OK you ICC hardheads,get your arses in Beta and play with the new shields so you get used to what they do and how to do it.You dont,you're an idiot and I dont fly with idiots.
well....not always.
[ Message from BackSlash ]
Sorry FC, going to steal a bit of your first post so people can see the changes without scrolling halfway down.
Current issues:
1) Bonus is being applied to charge rate and not charge amount.
2) Some misc issues with shield swapping.
Issue 1 will be fixed next beta release.
Things requiring testing:
1) Usability in combat. It's not designed to be used in combat, and I don't want to see it being used in combat except in perhaps last-ditch attempts.
2) Recharge time out of combat after battles.
Things requiring feedback:
1) Hotkey usage (is the current toggle mode ok?).
2) Bonus/Penalty harshness. [ This Message was edited by: BackSlash on 2010-05-19 09:23 ]

I was going to make a post, but I'll leech this one. For the past few days I've been working on how best to impliment a fix for shield regen out of combat compared to other factions, whilst also allowing a bit of dynamicism and seperation from the other factions.
Current issues:
1) Energy cost penalty applies out of defence mode.
2) Penalty is not severe enough compared with the bonus given.
3) Defence mode is entered by default whenever you spawn a ship.
4) Defence mode is on by default every spawn.
5) Toggling the mode isn't clear cut.
Issues1, 2, 3 and 4will be fixed in the daily build that hits about 5 am.
Things I want tested:
1) Usability in combat. It's not designed to be used in combat, and I don't want to see it being used in combat except in perhaps last-ditch attempts.
2) Recharge time out of combat after battles.
Things I want feedback on:

2) Bonus/Penalty harshness.
