Our policy of not releasing changelogs prior to release is unchanged.
 
MANY features have already been revealed directly in our news postings and forum discussions.  Some additional features have been hinted at or are lurking in the corners of screenshots released from our Weekly Playtest Impressions.

Here's a compilation of what was leaked so far(by no means a complete list):

 * Dual release on Crysis and Crysis Wars.
 * New game mode: Terrain Control
 * New maps(made or modified for Terrain control): Marshes, Kagoshima, Thunder rift, Mirage, Death Valley
 * New vehicles: Hephaestus, Ares, Morrigu
 * New turret types
 * Normal ACs wouldn't be overheating, UACs overheat slower
 * General weapon rebalance
 * Many bugfixes

More possible features(neither confirmed nor disproved by devs):

 * New game mode: Free for all.
 * New hover: Epona
 * New mech(?)
 * New battle armor types(?)

Thanks Siilk, short of something more official (I understand your policy) this is perfect and exactly what I wanted. I'm new to the forums, so digging up all of em would have taken me a while!

Except there is no one thread containing all of this information.

(until now that is)

So 4.0 is coming out on both Crysis and Warhead?  Will the two be able to play each other?  I am able to run Crysis all the way maxed out just fine, so is the warhead version just to give the option of the better optimized engine or am i eventually going to have to buy crysis warhead to keep playing?  Thanks!

Wars and Crysis will not be able to play together. So you will have to buy Warhead.
There comes a point where the talking must stop, and people have to do actual work.

Last I heard the Ares wasn't going to make it in. That was a while ago though.

Why do you think new BA types might make it in? I haven't seen anything to even suggest that.


Also, one more thing for that list is the ASF rebalance

Smartypants  :P... I know about the search, but reading through all the posts it finds, and knowing what to search for, would have taken me a lot of time.

They've delivered every patch as well, just not to everyone's satisfaction.

Well, I mean, I know the perfect way to balance ASF, but a very small minority of players wouldn't like that :D
