This build is live. For those who can tell time, it's late. No build notes. I'm sure someone will get them soon (*cough cough Raevn cough cough*) It's basically very close to the last PTE build with some perf optimizations, adjustments to balance, and a number of additional bug fixes. Please rock the heck out of this build. We're hoping to promote it to the main live build tomorrow if no major regression issues are found.

What about the advance radar satallite and the orbital laser and solar panels. How are they going to be build?
I just played a match and the only issues I noticed were the new health and ammo bars sometimes flickering (nothing serious..only noticed it while watching the replay) and the ai seemingly not being able to handle the new balance that well (it wastes LOTS of resources). Apart from that I only noticed huge improvements in every regard from the previous builds Edit: Stinger can shoot trees and make them burn using the attack command. Is that intentional ? Edit 2: Infernos and Vanguards on the other hand don't seem to be able to set trees afire..rather ironic
Random crash.. Also the loading effect for ammo can sometimes be seen thru fog of war.. i could see pelters via that even tho i had never scouted them.. i rather like not having advance sat anymore.... keep it what way! if you want vision do it the hardway!
Seemed to be the transparent icon mod messing up the health bars for me - but it didn't cause crashes. New sniper bots look weird, going to play with them more to define "weird" better soon. Dox are more like Dox again! Hurray! They seem to shoot really high up on stuff, like they're expecting the shot to arc more, and their projectiles should be a little more direct now to make them more different to the grenadiers.
Are icons, metal spot icons and health bars not displayed for you? I had that bug with all mods disabled in the previous pte build.
I had crashes when using mods. other than that all good. I love new sniper bot. Old one looked a little bit silly
I have this shadow bug which seems different from the shadow problems I had before on the day/night border. (Since those were supposed to be fixed, I guess it is related to that fix...<- genius right there).
