Patch 1 Changelist [ETA: 11/22/2012]

[b3h47pte]

The TDM crash was fixed I believe -- seems to have been skipped in the change logs.

[plaze2]

Someone post pictures of all the helmets please.

Also arrows are better but crossbows are still useless.

[ChJees]

The "balance" fixes for Javelins make no sense... Can any dev bring light on why these was made? For me they just look altered for being altereds sake.
I want at least one argument to why the ammo count are being drastically lowered.

[vile.zoidberg]

Is it just me, or is the third attack keybind missing?

[Martin]

A couple of other balance changes missing from the list:

Warbow Bodkin ammo decreased to 20
Warbow Broadhead ammo decreased to 20
Crossbow bolt speed increased from 5500 to 7500
Light Crossbow bolt speed increased from 5500 to 6500
Light Crossbow ammo increased to 20
Heavy Crossbow bolt speed increased from 6000 to 8500
Short Spears/Javelin slowed to 70% movement speed during reload
Heavy Javelin slowed to 60% movement speed during reload

It's not all bad for the Crossbows afterall

I think part of the problem is that animation of the throw and never really knowing the timing of release so that as a defender, possibly knowing when to attempt a dodge. Lowering the ammo count also prevents the throw spam forcing the player to be more accurate and Javs being more precious and then forcing a reload or melee.

Wow some great changes in the patch! Helmets and new ffa colours! <3

Where is the warhammer nerf though?

[b3h47pte]

Thanks Martin, edited those in.

Is this what you think is missing in this patch or what the dev's already changed but forgot to post?
If it's second one: THERE IS SO MUCH WIN IN THIS PATCH!!!! <33333

The bolt speed only helps to hit things at very long distances. The same problems that were there before are still there.
