July 25th Cloud Update...

We will be pushing a Cloud Update to the Ghost Recon Future Soldier clients on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on July 25th at 10:00am EDT (14:00 UTC, 7:00 PDT, 16:00 CET).

Servers will be rebooted and players will need to reconnect to the service in order to receive the update. Expected duration of the downtime is less than 5 minutes.

Changes Include:
Increased XP Values for the Stockade Game Type
Decreased Stand Alone and Under Barrel HE Grenade Launcher Ammo Count to 1
Increased the Power of all Bolt Action Rifles (ex, MSR and KSVK)
Increased the Magazine Capacity of the VSS to 20 Rounds
Decreased the Speed of the Data Hack while Using the Field Computer
Fixed the UI’s Display of Several Alternate Spawn Locations

Please note that we will continue to monitor HE Grenade Launcher and Frag Grenade usage and make adjustments as necessary.

To verify that you have properly downloaded the Cloud Update, visit the Extras Menu and check the version number in the bottom right corner; it should read 1.X.5


As much as I like running around and using my noob toob I'm glad they are decreasing it to only 1 grenade. Better make it count! Other than that none of the rest affects me.

.

was happy till i read that part... i wounder how much they decreased it and if it will even be worth using anymore over normal hack speed
we shall see

I agree I would prefer no noob toob but if it's in the game Im using it.
Ucav still has more than 1 though????
I don't like the slowing down data hack with the field computer, if there isn't that much of an advantage to using it then it is almost going to be used less. If so I may switch to using a sentry, jammer or a ucav

The UCAV will remain the same. The change is only on the HE grenade launchers. The EMP and Smoke launchers will still have 2 rounds.

The slowing down of the FC is only on actual data hacks. On objectives it will still remain the same.

Take a grenade away from my underbarrel launcher...hah I'll just resupply myself, so there! In your face!

Apparently people are reporting that all grenades from launchers (EMP's and Smokes) have been reduced to one also even though the dev on the forums specifically said they would not be effected.
