So... allwork can now tell green and red apart?

As requested by the community, here is the exhaustive all inclusive changelist of all balance updates made in the R10 Server update for PC.

Increased the base range of all Automatic and Semiautomatic weapons for more consistent close range combat.
Slightly increased the damage of Semiautomatic rifles over long range for more consistent damage output.

Increased the zoomed burst accuracy of LMGs and decreased LMG accuracy when moving to reduce LMG run and gun.
Decreased the base damage of the M60 and XM8 LMGs to bring them in line with the other LMG damage values.
Decreased the damage of the PKM over long range to balance it with other LMGs.
Increased the base damage of the Type88 LMG to balance it with other LMGs.

Slightly reduced the base damage of the M16 and G3 to balance the increased range.
Slightly increased the damage of the AEK971, F2000, AN94, and AUG over long range to balance them with other Assault Rifles.

Reduced the lethal blast range of the 40mm grenade and M2CG to highlight their role as a secondary weapon against infantry.
Slightly Reduced the max range of the 40mm shotgun to balance it with other shotguns.
Slightly increased the base damage of shotgun rounds and reduced their range to clarify ideal shotgun combat distance.

Reduced the base damage of the PP2000 to balance the increased range.

Increased the maximum number of Motion Sensors that can be carried from 2 to 3 and increased the speed which new sensors are acquired from ammo boxes.
Significantly increased the speed of the Tracer Dart projectile to make it more effective against airborne targets.
Increased the reload time of the Mortar Strike and reduced the damage it does to heavily armored vehicles.

Slightly decreased the benefit from accuracy specializations to balance the changes to range and accuracy tweaks.

MP – Added support for colour blind players

I'm Kit blind not color blind, friendly snipers show up as enemies.

In the RUSH mode, since this update was applied, have you guys noticed it harder to win ATTACKING, and much easier to win DEFENDING?

Only when the entire attacker team is retarded yea...

my knife still bounces off of people....

retarded shit. it pulls you in real quick and registers that you hit the knife button, but then you just bounce off the dude while he turns around and stabs you first try

FML.

and BC2 fail as usual

I have noticed that if either person is moving very fast the knife slices rather than stabs. They definitely need to fix that. I'm soooo glad I got my platinum knife and m60 before this patch. I have to look, but I think my dA! dogtag collection is complete.

thats cool because I have lots of yours
