 I'm glad I can go to Giant Bomb for all my patch-note needs.  :P

I'd love for the time between respawns to get eliminated, but I know that's a big part of what makes it challenging. Still, it's fucking infuriating to watch for 15 seconds as your entire base is ripped to shreds by those fucking Jack Bots...

Incredible patch. Good news, the host migration was pretty annoying.

Glad to see they cut the bot spawning time in half, it sucks having to wait around. It's nice to see some free DLC is headed our way.

What?! The assassin can't cloak while grappling anymore? So she's essentially useless inside the enemy base or against a support anywhere near his firebase? Great! 
 
Guess I'm going to stop playing assassin then.

Nice can't wait for this to be rolled out.

Now I'm going to have to learn everything all over again! Awesome! (not sarcasm)

Great, grappling has been my biggest frustration. Grappling right through a guy  three times, it gets old fast, good to see they are fixing it.

Nice to see that they seem pretty serious about keeping this game well supported.
I can only assume this means that MNC sales were on the "successful" side of things?
 
Anxious to see what the DLC will have to offer.

When are developers/ publishers going to learn that splitting up online community's with dlc is not the way to go?

I hope they fixed the fact that sometime when you spawn you can't move or upgrade or shoot and it has that whit bar saying 'Waiting to respwan in...' I've been kicked of being 'idle' because of that glitch.

Very excited.... although I had been using/abusing the tank spin damage on an empty clip thing they're fixing. 
 
Still, sign me up. One triple kill away from an S-Rank.

Awesome news.

" When are developers/ publishers going to learn that splitting up online community's with dlc is not the way to go? "

Really want to know how much the DLC will be because I really don't want to have to pay just to keep up with everyone else

Aah the infamous announcement of an announcement, where would a company be without you?

I just pissed all over the fucking keyboard.

Love it, I would like to see more end game/higher end content.
 
I hate to draw this comparison but TF2 has it's hats, I want masks or something.

" What?! The assassin can't cloak while grappling anymore? So she's essentially useless inside the enemy base or against a support anywhere near his firebase? Great!  Guess I'm going to stop playing assassin then. "

This patch. I wants it. NOW.

This is some really great patching.

I'm hoping 'new content' means new maps and a new game type.  I'm happy with the current game types, but I'd like to see what they think of next.

" When are developers/ publishers going to learn that splitting up online community's with dlc is not the way to go? "

This is some good news.

For a second there I thought I had mistakenly clicked on an article about a WoW patch. "

Uh, any patches to Gunner? I thought they had said that there would be.

Sounds good. Cant wait for the dlc.

" @nail1080:I was referring to the two packs that most likely isn't going to be free, and pointing out how most multiplayer games this generation destroy their community's with premium dlc. "

Great to see developers, especially those who put out a smaller $15 game, supporting it after release. Too many just drop the game, take the cash and leave it. As for the paid DLC..... It's optional...... Don't want it don't buy it. DUH, not every developer has the resources to keep pumping out add ons for free. Especially when they're small, it is a business, they made a great product and they are trying to make money off of it.  

That's some good news. Glad this game picked up enough traction to warrant DLC. Patches are much welcomed. I hope the bugs be gone soon enough.

" @jukezypoo:  This is hardcoded patch stuff, not balance. They said they wouldn't be addressing balance till they were done with the first patch and there was enough data, but balance can be done through their Live Update system when they want. I suspect there will be some pretty decent changes on that front when the time comes.  As for this patch, I love everything about it. Except that it's not out now. "

Great to hear.
 
I'd like to see them disable building long-shots on nubs that will only result in it firing into a wall - I still experience too many (high level) players doing that.

Where's the DLC tease?

Sounds good, love this game

Hey! Psssst! PSN version, thank you.

" What?! The assassin can't cloak while grappling anymore? So she's essentially useless inside the enemy base or against a support anywhere near his firebase? Great!  Guess I'm going to stop playing assassin then. "

I'm hoping they add new achievements....I've had the game 2 days and am already almost done with the first 200. 
 
It's really nice to see a dev actually supporting a smaller game to keep the online going instead of letting it die just because it was a budget title.

This can only be a great thing.  Some of these are problems I personally have seen, and I'm glad that Uber is getting right on the problems. 
I'm impressed by how great this game came out, and how Uber seems to know what they're doing.  I look forward to the DLC, and to what they'll do in the future.

Read it again. You've got it backwards. The Assassin can no longer cloak WHILE grappling. This is not to say she can't grapple while cloaked. We're talking about the tactic of hitting Y just after you start to grapple - the turrets lose sight of you, it's cheap and broken. My main classes are Support and Assassin so I can really appreciate it from both sides, and while it does ruin a small bit of fun from playing as as Assassin, I think it's needed. "
