Server Downtime for PU02 December 17, 2013 9:30 AM PT (6:30 PM CET)

Also, methinks the changes look good overall dispite 1 or 2 heavy handed nerfs..
I really appreciate the extra reasoning detail in the balance notes though.

Overall its looking to be for the greater good for the game. Good luck Dev team.

You really thought the Harasser could last in the game that way? A dune buggy blasting away heavy tanks made no sense. If you read this forum regularly you had to be aware. Everyone knew a nerf was coming for the Harasser. If you play online games you must get used to it: things can change.
Harasser was just insane, now it's finally a normal vehicle. And you guys crying because you lost your super-OP toy make me laugh a lot.

Connery server* down atm.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but last time I checked nothing beat the magrider for a strafing lawnmower of infantry.

SOE, i'm all for the changes here, but how on earth did you get data saying the Repeater did better at range than the other factions? I've only seen people use the repeater at close range in a last ditch effort to save themselves.

Gosh darn it all, I want to shoot me a SNOWMAN! A GOLDEN snowman!!

Stuck at 96% as well, Helios server

(hah, got ya! yeah i'm stuck playing on horrid Connery now)

So who's not stuck at 96%??

Now past 96% but the screen says server down. Yes you may want to get that golden snowman but I shall beat you to it!

Don't know, I am stuck at 96% too

Welcome to the 96% club XD Enjoy your stay!

For those of you stuck at 96%, is that when joining a server, or loading the main character selection menu?

I was just fighting a few heavy's, and its extremely difficult to kill them with a NS PDW 30 round magazine without intentionally trying for the head-shot, which correct me if im wrong, is harder to get now, as well as not effected by the resistance bonus from the heavy shield or what? I usually pride myself at getting some good SMG action in there and i was pretty much getting my *** handed to me as an infil with the 'new' nano weave maxed. Maybe as an infil having less health in a toe to toe yeah, im dead, but i got the jump on him plenty.

Patch could have been better. I'll give it a 96/100.

2AM for PST is 11 AM CET. With a projected downtime of 2 hours that puts the servers getting up about 1PM CET.

So if you wanted EU servers up, without any problems (never happens that way) for 'prime-time (5pm which I'm assuming is when Europeans get off work as do US employees)' the US team would have to start at a minimum of: 8AM PST.

So, SOE started at 930 PST which would get servers for everybody at 630PM for CET. BUT, this is IT, and it always breaks. So, if you want people to come in before a standard work day, again, explain to me how you get people to get in there super early?

The worst part about this update is

!Now I will def spend ALL my time on my least favorite continent, tracking down the fabled, legendary GOLDEN SNOWMAN of ESAMIR!

I just logged on and I lost my TR and my NC accounts i have a BR 64 TR called AtySRose on Miller if that is not back I will literately rage quit as I spent over a year playing this game

This wasn't in the patch notes, but it looks like PU02 switched the magrider's proximity radar from the utility to the defense slot. Any rationale for this?

"Prowler Anchored Mode
Data shows that anchored mode is extending the Prowlers range too far as well as making it too easy to hit aircraft. The projectile speed increase on Anchored mode is being reduced from 15/30/45/60% per rank, to 7.5/15/22.5/30%"

I'm done! It was nice shooting with you all. Goodbye!

If you played long enough to get those BRs, shouldn't you know how login behaves on a patch day?

hopefully cert back zoe but now can we get something usefull like shield or lockdown instead of a one shot decimator thing.

and please can you restart server fast
