All depends on your personal preference (and what the Devs can fit into the CU)...I'm hoping they can fit the 2 programming changes I mentioned above into the CU (which I've been lead to believe they plan on doing), but even if they don't, we SHOULD be able to get them to tweak the speed and accuracy via the Sandbox and in Beta...So in reality, we may get all 4 fixes...


Some folks believe our Grenades won't be "fixed" until they are completely revamped and include "status" effects as well as other effects (kd, knockback, etc)...So again, all comes to personal opinion of what you consider "fixed"...for me, "fixed" means I would considering using my Grenades as much as any other weapon and that it would just come down to strategy and tactics as to when I use them and not the fact that they do me more harm then they do my opponent...

The biggest thing I want EVERYONE to take away from Tyrant's post is that he says JANUARY...SOETyrant isn't any ordinary Dev...consider him THE DEV IN CHARGE!!! When TH says something, things might change and dates might be missed...TH rolls with those punches...It's SOETyrant that throws those punches...When he says something, you can pretty much guarentee that's the way it's gonna go...So if he says January, it's a pretty good bet it's set in stone...He has a way of MAKING things happen...That's why ALL of us Correspondents love and respect him so much!!!






Well maybe we'll finally have a development department that understands the use of a test server and USES it for that purpose. Not to give players a sneak peak at the next publish, but to find out what breaks and if it doesn't work, don't push it to live.
