We're fixing a whole bunch of online exploits. For example we've fixed the ability to wield an invisible shield, melee through some walls, gain infinite Lancer ammo and equip a shield and a two-handed weapon simultaneously plus many more. We're also making several small changes to improve the overall online gameplay experience. A few of the ones that might interest you are; increased penalties for quitting matches early, adding additional spawn protection against planted grenades and chainsaw attacks, and adding the ability to see the Submission flag carrier destination by using Tac/Com. We know you folks love achievements so on the achievement side we're adding achievement progress numbers to the War Journal, increasing the frequency of in-game Achievement progression notifications and adding some new Achievements for DLC. This is just a very small list of some of the things that will be in the next title update but one more item which has been talked about a lot in our forums deserves a special call out...About that shotgun... We fixed the client side hit detection on the shotgun so that in a high-latency (i.e. “laggy”) match, the shotgun will be more reliable. We've also fixed another bug whereby shotgun and boomshot rounds could strike the ground when firing from the hip. So there's a brief status report on the next title update. At some point I expect we'll post a more detailed list but I assure you we're working hard to get this out the door and once it's done we'll start working on the next update. We'll try to do a better job keeping you informed of our progress on future updates and we'll try to be a little more active in the forums once this update is released.
