Personnel Change
AFS HQ is pleased to announce the promotion of April "CuppaJo" Burba from Community Commander to Associate Producer. Rest assured Amy "Critters" Crider is still here to care for the morale and concerns of all troops and will be leading the community charge. /salute!
Speed of Combat
We've noticed your concerns with the speed of combat and soloability since 1.4. These issues stem from the way attributes worked with creatures pre-patch to the way they work now. There are several changes in 1.5 that may improve upon this issue, but we are still investigating additional changes.
1.5 Patch Note Preview
When being Resuscitated on the battlefield, the player now receives a confirmation dialog box, allowing choice of whether and when to be revived.
Created and implemented various icons for defaults and ammunition icons signifying difference in grade.
Armor Optimization: We are working to make player armor more efficiently use video card resources. In this publish, we have optimized all Light Armor suits. This may cause slight changes to the visual appearance of some piece of Light Armor.

Player Event: Cassiopeia
This Wednesday, the folks from the 47th AFSEF (http://www.47thafsef.com/comms/index.php) clan helped rescue and escort two stranded pilots whose dropship had been shot down by Bane insurgents. Check out the destruction and bravery of these men and women in these photos (http://www.planettr.com/forums/showthread.php?p=43682#post43682) courtesy of Planet TR. (http://www.planettr.com/)
Upcoming Player Event
The Great Nitroglazer Hunt of Torden Plains
Intel reports large numbers of Nitroglazers are being dispatched to Torden Plains. Their objective is unclear; possibly flaregasher suppression, climate change, or endothermic troop destruction. It doesn't matter. We just need those hovering bots smashed into the ground.
Unfortunately, the intel group tasked with tracking these deep freezers must have sniffed too much cryogen. They've gone off the deep end and are only communicating in gibberish or riddles. High command doesn't have the people necessary to replace these intel jokers so its up to you to decipher their ravings to figure out where the nitroglazers are landing.
Assembly point: Pegasus server - Mt. Hellas Outpost courtyard (outdoors).
Time: Tuesday, February 12 at 9:00 EST, 8:00 CST, 7:00 MST, 6:00 PST
