In the new patch, your hard work in sharpening your skills will not be in vain thanks to the addition of the new Achievement System. All 3 roles (gunner, pilot, engineer) will have their own set of 6 mission chains that contain an array of achievements to unlock. With each achievement you unlock for each role, you’ll be also leveling up in the ranks and earn titles that will be displayed for you and everyone to see. Wear your rank and title with pride as you challenge your friends to see if they have what it takes to even get close to your fine skills.
Gunners also have something new to look forward to in the new patch. Gunner skills now all function as special ammunition that affects a whole clip at a time, and are changed by reloading the gun. Imagine unloading a full clip of your own special brand of might into the your enemy’s ship, showing what it really means to be the sharpest shooter in the skies.
These along with some fixes and tweaks will have you looking at your ships and crews in a new light as you ready yourselves for battles that will earn your both pride and honor.
On the development team today, things are taking shape in the form of targets for the soon-to-be-released updated Sandbox map for the game. Here players can practice things like shooting and steering out of the usual combat scenarios in order to perfect their craft. AI bugs are also being tackled and fixed so that we no longer need to worry about the AI being “less than reliable”. (ex. AI!?!?!?!?!?!)
