Misread. While you can still get them in normal lockboxes, mirrored guarantee that you'll get some kind of height/eye mod. Mirrored don't contain accessories, so the pool of selection is smaller.

I'm disappointed that you're making everyone pay for the standard upgrades. I've already stated why I think we vets should get a freebie for these things. If it's an issue with trying to make items one-off free, I've already stated a solution in that other thread, which I know you read. I must say though, I didn't expect most eyes to come at a price but I suppose it's to be expected. Paying for specials is fine. Glad I saved all my silver keys from the Christmas promo. Now is the time to cash them in.
At least height mods don't mangle armour like I thought it would, though I swear it's scaling. These things haven't really disseminated enough to see if hitboxes no longer match models. LD is confusing enough what with latency messing with where hitboxes are; we don't need to add model confusion to it (i. e, your sword hits the model but not the box because the hitbox is smaller than the model).
I'm eager to see what these optimization tweaks do. I have a godly machine that I use for top end gaming, and yet this game has always run poorly on it. Maybe now it'll run at a level appropriate for such a game. I could run high detail in LD maybe, le gasp!
Also, can we please get some kind of ping number for both ourselves and other players? That 4-bar gauge is fairly useless...
