Kinda makes you wonder why they didn't just release 7.4.1 and avoid the bad feeling that was created with 7.4.  The RU server had the same issue a week ago!

Yay to Micro Icons.  Not sure about the other stuff.  Must be a record for getting rid of maps.

Maybe they figured we wouldnt notice?

In any event hopefully this fixes 95% of the problems at least and we can get back to gaming again.

Yes, yes you did.  I read it as getting rid of zero damage crits in the case of penetration of suspension, gun, or spaced armour.

There are still lots of crits other than those.

No this is a new patch tomorrow

Last night someone hit the lightswitch that said "DO NOT TURN OFF" and there we all went

Spaced armour is designed to protect against HE rounds.  Its actually less effective than solid plate armour against AP rounds.

I would hope the mechanics will be adjusted to suit this situation.
