The 1.30 PATCH POLL

Also I think the bogus times are all very easy to distinguish from genuine times as the fake ones have a zero in the speed pads column.

The only thing about 1.3 that really pisses me off is the added power given to the weapons. Luck is now outweighing skill by a large margin in weapons races. As long as they don't fix that, it's only Avalon for me.

Yeah, mines and rockets in particular. The final laps in a 8 player race can be quite the mine fest. I actually like what they did to the leach beam and bombs. Took some getting used to not to aim directly for the bombs to avoid them - I still do it when I'm not paying attention

It was like that in 1.2, not because of weapon power but because the weapon pads still take an eternity and a half to regenerate - I mean, give me a f***ing break, sometimes I have to lift off when I'm following someone too close just to pick up a weapon to absorb my shields when I'm running low.

Other than that I'm starting to find it funny how angry people are getting now that they can join a race in progress.

random thought on spectator mode:
The implementation for spectators is a bit iffy, mostly because of the fps, so maybe instead of giving cockpit views have an overhead representation of the course with ships on it, think pixel junk racers

brilliant, i think thats more fun to watch than a camera that just circles around one ship!
