I was excited for the AK Trumpet but I don't want to spend ZP on a gamble for a temporary one. The dolls are cute though.

Great update, but why not change the coupon weapons? Most of us already had all of them before you added the hornet set. Can't spin any crates untill they are changed, would be a total waste of coupons.

Well you got your hopes high my friend. They initially added Hornet set (without taking away current perm weapons for 150 coupons). So it was expected that Hornet set was going to be removed without any other update in the coupon shop. We will need to wait a bit more to see new additions. For now you can either exchange current coupons for useful items like: Temp bags, zm mag, stabilizers for Wave Mode, etc. Or you can wait patiently.

What we need now is the fix for the current patch errors and of course FPS drops which seems that haven't been addressed yet at all.

It makes me laugh that the GMS lie about what they fixed the FPS. In fact, now I think I'm worse off than before, at least they reached me to 100 and now not even 50 go up. "Good job" lying to the community. Keep launching promotions and leaving aside the needs of users.

I really like this patch! It's very nicely balanced and is probably one of the better patches this year along with March Update.

Mahakala

Framerate is handled by your computers GPU. I'm sure there are people with potato PCs playing this, but that's not what's causing all the threads about bad performance. Unfortunately, it's not a framerate issue that's causing problems; horrible server latency causing massive spikes in ping is the problem, commonly known as server lag. People probably don't know the difference, and are attributing one to the other.

Is the game running in slow motion constantly? Does making your character say "Roger" sound like "Roooooggggeeeerrr"? Is the sound distorted like it's playing at half speed? That's frame rate issues caused by a weak PC.

Can you move at full speed, while enemies appear to walk in place before the game locks up for a second and everyone appears to teleport? Does your ping jump from 40 to 360 when a player joins or leaves a game? That's server latency.

On a positive note, everything seems to load a bit faster now, which is nice, but the server's need an upgrade, or at least a revision of how they handle synchronizing players. Player's de-sync, ping spikes and when it stabilizes you're dead or turned into a mutant without even seeing what happened. The hacker problem was finally dealt with (and massive kudos for that, they were infuriating) but as long as the server stay the way they are, people are still going to be experiencing issues.

Yeah, one can always hope. Not sure if i consider anything useful other than the perm weaps right now. Don't use extra bags, as i don't care that much about xp. As for the others, im concentrating on S&D ranked right now, so i don't have much use for ZM stuff. Stabilizers are okay, but investing anything in Wave outside of an event doesn't feel that meaningful. I love Wave, but, as i've only played it a little, i get thrown out for being low level before the match starts or in the match because they wan't some friend to join. Doesn't know how many times i've been outvoted, saying that i use the tmp in chat, which i don't even own one. Got tired of it around January and won't play any Wave outside of event, or until they take away the vote kick. So i guess i'll wait and let the free and event boxes stack and stop recharging until they change the coupon weapons, even if it takes until christmas.

I actually see more lagg problems now, than before the update, so they have to fix it. Im stable in FPS and have low ping, but i don't think i played a match today without seeing people teleporting around, seeing my shots connect, but do now damage and getting shot by players, that have their back to me. Whatever they did with the game in the update, it went horribly wrong.

Im gonna keep begging, whining and complaining about it. It's my right as a player :) One of the driving forces by me staying to play this game, is the weapon collecting.
