Recruits, We have had so much wonderful feedback in the past few days! Since this project began we've mostly been testing the game ourselves and with a small handful of players. The new influx of data has been so helpful to us! Thank you! We've been looking at the data and using this unique opportunity with so many new players to make some additional adjustments to the game to address the following pain points: [list] [*] The enemy's vehicles are too hard later on vs the player vehicles. [*] The Merc is a bit too strong at rank 3. [*] Buying things at the arms dealer makes you feel like you're missing out on upgrades. [/list] We've made some adjustments to the game to address these issues. These are by no means final, but we want to help make the play experience smoother for as many people as we can now while we work towards a more permanent solution in the future. Moving forward, we'll be turning our attention back to the Roadmap to get some new content, features and polish into the game. We will continue to monitor all balance issues and address them as needed.
