Yeah a lot of ground to cover here. But if you can't make the game playable again then my booster is nixxed.

Totally understand though, it was way to strong. I could flag cap in 30 seconds if I go unhindered. I didn't see anything about the glitched in the wall turret placement at the flag stand though (can't remember map name, the one with the aqueducts). Was that already fixed or is it still in game? Please tell me it's been fixed already.

They claimed to fix the dry firing last time and they made it 100x more frequent. And nothing stated about the biggest issue which is that the game runs at 5fps in fullscreen 1080 for me and 70fps in windowed 1080. I can't see anything about fixing the CTF rotas either.

Honestly I'm not sure what the bug is exactly, never experienced it myself. But this is from the patch notes "Fixed issues with Quick Draw perk where the client was not scaling the putdown/retrieve animations correctly and where the server was not switching fast enough (and leading to some dry fires). Fixed a bug that that would cause occassional “dry fires” of weapon."

Oh boy, I might have to play a Sent for a few days just to zoom in and laugh at the Paths that don't read patch notes :lol:

Explosive will still work won't they? Or is the damage they deal too much... (not sure haven't unlocked it yet).
