Thank you for the heartfelt send off Deringer. And sorry I didn't respond to your DM on twitter, its been a pretty crazy couple of days. I am confident all of the team members let go from the PlanetSide team will find new jobs very quickly. They are an incredibly talented bunch of people.

The PTS server will be coming down this evening for an update. New Weapons VE-A1 Lacerta (Vanu Sovereignty - Assault Rifle) The Lacerta assault rifle syncs an accurate, three round burst to a moderate refire rate, and creates a melodic barrage of plasma, perfect for mid-range engagements. MG-A1 Arbalest (Terran Republic - Assault Rifle) Designed as an alternative to the popular SABR-13 assault rifle, the Arbalest fires concentrated, 6-round bursts with low recoil and high takedown potential at mid-range. MGR-A1 Vanquisher (New Conglomerate - Assault Rifle) The Vanquisher's performance is defined by its excellent stopping power over distance, delivered through a low recoil, three-round burst. UI Changes and Fixes
  • Character select screen no longer shows squished character models. (Previous attempts to fix this had failed.)
  • Squads now have an option ...

At 6AM Pacific on August 27th the Briggs server will be merged with the SolTech server. All characters currently associated with Briggs will become SolTech characters. That same morning we will be opening a character transfer window between the SolTech and Connery servers. That window will stay open until the end of September (9/30/2019 @ 11:59pm Pacific). Merging the Briggs server was not a decision we came to easily and we hope the Briggs players this merge is effecting will understand why this has to happen. That reason being the population of players on Briggs is not able to sustain the costs of continuing to operate in that region. We appreciate the support the game has received from all of the Briggs players and hope they will continue to play PlanetSide 2 on either SolTech or Connery servers for the foreseeable future. Our apologies if this announcement seems a bit late, we spent a very long time weighing all our options as to how best to proceed. A small note on character tra... Read more

Ok thanks for the response

Can we get a confirmation that your keeping an eye on our bug reports? Some major ones include no one having name tags and 2018-like stuttering

We are paying very close attention yes.

Current known issues I am tracking: (QA is collecting even more and I'm trying to prioritize traffic) Out of memory crashes are not gone. (although appear to be much better) Name tags not rendering. Promotional Platinum Tengu costs 1 BC instead of 1 Cert. Valk model being borked on the EU version of the game. Night time is way to dark right now.

This should be 1 cert, not 1 BC.

Yes, the bug is in how the animation network causes the audio events. This much we know. We are still tracking down all of the details of how the animation network gets in this broken state. Turns out its not a simple as detecting and preventing the broken state.
