Any dates or times you could give on when we get to play again?

[RonaldM]

We have finalized the development of patch 0.7.0 which will be deployed for testing by players in two waves starting this upcoming Monday. We will be giving a break for new players and allowing them a one week head start in order to get acquainted to the game in order to minimize the frag fest by players with previous playing experience.

So to recap, starting on Monday the 18th at 11am UK time, new players will be able to login and play.
A week after, starting next Monday the 25th, all previous players will be able to login with their original accounts (they will keep their previous XP and inventory) and the session will continue on a 24 hour 7 day basis at this point.

This is what I have found on the GRO Launcher screen. Just can't wait start again and see the new improvements.

What problem with getting shot while in cover ??? if you have body parts sticking out , then I shoot body parts. simple as that. it means that you got shot by "sticking out body-parts" , not cause you thought you were in complete cover

You mean the standing bug i guess? I hope the fixed it, because that bug can be frustrating.
