About the HUD:
I'll have to test by myself, but as far as I saw it on the videos, seems that over very bright and white surfaces it is very hard to see.
But as I said, I will have to test it by myself.

Everything else looks great.

One thing that worries me is the lack of cooldown tracking for weapons. I think this is a key priority that should be fixed before the patch is released. You can't use weapons like heat/flak/eoc to their maximum effect if you don't know the second they're fully charged/off cooldown.

Dream on good sir!
They are not going to release the patch any time soon believe me.

Didn't even see the patch notes yet so...

I'm guessing second week of sep or end sep and not sooner than that.

Also keep in mind that they will probably find last minute game breacking bugs and
the release will be delayed and we will see the next update begin october.

This guys have a small team and they are slow.  And not smart either because otherwise you would
never try to split the community and release something like that HAB to piss off your fans.

Hmmm ... i never claimed that Adhesive has released HAB to piss off the community.
And really do know how the HAB works, don't need to educate myself on that one!

So then you didn't say this:

Because that seems like you're implying exactly that and that you don't know how HAB work...

I'm not going to make this a long post because i know for sure it will get the thread shut
and we don't want that.  If me saying that the guys from Adhesive are not smart enough hurt you
sorry for that.

For the rest, you're funny, and a little bit naive..

I'm not going to make this long either, I just want to point out that we're getting patch notes on Tuesday which means the patch itself will follow shortly after, hopefully by the end of the week. So it looks like your predictions were fairly incorrect and you should be dining on some humble pie.

Hopefully in the future you'll remain a little more positive and understanding of how these things work.

Dude, sorry buy i'm not a fanboy like you.
I am against the Technician, Shield in it's current form and the HAB and i
have the right to say whatever i want just like anybody else.  If the devlopper does not
like what i'm saying, they can come in here and tell me otherwise but i highly doubt they need
protection from fans, they are big boys and can talk for themselves.

And my predictions are perfectly fine, I said mid september or end of september if they will
find that last minute game breaking bug.

Don't worry about my understanding of how things work either, i know more about these things
than you can ever imagine.

There is cooldown tracking, the inner crosshair bars around the reticle dot expand and contract to display the cooldown. This took me a long time to figure out over many repeated viewings as the new crosshair is very colorblind-unfriendly.

Who said I'm a fanboy_ I can't stand the Shield in its current form, the Technician needs some serious balancing, but I think HAB Is a great idea as it allows players to give early feedback on the direction of Hawken and potentially head off any issues that might be brewing. It allows the players and developers to work on making Hawken the best game possible which is something I have a hard time seeing anyone be against.

I'm all for saying what you want but I don't see a point in being excessively negative in a thread like this and acting like the developers are fuzzy bunny up left and right. I don't claim to speak for the development team but I feel the need to speak up when you start hurling insults like you were.

Thus far your predictions aren't holding up all that well. Looking at the Facility update the patch notes were posted on May 3rd and the patch itself released May 9th. The Technician patch notes were released on April 15th and the patch hit April 18th. The Raider patch notes were released on March 1st and the patch released March 5th. The Reaper patch notes were released on January 18th and the patch itself hit January 24th.

History really doesn't support your claims or negative mindset here. Every patch has followed within a week of the patch notes being released, the longest wait being six days which were mostly due to the patch notes being released at the end of the week instead of the beginning of the week. Looking at past patterns we should have the next update by the end of next week, well before mid to end of September like you so boldly claimed.

If you want to continue being negative by all means go ahead, just don't get upset when others like myself speak out against you and point out how wrong you are.

Also if you know more about this than I could possibly imagine then please enlighten me because I'd love to learn more about this process from you or anyone else from that matter. However from where I'm sitting you seem to have an incredibly loose grasp on how all of this works let alone the Hawken update history.

Will you both stop your petty bickering_ We will see when the patch comes out, and September 2nd we will know what the patch entails.
Also neither of you needs to prove anything to one another.

Besides, its not like you paid for the game. (Unless you bought MC) So the Devs can take their MotherF'in time.

I mean have you ever done programming_ I took some low level and it is not easy, one misspelled word, incorrect punctuation and the code won't even compile. Maybe you put a 1 where a 0 was supposed to go. Not to mention all the scripting and such. Give em a break and calm down.

IT IS NOT WORTH BEING PETTY OVER.

Other than that I am excited over the new patch.

For me this hasn't been an attempt to be petty but rather point out the holes in the mindset of those who have been rather negative about the recent events in Hawken. This is also to keep others from buying into the negative mindset others have put out there and show that things aren't as bad as some might assume.

Also I've done some minor programming stuff myself before and I agree it isn't an easy job at all. While I never operated on the level of putting together a game just doing basic programs proved to be a difficult task. Like you said the slightest error is all it takes to undo everything and I can't imagine how complicated things get when dealing with an online game such as Hawken.

I merely wanted to demonstrate that history doesn't support negative theories and chances are this is coming sooner rather than later. In fact I agree with some of what Onebullit said such as the Shield being broken and the Technician needing to be balance.

I'm tired of the negative mindset and those trying to further spread these negative feelings because they were left out of HAB, don't agree with the direction of Hawken, or whatever their reasons may be. I've invested a fair amount of time and money into Hawken and want to see it succeed but I don't think being excessively negative is doing any good.

The patch is coming, we've got a date for the patch notes, and personally I'm really excited to see how it goes. HAB was a lot of fun and there is a lot of potential here moving forward. I think people need to be more open minded about things and I'll continue to speak out against those who just want to spoil it for others.

I have a GT 650M in my Alienware laptop and i can run the game on Ultra in both the graphics and textures area. Not sure how my GC compares to the aforementioned Radeon 7870 or the GTX660, just throwing it out there if it helps.

Edit: Just looked at some comparisons and apparently my GC is pretty mid range :sadface:

Im running a HD Radeon 7950 and i run on Ultra. Down side_ I cant run Physix on MAX but I can have them on Durning gameplay even the 20 player maps I never notice frame rates or screen chopping. Id say i run at a solid 40-60 FPS at any given time.

hey thanks to everyone who recommended specs in response to my query a few pages back, ill certainly be checking those cards out carefully, and making sure my cpu doesnt bottleneck my gpu... cant wait for the patch, btw.
