20 second update..not to much.
Version 2.29 Patch 2 Changes
======================

Fixed a bug that would cause a field icon to stop flashing after a disco reconnect.

Radio buffer tabs are now limited to 5 separate tabs.

Auto-takeoff can now be reenabled using the autopilot key if you are stopped on the ground.

Clipboard button textures were not loading.


Achievement System Beta -

A lot of redesign, fixes, and expansion have gone into the achievement system.

Changed how reputation stars work to avoid conflicts with things like the .squelch command.

Added an option in the achievement menu to disable the display of stars.

Achievements now display a progress bar.

Earned achievements now show a time and date stamp of when they were earned.

The reputation value of an achievement is now displayed in the achievement description.  All values are currently set to 10 for the beta.  There is also a reputation page that tracks how much reputation in each category you've earned.

Added and replaced achievement categories.  Added a lot of new achievements and achievement icons.  Not all achievements have a unique name at this point in the beta.

Added an in-game achievement icon auto downloader.

Fixed all known bugs regarding the awarding of various achievements

Doesn't change the fact that this game's credibility took a major hit with XBOX-style "achievements"....

I didn't say "this game" -- and besides it's rather self evident. Achievements are a sad waste of HTC's efforts and lower the quality of the game ever-so-slightly simply by existing.

sorry "THIS GAME'S" and you still havent explained how HTC's cred took a hit. I disagree with your opinion about achievenment but like achievments I can choose to not participate in it, BUT I wont do that its slow at work right now
