The v1.6.2 patch for Fallen Earth is scheduled to deploy today, Wednesday, August 25th. The patch is set to bring several combat improvements, UI updates and other features into the game and can be downloaded by simply starting the FE client.
UI:
Updated the item examination tooltip formatting to ensure that entries line up properly.
Fixed the Auction House listing to show time remaining. Seller name will be available in a future update.
Fixed the Minor Respec so that you can't go negative in points if you are forced to spend a point in a skill. Also, undoing points spent on stats will undo the forced points in skills. Prevented the skill from going lower than its minimum value if forced points are already in the skill.
Added a tooltip to unspent AP and respec points to show the points being spent.
Switched the CTRL+Click item link to the mouse up to prevent interference with item stack splitting.
Fixed a weapon display bug for dual wielding in which the primary weapon display was affected by the firing of the secondary weapon.
Fixed a weapon display bug for mouse wheel weapon swapping so that it shows the new weapon immediately and fades out until it becomes active.
Read the full patch notes on the official site.

Fixed a weapon display bug for mouse wheel weapon swapping so that it shows the new weapon immediately and fades out until it becomes active.
Fixed dual wielding animations for both first- and third-person mode so the animations play while alternating and interrupt sooner, if needed. The weapon can only be fired after the alternate weapon has been fired and is halfway through its delay time. This is automated as long as both keys are pressed, even if pressed at the same time.
Fixed one-handed melee attack animations that were occasionally skipping frames.
Synchronized melee combat reaction animations, particles, and sounds. Also adjusted the timing.
Re-enabled blood spatters and sounds for melee combat that vary based on normal, glancing, and critical hits.
Fixed an issue with kill hits or targets moving toward players without triggering reaction effects.
Respec:
Fixed a minor respec issue that could grant the user more AP than were removed from attributes.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Why don't you just create a forum account? You don't have to own the game to sign up for the forums.
EDIT: Ignore that comment. Looks like they are only posting patch notes in the subscriber part of the forums now.
cool patch.
way to go.
still waiting for hosing .............
I mean housing ... sorry typo.
so, basically bug fixing
certainly needed but it is so boring
i get the impression there are like 2 devs left and this is all we can expect
hmmm
S4 = pie in the sky?
There's over 20 devs left, this is a great patch in fact, it improved the combat tremendously.
We got a new sector lately, 4 new levels, lots of changes to the mutations. We got blood sports system, achievements, all within last few months. How can anyone say this has no dev is beyond me.
REALITY CHECK
Screwed up AH Listing fees (not really helping the economy) and still insane imbalance in ranged/meele (ammo anyone?) made me cancel my sub again ...
I dont think thats entirely fair to say. Yes, they were deployed in the last few months, but most of these features (blood sports, achievements, last sector) were in the works long before the reorganisation.
Im waiting for the announcement of the first new feature. Something comparable and large as Bloodsports or a new Sector. Or housing that people keep asking for. Just some fixing and tiny combat/UI improvement isnt the same.
Its maybe still too early to tell how much the reorganisation slowed down FE development.
