There was a brief discussion with a few of the Devs on this today, and Jeff Freeman said I could pass along the following clarifications:

Pets not following, autostoring, etc.: That's gotten better and will continue to get better until (we hope) it just almost never happens. It's mostly a multiserver issue.

Traps on player pets: CH in pvp needs to be re-evaluated altogether, and this is part of that. Step one would be to make CHs viable in PvP. Step *two* would be to introduce counter-measures to pets in pvp.

Terrain negotiation while mounted: Mounts vs. vehicles needs to be re-evaluated and this is part of that. Otherwise, we're pretty much all for it.

Pet levels:One majorlyfun part of the CH professions was searching planets for cool pets. That needs to come back.

acknowledgement of our existance and troubles...

Sorry, I have been away from the scout/ranger forums for a while. Am I right in reading this that "scanarea" (or /track or whatever the command would have been)is no longer being considered as a new skill for us?

There was a discussion of how areatrack works, and how the "scanarea" command was going to be implemented (basically it was going to be able to give you mini missions...you scan for that creature and with a successful scan, it would lead you on a "mission" that would end with a spawn of that creature, or maybe another one if you failed it).
