First!

Also good job, seems like alot of work went into this patch! Very thankful for you guys keeping this game alive!

I had 3-4 people try to shoot me in P2 after patch, and they did indeed have a hard time hitting me. In fact they didnt hit me at all almost. I think there may be some "hacksploit" accusations in the following days when more people find out they cant hit shit

Runspeed should not be slowed down, it should remain the same however aiming reticles should close significantly faster - Twitch aiming is a part of gaming and one that I welcome the encouragement of into neocron. [I mean we are enhanced via implants and what not!]

There do seem to be a few issues with the patch, new trade bugs have arrived and some peoples character models have broken

[Coryu]

dont forget:
even debuffing and healing is harder too ;-)

worst case:
no ppus needed in op fight

[wargolem]

debuffing still works like Apu spells used to right? so its actually still the easiest job in terms of aim.... just try not to get them on the wrong person

Twitch gaming is what i wish they had since the start, oh well.

See now this is a great idea! I was about to just whine about the idea of slowing Things Down, but making the reticle speed faster, is an absolutely brilliant idea!

[nabbl]

Yeah .. the clippers are about to whine.

As I read the Patchnotes this was kind of obvious.
Did you ever play late NC1 or NC2? The Runspeed was not that high and you needed movement and awareness. Especially as a tank where you were slowed down while drawing your weapon.

But there was nothing bad about that. People specced some resist, tried to move better.

The PvP nowadays is just like: "Oh my god, I am at half of my HP, I am gonna RUUUUN!!!!"
And nobody is able to follow, because of the netcode and because of the obstacles they run around.
The runspeed as it is now would be fine if we had levels like in Quake or Unreal Tournament. But we don't. This is Neocron and no High-Speed-First Person Shooter.

I would like to see that Players in Neocron put some diversity on there setups. Like speccing more or less resist. Being able to spend some points on Repair and Vehicle Use instead on speed would be awesome!
Of course, there should still be a slight advantage to players who want to play lowtech, but it should still not have that large impact on your runspeed.

Lots of people reporting missing items, tagged GRs and even goguardians emptied. Expect a server rollback.

[Mokoi]

It would be tremendously helpful if people were reporting issues either here or in the bug reports forum instead of using only ingame chat.

Nabbl - Thumbs UP mate.

I wish I could hit like on posts because the above one made me laugh.
