Over half of the league mode features are hidden from view, and the ones we can see are tasty? Roll on 040... I hunger for it.

 Damn, if uncensored parts are that tasty, treasures of untold value could lie under those black boxes. Arrr, I am eager to see 0.4.0 even more now!

I'm willing to bet one of them is to disable turrets. Kinda know this can be done already so it should be there.
Would really help in that it would make certain rules currently in use redundant. Less rules is always good. In the perfect world there are no rules except those already enforced by the game itself. Now, everyone know the perfect world does not exist but one can get pretty close at times =)

All in all. This is good news! A lot of potential in that one small censored screencapture!

/Merf - Looking forward to this!

One of the black ones is an option that removes heat for nova cats and displaces it to your nearest Mad Dog Prime.

Ugh. I really hope this is just a way of notifying players that the server has changed the default play rules and not tracking player stats on a central server. Whenever a game has persistent rank/ladder/etc It brings out the worst in people. Players start to focus on jacking their rank up as best they can instead of on teamwork.

I really doubt that it would default to that. It is perhaps possible however that they included a way to save more stats to file which could be extremely useful to a number of leagues. Of course such things would not be global (I seriously doubt the DEV team wanting to dedicate resources to that central server and at the same time risk locking the game to such a server, creating problems if the game wants to survive longer then the DEV team).

/Merf - Thinks its mostly just intended to inform the players of the modified rules in use

Persistent player stats would be one of those "Crysis base code" things that doesn't exist and can't be modded in, IIRC. No worries.
