    And we're back to the state when Trendy got rid of the "when is it in your time zone" link... Seems I got my hopes up too early.

    Joining a Red Alert from Sector Space is not grouping players with those that queue through the PvE queue UI.

    It’s recommended for now to only queue through the PvE UI for Red Alerts.

    I assume that means in the long run the sector space red alerts will be removed in favour of only using the queue for everything?​​

    -And the invisible quantum torps are not even mentioned..I cant see which targets my torp spreads are hitting only the sound is there..And I cant see the enemy quantums that are fired at me to evade, only indicator is the shield impact..
    -And the disappear and warp back into battle bug is also back..
    -And there is also no mention of a way to turn off the varnish look..

    -Are we gonna be seeing any engine optimisations in the near future? Some maps are really bad..

    You cannot evade torpedoes, hit/miss is rolled on ability activation. That means a torpedo fired at you is already determined to hit or miss depending on your and the opponents stats (doesn't apply to targetable torpedoes of course). If you visually outrun a torpedo vfx by evasive manoeuvres or similiar it will still hit you, even without the graphic reaching your ship.​​

    Sorry..My bad..Wrongly phrased..What I meant to say was basically know who the heck is hitting me with quantums.. :)

    -- It’s recommended for now to only queue through the PvE UI for Red Alerts.

    I'd like to point out that this recommendation puts you into into the level 50 players fight level 60 mobs version of those alerts. When you join through sectorspace at least you stay the same level as the enemies.

    And while we are on the topic of questionable recommendations. Who thought it was a good idea to force players to commit to one difficulty of a queue? I really would like to have the option back to queue for all difficulty modes of one particular queue.

    It's may be doable but not intuitive and something I hope the devs are still working on. Join a specific queue difficulty, then switch the difficulty, then hit the leave joined queues button, then select the new difficulty, and the text for the join selected queues should have a count including the previous and new difficulties.

    I know this is for yesterdays patch, but is there any word on if there is going to be a fix, or even an acknowledgement, that the Bonus Mark Weekend is not boosting Competitive marks?
