FD:
Still the same for PvE. FD works, but creatures still re-aggro from any distance upon /stand-ing.
Untested for PvP as of yet.
FP:
Cap for Colonel is now 120k (cap is now 20x rank cost all the way up the line).
Cannot /del unless you are Spec Forces declared.
Detachment HQ for the side without the 30% CoA "loser" discount is 90k (regular price)...67500 (MS price).

Did that CoA discount ever work? It didn't on my server, and when I put in a ticket on it, I was told it was a "known" issue.
(Like feign death, I suppose.)

Oops Dreven, just saw this hehehe
I started a thread about FD in PvE before seeing yours. Ah well, came obviously to the same conclusion.
So we need to be Special Forces to delegate eh? Ah well, in a way, that obligation is part of the spice (no pun intended) in FPs dealing.

Ok...FD in PvP...
I just dueled a random guy near one of the frogs...
Accepted the duel, and immediately hit FD...
I went down, got the incap timer, he hit me 2 more times, and I was slain...
Not much more to say about it.
FD is now officially useless in PvP.

Define "didn't work"...
It's always worked for me. It depends on who won CoA on your server. On Starsider, the Rebels won, so they get the 10% FP bonus. Imps get the 30% discount.
And to do the math, you take the regular price, subtract the 30%, THEN subtract your Smuggler discount (10% for UW1 or 25% for MS).
So a Detachment HQ would be 60000 - 30% = 42000 - 25% (MS) = 31500 <<------ this is the list price from the "losing" recruiter. If you don't get that, then your side is probably winning...

If they would fix it in PvE I'd be much more allright with this

The Spec Forces thing isn't really THAT big of a deal...it only takes 30 seconds to change from Combatant to Spec Forces...then takes 5 minutes to change back. It's a whole lot better than the HOUR that it takes now to change from Overt to Covert.

when you say that in PvE situations it's as before, does it implies that DBing mobs can't DB you while FD? What about NPCs (for instance factionnal NPC) ?
Sorry i don't have time to go and check by myself, and by the way, thanks for the update.

Too bad about the FD. I was looking forward to going overt in the GCW. Guess not.

Hmmm...I didn't try against factional NPCs...
I'll make it a point to try that when / if I get on this morning...
