I know its propably too early to ask this, but is SS zoom going to get fixed?
It seems to be fov based since with lower fov settings zooming animation takes less time. Dont know if it is because of this or for some other reason, but sensitivity while zoomed in feels bit unnatural. Seperate sensivity value for that could be useful, too.
Also, maybe consider adding hold to zoom as option instead of toggle? I would guess that all secondary weapons use same code, but it shouldnt be too hard to add exception for sniper.
This can also be reached with simple bind with ini files, but theres also a problem. For some reason game will crash very often when playing with ss and hold to zoom bind. Crash once in every 1 or 2 matches is usual, but sometimes it takes much longer. Also it seems to be somehow related to round end. Game does sometimes crash during match too, but most of the time its if you zoom / shoot when round is about to end.

Josh, it is indeed heartwarming to see such engagement with the rabble. ![]()
To help manage mine, and for that matter everyone else's expectations, would it be fare to say that after about six month we might start to see Reloaded really hammering their (your) mark onto this game? (And by that I mean beyond getting the platform stable, bug fixes, uncontentious balance tweaks, legal shenanigans, and other low-hanging-fruit.)

Yeah at least 6 months before you can see new content is reasonable.
The PC community is the red headed step child Reloaded never wanted but got saddled with when they married the PC community's mother.

So, what you're saying is, at the rate that you're going...
Massive content update next week, right? Right? HERKEN 2.0 by thursday?
I would agree but love sarcasm and now agreeing XD

Clearly the man is so busy he can't even slow down long enough to come up with an avatar. Perhaps the community should take this task over for him????

He is talking about swapping the Assault to be used for new players and making loadouts better/easier for newbies.

At least are trying to improve the game ... I hope you are not going in circles trying to fix bugs creating other even worse and forgetting to change the game so it really can attract more players.

If he is to get a avatar it must be none other than

Walt Whitman. The poem "O Captain! My Captain!" Has possible relations to Moby fuzzy bunny which I like. Plus it is after all a great poem.
EDIT: Also if you can try old builds of hawken and note changes in design choice if you can my captain! Things such as how items worked! (You only had one and it was on a large cool down) and how rarely people pressed space in duels! Means it is a very different beast. TTK all of these things played out so differently.
Seeing how design ideals changed and progressed should be helpful to understanding where hawken was and is now, in terms of gameplay changes and how the felt and so on. So I do suggest it. (As many others have)

He's talking about the default mech for new users. He's wanting to change it from CRT with nothing to Assault with a default loadout (of say turret mk2 and shield, or whatever)
Not an actual new mech or new items/internals.

Wait what!? The CR-T is a great starting mech, plus the MC bonuses you get make it really easy to get started on either gearing it up or getting something new... Can someone direct me to the discussion where the logic behind this is stated, because I do not see any after seeing this announcement.

@capnjosh, I am not sure if you guys have it up yet. But do you guys have a public todo/task list available within JIRA? I am assuming you are using JIRA is you have Confluence.

This makes me sad, but I'll get over it I guess. Wonder if those of us who bought the Assault will get some MC/HC back if they start giving it to the new players.

I have a feeling that we won't, but it won't be for negative reasons. It sounds like, at least for the time being, they have a lot planned on making the game better. I can't seem to shake the feeling that they've thought about those who have been around a while.

I lurk in the bots-tdm lobbies welcoming the noobs, and we regular target-practice partiers have noticed the bots suddenly getting wise: deathballing, rotating double, triple, even quad-teaming, double-flanking, across-the-map chasing until somebody dies or you chase them into the "sucker trap" with several of their buddies waiting. OMFG! This has been jaw-dropping surprise on occasion. i'm still under 1600mmr so it isn't a human team avg boost. what fun! Many new players almost every first few matches will comment "These are BOTs???"
awsum, capn! y'all keep doing whatcher doin'!
Rock On!
