So does this fix most of the problems that players are complaining about right now?

[Valeron]

I haven't played today but is the stuttering corrected? I get some really bad stuttering when I have played. I actually corrected it by going windows (full screen) mode but I know it's a fairly big issue for a lot of players.

[Arlee]

Not sure personally since I have been away from the internet for a week, but it does fix quite a few issues.

[Forsedar]

Actually, yes.


Also, I am glad but dissatisfied with the HM Terror From Beyond encounter being changed. We had enough DPS to not bug out the fight in order to kill it (which was deemed impossible). They should have fixed it and NOT increased the enrage timer. Although the timer was increased by 20sec, it was still perfectly doable in full 61 mods, which is a little under the gear requirement for that fight.

They should have just fixed the tentacle and left it as is >.>

[Profyrion]

Thanks Arlee.

Until they do a game play trailer of 3d space combat pvp and pve with a ranking system and gear progression (with pvp normalized in space)

My problem will not be fixed.

Sounds like a list of problems that will never be fixed.

[Strah]

I hope they fix the 25% loadscreen bug.
Annoyed the hell out of me.

[Psychlon]

I still experience an increased lag, mostly in warzones and while I didn't change anything on my setup, the difference is unfortunately more than just a little. If you can't heal because you don't even see the health going down but rather 100%-0% in the next "picture" of the dia show they call warzone it's kinda annoying.
