I would say 50% more velocity and around 20% less heat is enough quirks to make ppcs work. Which is more or less what you can find on a BJ, Vindie, Marauder, and Awesome.

It's a shame because ppcs are one of the most iconic weapons of BT and also really fun to shoot.

>>143416517
They do work very well so as long as you can exploit their range advantage over LPLs and only minimal exposure time. More aiming required for fast mechs, less aiming and thus less vulnerability against big mechs.

I've argued, discussed and agreed with some of their forum critters before in that their standard velocities should be closer to their current best quirked ones, with quirky mechs pushing them even further. Speed is the primary problem with PPCs and their damage vs heat ratio is a distant secondary. 1500-1600 m/s for a standard PPC would make them appear a lot more on other mechs than just the magic four. Or magic three, because who ever sees Vindicators around?

That's just completely wrong. At the beginning of the Joseon Dynasty in 1394, the capital was moved to Seoul, also known as Hanyang and later as Hanseong (한성, 漢城, "Fortress city [on] the Han [River]"), where it remained until the fall of the dynasty.

I'm not nostalgic for it. I simply want an improved version of it because it was better than UI 2.X.

Hey, man, do you remember when UI 2.0 was gonna come out and remove the endless loading, downtime, enabled DECKELS, and make the game great, because a UI totally does all that, and the UI was the true bottleneck?

There's no reason not to use your old account if you remember what it is.

Steam connects to the servers in the same exact way that the regular launcher does.

There have been some changes in terms of mechs, maps, gamemodes, balance, ui, a tutorial, earnings, voip, euro and asia servers, etc.

Kay so whats the point of Gauss Vomit on Clans if the Gauss sucks? I know it offers little to no Heat what so ever for firing but good lord ever metamech build seems to require a Gauss.
>>
>>143455342

Gauss is a strong damage dealer, but the megaman buster charge makes it unwieldy.

IS really has no reason to take them, but clans still do.

>plays CW.
>doesn't shit even the basic reasons for why gun X still has a place in the game.
>>
>>143432839

It is, because the author never expected to write more and didn't want to bog things down going through the entire level structure.

Light novels >> anime in many cases as a result. Progressive is a good light novel series to read through first, as it's much more development and in-the-world time than the SAO anime.
>>
>>143440523

It is, because it basically shows off everything that MWO lost. And PGI would rather have you forget.
>>
>go invasion on the busiest planet available
>wait in queue for 15 minutes because the enemy faggots are no-shows until 30s before a ghost drop

>>
>>143456135
Yeah strong damage for a Charge, but most of the time you have to expose yourself for a bit before you can even get a shot off. This is why I went down to LBX or UACs cause I can just peak fire and fall back.
>>
>>143457496

Yep. Often done deliberately to see if they can get bored opponents to drop, thereby delaying the process of taking a world. Honestly, they should halve the time between ghost drops.
>>
>>143457803
They should cut it to half and not load you into the game at all if you get a ghost drop, just dump the dosh on you and requeue you. Just do anything to speed that shit up. The FW queue system is for a 10x bigger player count and it obviously doesn't fucking work the way it is now.
>>
>>143455342
>>143457776
Gauss doesn't suck. It never sucked. It's nowhere near as strong as it was before charge and the increased cooldown, but it's still very good.

The reason to use it on clan builds is obvious. Most clan energy weapons are very hot and clan dubs are weak even weaker than IS dubs, and the clan gauss is only 12 tons instead of the 15 it weighs for IS.

I think I maybe onto something with this.

>>143460797
You have four mechs, ideally 2-3 longrange heavies, and plenty of time to deal damage. You can't just throw them away super aggressively.

Assuming that your side isn't getting rolled by a strong 12man or because you have a couple afk guys you should have plenty of opportunity to get a thousand damage in just your first mech.

If your side is getting rolled you should tell your team to stop attacking regardless of the gamemode and literally play defense by your dropships.

If you are playing carefully and you're still not doing damage it's probably because you're not actually landing your shots. Stop rushing to shoot just because you can. Taking a quarter second longer to actually aim properly is always worth it when the alternative is missing damage.

Take a look at your statistics with your weapons. Notice what weapons you have poor aim with. Either practice those weapons or focus on the ones you're good at.

>>143461821
Of course, the problem could be you're using complete shit builds on shit mechs. Stop doing that.

Laser hunch, Laser jag, and Uac bear are all great damage dealers in general and great at midrange poking. As long as you don't get too close to the enemy or focused too hard you should have an easy time to rack up the damage.

I'm not too miffed about his actual attacks since he's the definition of a glass cannon but I feel like the Discord orb could be less powerful or have an actual cooldown so you can't just chain 50% damage from one enemy to the next as they get mown down.

Yeah, with discord on an enemy his attacks hit like a close range McCree Peacekeeper shot, except with no damage drop off over range. I disagree that the discord orb needs a cooldown, being able to apply it to whoever is the most dangerous at any time is one of Zenyattas only forms of self defense. I've solo killed so many dipshit flankers who think they won just because they caught me behind my team and it's arguably the most satisfying part of playing Zenyatta.

Oxide has stupid SRM rate of fire quirks. Just load the bastard down with a huge XL and a shitload of SRM4's.

That said, heroes like the Misery or Black Widow are good because of their hardpoints and can stay relevant regardless of quirks.

Compared to the current public release it jumps from Unreal Engine 4.7 to 4.10 which fundamentally alters the appearance of the environments especially where foliage and lighting is concerned, and replaces Coherent with Unreal Motion Graphics for the user interface, so the menus and HUD look different and have a significant performance boost as well. Much of the work is under the hood for optimizing rendering and network performance and server reliability and getting the game ready for steady Steam updates. Several new weapons getting added as well. Should be seeing the last three Gears of the initial twelve coming in soon also. A couple developmental maps were removed for the time being and the current rotation includes the following:

San Lopez - Desert map
Pioneer Outpost - Snow map
Port Oasis - Subtropic map
Tershaw Valley - Forest map
Hydro Station - Abandoned hydro facility map
Horizon - Zero gravity space map

Sort of shit power-level wise compared to just about every universe ever, but I like them. Unless I get all the other pilot benefits however like all the implants and regenerative surgery though I don't know considering that you're exposed to a lot of radiation, among other things.

It's almost a bit more "in what mecha universe would you want to be a pilot" sort of deal. Battlemechs are pretty dank in the fluff but I also really like Gen 5 ACs.

You mean the LBX10? It's shit and there's no going around it. Decent on certain 'Mechs that have stupidly high fire rate quirks like the CN9-D but you're still going to have to stare at your target at close range in your squishy XL 50-tonner whilst spreading the damage all over.

The AC10 does everything better and the AC10 isn't a very good weapon. Look at the tonnage of it, add up the ammo and then consider the damage you get out of it. Very steep cost as opposed to using a large laser, PPC or whatever.

They're almost identical except the clan one weighs a ton less and the IS one has way longer max range.

The bigger difference is what quirks a mech has and no clan mech gets decent ballistic quirks.

Another month, another mech pack announcement.

It damn well better be either the Lupus or the Nova Cat, because clan already has 2 options for the 65 tonner category, and the Linebacker is an underwhelming piece of shit.

They've already said it's going to be another heavy and another medium.

A lot of people are hedging their bets on the Failbacker, another 65 ton clan omni 'tardmobile that can only carry 17.5 tons worth of gear. Whoop-de-doo, it runs 97.2kmh (104,5kmh), but it's got worse hitboxes thanks to its retarded shape that's worse than the current nova.

Nova Cat on the other hand would be a 70 ton omni to share the slot with the Summoner, which would have between 33 and 39 tons of pod space available (depending amounts of locked heatsinks/ jumpjets on different variants). Sure, it's a bit hardpoint deprived for laser vomit, but it's got more than enough ballistic and missile options for heavier weapons.

Lupus on the other hand is an underdog. A 60-ton omni that, while having less available space than the Linebacker, is not hampered by poor hardpoint locations, poor design or an oversized engine. Pod mounted jump jets too, so you can decide just how many you really want. Torso mounted energy hardpoints on both sides, so it could pull off the hellbringers 4x ERLL sniper build no problem. It's got ECM, too.

Medium has two options: either the memetastically shitty black lanner for the goldcucks, or the huntsman.

Since they're doing one more heavy and medium, it remains to be seen which one they take. I'd love the huntsman for some omni-centurion shenanigans.

>Nova Cat
>Why did this ever get as fetishised as it is?

Digitigrade night gyr, man. Also it looks imposing as fuck, not to mention being absolutely phenomenal in Mechcommander Desperate Measures. But mostly I think it's because the original Night Gyr looked a bit silly with it's hawk beak torso, so the improved visual design of the Nova Cat cemented it's popularity.

not the MOST triggering but LRMs on everything, and shitty LRM + Machinegun maulers
>>
>>143602562

AC/20 Urbie is literally a stock build, so I don't shit on it that much.

No, my most triggering was a guy in a Pirate's Bane equipped with...TAG and ECM.

That was it. No actual weaponry.

>>143602562
I think the screenshot of the Atlas that had nothing but 2LL and an lrm15 or something takes the cake.

Is there any mech in the game that can reasonably bring more than 80 tubes of lurms, without doing something retarded like stripping off all armor or downgrading into a tiny nonfunctional engine?
>>
>>143608690
Don't be a faggot. Friends don't let friends boat LRM's.
>>
>>143608690
Probably not but Awesome-8R with 4x ALRM15's is probably the best LRM 'Mech in the game.

Don't forget your double tag.
>>
>>143608690
Mad Dog but you'll be hot as fuck and probably have nowhere near enough ammo
>>
>>143608690

For IS 'Mechs, 80 LRMs is already 40 tons before ammo. For Clans, you could do it - if there was a design with well spread hardpoints. We'd have to get something like the Bane in to do it though, which has a variant with LRM 120 stock (4M hardpoints each arm, carryin 8xLRM15 total).

The ghost heat would be insane, however. Even what you can do now (LRM 80) is pushing things heatwise with the Orion IIC-A, and even that maxes out at 75 tubes with Artemis.
>>
>>143609947

I should say do REASONABLY. You can stuff LRM 90 into a Mad Dog, but it isn't going to have much ammo and tends to cook firing all those launchers, plus it'll spread hits like shit.
>>
Hows this for a Phoenix Hawk Roc build?
http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=205&l=0ecfec8da8db5029af7f9387c4b30c7c0d513f31
XL255 (Vindi only runs up to 250), put the TAG in the arm with the LRMs and the 1ton MG ammo represents an MG+half ton of ammo. MLs go in the 2E arm.
>>
Gentlemen, BUILD ME A GOOD SPURDO!
>>

I think Huelander IIC would do LRM80 better than Oniichan.

I love it but brawling range is hard to get to in some situations.
>>
>>143611950

You'd have to be able to do a lot more than a heavy to make it worth using an assault for missile dumping. And the Highlander-IIC-B actually has less room for stuff, since it's arms have all of the actuators in it- not that it matters for where it's got missile hardpoints, really. And it's even less agile than an Onion IIC. You can do a missile boat on it, but it's hardpoints mean that LRM80 is pretty damn close in terms of secondary firepower to an Orion IIC, and for 15 extra tons.

I mean, you can pull shit like this if you wanted,complete with hoverjets but IMHO it's not really worth the extra tonnage.

Who here likes space ships? I get the feeling that was pretty much all of you. And who likes free stuff? I’m pretty sure that’s all of you again. Well friends, feast your eyes on Fractured Space: a game that was released from closed beta into Early Access, and made Free-to-Play this week! Fractured Space is a 5-v-5 space combat game where you pilot capital ships against your enemies in a multi-sector arena environment in hopes of catching the enemy base.

Next time you’re getting the appetite for some quick space combat mayhem, I recommend giving Fractured Space a try...you have nothing to lose but some space on your hard drive!

MWO actually doesn't have many that cause serious pain. Given, you may be the turkey in a proverbial turkey shoot getting things like Mechbays and it can hurt if you spend your C-bill spacebux the wrong way, but a F2P can be just as dangerous as a old gold whale who realmoneys his robot habit.

MWO is pay-to-avoid-grind, not pay-to-win. Just don't casually blow your first-25-game C-bill bonus without asking first. Use Smurfy to theorycraft, ask questions on /gerg/, get on Mumble and be new vs. being bad somewhere else, and develop a taste for bantz.

Omnis are mister potato heads.

You can replace arms, legs, heads, and sides as you see fit.
They also have a bunch of hardwired equipment you're not allowed to fuck with, like the engine, the crits assigned for FF and/or endo, and some will even have dubs, jets, or electronics hardwired.

All omnis currently in the game are clan robots, so have clan gear. If we ever get IS omnis, prepare your assholes for suck, because that's the day of 12 hardwired singles, IS XL engines, and legs full of FF armor crits.

With how retardedly CW is designed, how badly the maps are built and how poor the faction balance is...

Even if clans have a team of 12 competent players, against an equal team of 12 competent IS the clans will end up losing thanks to the prevalence of quirks.

Only boreal vault plays to the clans strengths, and even there that advantage is reliant on the IS side to not move into their own optimum range.

And you provide no solid counter argument but ad hominem.

Fact is, that the inner sphere 'mechs quirks provide them with a tangible edge that, along with all the small changes done to clan technology in the previous balance patches, makes these mechs much more forgiving while still having comparable damage output.

Dudebot here, dont forget to shitpost relentlessly about discord while I'm out or if the thread is on page 10.

Some points I found while looking at the other thread that may be of some use is that Vass tends to take the bait especially hard if you either question his authority or paint Norris in any positive light.

Meme forecasts are showing high likelyhoods of Overwatchposting, so if you ever reply to a post with it, indirectly reference Discord, either by highly cropped screenshots or blaming Harabec for doing some sort of administrative goof in the Discord channel, such as accidentally disabling text write access to the "kong" ACL list. You can be as creative as you want.

I'll be back on Monday night, so I appreciate all of you holding down the fort while I'm gone.

CW should be balanced around normal play balance. Which it isn't, and since normal play balance is already an utter shitfest of le epin clan nerfs, and shitty maps with too much wide open long range engagements to balance that out, CW is a complete mess.

Yeah but that's why don't go full lurm

Imagine if everyone in charlie and bravo lance had some lurms, like 1 lmr10 per dude and a couple of the heaviest assaults had 2, you'd have 100 tubes the whole team put together to rain shit upon anyone who isn't in proper cover, while at the same time the impacts of an unfavourable map or a hpg cellar fight or something wouldn't massively impact anyone's usefulness, because even with a lot of lurms spread throughout the team they're only a sidearm for every individual mech. Also the decentralized lrm battery will be able to attack from multiple angles at the same time making it difficult to be fully covered.

tldr everyone should pitch in a bit to bring a "ghost" lrm boat as a 13th mech.

No, the point he is making is that canonically Jenners don't have ANY torso twist, they're locked on their forward axis by their leg placement. They have torso twist in MWO because PGI fucked with their fundamental design and give them a separate lower torso with legs on that instead of the legs being attached to the singular center torso.

With how little it costs, and how decent it is (It's a Locust with fucking ECM, people straight up ignore it half of the time) I'd say it's an extremely solid buy at 50% off.
>>
>>143736925
Sorry bro I just think of it exploding instantly if it ever gets hit but that's been my experience, not everyone is an accomplished Locust pilot like dudebot so there's a lotta retards doing dumb shit.
>>
>>143737120
The regular Locusts are pretty great if you know how to pilot them, and the Pirate's Bane is way better than a regular Locust in terms of survivability (ECM means that you'll take even less fire that you have to evade, I've played a regular Locust right next to a Pirate's Bane and we fired at enemy mechs while standing still, they didn't even notice us for minutes straight at which point we relocated for a better firing angle), the trade being that it mounts less armament (1.5 tons go to ECM instead of mounting 2ML/SPL, which it doesn't have the extra hardpoints for anyways)
I mean if you hate Locusts don't buy it but if you don't like Catapults, Thunderbolts, Griffins, Hunchbacks or Blackjacks you shouldn't buy their heroes either (although solid choices like the Oxide are worth buying even if you don't like Jenners)

Here's my vision for Mechwarrior; Open world MMO. Think Planetside 2 in scale. There'd be servers each representing a different world (hopefully it'd get popular enough to have a unique world for each house.)
You'd start your character on one server and be locked to that server until you secured some form of transportation to another server (this could probably be hitching a mildly expensive ride on a dropship, or joining up with a Merc company that has their own dropship.)
Once you're on the world, there'd be a mild social aspect. You'd control a Mechwarrior for a decent amount of time (your player avatar) and you'd be able to converse with other players and just dick around in safe cities (or maybe even go infantry in a warzone.) There'd be places to get contracts and player bounties - if you just spent the better part of a week slodging away in your cheap beginner's Wasp to buy a nearly brand-new Centurion and some dickhead in his Warhammer blew your side torso off and left you with a huge repair bill, you could put a bounty on his head so that the guy stomping around in his Atlas has something to do for a bit of money.
Grinding would be decently significant, probably EVE levels? Not that I know how long and tedious grinding is in EVE, but getting an Atlas would probably be something like a year long affair for a freelancer or a couple months for a Merc company. Monetization would ideally be a subscription fee, I don't really like the idea of a cash shop. There should be no way to buy ANY advantage over other players, and I don't even know if I'd want to offer unique paintjob schemes for cash (maybe a paint system that is completely freeform with a handful of in-game currency stencils, and if you're not artistically talented but still want a flawless rendition of a popular canon unit you can buy the stencil for it for real cash.)

Would you play this game? I have more ideas on other aspects but this comment is getting too long.
>>
>>143738542
sounds like shit.
>>
>>143738610
What don't you like about it? Large scale battles, interactive universe, a real sense of progression in terms of mechs.
I feel like it'd be decently close to EVE in terms of concepts, and EVE is a massively successful game.

You do realize that mechs in-universe are massively expensive, right? If you don't have some form of professional backing, you're never even going to pilot a Harasser let alone a mech.
>>
>>143738542

You'd have to go full Mechwarrior RPG mode.

That means not just robots, but the whole shebang- infantry, tanks, etc. 'Mechs would be the most expensive option, and of course there'd actually be reasons for things like vehicles as a result.
>>
>>143738542
"mildly expensive"
its about 100,000 cbills a jump. each jump takes ~12 hours with around 72 hours of recharging between jumps.

Crossing the inner sphere costs around 4 million c-bills.

the VAST majority of mechwarriors are on merc corp or house military payrole because becoming a mech pilot requires alot of skill or money moving through a private academy or a house run affair.

Fusion engines are the singular most expensive part of a battlemech, for the cost of a single wasp i could field 5 times its tonnage in tanks (that if BT wasnt specifically ruled to buff mechs over tanks, would fuck mechs every time)

mech repairs are actually pretty cheap, especially for introtech stuff. losing a side torso on a Jenner only cost me about 80,000 cbills to repair.

bounties dont work in eve. theres lots of discussion on how broken that feature is.

theres very little tedious grinding in eve anyway, time for skills that you dont even need to be at the keyboard, or high risk/reward situations.

An atlas will run you about 20k a month in cbills on upkeep and will require 9 Mechtechs to maintain. (that all have to be paid)
>>
>>143739202
Yeah but people aren't going to play a game where you don't get to pilot a mech without selling your soul to a huge Merc company. I know I don't want to have to fondle someone's cock and balls just to earn a Blackjack. Make no mistake there'd be a ridiculous grind for it but obviously the amount of money you make from trivial contracts would be like twice as much as you'd make in universe. Gotta sacrifice a TINY bit of realism for the sake of fun, no? That being said there would be massive advantages to joining a merc unit, and there'd be house incentives for being a (good) merc unit like discounts on house specific robots.

>>143739326
I'd love to include vehicles as well as an option for starting players, just not sure how many people would want to get into a videogame about giant stompy robots where they have to drive a vehicle around for a week just to buy a cheap bug mech.

>>143740007
Maybe force players to pledge loyalty to a house military for their first mech, then? You read some lore, choose which house world you want to be born on, and then you serve a contract with that house before you can leave the military and join a Merc company (player-run, versus NPC-run)
>>
>>143738542
also what era would you even run this in?
how would you deal with player balance?

PS2 has large issues with zerg forces, and if its an FPS game ala PS2 then youll suffer from the issue that 10 AC/2 carriers could/would fuck anyone in a mech over distance.
>>
>>143740007
If BT rules were realistic the tanks would stand no chance. Mechs would hillhump and cornerwhore and expose nothing but their main gun arm for only a few seconds at a time. Conventional vehicles would find that they have nothing to shoot at.
>>
>>143740218
If you don't have the economy being harsh, then death has little meaning and there's no reason to have this complex system for tracking where you are and character skills and shit like that.
Personally? I'd just modify MWO faction play to be more interesting. You have mech bays specifically for faction play, these are not permanent mechs and you will lose them should they be destroyed in battle along with you losing all of them should you personally be pilot sniped.
Add in a more complex faction play system involving multiple missions going on on maps at a time and reasons for battles to end without one side being completely wiped and you've got yourself something pretty nifty. MWO can be made into something that's good enough to get that permanent consequences and actual meaning going, it just takes a bit more effort than it has right now.

a 20 ton mech that goes 86km/h with 1x Small laser (LA) 1x Medium Laser (RA) 1x LRM5 (RT)

A grand total of 96 points of armour.

Cost? 1,248,700 C-bills

Comparatively in tanks the same cost can get you a hovertank that moves at 130km/h with an AC/20.

>>143740394
Try playing with TacOps vehicle rules.
(vehicles would just ridgehump too, also vehicles can mount shitloads more armour than mechs, a 30 ton tank can mount over 80 points of armour, 2 SRM6 and 1SRM2 and move at 140kph.. all for only 880,000 c-bills)
>>
>>143740352
Probably around 3025, which I assume is the hot era that everyone loves. I'm not sure if you can really balance the clan invasion properly.
As for zerging and AC/2 carriers, I'm not really sure how you can change the core gameplay to prevent that. It may be an incredibly annoying tactic to face off against, but is it not a valid one? Surely there'd be counters like fast lights flanking them and raiding their lines, things with even similar or greater range (ER PPCs, other AC/2s, Gauss rifles) and I assume artillery or fighters would be good against them.

>>143740469
I've said I want the economy to be harsh enough to make losing a mech a big deal, but not so harsh that you can never replace that mech. Comparing the price of a Centurion (3.5 mil) to an Atlas (9.5 mil), maybe a Centurion would set you back closer to 4 weeks.. A heavy mech could set you back months, along with anything that has an XL (which'd be a costly proposition you'd probably only see in Merc units since their vulnerability means you'd need good tactics to keep them alive)
>>
>>143740858
3025 is well before clan invasion, the clan invasion didnt begin to 3046ish (periphery was invaded first, major houses dont really give 2 fucks about periphery nations)

The Third succession war had just come to a close in 3025.
>>
>>143741107
That's why I've chosen it, 3025 means you have access to a lot of IS mechs and I believe it means you have advanced IS tech like DHS available, as expensive as they are. In addition it gives you at least 21 years before the clans even become a concern, and if you advanced the servers anywhere close to real-time the game would be dead long before you have to worry about clans.
>>
>>143741196

The only reason why the game would be dead is you didn't offer $500 Gold skinned Madcats.
>>
>>143741196
>DHS
>i think
Theres a fucking wiki m8.

The houses had prototype DHS in 3022 but only the cappies had them in production till 3030 and only in the blackjack.

3025 is old as shit and boring as fuck you dont get "alot of fun tech" why not 3147? its the current game year and theres lots of tech that bring IS mechs in line with clan mechs, lots of mix tech floating around to have fun with.
>>
>>143741324
A quick scan of Sarna gives me the date of 3049 for periphery and 3050 for wave 1. Assuming 3049 punches anywhere near house territory and players start calling for clans, that's 24 years. That's TWICE the lifespan of World of Warcraft.
>>143741372
How's the number of actual mechs for 3147? One of my main assumptions is that a large percentage of the core Battletech fanbase (old men) doesn't actually care for Dark Age stuff and I'd like to tap into a secure, guaranteed audience as much as marketing to the wider audience that somehow doesn't like mecha at all. There's a reason we don't have any Battletech/Mechwarrior games set that far into the future.

you mean the reason isnt because mechwariror has been dead longer than darkage has been out?

Or you mean how none of the battletech house books, era reports and TRO's simply "dont exist" for 3145?

3147 is probably the best time to be a merc, factions are more splintered and separated, there are alot more conflicts happening on individual planets rather than lumbering house vs house combat.

i dont know where youre getting your "core fanbase doesnt like it" from, 3145 is whats played in demo games. and the only real exception is tournament games that are played at Rules Level 1 to keep things flowing and simple (which is a mishmash of 3000-3040)

>>
>>143741737
Fair enough, but HBS's Battletech game is all the proof I need that people are willing to play a game set in 3025. I'd set the game in the clan invasion era if I thought there was any easy way to balance clan mechs without gimping the fuck out of them or buffing the fuck out of IS mechs, a la PGI. I just don't think the C-bill price tag alone would be enough, people would still be salty that the 50 tonner that cost three to four times as much as theirs just reamed their asshole and complain that it's imbalanced as fuck that they need 12 mil Cbills worth of IS mechs to counter 12 mil Cbills worth of clan mech.

>>143741954
I mean if there's a serious demand for 3145 it's not like I'm entirely against it, I've just gotten the impression from MW:O and HBS that the older years are more popular.

I don't think it is fair to compare them. I really liked Hawken, and I was exceptionally good at it as well. They really are not the same type of game at all, though.

Hawken was more of an arena shooter. The dev studio is a lot like the pig though, in that they do not know what made their game fun and do not know how to create more fun.
>>
>>143742264
well sorry to tell you but that's just how it is, the game is an incredibly unoptimized piece of shit, just a sudden change of direction will drop your frame rate by half for no apparent reason because PGI did not bother to read the cry engine manual

shadows and particles are the main culprit, I'd recommend turning both of them to low

It happens to me too. I have to restart the game ever 4-5 matches.

Economic options mean that someone who blows their budget can get into something bigger than whatever the newbie-bot happens to be for their faction. Plus, there's bound to be some contracts where a vehicle can do the job, meaning more profit for not lugging a hideously expensive robot around.

Wrecking that outpost being something you can do with that internal-combustion cheapo Scorpion tank that's far cheaper to transport and maintain vs. your uberexpensive Archer is a consideration worth considering in a game with an economy. And heck, I'd make 'Mechs a PC-only option and leave the AI (or players looking for a change) to tanks. Armor (and infantry) are a thousand times more common in the BT universe than a 'Mech is, with dozens of them on any given world vs. even a single lance of 'Mechs, if that. Tanks are quite dangerous enough as AI opponents anyway.

No killing players, though. Ride go boom? Ejected. Injured (hello, medical bills). Not dead-dead.

Then how do you manage to make it so someone has a reason to eject early? After all, why would you abandon this massive time and virtual money sink until you have no other choice? There has to be the fear of losing something far more than just your mech, otherwise every fight will be to the death and you lose fun features like salvage.
>>
>>143741196

Honestly, MWO had it right before they bumped the timeline up to the Clan Invasion.

>>
>>143742786

There's reasons to GTFO early- including repair bills, most notably.

If you get boxed in and are gonna get rekt, punching out (or even surrendering) and ransoming back your ride > getting your robot BTFO and a big-ass medical bill AND having to ransom what's left of it back.

You wanna fight to the bitterest of bills, that's your own stupid fault if your vehicle writes a check the pilot can't cash. But even EVE has a "death" system that gives you clones instead.

Well sure, it should probably be more abstracted than just 'start over entirely'. Maybe another of your squaddies takes over, something like that.

>>143742646
AI tanks doesn't sound that bad, PC-only mechs could easily be balanced out by house v house warfare which would incentivize players to face off against eachother in their expensive mechs.
>>143742786
This guy has a point though, there needs to be a way to cripple a mech without coring it so you can salvage it and use it as your own (or sell it for more money, a cored mech could still be salvaged to some degree but it'd be mostly a small sum for scrap metal and whatever weapons/actuators weren't destroyed)
Player death is something that'll probably take a lot of thought, there's no real in universe cloning since we're not clans with test tube babies but I don't want a player who is well-established in his merc unit to just permanently die and lose ALL of his assets. Maybe a certain threshold of damage (lost one side torso and a leg, lost all working armament, etc) would force an auto eject. I'd like you to be able to headcap mechs as well but would have to see how that actually plays out and it's hard to say "lol he magically ejected from his headcapped mech before the cockpit was destroyed"

Why? 15, 15, 15, 15 is the common LRM60 Mad Dog build with less spread. His build isn't even neatly symmetrical.

>>143745365

Because retards.

This is exactly the type of LRMshitter that believes because he can do 500+ damage over the course of a long match, that his sprinkler is viable weapon.

This is the type of person who, when he gets 1 or 2 kills off mechs that were cored out by other players with actual builds, uses it to justify his stupidity.
>>
>>143745365

He probably thinks LRM 5's don't give ghost heat (which was once true) and having multiple launcher types means he can hold down one fire button and after the first salvo, they'll mostly fire at big enough intervals to avoid ghost heat.

Literally a one-button steering wheel underhive player.
>>
>tfw haruko is fucking some normie chad as we speak
>>
I have only seen one semi-viable LRM use, which is 4xALRM15 chain fired within 300-500m, with LOS on a target.

If you can somehow park right there while staring at someone, ALRM15 is like 90% CT hits.

This stormcrow was running around raping people (somehow) with this shit the other night. I kept seeing him in games and he kept winding up with 4-5 kills and 700 damage, just by focusing on people and keeping LOS.

Fucker was really annoying because he was just tearing apart pubbies, who simply do not know how to aim through LRM screen shake, of which he could provide indefinitely until they were dead.

The worst part about liking LRMs is the difference between shitters and competent players isn't generally obvious to anyone save the pilot.

Are you scatterblasting things at random, or actually clubbing them to death (solo kills, KMDD?). I tend to feel like I was lazy on games that end with 10+ assists and 500 damage and zero KMDDs. On the other hand, pic related is "OK, did it right."

1,300 damage with lrms is equivalent to 400 damage with lasers
>>
>>143746360

Funny you should mention that, but 4xALRM15 is what I like on my OnionIIC. You've got to alternate between chucking all 60 at once at targets you don't expect more than one good shot per lock and chaining launches to keep your heat down against others or when you're redlining.
>>
>>143746710

So....you solo killed three people with 400 points of laser damage? Six KMDDs? Maybe if it was all from behind? No, I don't think so.

Good rule of thumb is to treat missile damage as 66% or so of the usual direct-fire weapon damage, so 1300 with LRMs is closer to 800 damage, not 400. Not 33% of direct damage. Even missiles aren't that shitty unless your user is a no-Artemis LRM 20 boater trying to hail mary his shots from 800+ meters away.

>They can still twist at their hips which is why their front firing arcs are the same as anyone else.

No that's simply not true. All weapons even those located on the legs have the same 3 hex arc. Weapons mounted on mechs are assumed to have their own limited movement and arc, not due to the mech itself.

>>143735892
Sarna doesn't list all optional rules as they apply to mechs unless their design documents have been released with them attached. Only the newest ones do so AFAIK.

That's why you'll see a QKD-8P as listed with hyperextending actuators, even if every Quickdraw is supposed to have them.

This issue came up because plenty of ancient designs followed an older rounding rule for ferro fibrous armor and thus would be illegal under the newer rounding rule.

When the entire enemy team can absolutely NOT be bothered to fire at me in my very obvious hidey holes close to them

Build seems way too toasty but should melt faces on cold maps.

The reason the KD1 and KD5 are at the bottom isn't due to the loadouts, it's that the accel/twist/turn rate quirks that they don't have actually matter very significantly.

It affects everything from peeking to spreading damage to hitting lights.

Now obviously they matter a lot less if you're sitting at 700m being a pro sniper with some build like >>143753835 but a kd3 can still pro snipe better.

T3 shitter, thanks much. AND you got 6 KMDDs in the same game with your 400 damage? I know math is hard, but you'd think that even someone capable of 4Chan would figure out that you don't kill or mostly-kill half of a team with 400 damage. Or here. By your standards this would be an under 300-damage game. With four solo kills. Jut five KMDDs this time, eh?

Two were Lords, one was the guy who topped one of the Kodiak leaderboards during the challenge. I know, the idea that someone might actually gitgud with a third-grade weapon chafes your willy, but yeah. It's not as inefficient as you make it out to be.

What's the next excuse, lolsoloqueue?

I don't think so.

>>143771217

Yeah no shit when you're spreading 300 damage across one mech instead of just drilling through the all the CT armor and structure in 100, of course you'll get the KMDD.

Dumb T3 shitter I swear.

The russki models are recast versions of 3D prints of MWO's low poly models. You lose some surface details (such as fine paneling) due to these being 5-7 centimeters tall, but they're alright.

So, lemme guess. I should maybe go brawl in a quirkless Clan 'Mech with SRMs that falls apart when someone sneezes on it's giant side torso and loses most of it's firepower, while knuckle-dragging most of it's other hardpoints? If it was a Timber Wolf or Ebin, I'd mount lasers and dakka like any sane person would, but Onions don't have that option.

Also, only one kill for over a thousand damage? Tell me you got a few KMDDs at least or that's shotgunning it like nobody's business. Comparable game to yours, same map here and a good example of the difference between actually beating something to death with missiles vs. just winging them repeatedly. Despite the damage numbers, not a great game.

I ain't even mad.

>>143771860

KMDD + solo kills up there, actually. Four of them. KMDD #5 was a kill-secured by a locustbro with the usual lasers.

And to quote >>143772678 , that's how I prefer to use LRMs. Get line of sight, get in close, shit 60 damage on target and add in a few lasers. Do that and you're putting almost all your damage across the torso vs. scattering it over everything.

>>143773109

>implying I'd waste an assault slot on fucking lurmboating

Now that DOES make me mad. Fucking Spirit Bears with no Artemis and hueglaunchers that waste half their missiles on the ground and may as well be using a garden hose on their targets with the rest. Sprerging 54kph Atlases, too. On bad games, that's the last thing I end up spectating, virgin of armor and still carrying six tons of ammo when they end up exploding because they waddled up in the back and enjoyed the view while "I'm helping!".

I am intimately familiar with just how shitty LRM accuracy is outside 400m and if all you do is piggyback locks for indirect fire. Those hosers manage to be bad at an already bad weapon twice more over.

That's a good point, we have Battle Dildo, Attack Mattress, DIRESTAR etc etc. That's my point though, most generals just use in-jokes and memes and whoever named ours completely dropped the ball and ignored the vast and rich history of Kong memes in favor of ego stroking our players.

Oh and it was Haruko. As expected.
