I bought the scrambler with my first 9800 tokens, inspired by nilocy scrapping in 21s, leaving only the jumper to unlock. i have no clue how to play him anyway.

Woooo, an update. I'm too lazy to google patch notes, so here's a quick breakdown:
- an UNHOLY FUCKLOAD of fixes;
- 3 classes merged into the other 9;
- 16 new weapons;
- customization of loadouts.

All xp and tokens earned and spent previously are refunded. Now everyone will have access to the Soldier, Pathfinder and Juggernaut class.

Wow, the new weapons are a lot of fun. Scrappers been nerfed not by a huge amount actually, admittedly its now 2 grenades instead of 3 base, the impulse radius has been reduced. But overall, still doable : D. Though the perk system now forces you to choose between Egocentric or flag reach.

Hopefully they focus on physics tweaks now.  100% inheritance for life! (either 100% or 0%.)

Last patch is awesome, now matches start to be more like old Tribes 2, not just everybody playing with the cheap classes and a sniper.

Tech is fun as heck even if the thumper is kind of ridiculous.

Stealth spinfusor? An infiltrator weapon that doesn't suck?! Can this be real?

This patch was like an infiltrator's wet dream. Access to a spinfusor AND extra health. The SMG was nerfed, but who cares? Spinfusor! Technicians getting the thumper is nice too, no more reason to complain about them being lightly armed - their thumper is bigger than the soldier's.

Still have my favorite perks too. The melee damage bonus (which now comes with melee damage reduction) and survivalist. And I had enough XP to fully unlock Infiltrator and get partial unlocks on some of the other classes.

The update is awesome, unfortunetly I still can't get into a game for some reason. It loads forever then it boots me back to the title screen.
