Zomg! Anxious to see the Gameplay - Helicopter handling has been tweaked among other things! Keep up the good work boys (and girls).

[Nisseponken]

Oh my ...Wow. Just went through it real quick and it looks extremely promising! It almost feels like they put some oppinions from the forums into consideration . Could that be?

Great work!

[Skilllos]

Yay Thx to twitter? *gg*

[VekomaSLC]

[breddab]

everything turns me on.

Except im curious about what this exactly means:

Also when is the spawn and rev invul going to be removed? next patch?

[crazycanuck]

wow Baza....seriously Sweet List!!!!

Looking forward to trying these changes out. Nice timing too..im on vacation next week and plan on lots and lots of game time.

[PCGamer121]

Sounds like a pretty good change log to me

[tOopOfThElInE]

"New chat system allows chatting when dead (but not during end of round) and keeps a 100 lines log"

What does "end of round" mean? I hope we still can write gg when the round is over...

[hac11]

Btw Baza, can you explain this to me?
Gameplay - Weapon tweaks have been implemented based on PC public feedback

What exactly did you change?

Thx.

[LordCrc]

Lot of fixes I like in there like join queue, ticket adjustment, non-admin pings, new chat stuff. Now lets hope it's as good as it says on the package

[Stunl3y]

Gameplay - Weapon tweaks have been implemented based on PC public feedback - will be very interesting to see what they are.

Glad to see DICE not to proud to admit the changes to the knife didnt really work, it all looks rather promising and nice to see DICE on the case.

[MasterDex88]
