Are you testing the APU on Sparta?
For someone so adamant to see the class fixed, I'd expect you to provide some serious contributions to the matter.

Uhm.. We ARE getting our skills (setups) reset on live server, when this hits, right?
With these kind of huge changes to ammo mods and such, every setup will have to be remade pretty much..
I wouldn't be surprised if there were changes to various implants as well, we'll just have to wait and see.Quote:

It's easier to make list of viable classes than unviable ;)
Given that we mentioned in the Deployment #1 Changelog that the DPM rework would not promote lower TL weapons without changes to the implant and armour system, it's pretty much a given ;).Quote:

I didn't try PvP yet.
Are all weapon weakier ?
Yes they are. The rare weapon bonus and woc weapon bonus was removed and the damage is adjusted to the techlevel of your weapon. I think the dev's wrote it at this post: http://forum.neocron-game.com/showth...t-1-Change-LogQuote:

If higher TL weapons do more damag, then spyocron and tankocron will keep on since these 2 classes always get high dext/str when PEs needs drugs, PAs and multiple MC5 to get enough dexterity.
PEs need love.
I'll give a try hunting on my tank and my spy to see the changes.
I would think that testing PvE is a bit of a waste at this stage. Haven't they said that they will only look at PvP for now and ignore the PvE impact / adjust PvE balance later?Quote:

That and the TL differences in damage has been lowered (I think?).
I tried hunting on tank and weapons seems to be nerfed the same way, Ravager does also nearly half the damages as before.
Hunting will be longer than before, maybe it's a good thing.
aKe'cj & Dropout you are right.
I'll have to try PvP now !

Bring back APU lol !Quote:
What consequences might there be?
Some weapon mods will clearly be more valuable. The current armour system will make Psi-monk and some Spy players significantly more vulnerable to force modded weapons. Without a change to the armour system, the possible introduction of a damage type weakness to each class and balancing the viability of each class to team play this will remain evident.
