Beta 3 RC1

A question: Why don't replace Elite(exp) with new Elite, because there are only one server and nobody plays Elite(exp).

I don't say it is a minute, but it was to illustrate that "balance" is a different question than "choices"

does not mean it works, but "taste" "balance" "maps" "diversity" are many different things that are sometimes mixed

Understood, but a balance is something that looks like it is being implemented well with this update.

Seems like a nice idea

Hylis, i'm agree when u say : "Test and give ur opinion after"... But there...

"5. Elite mode: defense can now select their weapon. If they select laser, attacker always locates them."

No, no, no, no. Ok the defenser is anounced on the screen and ? With some aim, the defenser can put, easy, a "touch".
All is unbalance now. Moreover, the game loses his charm and his purpose, in my opinion. The difference between defense and attack weapon was based.

Confruggy, the answer is in the question

It will requires a lot of time before tests are done by players. Many top players will still practice the beta 2 one. So, the best option to have real tests is to push it more in the front. I could have put Elite Exp pack as the Elite B2 one, but I though it would be easier to players and host to be like that.

It will take a week I think to have the flames a little softer and start to see more clearly about what to improve for Elite. I had 20% of critics at the studio with first hours of tests. In the end, everybody liked it more (and some, much more) I don't say it is perfect, and we may have to find solution to improve it, but I just wished to say it takes time to test.

And even if some people would like us to leave things static, I should add that the instant half ammo is another big change. I think more people will like it faster, and I think that some people will also have things to say again.

And since we have a lot of positive feedback from Elite players on all the job we are doing day and night, I can say that the Elite lobby will benefit two new features for it: a lobby section in server browser and the total amount of players in a lobby&servers as the amount of players in the lobby. In addition, since optimization on CPU, loading time are great as well, it should be more comfortable to switch from servers.

No, i ment Elite(exp) replacing with new Elite.

[Hylis]

We prefer to use an option than another title, to make things simpler, and more tested

Music? Yeah, thanks!
