Title Update 1.06 for UNCHARTED 2 will be released on Thursday, March 4, 2010, at 10:00 AM PST (6:00 PM GMT).

The Title Update just has a couple of minor changes, but we will also be making some additional tweaks to our multiplayer game at the same time Title Update 1.06 is released. Hit the jump to get the full set of changes.

Title Update 1.06 will be released on Thursday, March 4, 2010 at 10:00 AM PST (what time is that in my city?). After that time, you will be prompted to download and install Title Update 1.06 when you connect online to UNCHARTED 2 multiplayer.

Title Update 1.06 includes a couple under-the-hood fixes we needed to make that don’t affect gameplay. Beyond that, we’ve also made the following updates:

Removed automatic shoulder selection when players click the L1 shoulder button to aim
Delayed the appearance of the scoreboard to allow time for players to view any medals received simultaneously with player death

At the same time the Title Update is released, we’ll also be pushing live updates to other aspects of our multiplayer. These updates include:

Adjusted hitbox attributes so that players will take less damage to the character’s legs
Decreased kill radius of grenades by 1 meter
Decreased accuracy of Down the Irons by 15%
Reduced rate of fire of the FAL by 10%
Reduced rate of fire for the Dragon Sniper by 10%
Collision and geometry changes to “The Fort” to prevent intentional glitching by players

We’ll be keeping an eye on how these changes work out in-game and, as usual, through your comments, forum posts and Twitter. See you online!

...

Get in a custom match with your friends and 2v2 all you want.

Haven’t played the update yet so idk what to say. But kind of dissapointed that the weapon balances won’t be changed back to 1.04 in this update.

Posted by: jakemania on 03-03-2010

I don’t know why 2v2 DM sounds appealing to you… I played it last night on custom and we spent 80% of the time trying to find each other. The game was to 30 but it we ran out of time (20 min).

I’d rather have a free for all deathmatch than 2v2.

Posted by: MP006 on 03-03-2010

No, please no. My KD has increased by a ton, and I just became a FAL. If you do this there will still be complaints, too. Come on, please. I really just care about the grenades and FAL, but great job about dragon sniper. But, just take my thought into consideration. Also if you reduce rate of fire for FAL by ten percent now will it take the same time to get a kill by the AK47 and the FAL. If so then great.

Posted by: fadecy on 03-03-2010

I agree. I welcome this update. The sniper and greandes definately needed a little nerfing. ALl I would suggest is that they nerf the greande launcher as well. I don’t understand why in single player the greandes bounce around if you fire them too close but in multiplayer you can blindfire 2 of them from 2 meters away and kill someone without anyy drawbacks.

Thats not true. Ive had times when I fired the hammer at someone who dropped down in front of me and the shot hurt me but the guy I fired at didnt die AND recovered before me and punched me in the face and killed me

Posted by: Blueforce7 on 03-03-2010

THANK YOU! Finally, EVERYONE will stop using Down the Fraking Irons. It was really annoying, everytime I died, I look at the boosters of the person that killed me. 90% of the time it’d be Down The Irons & Fleet Foot.

Posted by: JonnyFig on 03-03-2010

OMG 2 completely different games.
dont mean to be rude man but its a totally different scene, the last thing we want is every game being like MW2. take MAG for instance, alot of people wont even try it because they have such a hardon for MW they cant see the value.

MW2 is a good game though, i just dont like its influence.

Posted by: idkmybffkae on 03-03-2010

i don’t know if you’ve noticed, but this ISN’T Modern Warfare; if you want something “like” MW, just play that then. They are two COMPLETELY different games (even though it doesn’t seem like that lately) don’t try to take the originality from this game and make it even worse.

Posted by: sulphury on 03-03-2010

YOU NAUGHTY DOG GUYS ARE RETARDED! reduced fire rate fo FAL? ARE U SERIOUSLY STUPID? the fal is barely balanced against an ak right now! WOW! YOU KEEP FACKING UP IT MORE AND MORE WITH EACH UPDATE! seems like u wanna eliminate any kind of aiming in ur game.

Posted by: jnco10999 on 03-03-2010

I don’t understand why you adjusted the FAL naughty dog. The FAL was a balanced weapon and now here you go again with your trigger happy changes. How is this even relevant to the main issue. I know it’s your first time dealing with multiplayer, but seriously, you guys need to stick with your foundation. Making changes too often will just end up turning this game over its’ head.

Posted by: Park34 on 03-03-2010

Hey, although I don’t know how this guy plays, I’ll have to disagree with you.

FAL is definately my favourite weapon, and in some maps like the Village or Plaza I usually stay in a strategic position and kill people FAR AWAY from me. Yeah, you can say I’m camping, but you can’t complain about my accuracy. The same can happen with that guy. Actually, I think that FAL is just a weapon for people who can really manage long range shots.

In my opinion, I agree with jnco10999. FAL was perfectly balanced and was the best option if someone doesn’t want to use an AK-47. Changing its rate has just made me cry. I hope I won’t feel it too much and keep killing people although I’m wearing Invalid+Half Loaded. I’ll just have to see how it works tomorrow.

And ND, ignore sulphury and all that kind of people. You’re listening to the global opinion and that’s the big point. This is something you have much stronger compared with other shooter games like MW2. I’ve just said that it’s NOT necessary that you change EVERYTHING, ‘cause there are some things that are perfect right now.

Keep working! Waiting for the update!

Posted by: mikex6989 on 03-03-2010

hopefully the sniper wont be one shot with this update...and the ak47 power should be reduced...its the most powerful gun in the game now if you have good accuracy. change that and the fal back to 3 bursts before 1.05.

Posted by: Muhib786 on 03-03-2010

When will you guys ever listen!!!! Down the irons wasn’t the bloody problem we were moaning about!! Its the reduced health and the bloody weapons!!!

Reducing the firing rate of the FAL by 10% isnt gonna do much as the FAL will still kill in 2 bursts!!! The ak47 is still way too good!! I mean how on earth can i “snipe” with the ak47 and kill another player on the other side of the map!!! Just plain rubbish!!

Again reducing the firing rate of the dragon sniper isnt gonna do much as the sniper is still a one hit kill, even on a players foot!!! Again rubbish!! The sniper should be a one shot kill ONLY on the head or torso and a 2 shot kill anywhere else!!

Forget get the bloody hit boxes, give us the health and weapons damage we had in 1.04!! THATS ALL WE WANTED YOU TO DO!! But you still don’t listen!!!

Jeez when wll you ever listen to us!!! I doubt 1.06 will make a bloomin difference!! Uncharted 2 has become “Uncharted 2: Among Modern Camp-fare 2!!” due to the dumb updates you guys made in 1.05!! And believe me update 1.06 will only wont fix a thing parat from that damn auto shoudler switch (i still wanna know who’s rotten idea that was)!!! If you guys wanted to ruin the mutliplayer.....you;re certainly well on track!! the multiplayer has become like any other genric online shooter, basically just camp, wait and kill!! Wheres he fun in that!!

Posted by: Clunk569 on 03-03-2010

Are you completely retarded Muhib786? Do you know what changing the hitbox attributes will do? It’s meant to make it so it takes more shots to kill someone. That means that you need to aim for the head or torso to do more damage, and thus the sniper will probably take two leg shots. And, one of the major problems with the FAL was that you could shoot someone so fast they almost instantly died. With a slower shooting rate, someone might actually have time to get to cover. Instead of getting angry at Naughtydog for not saying, “We’re bringing it back to 1.04!” actually think about what these changes imply. They are balancing the game so weapons like the FAL and sniper rifle aren’t too powerful.

Posted by: Muhib786 on 03-03-2010

adjusting the hit boxes still wont make much of a difference!! are you trying to tell me if im firing with a FAL at someone they wont die as quick!!?? i doubt it as a 10% reduction in its rate of fire wont make much of a differnece as 2 bursts from a FAL will still kill you and people who have at least half an idea of how to aim with a FAL will still kill you the moment they see you regardless of the hitbox adjustments!!

The thing is in 1.04 even when you came under fire you had a chance to retaliate or hide behind cover but with the changes regardless of 1.06 its become “i see you first, i shoot and your dead in like 2 secs.”

I mean i still get my 20+ kills with my invalid booster on but its way too easy!!! before it was a challenge to get 20+ kills now i get 20+ in every game and its boring!!

Posted by: beaudjangles on 03-03-2010

i think this is update is a valid fix for the 2 shot fal kill, i tend to run and gun and be ready to dive into cover at any moment, it usually works if my ping is half decent. 10% is a slight advantage for me. i use down the irons, it’s quite clear that it owns, i’m prepared to adapt. keep up the good work ND

Posted by: idkmybffkae on 03-03-2010

yeah Naughty Dog, I have to agree. If you’re going to reduce the “down the irons accuracy” then what’s the point of even HAVING the booster in the first place?

Last time I checked, that’s what a “BOOSTER” was for; to give the players certain advantages.

This is getting so ridiculous now -_-

Posted by: Muhib786 on 03-03-2010

Man you guys at naughty dog working on the multiplayer are seriously retarded!!! Give us what we want!! then we’ll shut up!!! Until then get ready for a whole host of unwanted ,messages from people who HATE the multiplayer due to your pure retardedness!!

I mena, why change a game so DRASTICALLY 5 months after its release!! it was fine!! update 1.06 only addresses the little petty auto-shoudler switch!! The FAL will still remain the same so willl the sniper!! and like one previous poster commenetd the ak47 is so POWERFUL!! its the most pwerful gun in the game!!! no wonder everyone uses it now and dont bother with the m4 that much!!

Forget uncharted’s multiplayer which is shit now!! im getting battlefield bad company 2 to replace this game now!!

Posted by: alshid on 03-03-2010

I dont know what’s your problem with the ak 47, since the update every camper uses the FAL because takes 2 burst to kill anyone, I dont even use down the irons anymore since I am running with an invalid..

Posted by: AnubisCorsair on 03-03-2010

“finally nerfed the grenades” are you serious?!?! This is like the 4th effin’ time they’ve nerfed them.... At this rate the only way you can get a kill with them is if it lands on their face.. Each update is getting more and more ridiculous. After this announcement I think naughty dog is just trolling....

Posted by: Muhib786 on 03-03-2010

im not a camper!! i refuse to change my style of play to camp!! instead i hunt campers! Serously, down the irons is pretty much useless now and i dont use it anymore!! espically when the FAL, sniper and ak47 have so much accuracy!! but i still role with the ak47!!! m4 occasionally!! same as you alshid i use invalid and bandoleer as my boosters and shoot campers in the face!!! Oh the joy when i kill a camper!!

Posted by: AnubisCorsair on 03-03-2010

Well, I gotta fess up. As much as I hate naughty dog for making all these random and seemingly needless changes, I have to applaud them for keeping us in the loop. It’s nice to see they’re still actively supporting the game and tweaking things, but for the love of sandwiches… ya gotta know when to leave some things alone.

Posted by: ZenesisX on 03-03-2010

Hey arne,

I know this is somewhat irrelevent but for the next update, it would be pretty cool if clans played a bigger role then they do now. As of now they are just a gimmick that has no real value.

Anyone can be apart of a clan without being invited and some clan names are really immature. Im not sure how but i wish this clan thing had alot more features and rules.

Posted by: El_Flash on 03-03-2010

not sure what to say about this update, i finally got to just destroying with the fal (not a camper, watch any of my matches) and now the slow the fire rate? lol, what they needed to do was, nurf the sniper, tired of F*in idiots just camping and shooting u, in the foot, one shot kill sniper. Only headshot or high chest should be one shot kill, with the sniper.

Posted by: Cregan4584 on 03-03-2010

It’s a start. I’ll be happy when you change the health back to 1.04. I am very happy about nerfing the nades and removing the auto switch shoulder view. Also happy about the fort glitch fixes.

AK’s with DTI are now the most powerful weapon in the game, IMO. Fix it, naughty dog!!!!!

PS....I still love you.

Posted by: nicchae on 03-03-2010

Arne, one thing though.

Can FAL still stand up to AK even at close range?

Has ND checked on this prior to decision to nerf FAL by 10%? I’d greatly appreciate your response on this for us FAL users.

Posted by: gwar9999 on 03-03-2010

What’s with the constant gimping of the Dragon Sniper? You used to be able to carry 15 rounds, now only 6 (which is only 1 more than the number it can hold, so you have to press “reload” to get to the one measly round remaining). Now, you’ve reduced the fire rate? How are you supposed to kill two of the hooded choker enemies (in coop) in succession?

Arrrrrrgh, give me back the old Dragon Sniper or at least don’t apply these changes (and the former) to coop!

Posted by: gmoney0505 on 03-03-2010

Ya’ll are not listening to us Naughty Dog.

I’m going to put it in uppercase letters for you:

“CHANGE THE MULTIPLAYER BACK TO THE 1.04 UPDATE AND ADD A CRUSHING PLAYLIST FOR THE ONE’S WHO WANT TO PLAY THE 3RD PERSON CALL OF DUTY GAME. THE GUNS ARE VERY UNBALANCED NOW AND THE SKILL IS GONE OUT THE WINDOW.”

Can y’all get this through y’all darn skulls?

Posted by: Muhib786 on 03-03-2010

Kudos mate!! i agree with you 100%!! yep this game is like modern camp-fare 2!! but the worst bit is the glitching which has gone up a million levels since the 1.05 update!! the fort being the worst candidate!! I just hope this update prevents the glitching in the fort like arne mentioned!!!

Posted by: TehWeirdDude on 03-03-2010

I’m willing to adapt to whatever changes you guys make, but maybe there should be a seperate playlist for the older versions of Uncharted 2? “1.00, 1.01...” And maybe they’d work just like the ‘All Competitive Modes’ playlist? No?
Best keep focusing on new modes, though. Uncharted 2 needs to keep evolving, for better or worse.

Posted by: elsencillo on 03-03-2010

How hard is it to just bring the old health back?? Wouldn’t it be easier for you guys to just bring the old health back?? instead of tweaking and tweaking stuff ... Well I will have to see how it turns out :(

Posted by: Pesico on 03-03-2010

Nice to see you guys continue to care about your multiplayer. Will we see another double cash weekend anytime soon btw? And does it have to be tied to a holiday? I’m often not with my PS3 during those times.

NAUGHTY DOG SUCKS BALLS [edited] NAUGHTY DOG SUCKS BALLS uNTIL THEY PUT THE HEALTH BACK TO NORMAL NAUGHTY DOG SUCKS BALLS

[Edited the post to get rid of the wall of text, when one sentence would have gotten your point through. Please be respectful to readers/commenters. Thanks. - arne]

Posted by: iHalfAsian on 03-03-2010

ND sucks? oh ya, i guess them winning many awards means they suck. The lower health is so subtle its hard to notice. Trust me the old hp was downrigt crazy. If i wanted to put a whole clip into someone i would play halo. ND i salute you, however i would like better head dmg. Make the aiming pros happy. :D

Posted by: iHalfAsian on 03-03-2010

WOAH, ND, ya ok u added some less dmg on the legs, thats cool but how about headshots. Cant you make that any better, its like im hitting the body when i hit the head, i swear there is no difference between shooting he body or shooting the head.

Posted by: meltron69 on 03-03-2010

Wow. You´ve been really quick guys with your next update. Looking forward how these fine adjustments will affect the gameplay. And to all these people who are still crying for their 1.4.-Version: Why don´t you just shut up and quit playing the multiplayer? I really don´t understand this permanent complaining about lowered health etc. Instead be happy that naughty dog keeps this genius multiplayer in the flow and try to adjust your gameplay to the refinements. Things are likely to change in life. And this talk about camping I dont´t understand at all. If you find somebody camping, just shoot him and that´s it. And Naughty Dog: Keep on going to squeeze out the best possible experience out of this awesome multiplayer. Amen

Posted by: THE_DIGZ on 03-03-2010

I am done with this game. Going back to Halo 3’s MLG playlist. (kew word there is playlist) If you guys ever want to look at how to adjust a game for the fans take a look at what Bungie does, THEY CREATE PLAYLIST, not adjust the entire dynamics of the game across the board. Thanks for ruining a fun game.

Posted by: arlenblogdotcom on 03-03-2010

In the 1.5 thread, I originally posted saying I liked 1.5. After playing it a bit, the multiplayer has lost some of its indescribable fun spirit. It’s like the mise-en-scene of a good movie—sometimes you can’t describe what’s missing, but it’s the difference between good and great.

If you want my humble two cents, why not just increase the health back? Why make all these disempowering weapon changes to achieve the same effect by proxy? The people who like the 1.5 changes seem disinterested, while the people who dislike the patch are really, really passionate.

Players like to have abilities, to be able to do MORE things. Why don’t we make a one-hit kill game, but everyone is blind? Or weapons can only fire one bullet per minute? Because people want to be able to do more, not less, and spectators want to be able to see skilled players be able to express themselves.

Look at Super Smash Bros. Melee versus Super Smash Bros Brawl for example. Look how Brawl has faded into obscurity among the mavens of the Smash Bros. Because they disempowered their players. Don’t make the same mistake.

Posted by: Blueforce7 on 03-03-2010

I can’t help but to agree somewhat. I still enjoy uncharted 2 MP alot, but something from 1,04 seems missing. And Amen to the last Paragraph about SSBM & SSBB. I was once a very good Melee player, I gave up on Brawl. I even hacked my wii to get the ‘’Brawl+.’’ No joke. lol

Posted by: Explosion2 on 03-03-2010

The only thing I don’t get is why they’re making the sniper rifle weaker. It’s supposed to be a power weapon, and a challenge to kill the guy who’s got it. That’s why there’s only one on the map at a time.

Posted by: GMRcris on 03-03-2010

I was kind of wondering why my stats for Uncharted 2 have been off for like a week now. It still says I am a level 59 yet I have been a 60 for like a week now and it says I haven’t logged in since February 28 which is impossible since I was online yesterday. I would imagine it has something to do with that PSN error thing but I don’t see why my stats still are off.

I am interested in seeing how the update changes the game. I personally use Down the Irons all the time and I am interested in seeing if that 10% is noticeable. I also don’t mind reducing the radius of the grenades since I rarely use them. I do use the FAL a lot since most of my kills come from it and I am interested in seeing how that effects it’s efficiency. I really don’t like how the sniper is a one hit kill now since I think more people go for it now than ever before since it’s an easy kill. I am interested in seeing how the hit-boxes affect the gameplay. I look forward to trying out the update tomorrow.

Posted by: Kaixen on 03-03-2010

i dont think reducing the rate of the FAL is a good thing… uncharted 2 its supposed to be an action game --Cover, shoot, cover, run, etc--..hehe… not a freaking bad company 2 sniper game…

i hope u guys change that in the future…

Posted by: JmacNS on 03-03-2010

What in God’s name is the auto-shoulder switch????

And ND, you effed up a perfect game with the BS 1.05 update. Do you morons not realize this game was given “perfect” reviews by numerous critics???? Why mess with something that’s good? Insomniac games did this same BS to Resistance 2 and NO ONE hardly plays that game. More people still play the first Resistance. Open your freakin eyes ND.

Posted by: zuarichi on 03-03-2010

ARE YOU * SERIOUS “Reduced rate of fire of the FAL by 10%,Reduced rate of fire for the Dragon Sniper by 10%” you guys should really stop listening to all the level 1-20 noobs, THIS SHIT SUCKS NOW BIG TIME

Posted by: Okrend87 on 03-03-2010

Guys they are not reducing the damage on the FAL and sniper they are reducing the rate of fire which is how fast it shoots. This is ok but the FAL wont stand a chance against the AK at close range. The grenades defiantly need this reduced range. One thing i would fix next time is the melee system because the range is too short and it is not accurate at all.

Posted by: korgon117 on 03-03-2010

Um sorry to say this ND but this still wont change it back to 1.04 very much. I and many other players aim for the body all the time anyway so the limb thing probably wont work out well. The sniper should still take 2 shots for a kill unless in da head, because it takes much more skill. Not really sure y u guys nerfed da FAL, should have brought that at least back to 1.04 because it took expert timing in order to shoot that other burst to get the kill so not happy about that. glitching on fort getting fixed is good. Auto aim leaving is good. But one thing about da new maps, on facility plunder, 1 treasure spawn is literally directly above a treasure chest, put it somewhere else or get rid of it, either way it sucks. Thanks for kinda listening

Posted by: Egarth on 03-03-2010

Wow ND, I hope you all have really thick skin! You make the greatest game ever and work to keep improving it and giving us DLC and so many people just keep complaining. If reading the posts gets too depressing, just go look at all of your awards and know that many of us appreciate what you do. Thanks!

Posted by: twelfthdoctor on 03-03-2010

is this update (in any way) going to help with the stats sync on the website? In game, i actually made it to level 21 (I’m finally getting better at killing instead of being killed LOL) but the website says level 8. It actually keeps changing too, sometimes it says 6, then 8 again. Really weird.

Aside from that very minor thing, this game is AWESOME ... ignore the people flinging loads of dren in your direction and keep up the good work.

Posted by: mikex6989 on 03-03-2010

wat i want to know is it normal for games to change their dynamics 5 months after the release? 5 months after people have played and gained skill?

and is it normal for games to update their multiplayer every 3-4 weeks? its like a different game every other week. WTF.

Posted by: griever666usa on 03-03-2010

OK, ND, you got the wrong message here. 1.05 is bad, don’t need to make it worse, you know? Decreasing 10% rate of fire it’s irrelevant, reducing grenade radius is bad, killing the only booster I like it’s worse! Now I can play without boosters and look cool, thanks!/sarcasm
Why you only remove cheating from the fort? They cheat everywhere! Why can’t you do that with all the maps?
If you’re trying to make us not play anymore, just say so! It’s not a pleasure anymore to play, it’s frustrating...I’ll give this a chance, but I bet you won’t see me online for long.

Posted by: ravex99 on 03-03-2010

I am a bit confused by this update ND. It seems to me that you are incapable of reading your audience.

1. Prior to update 1.05, the complaining that I heard from your fanbase was mostly about glichers with the occasional ‘nerf grenades’ thrown in there. I am also not counting the wish list type of posts like ‘please more co-op maps’, ‘more skins’, etc.

2. You then have a poll about the experimental weekend which others have pointed out that your conclusions were WAY off. How you read it the way you did baffles me. I voted ‘give it its own play list’. I hated the experimental weekend configuration, but wanted to provide a different way to play for those that liked it. You seemed to think everyone that voted that way loved it.

3. Your solution to the poll is update 1.05. Immediately the traffic on your site increases and you have more feedback than you ever had, most of it negative. But, instead of reverting the code back to 1.04 and re-thinking your strategy, you decide to push ahead as is. The fact that 1.05 came out with the changes it did tells me that you were NOT listening to us.

4. Now we get 1.06. It seems that your response to the diehard ‘PLEASE give me 1.04 back’ supporters is reduced fire rates and a nerfed Down the Irons booster. I realize we didn’t play this update yet, but I don’t think it is going to satisfy them. (PS. With your recent actions, I am surprised you didn’t fix gliching by making it easier for everyone to do it. )

I think you completely segregated your audience at this point, something reverting quickly back to 1.04 would have eliminated. And now I feel like you are trying to fix a gaping wound with tiny Band-Aids. I have played only twice since 1.05 came out. I simply do not enjoy how the game plays anymore. I don’t know if I will even try 1.06, but I still come to your site everyday just to see what’s going on and read the comments. Perhaps that just shows how much I used to like the game.

Posted by: arne on 03-03-2010

Focusing on the poll results isn’t really the way to go. We were already considering making some type of gameplay change prior to Experimental Weekend and the poll. The poll helped us get a general sentiment of things and help us decide what paths were worthwhile.

I’ve said more times than I can count that we did seriously consider a separate playlist, but ultimately that was not workable for us due to a variety of factors.

(And, while we didn’t take the poll results as an absolute vote, if you wanted to do so, only 1 response had the highest number of responses in the poll.)

We’re not a community-designed game, but we take account the feedback and opinions of our players. We have to work between the specific intent and vision of our game developer and the DNA of our game, and what feels satisfying to the players at large. That is where we’ve ended up right now.

Posted by: Ouazegaga on 03-03-2010

Hi and WOW!

1.06 is already here. Great job, ND.

So, everything sounds good to me:

Removed automatic shoulder selection when players click the L1 shoulder button to aim

Yeah!!! The worst idea in the history of worst ideas is finally gone.

Delayed the appearance of the scoreboard to allow time for players to view any medals received simultaneously with player death

Great.

Adjusted hitbox attributes so that players will take less damage to the character’s legs

Another great news. Players should aim again (a little bit more)

Decreased kill radius of grenades by 1 meter

At last!!! Because recently, games were like “Grenades War”. :D

Decreased accuracy of Down the Irons by 15%
Reduced rate of fire of the FAL by 10%
Reduced rate of fire for the Dragon Sniper by 10%

I hope these adjustements will be enough to prevent people to only play with these weapons.

Will 15% decreased DTI be enough to no longer see somebody kill you with an AK from the other side of the map?

Will 10% reduced rate of fire be enough to allow players escape before the 2nd FAL’s burst or 2nd sniper’s shot?

I hope. I will see that tomorrow.

Collision and geometry changes to “The Fort” to prevent intentional glitching by players

No more cheaters?? Really? It would be too good to be true! lol

Whatever, I’m very impatient to test these adjustements by myself tomorrow.

And once again: thank you, ND!

Posted by: leviathanSP on 03-03-2010

Glad to see you guys are getting rid of the abomination known as 1.05. With the changes you listed it sounds like things will be relatively back to normal as the thing I know a lot of people wanted was the leg hitbox back which you guys have addressed and are adding back in.

I wholeheartedly agree with your nerfing of DTI as it was INCREDIBLY annoying to be shot with an AK from across a map by someone using it, not to mention 80% of the people I play use it; it got very redundant. With the increase in power to the FAL and the Dragon Sniper, I think the 10% nerf on them should be enough to balance it out.

Looks like 1.06 will be the best yet and I really thankyou guys for listening to everyone!
