What could make Warhawk even better? How about adding your own, personal touch? According to several posts made by Dylan Jobe on the official Playstation forums, the upcoming 1.3 patch may go beyond just squashing some bugs and allow you to create custom artwork for use in the game!

Jobe’s not-so-subtle hints:

And YES, it includes some new game stuff…not just fixes. Here’s a hint…its not new free layouts like we are releasing with v1.2. It has to do with troops. What could it be? :-)

And we *are* adding some new customization…but that’s not what I was talking about.

But we are doing something really cool with the customizations for v1.3…here’s a hint.

“Do you know Photoshop?”

the photoshop comment didn’t have to do with troops…it had to do with aircraft.

So it looks like we’ve got at least two new features coming, one having to do with troops (classes, maybe?) and one having to do with “aircraft” (including the dropship?). Jobe’s mention of Photoshop implies the incorporatation of user-created content into the game in the form of custom Warhawk skins or, at the very least, custom decals.

One wonders whether or not there will be an approval process, because it probably won’t take long for the first “Flying Phallus” squadron to take to the skies.

Jobe also clarifies that, unlike the upcoming Omega Dawn expansion, 1.3 will remain free (as all “patches” should). You can catch the rest of the conversation here.
