    Exclamation Patch on 4/19

    Looks like there will be another patch deployed on Thursday. No word on what exactly they are doing, probably something for the free weekend (going by recent history).

    I know theres a bug that prevents you from logging out. I have to exit the game entirely cant go back to character selection screen which is annoying as hell. But that seems like something they would just hotfix.

    I am still confused as to why they don't ever post the patch notes till after the servers are back up. I wonder if they fixed unify to chest for head slots.

    Makes sense Synthaxx... but I'd rather know ahead of time what they are intending on patching... but then I just always like to know things

    One could hope that they will fix the title part of the event again, and this time actually fix it.

    If this isn't the pvp patch they talked about recently then I expect more pvpers to leave. Atm its a case of the haves and have-nots - if you have a premade team, grats on your war hero gear. If not, good luck being steamrolled by premades.

    Noone is "leaving" at least until the 30 free days are up. I bet most of them will say they are, but as long as that free time is there they will be monitoring changes and logging in to check them out.

    So wait, you can do a full premade group? I thought that was part of the PvP patch that was not released. I dont PvP much because pugging half your team is more painful than pugging all of them. But I did notice last night we were getting steam rolled worse than usual.

    I've never run in a premade and I don't typically have issues winning games. Also there is nothing stopping you starting a premade if you really think that is your only way to win.

    For the most part I solo queue, but also run with guildies and I have no issues winning either way. Sure sometimes PUG runs get rolled, but so do guild runs, there is a gear gap but guess what, this is an MMO, it will always be part of the game. If you keep at it, you will have the gear eventually as well. If anything , the PVP is better now.

    I have a feeling that it will be the next phase of the Rakghoul epidemic thats going on According to in game news it has spread to ALL planets and that a "list" will be out soon.

    so along with some other things i think that this will be a next step with the rakghoul thing prolly why they wont say anything bout it with patchnotes

    What they need is reducing cost of vaccine for low lvls. My lowlvl at lvl 10 got 4000 credits... and vaccine 2000... a bit heavy really
    Or just keep the infections to higher lvls, like 20+

    Servers are already back up, if anyone is awake. Only 2 and a half hours, not too bad.
