    Ai all!

    In short, this is IMO the best upate ever released by SOE so far!
    I hope the good work continues and I really hope as many players
    as possible have the same great experience with the new patch as I have

    I'm glad to hear your enjoying yourself (and nice vid btw :p) but there are plenty of people who feel differently from you.

    Guess you can't please everyone. Me though, I rather like it, though the Magrider and Scythe changes kind of puzzle me...o_O

    Yeah, it has worke really well for me but I know some players have ha problems
    with terminals and respawns et.c. I really hope what ever is causing problems
    for the ones effected is solved soon

    I'm loving that new higher framerates still don't mean higher situational awareness, but BETTER ASPLOSIONS.

    I'm sure it has, but to some of my friends this started after PU01

    The best? Well that's your opinion. Mine is it sucks.

    I agree, the PU is great. I like everything - from design change to the stable 60 fps performance. I run max settings now, and 37 fps was the lowest it ever dropped.

    I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you have described to SOE what problems you have and that
    it will be fixed as soon as possible

    Hi Matti.
    I couldn't agree more with you on the subject performance increase / big battles. Odd thing for me is that my FPS is always between 59 and 60, never goes above or below - be it a super big battle or an empty warpgate. I think they put a reasonable FPS limit in there, perhaps you removed it?
    Also, what I am disappointed about is the new Scythe, Magrider and Galaxy design and the fact that you as a Scythe pilot did not voice your oppinion about it in the video.
    What do you think about the new design?

    Peace

    Hi mate and thanks for feedback!


    The reason your FPS is capped t 60 is probably smoothing, a new option in graphics settings
    that helps keep your frame rate stable. I am going to try out some settings in the useroptions.ini
    filw to see if I can find some settings I like better than default.

    About the new vehicle design I haven't thought that much about it, I like the new Scythe look
    but if this was made for performance reasons, I have to say: performance need to be priority 1.
    That is just my opinion

    Maby some new textures will be added on later, I just hope they will keep up their focus on optimization
    for at least a while longer

    The performance part of the update is utterly fantastic but as the first reply said some of the cosmetic and ui changes are a little wonky to some.

    For me personally its the new repair tool bar that annoys me with the red glowy flashing like you are getting hit (the old one is still on the bottom) and the new icons which hide the target for ranged fire.

    But as far as general score I'll easily give it a 9 out of 10 on the performance boosts alone. The rest will get sorted in the next few hotfixes if enough players really dislike the new ui.(and most do it seems at least from ingame comments)
