Hey u/BioCamden I would @ Ben/Mike but I'm not a twitter user.

Do you know if its intentional that the Ranger's frost grenade has no base damage component? Its the only skill (outside of support skills) in the game that does no damage.

This means against enemies with a blue bar it does literally nothing, because they're immune to primers. I'm not sure if this was by design or just an oversight, Ranger's really struggle with blue shielded enemies because we have no damage on our frost skill and our melee is the only source of electric damage (but can't melee flying guys)

Would love if you could pass this on, so we get even a minor damage component added so its not entirely redundant against prime immune enemies. Thanks!

Thank you for taking the time to reply. To be honest it was one of the biggest concerns I had during alpha gameplay. Looking forward to these said improvements.

As someone who found flying tricky (mainly sudden turns/movements to avoid face-diving into cliff-edges) and swimming basically impossible, this is very heartening to hear. Thanks!

Ayyyyyyyy, thanks for the update! My bf didn’t think they were bad other than the swimming, that seemed to be universally challenging lmao

Should we expect any console changes as well? The customization for controls on PS4 felt limited in a way but I’m not sure how to describe it other than the obvious lack of button remapping. I’ve read that that would be too complicated, though?

Either way, that was such a fast turn around I’m astonished at how it seems you guys are getting more efficient! 💖

Added Auto-Centering for PC Flight

Added auto-centering behavior on swimming and flying by default for PC.

When mouse input stops (after a delay) the crosshair will automatically return to center.

​

This will singlehandedly fix flying for me I feel.

Awesome news! The PC players definitely appreciate the fact you guys are working so hard to make the game's controls smoother on Mouse and Keyboard.

Hey Camden, since you're here answering questions about javelin abilities, is it at all possible to look into the interceptors charge (spark dash)? As an avid vanguard player in mass effect I was a bit disappointed with the Interceptors charge and how it just goes horizontally in whatever direction you're facing instead of being a target lock on. Feels sort of clunky imo.

Thanks for all your hard work!

Improvements to PC controls.......... Please lord please be true. I was flying around like a drunken Tony Stark in the Alpha.....

Thanks a ton - yeah I didn't mean to presume I knew how it worked; more that the buttons are freed up in terms of assignment. Again thanks so much for the prompt feedback, you guys are really killing it in that department and it's glorious.

Hi /u/BioCamden I have a question about the Storm's Wind Wall. I noticed in the VIP demo while I was flying that the Wind Wall would always bury itself into the ground when placed on the map even if I tried to place it in the air. Is this its intended functionality?

How would that work on controller? 🤔

I wish the Firewall Mortar, when being aimed, would be able to be rotated horizontally left and right with LMB and RMB.

/u/biocamden plz bby can you send this idea to someone? As we cannot fire weapon or aim down sight when in the targeting for an ability, theoretically this should be possible right?

E: grammar

Yep. Several people pointed it out and I apologize. For some reason I thought I had seen posts that had a BioWare reply tagged, and for some reason I haven’t seen any after the demo. Keep up the good job.

There are a total of 31 Dev Comments in the last 24 Hours

Coming from World of Warcraft, this is more communication than what we got from Blizzard in the 6 months Battle for Azeroth has been out. So yeah, I have no idea what OP is talking about. On top of BioWare being very active on reddit, Mark Darrah, Ben Irving, Jonathan Warner and Ninja Mike are answering questions on Twitter all the time. Lack of communication is definitely not an issue here.

Special shoutout to /u/BioCamden. He's a goddamn machine!

Like I said, when shit the fan, most devs disappear because forums turn into a begging/toxicity fest.

They were sure damn active to hype up the demo though.

Still hoping the final game will be great!

I think you misunderstood his second question, it's not "Why is this an online game only" but why is Denuvo in an online game only.

Think we can all agree that Anthem is made to be played with others

Just add it to the list! I would love to see a future large content update add a bit of a UI overhaul, which includes dealing with the wasted space from the slanted menus, to PC menus (less panel scrolling) and something that helps us see both our post-game stats as well as in game character stats in the Forge. A little more color to the weapon and armor rarity would help too, since everything just looks the same with a slightly different border right. See mock up here

Thanks buddy, and happy.... developing?
