"The mission sequence "Quelling the Insurgency" now has more text that reflects the game's current setting. And less dairy.
Character augmentations now correctly list the Optimal Turrent Range booster drawback as a penalty. Don't Do Drugs, Kids.
Overview Settings for Structures no longer have a blank label at the top."

Even in a official patch note.

Where oh where does the 'N' come from? I've noticed people say it as well... Do some countries use the N or is it easier for native speakers of EU to place the N in the pronunciation?

He is referring to the N in Turrent above, instead of the correct spelling of "Turret".

It's a common typo, but some people are obsessive/compulsive. Smile

Yes yes, it is common. I was just wondering as to why? the n key is far from the all top row word "t-u-r-r-e-t" so why do so many people implement the N? (Maybe I am obsessive.... slightly )

Iwas so focused on range because that is where I expected the 'N' to be. Didn't even think to look at the other word (even though it would have made sense to).

My theory is many people are used to typing the word "current" and muscle memory can be a fickle beast. Smile

*cough*

Didn't realize lactose intolerance had any bearing on missions.

The more you know..

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Less dairy will be appearing in the random loot drops perhaps?

You wouldn't want to have Gallente women apply the rouge themselves.

And now I want a chronicle about rouge drones going rogue. I think it would make for a nice horror/detective story.

Funny never really noticed it before - its always been spelt turret around here but people interchangeably pronounce it both ways without anyone really giving it a second thought, then again I live in Somerset (England) where pronunciation generally is pretty slack.

But then you also say 'spelt' instead of spelled, so there you go!
