Sometimes I wonder how bad my team is...
>new Cataphract variant
>It's got the exact same loadout as the -1X, only now with MASC
Hmm... Gauss, two PPCs, three medium lasers with MASC? The corner peeking hero? Really risky since you need XL engine for that sort of getup, but with MASC you can avoid most of the incoming fire... until someone instantly cores your gauss side torso and you get to watch it blow you up that is.
Other than that there's always 3x LPL 2x ML with a fuckhuge engine for MASC abuse and loadsaheatsinks.
>>156904223
Gauss+XL always makes me nervous. I would prefer to avoid it if I can.
>>156904223
Problem with that is you want the ppcs in the sides because they're high mounted. If you stick a ppc and an xl you don't have space for the gauss so you have to put it in an arm.

In the mean time I'm trying to successfully join a server, I keep getting stuck on connecting.
>>156942676
>>156942551
Alright after a little fussing I got it going again, the problem stems from qtracker service being shitters.
You'll need to use connect by IP and type the IP in.
Looks boring.
>>156905026
Makes me nervous too, but I run the wankhammer with dual gauss and 6 medium lasers and it performs rather admirably.
I'll probably TRY the dual ppc + gauss + MASC cataphract, and it'll probably do rather well when it doesn't get focus fired by competent opponents, but it'll crumple and wilt when a super jenner comes close.
>>156905083
Yeah, you either have to go one-sided as fuck (which is kinda okay considering the gauss rifle will explode the instant your armour is stripped away), or you put one in the arm and one in the other side torso, then have to expose more of yourself for that extra hill humping height.
>>156944796
Well, yeah, it's a laser vomit stalker with ECM.
You load up three large pulse lasers and three medium lasers and have fun with that.
>>156944796
the stalker looks so fucking autistic.

how can pig fuck this shit up further? do they just look for ways to fuck things up and make it even funnier that people still put money into this shit?

>>156952796
Would it be okay if it had -50% PPC heat and +50% PPC cooldown, so its like it had 4 PPCs instead of 2?
>>156953303
No, that would cause Paul's blood pressure to spike.
>>156953384
who?
>>156953303
50% cooldown is redundant. You don't do strafing runs with PPC's.
50% heat generation off clan ERPPCs would be fucking fantastic (pinpoint fire and forget clan pulse lasers? yesplz) even if the lack of jumpjets would make this mech really rough to utilize it.
But, considering it's a clan vehicle, PGI will most likely only give it marginal set of 8 quirks like velocity and missile cooldown and be done with it.
also the energy hardpoint locations for the side torsos look to be in the dark crevice just below the cockpit, making this things dead on arrival status cemented in stone.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTL43vs5cLQ
Why did they cancel this game in favor of the new one we have now?
>>156953903
So it could run on potato rigs
And PGI lost the cryengine manual
>>156953903
>days of slow mechs and no dubs when heat management was actually a thing
I miss it
>>156953712
You can't do strafing runs only if you're slow, which the Linebacker is not. But that's not how it would work best; it would work as a line fire support mech. Not the kind of ECM sniper that tries to be alone to avoid attention, but a mech that sits just behind the front line of the death ball and can just keep firing non stop at enemies who don't have the time to react.
Basically a supercharged PPC Adder, exactly the same thing played exactly the same way except with the two superqwerks I suggested.

Stormcrow would do it better.
>>156957161
wow amazing
>>156957161
It does everything better.
>>156954026
Even with 50% heat gen, you'd only be able to fire those PPC's like... 5-6 times before you have to take a long break to cool down with those 4 extra heatsinks you can afford on the lamefaggot.
Unless your targets are dumb enough to stay at long range, you'll get rushed down and crushed.
It's a clan vehicle after all, it'll most likely not get the sort of quirks to afford it actual agility.

Firing line shootouts happen all the time in public queues. The amount of time spent in cover already spreads out that cooling period. Less heat faster recharge means more shooting when it counts, that's it.

Sader the self-entitled nigger made a shitty pornographic audio story about the obese asian Paul.
Not only was it bad, but he actually posted it on the official forums. As a response, PGI banned him from the forums and ingame as per their code on conduct nonsense.
A week or so later, the nigger makes a "an apology post, but not really" on reddit where he mostly shifts the blame towards PGI while trying to pass his own stupidity as "i was juz kritisizin' dem PGI's."
So really, standard nigger stuff.

Uhh, nuh-uh.
>clan hunchbacks, novas and stormcrows absurd firepower equivalent of a heavy
The nova with 12 small pulse lasers is ridiculously brutal at close range, and the stormcrow with streaks or short range missiles is no slouch either.
The hunchback being able to laser vomit the same as a timber wolf or an ebon jaguar is just PGI being fucking retarded and giving them too many hardpoints. Nobody would complain about hunchies if they had 2 energy in the side torsos and 1 energy in each arm.
>kodiaks bursting into treats
the non-KDK-3 ones burst easily because you can count on the laser vomit they bring to be unsustainable. The ballistic burst is so long as you don't get unlucky jams, and your cockpit shakes all over the place while you're trying to return fire.
>nobody complains about maulers being able to melt people almost as fast
That's the operative word. Almost. Sure, 5 AC/5's or 4 UAC/5's is painful as fuck, maulers sacrifice a lot of mobility to achieve that firepower.
In all honesty the KDK3 wouldn't be such a problem if the second set of ballistic were placed below the initial ones, or if PGI hadn't gone full retard and given it the ability to mount 4 ballistics. Just 1 in each side torso and some more lasers in the arms would still have enabled it to be a really good hill humper sniper or brawler with dual UAC/10's/ 20's.
>>156988764
>maulers sacrifice a lot of mobility to achieve that firepower.
Makes my Atlas seem fast DESU
>>156988764
They removed most of the quirks and left only a small amount of structure.
>The hunchback being able to laser vomit the same as a timber wolf or an ebon jaguar is just PGI being fucking retarded and giving them too many hardpoints.
The hardpoints should be irrelevant when you're comparing a medium to considerably heavier heavies. Piggy's problem is various game mechanics like how heatsinks work making heavies and assaults massively undergunned compared to what they should be. Weapon cooldowns are way too fast compared to heat dissapation rates. On top of that it's the dual uac10 hunchback that does the big damage.
Consider as an example that a huelander with capped xl engine, quad erppcs and full heatsinks has 30 dubs, which means it should be able to constantly fire it's weapons for an infinite length of time standing still on a heat neutral map. Even with erpccs having less heat than they should and on a cold as fuck map it's nowhere even close. Assault mechs shooting unlimited quad erppcs nonstop sounds like a pretty fucking different game than what we have now.
>The ballistic burst is so long as you don't get unlucky jams, and your cockpit shakes all over the place while you're trying to return fire.
So you just conveniently ignored the "when they aren't shooting at you 1on1" part. It's so easy to hit components on the huge upper torso.
>In all honesty the KDK3 wouldn't be such a problem if the second set of ballistic were placed below the initial ones, or if PGI hadn't gone full retard and given it the ability to mount 4 ballistics. Just 1 in each side torso and some more lasers in the arms would still have enabled it to be a really good hill humper sniper or brawler with dual UAC/10's/ 20's.
If it didn't have 4 ballistics, it would be just an another shitass clan assault that can run maybe 1 or 2 builds and can't play around with it's loadout at all.

>>157040802
Four options:
Laser vomit, UAC10 dakka, ERPPC gauss snipe or SRM brawl.
Timbers only advantage these days is assault level firepower on a platform that runs forward at medium mech speed.

>10/10 map design
>>157066401
The new Frozen City is actually pretty good, as long as it's not domination or conquest. Those modes totally fuck everything up by putting an objective into the most lethal area on the map.
If it's just skirmish or assault there's going to be combat at all ranges, because it's fairly easy to cross over to the other side through the edges and there's no obvious complete superiority position where you can set up a firing line that can overwatch the entire continent. If you poke your head out on memelands or try to cross the massive coverless deathzones on alpine piss, everyone will immediedly zero in your dark silhouette on white snow and bukkake you with alpha strikes. The two sides are set up far enough from eachother that even the longest ranged weapons can't hit across the valley for full damage, but can still do some damage. There's a lot of LOS blockers and cover that protects against lurms on frozen city so crossing over isn't that hard, and the way the buildings and cover are set up internally in the two highgrounds allow both medium range and brawling. As an added bonus it's one of those maps that doesn't punish low mounts nearly as bad as a lot of the other maps, which I like because some robots have less of a bullshit meta advantage on it. Also there's no random visual clutter, overcomplicated geometry, random assault-waist-high shit to get stuck on and invisible walls, and the lighting conditions are always good which is great.
At first I hated the fuck out of the map because it felt like polar memelands 2 electric boogaloo, but when people figured out how to play it, it became one of the best ones in the game (discounting the gamemodes that completely break it). Somehow PGI managed to make a map so good it had to be on accident, it's playable with anything from spls and srm bombing to extreme range sniping.
>>157067832
It has the same problem as a bunch of the other maps where everyone just winds up walking around in a big circle avoiding the shit area in the center of the map.
Polar highlands is great unless the enemy is using lurms
>>157070012
Even terra therma is ok if you just avoid the stupid shitstorm in the middle and fight anywhere else on the map.
>>157070012
The nascaring doesn't work the same way on it as on other maps. It's hard to explain, but it's much harder to catch the end of the other team in a bad spot and if the other team has just crossed over you can't just run after them risk-free, because then they'll actually be at the only positions that make it dangerous for you to cross to the other side through the edges. That's what I'm talking about when I said they can't have made the map that good on purpose, PGI isn't smart enough to set it up so well. The shape of the cover on the edges of the high ground and the central moshpit are different from everything else too.
And Polar isn't good in any circumstances, even without lurms there are just so many spots that put you into the firing cone of the entire enemy team without any way to block LOS, and the whole map is just high mounted mechs abusing the hell out of their advantage and fucking asses all day.

Sounds like a personal problem
>>157072049
Polar is great. The open map really brings out actual tactics instead of just shoving everything at a chokepoint.
It's let's lights do their thing, there's cover and open areas everywhere so you can pick and choose where to fight, and it supports both long and short range gameplay.

I agree all the different routes you can take through the trenches are great because unlike canyons you can charge over them at any time
So question about Clan ERPPCs. Do they deal 10 pinpoint damage plus splash? Or do they splash 10 damage all over the components they damage?
I can't figure it out because I swear they used to be 15 damage. And the training mode targets don't seem to take splash into consideration on their damage.
>>157081375
It's 10 pinpoint and shitty splash on the adjacent components, welcome to why clan ppcs are trash outside gauss+ppc in MWO.

>>157086039
Even a Panther with 4x MPL or 2x LPL can fight a Jenner IIC and come out on top.
>>157083186
I bought into it just because I like the devs. Right now the game is playable but it's rough. It's still very clearly in alpha and they say that. Don't expect it to be like a Steam game's early access alpha where there's an awful lot of content. Right now the game has the Gears in it and weapons and a couple maps. That's about it. It's fun to slide around on a map blowing people up for a little bit but the lack of content is something that'll keep you from playing it for a long time. If you're willing to throw money at the devs sure, otherwise wait till they've got more content to play with.
>>157086565
nah fuck the panther that fucking thing is to damn slow
>>157083186
Most people here bought it at some level because they like robots and talked to the developers who know what they're talking about and aren't cutting any corners. Eventually it will be cool.

Then why do people use them senpai
Oh, because it lets them fire faster
Really activates my thought process
>>157124510
>Oh, because it lets them fire faster
You can fire just as fast without a macro. Also, chainfire isn't the most effective way to fire.
People use them because they think they will make them better, but the reality is positioning and aiming make you better, not staggered fire. With mechs like the 5AC5 Mauler or 2UAC10/2UAC5 Kodiak you are alphaing with them, not chainfiring. With the 4UAC10 KDK you fire in pairs. Macros don't do anything in this game.

>>157128010
Improvements to assault and heavy jump jets would be appreciated.
hi im new player shitter, is this game alive at all
>>157128010
JJs should work equally regardless of mech weight if you have the same number of jets, that's why the fucking JJs themselves have different weights. If they want to prevent poptarting all they would have to do is to make the crosshair shake even after you let go of the button. The Exememe should be able to make it up on HPG walls with it's 4 jjs, for example.
>>157133889
It's undead.
>>157133889
That is not dead which can eternal lie, and with strange aeons even death may die.
>>157134542
Not just when using jets but when falling down from any significant height. When a mech enters a hard landing state the aim should be thrown off as well.
That's all it would take to bring back strong JJs. The only mechs that would lose from this are the ones that are built around having huge numbers of JJ slots, unless you really fancy flying in a stompy robot game.

You want to start with Inner Sphere mechs because they are about 10 times cheaper to purchase. For mediums, your top choices are Enforcer, Hunchback and Crab. That's not to say they are the only good mediums, just that they have many good variants and are cheap to buy. More niche mechs with one or two good variants are the Blackjack (1X), Shadowhawk (2D2), Griffin (2N) and Wolverine (6K), but all of them require expensive XL engines to run properly.
Stay away from everything else.
>>157211391

This isn't even taking in consideration weapon costs, which are literally twice as much on the Clan side. The difference is especially massive when you DON'T end up liking the mech you buy, which you can't possibly predict as a new player. Not only that, but IS mechs become cheaper the more of them you own, since you can share the engine which in some cases costs more than the mech itself.
tl;dr you are very wrong
>>157214905
Then there's of course the smaller things such as selling standard engines you will never need and if you really hate yourself you can always grind unwanted variants using no upgrades at all, further saving money.
>>157215054
>>157214905
You can also sell off all the omnipods on a clan mech except one set, and for most omnimechs you can sell off all but one variant making all your money back and never worry about quirk changes meaning the variant you kept is now subpar to the other.
>>157215160
Sell value is exactly the same on both sides anon.
>>157215307
Missing the point here.
You will only ever under any circumstances need one Timber Wolf. The other two you have to buy can be sold off with no loss to you whatsoever.
That is not true with battlemechs, especially inner sphere battlemechs, due to their ever fluctuating quirks. You can do it with them, but in 3 months you have a decent chance of having to rebuy one you sold off, or one you never even bought, because Paul got killed by the variant you kept.
The difference in price is not that big ultimately, and there is no real difference when it's your first chassis. The extra 10+ mil you pay to get 3 TBRs over 3 BLs buys you resilience to boot.
>>157214905
And then you decide you want to drop into Community Warfare because you hate yourself or want to grind mechbays and realize you're going to need other engines if you want to run these mechs you own...
>>157215648
>And then you decide you want to drop into Community Warfare
>>157215307
Which means the only price you pay is the price of the first mech and its upgrades, right?
Black Knight: 14,496,302
>>157215768

Even if medium battemechs(!) were the be-all-end-all for a beginner, clan hunchie IIC/IIC-A would be the best option anyways. Easily the best medium in the game right now and meta resistant on top of that.

Okay, so if you want to brawl with AC10s or UAC5s, it's better than other quickdraws, but it's not really good.
>>157220159
IS mediums are forgiving to new players because they don't explode after just looking at them. Especially the good old Camel which has structure quirks equivalent of an entire additional mech. IIC is definitely the best medium in the game but also one of the most fragile ones, you really need to know how to abuse the high mounts and that's not something you can realistically ask a Tier 5 prince to do.

Unless the nova is retarded and gets shot to shit on the approach, sparky will lose. There's plenty of terrain on maps to close the distance relatively unscathed and rip a target to shreds in a nova.

>>157223458
ps:
Hunchie IIC has clam xl so it doesn't die by being side torsod unlike IS mediums, as most of them need a xl. IS huch doesn't but that has the trademark hunchback-syndrome (cept camel).
>>157223587
The clan hunch also doesn't have the structure quirks, so it's a slow medium with fuck all hp. Your defense is jizzing autocannon shells on the target's face so they can't shoot back, and not exposing yourself to more than enemy at a time.
You can forget the perils of XL engine if it's your CT that explodes.
So when are they going to fix the Kodiak 3?

>>157223769
Isn't even that slow if you run a 275xl.
It's small and can expose almost nothing of itself. Hunchie CT is no less dificult to core than a ST on a IS medium with xl even with querks. In fact its both of the STs that go on when you die in the hunch IIC 95% of the time.
Uber qwerked IS mediums like the camel might be good for a scrub, but will teach bad habbits.

I concede this point. If they don't have any specific playstyle or mechfu in mind, I'd recommend mechs that are good and not gimmicky to a noob. Heavies like wankhammer or timber madwolf.

What the fuck are you on. The stormcrow wasn't changed in the rescale, and most mediums became bigger making the stormcrow relatively smaller than it was before the rescale. The hunch is great but so fucking what, the stormcrow is the one and only medium king and always will be.

No one uses fucking Wolfhounds now. Wolfhounds and Firestarters are nonexistant, but they already weren't used very often just before the rescale anyways.
Jenner IIC, Arctic Cheetah, Spider, Locust. These are the lights people use right now.
>>157247506
>>157247657
Why would you use a Wolfhound when the Arctic Cheetah exists? Even a Locust is better.
>>157247869
I've used Wolfhounds to complete every Light KMDD for this entire event right now, and It's my go-to IS light mech.
People have been playing Jenners because of the exact mentality you display, and I never see them do any good, if anything they've been my easiest kills, especially when I can out range them for the SRMs.
I have no fucking clue why people are using Spiders right now, that honestly baffles me more than the Wolfhound hate lately.
But hey, it's however you want to play, shit or not.

Great, I've done it with Adders. What's your point?
>People have been playing Jenners because of the exact mentality you display, and I never see them do any good, if anything they've been my easiest kills, especially when I can out range them for the SRMs.
Jenners don't just use SRMs. There's also 6SPL and 5/6ML builds that are every bit as strong as any other light.
>I have no fucking clue why people are using Spiders right now, that honestly baffles me more than the Wolfhound hate lately.
Because it's an amazing harassing mech with incredible agility, the ability to spam an LPL over and over again, and then 4MGs that actually tear shit up after the match is halfway over.
The Wolfhound isn't "completely useless" like the other anon said, but it is far from where it was before rescale (in which it still wasn't being picked over the strongest lights). It's no Mist Lynx, Kit Fox, or Commando, I mean it's a laser boat 35 tonner of course you will be able to pull damage in it, but it's flat out inferior to the best offerings of the class.

Adders get a lot of undeserved hate too, so what's yours? Mine was a contest to the claim that "no one uses fucking Wolfhounds now", simply because it isn't true. I personally use them, and have seen them been used. Are they more rare? Sure are. Are the reasons behind why people have made them more rare flawed? Absolutely.
Doesn't matter, vast majority of Jenners, IIC or otherwise you'll encounter, are always SRM spam, and always do shit all. Just because the mech is said to be intrinsically better by the majority doesn't mean pilots in practical use will perform in it.
So it's a man walking 30 ton Locust 1V with JJ's? Stop the presses folks! We've found a mech larger, shittier, and squishier than one of the quirkiest shit bots around! Tier fucking One lads!
The irony is that it completely destroys your notion that the Wolfhound becoming larger makes it inferior if you're going to honestly tell me that a mech larger than one that already exists is superior to it with the same payload.

The Locust doesn't get MGs and a jumpjet. The Spider has seen minor falloff due to increase in size, but it's still one of the better choices. I don't know what you're getting at here. The Spider is one of the most taken lights competitively in the game, along with the Jenner IIC. It's an incredibly good mech. It's also not as squishy as a Locust at all, it gets better structure quirks nevermind its higher health to begin with.
If you think Jenner IICs with SRM spam are useless I can't imagine what game you're playing. Like 90% of lights the rescale has hurt them, but 6x6 Jenner IICs are the ultimate in backstabbing technology. They aren't for fighting lights.
> Are the reasons behind why people have made them more rare flawed? Absolutely.
They aren't though. The Wolfhound doesn't do anything noteworthy. Its only claim to fame pre rescale was having excellent hardpoint layouts and tight hitboxes, but that's gone now.
Adders don't get undeserved hate either. They bring little to the table. They've come a long ways, but there's still little point to taking one compared to its faster brethren.
It seems like you're triggered over mere semantics at that. Of course there's no mech in the game no one at all uses. Wolfhounds, however, are the rarest of all 35 tonners, and one of the rarer lights in the game period presently. This is also all coming from someone who championed the Wolfhound as a great mech at the start of this year when it got its quirk changes.

It's not. Still does well, its just that there's way more competition.
Rescale made it larger than it was before, while making the compeaing nova tiny.
Also clan hunchie with it's perfect hardpoint placement is a thing.
However I still think that crow is your best bet if you want to do clan-medium srm brawling or streaks.

Fortunately the Prime might be usable with stock omnipods for that sweet -10% ER duration.
>>157334423
No? Loyalty scheme of last year was a hexagonal overlay, you could have any camo you want.
The Atlas and King Crab and shit had set schemes but you could alter the colours on them, and now I believe you can change the camo on them too.
>>157335181
That's exactly what I mean. Like the faction patterns, they have a different standard color but unlocking the pattern doesn't unlock the color.
>>157335087
>Prime, stock pods
>Gauss + 3 tons ammo, 5x ERML, 4x double heatsinks
>ballistic cooldown + er burn duration reduction
Might be a bit warm, but it's running a clan heavy build on a medium. Damn that's good.
>>157335508
I'd go down to 4ML and take a TC. It's also only a 50 tonner with no structure or armor quirks so it's going to explode as soon as you look at it.
>>157336413
It'll die just as fast an HBK IIC or Storm Crow (basically). While it's definitely fragile it has the power to get away with that.
Here's hoping it is only on the smaller side.
>>157336873
It'll be bigger than a stormcrow, mark my words.
Bets on it being the biggest medium.
>>157336976
Highly doubtful considering the thickness of its legs.
>>157336976
>It'll be bigger than a stormcrow, mark my words.
>Bets on it being the biggest medium.
Can you be any more wrong?
>>157336873
I suspect the Goose+ML build will quickly become popular and people will grow accustom to it, making it even more fragile as the side torsos are really pronounced and easy to hit. But at least you will still have all your 4 lasers on the left side of the mech.
So like all other Clan 50 tonners, it will be a glass cannon.
>>157336976
It doesn't look that big honestly.
>>157337413
>>157336413
Other stock pod prime alternative is 2x LPL 3x ERML with 8x extra double heatsinks and a targeting computer.
Or 2x LPL and 4x ERML if you drop one heatsink.
>>157337756
At that point you're a much worse Hunchback.
>>157337815
Yeah but you can get lower actuators for your LPLs. It actually makes a pretty big difference.
>>157337413
The gauss cannot fit in the huntsmans side torsos. The thing does not have the space for it there if the store page for it is any indication, what with a Jump Jet, Fixed Structure Slot x1, and Fixed Armor Slot x3.
That leaves the side torsos with only 5 spaces of room.
The arms will also only have 6 spaces of room, assuming PGI forgot to mention the shoulder component from the arm listing....
>>157338087
The Gauss goes in the right arm. Easy fit my man.
>>157338365
You can fit it on the Right shoulder using the B pod. If it uses the same values as the Table top setups.
>>157338729
I think the idea is to use the full Prime set for the small but relevant quirks.
>>157338823
>>157338729
Actually the +10% Ballistic Cooldown is probably tied to the Prime right arm. We'll just have to see. In any case it's going to be a fragile 50 tonner with a bunch of guns.
>10% ballistic cool down justifies Gauss
I'll never understand this game, or the people that play it.
>>157338976
22%
>>157339121
27% with mastery.
So that's a 3,65s cooldown on the gauss.
>>157329606
Sort of want Stalker. That BJ looks awful though.
>>157339331
Nice.
>>157338953
It almost certainly isn't and is a set of 8 bonus like the Viper and Night Gyr.

>8t of ammo
haha what that is retarded and you are retarded
>>157339681
Thanks PGI.
>>157339851
I like the set of 8 bonus for certain good mechs like TBRs, EBJs, NTGs, but it shouldn't be a replacement for individual omnipod quirks and shouldn't be given to mechs like the Viper.
>>157339868
Why would it be retarded my good fellow? You need lots of ammo to carry Kong shitters.
>>157339987
The set bonus is just fucking omnimechs in the ass, at that point you're basically inferior to a battlemech in every possible way.
It's even dumber on the timber, because the set bonus isn't even doing anything for you, it's undoing the negative quirks from some of the torsos. Like it's not even enough that having matching torsos for A or paying the epik jump jet tax for S torsos would be enough to negate the penalties, you have to have the perfect set.
>>157340394
Quirks and especially negative quirks are just proof of how incredibly incompetent and lazy PGI are at making this game.
>>157340473
Quirks are just a terrible way to 'balance' mechs. They should at the very least be bonuses that you can play around, or ignore entirely.
>>157340394
Hey remember how in the lore that Omnimechs were supposed to be superior to Battlemechs because they were more versatile?
Yeaaaaah, I think PGI forgot about that.
>>157340394
I agree with the current way the TBR's are setup. Ideally it would have no negative quirks anywhere, a small smattering of quirks to individual omnipods (like the missile velocity bonuses present on the 1M STs) and then a little more decent quirks if you use a whole set.
For instance a stock TBR-D might get -5% heat gen, or the -S might get ballistic cooldown, etc.
I find it just another fun variable to consider when making builds.
>>157340794
I disagree, quirks are a great system in concept. They've gotten pretty muddled but they've positively impacted the game still, and as a general idea they're a great way to diversify. Even if this game had hardpoint sizes like MW4 I would advocate quirk systems.
The problem is they don't really do interesting things with them to play on mechs. Someone mentioned making the Dragon have gigantic CT quirks years ago and little else to encourage tanking with the nose, or the Adder having lots of extra rear armor. The latter might not be all the useful but it's the fun kind of diversity quirks are made to bring out.
>>157340950
I still think the availability of Clan tech and mechs just completely broke the game, as it would any other MechWarrior game, it's just nos possible to balance it. It would have been fine as a co-op PvE mode but I guess they couldn't refuse the mountains of grab deal gold.
>>157340394
How about this. Remove the pod system. Omnimechs now have generic slots that can fit any weapon with or without size restriction. Now quirk each Omnimech base configuration around that.
Omnimechs are now different, and useful.
>>157340473
>>157340794
The idea behind quirks is workable, but they've had to quirk some things that shouldn't be have to be quirked because of fucked up game mechanics.
>having to give offensive quirks to clan mechs because their omnimech rules have shoved a thousand cocks up half of the omnis metallic assholes
>assaults and heavies need to be agility quirked, sometimes even on clans, because turn rates are fucked and the good light mechs and fast mediums can shit out retarded amounts of damage compared to TT
>not quirking terrible IS mech variants enough so they're on more equal footing compared to other IS mechs of the same weight class or even same chassis
>>157341150
Clan mechs are pretty balanced in this game though. Even before all the quirks PGI did make some good attempts at tradeoffs with things like laser duration and multi shot ACs, though it wasn't until quirks we truly got parity.
>>157341464
That would be retarded and the pod system is way better.
>>157341101
>quirks are a great system in concept
They really aren't. It's lazy and boring. Oh we made a mech that's unplayable garbage? Let's just make all weapons fire twice as fast and increase the structure health by 50% somehow who knows it's Lostech fairies. It's so dumb. I'd rather enjoy half as many well designed mechs than twice as many shoddy shitmechs patched together with band-aid.
>>157341150
They've butchered the omnis and clan weapons enough that they're pretty close to the quirked IS mechs.
>>157341713
>half as many well designed mechs than twice as many shoddy shitmechs patched together with band-aid.
The problem with that is it doesn't make PGI money. They want to just put out as many mechs as possible.
>>157341713
The problem is no matter what you're going to end up with samey mechs with little to differentiate them. Especially when you get to MWO's numbers of mechs. And this is talking sheerly in what they can do loadout wise. Then you factor in hitboxes and hardpoint placement and viable mech diversity fucking tanks.
Quirks are the best way to remedy having atrociously designed mech layouts with the gameplay of Mechwarrior games without redesigning every mech to be 100% meta compliant and killing their original look.
>>157341852
I know, they've missed the boat.
>>157341976
No I don't think so. There's a lot of creative ways to make mechs unique despite having similar layouts. And to avoid completely hopeless cases I'd just give TT purists the finger and use a little bit of creative freedom.

Every 55 tonner is bigger than a stormcrow. On top of that it has the best hitboxes that spread damage perfectly. That's part of the reason it's the best medium and always will be.

what gender are you? afaik angels are sexless, matthew 22:30 says:

but then, no sex doesn't mean no gender, does it? and then, sex can be outside of marriage too... but it's a sin while angels supposedly don't sin? but how about genesis 6:4?
>The Nephilim were on the earth at that time (and also immediately afterward), when those divine beings were having sexual relations with those human women, who gave birth to children for them.
also it's noted that angels don't "marry" in heaven, does it mean they can do it when they visit the earth?

>>157363654
Yes. Playing CW still fucks with your mech stats. I managed to farm a lot of my CW mechs down to like 100 average damage with like 4+ KDRs, because the mech stats count CW for kills, matches played, but don't count damage. It's horrendously broken, and part of why I quit giving a fuck about mech stats.
What they don't count for is the leaderboards. The leaderboards are only for regular matches.
