Haswell 294 Posted December 27, 2021 https://aw.my.games/en/news/general/maintenance-december-28 Quote On the 28th of December 2021, starting from 8:00 CET (27th of December, 11 PM PST), the server will not be available for 5 hours due to the application of Update 0.38.8646 List of Update 0.38.8646 Changes All autocannons with overheat mechanics now fire short bursts equal to 0.7 second of standard weapon fire upon pressing the firing button once (this is to address an exploit where it was possible under certain circumstances to fire the autocannon without overheating it) Carson City: Fixed the collision model of the building that players could fire through Carson City: Fixed an issue where the collision models didn’t change upon environmental object destruction Carson City: Fixed several rock collision models Carson City: Fixed a number of small visual issues Bandaid fix for dakka. Instead of tying overheating to number of shots fired, they are just going to make you hold the trigger down longer. Lazy coding. Quote Spoiler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MK_Regular 24 Posted December 28, 2021 Fuck it, I'm taking a break from AW. Wake me up when they make a patch that doesn't contain braindead balance changes or equally braindead bandaid fixes for said changes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
knutliott 41 Posted December 28, 2021 I mean... this is a pretty simple fix for the exploit compared to completely changing the way the overheat mechanic works. I really don't see a problem with it. It's not like it (in concept) breaks anything, and no one except people trying to use the exploit will even notice it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
