starts moving.

Prowler lockdown rank 4 is bugged. Projectiles are traveling at +200% speed rather than +20% speed.

Tank shells work again for TR and NC, but the FPS or performance still sucks. Been toying with setting, but is is pretty miserable in big battles for me now.

Yeah... frames per second were turning into frames per minute last night. Running around with zerg is no longer an option because if you look at it on the battle field, I'd drop to 2-4fps. As BW was saying...look away! I was noticing that if the zerg started moving on, my fps would slowly come back...but then I was getting some strange 50fps to 19fps oscillation every second. My theory is it has to be related to this rendering threats taking priority. I never figured out how that would work to begin with given a guy shooting your tank with a rocket launcher would be a threat and thus render, but what happens if he shoots and ducks away to reload...he no longer is a threat. Same if a guy with a deci - what determines if he is a threat to my tank or the guy next to me. /boggle

The new SMGs are really deadly up close. I was firing on enemy armor when an infil SMGed me in the back at point blank range. I basically died as quickly as the sound of the weapon registered in my brain. I am not complaining about this, just making an observation. If you like to get up close and personal before unloading on someone, the SMGs are for you. They are still competitive at medium range as well, but the clip size makes that more problematic.

If you get up that close, might as well knife the opponent. More demoralizing IMHO. But yeah, I have heard this - the SMG is hte new infil shotty. |

But sometimes not as effective. That SMG can take out multiple targets in the time it takes you to knife one guy. For shit like base defense as an infil, it's potent as fuck. |

I've been using the NC SMG and it's pretty good. I like it better than the Sweeper, good TTK, it's really accurate and you can actually pick some people off at medium range unlike the Sweeper where you're just totally ineffective. The mag size is just so small though that you really have to be ready to reload constantly. Not sure if I'll replace my GR-22 or not yet for medic, but it's a good buy especially since the certs you spend on it are available on all the classes.

You hit the beauty of this weapon: all classes can use so a very efficient use of certs. I expect a small TTK nerf on the uncerted baseline at some point, though. The balance between short and close range should move closer to the shotgun model, although the buff to the shotguns shows that SOE has thought of this a bit already.

Patch really smoothed things out. Also, I keep finding things about the GU2 that are just well done. For instance name tags are just 100% better now. Not only is the squad leader unique, squad member numbers appear next to names now. With the added bonus of other squads in a platoon only showing as a number and color, unless you target them.
Really nice useability touches all over the place. XP readout, Times on Vechs... Great stuff all over.

I'm a pretty easy-going guy. I played a human paladin in WoW who had corrective surgery to become a b-elf, and I play Vanu. This was my WoW theme clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMZEMvJ-km4But these Vanu videos are making me seriously consider going TR... |

Annihilator nerf seems unnecessary to me. 2 seconds is a long time in practice.
