Dylan Jobe, director of the high-flying online battle title Warhawk, recently revealed all details regarding the game's upcoming v1.2 patch on the official PlayStation Blog.
This is a truly encompassing patch, that both fixes current issues and adds new and exciting features and options. The full list of changes follows:
* Five new layouts
* Clan game server option
* Buddy slot reservations
* Integrated Warhawk Store
* Updated CTF capture/return behavior
* Internal stat padder protection
* Booster Pack status display at join game list
* DualShock 3 integration
* Separate SIXAXIS motion control on/off per mode (ground, hover, flight)
* Detailed Player Score display at end of game fixed
* Added new server type filters (player, ranked, dedicated, clan, Official Warhawk, etc)
* Added new server full/open filter
* Fall damage exploit fixed
* Dismount into walls exploit fixed
* Invisible Tank, Turret & Warhawk exploit fixed.
* Auto-kick of idle players.
* Add to Favorites button added to end game screen
* Increased VOIP volume when not using headset
There is a new layout for each current map, generally focused on smaller four to eight player skirmishes. The layouts are as follows:
* Eucadia: High City
* Island Outpost: Standoff
* The Badlands: South City
* Destroyed Capitol: Garden Showdown
* Archipelago: Close Corridors
Finally, Jobe confirmed the rumored Booster Pack (downloadable expansion). This is likely to launch near v1.2's release sometime in early to mid December.

About time, I can't tell you how annoying it was to try and join a game, only to er...not join it.

That is officially one of the most bad-a** updates of all time. Pretty much anything I could possibly want from an update is in this one. Of particular note is the ability to add a server to favorites after the round ends. The five new layouts are awesome too. I really wanted more close combat layouts and it looks like i'll get some.

Can't wait for this patchThis was some much needed bug fixing. I am glad they are finishing up on the patch. The patch will of course be free; however, I doubt that they will not charge for the "booster pack" later this year. I don't mind paying a fee for new maps, vehicles, etc... You already get free online.... you can't expect everything for free. After all, it is new content. They have to have some kind of return on their investment. See ya in the skies.....
