Well, personally, I am relieved that the pinging issues are related to ownship only: you will hear the ping when it is preenabled, but no one else will.
These sorts of things are inherently different than the Sound vs. Speed issue from a year ago. In that case, a simple edit to the database was enough.
However, these issues are in the code itself, and believe me, Hutch has put a huge amount of time into it already from where it was.
In my mind, with LWAMI 3.01 out now, all of the biggest issues with DW are at least stable, and the game is at a great place. With the major bugs suppressed and features all implimented, the process of expanding the game can begin in earnest.
