Woohoo! Thanks for the patch. Excited to get it all spun up and test it out when our mods catch up 🙂

@Ritual You should make a seperate thread for this on the suggestions subforums. Steam, PS4 and Xbox do have options to PM players, but I’ve seen PMs suggested a few times. (PMs should just be implemented in that case, it shouldn’t really be an admin-only feature imo)

@errordetection You may or may not be aware that building is an intended feature. It’s allowed as a PvP tactic for building on strategic areas, but in extreme cases (such as blocking off spawn) can be dealt with (see [https://forums.funcom.com/t/harassment-and-griefing-issues/15950](https://forums.funcom.com/t/harassment-and-griefing-issues/15950)). Players should be able to build across the entire map, it’s not easy to detect when something’s spam building or not (or the game has to do a lot of calculations, which is not good for performance)  
Also, they can’t explain certain exploits because it gives exploiters an easy lead on how to exploit any remaining issues.

> Added fuse time to explosive jars to limit the abuse of some macros.

@zerog yes, that would indeed mean that you can no longer instantly detonate them. They’ll need to wait for the fuse time to end before they can start detonating another one.  
(regardless if an action is required, idk if that’s the case)

It’s meant to be that way.

Well, not really. But it’s one of those bugs that everybody loves and have come to think of as a feature.

@Larathiel Unfortunate that this is the case.([https://forums.funcom.com/t/chest-respawn-time-take-ages/56242/4](https://forums.funcom.com/t/chest-respawn-time-take-ages/56242/4)) You should report this to the bug subforums if you haven’t recently. From what I can find, it hasn’t been reported in a long time and is specific to only a handful of people (possibly only the group of official server which your server is part of).

@Grymm @Barnes just to give double confirmation, Steam in general is/was actually down. It’s not just you and it’s not an issue with the game (the last one was a nice pun) 😉

@Karrotcake You should make a seperate thread on the suggestions subforums. This is a suggestion which hasn’t gotten active requests from the community since 2018 after its presumed removal in Early Access.([1](https://forums.funcom.com/t/option-to-disable-camera-shake/11195))

@Kilix I can’t find if it’s been fixed after its latest appearance in August, but you should make a seperate thread on these bugforums if you still experience this issue.

Well like I said earlier, as of this patch it’s finally working as intended/desired, so there’s nothing to report. I’m just surprised that it wasn’t like this for others all this time. 🙂

I was thinking the same thing. the cheesing of bomb dropping during melee encounters affected as well? I will have to log in tonight, and test.

I will suggest change too, visible players nick on the steam. If we check servers list and more details we can read who be on the server despite such a solution in the game. I think its good idea if steam and battlemetrics don’t give information about players played in this server in the moment.

Can verify this. Lowered elevators are back up when you leave and come back into range.
