>tfw you get 240/100 fiber and finally free yourself from the local monopoly ISP with shitty prices and rates, only to discover the CPE is the IT equivalent of gore porn.
>tfw they're gonna have to replace the CPE, redraw the fiber, redo every single plug, and it's gonna take them at least a whole fucking week.
>tfw you're stuck on stolen 0.4/0.02 internet that could go at any time.
>tfw polish ghetto technicians caused this.

I guess I need to keep a positive attitude. I mean, at least the place didn't burn down, miraculously enough.

You have to get a KMDD against an Urbie and get less than 100 damage in a map.

The reward is some warhorn I think.

RESPECT THE ROBOT

>have to work saturdays

i cant take it anymore make it stop pls

>>172725272
Fuck if I know how I got it, but yeah it's a warhorn. However, it's not a regular warhorn, as it seems to only activate when YOU get killed, instead of activating when you score a killing blow.

Not sure. I got it with my hunch running nothing but UAC-20s. Lasers do show as having infinite ammo though, so it's possible you'd have to be running all ammo use weapons.

I am trying to develop a character for a short story I am trying too write, and I need a little help. The main character is supposed to be a dashing rogue mechwarrior, but I can't think of an appropriate mech for him to pilot. The story is set around 3025, so please keep your suggestions to that era.

Also with advanced quirks the Quickdraw has the fliparms quirk allowing it to fire two medium lasers rearward allowing for considerable rear firepower (4x medium on the 4G, 2xMed 1xSRM4 on the 4H) The 5A is a lame medium laser only mek.

agreed. I started playing this game back in mid-January. The three mech BS is what's keeping me from doing much of anything. I'm not about to buy 3 Timber Wolves or 3 Gargoyles or 3 Atlas or 3 anything other than Urbies.

Why not? You can just sell the ones you won't be using long term.

>>172804643
Urbies have a shitload of armor and structure quirks.

they are way tankier than they should be
Plus high mounted weapons and general small silhouette. Torso shape isn't great but it is okay.

I run a 2 ERLL 3 MG on my -60. Use it to poke and then MGs work well if you can open up any holes.

I use 3 MG instead of 4 because I run out of ammo too fast with 4.

>>172804851

not worth the time and effort for one mech when I could buy another unique mech, at least skill tree would've made it cheaper to master a mech even if it did have mandatory skills and made skill nodes too granular, I blame the goldmen who dislike change.

>>172805456
How many truly unique mechs are there?
Most hulls are just a different flavor for a couple of archetypes.

>>172805782
lots What timeframe are you talkinga bout? Just in MWO, in battletech the tabletop? What era of the tabletop?

If only they listened to their alpha players to keep the game as the alpha version instead of dumbing it down in the beta and later release version.

If you mean the full sized versions, the Sniper Artillery and Thumper Artillery can be Mech mounted. Using their actual tabletop maximum ranges of 18 maps for the Sniper and 21 maps for the Thumper, it would translate to 9,180 meters and 10,710 meters respectively. The Long Tom artillery is too large for Mechs but can be vehicle mounted with a range of 30 maps or 15,300 meters.

As far as the smaller snub nosed artillery cannons are concerned though all three can be Mech mounted but you are looking at Long Tom Cannon, Sniper Cannon, and Thumper Cannon ranges of 600 meters, 360 meters and 410 meters. If those were in MWO maybe those ranges would be doubled at the most.

Would still need to have a crit splitting mechanic for the Sniper Artillery, Thumper Artillery, and Long Tom Cannon though anyway since they exceed 12 crits, so realistically speaking unless the deep rooted CryEngine errors can be fixed the only ones that could from a technical standpoint even be implemented would be the Sniper Cannon and Thumper Cannon.


Long Tom Artillery: 30 tons, 30 crits, 25 damage, 20 heat
Sniper Artillery: 20 tons, 20 crits, 20 damage, 10 heat
Thumper Artillery: 15 tons 15 crits, 15 damage, 6 heat
Long Tom Cannon: 20 tons 15 crits, 20 damage, 20 heat
Sniper Cannon: 15 tons 10 crits, 10 damage, 10 heat
Thumper Cannon: 10 tons 7 crits, 5 damage, 6 heat

Never played the old MW games. Is 4 worth playing? Do I need a joystick or are the controls similar to MWO?

>>172828585
It works just fine on mouse and keyboard, just nowhere near as responsive.

That was my next question, actually. Is MW4 worth multiple playthroughs? If it is I'll probably do vanilla first.

>>172828837
There are two main paths to take in the campaign (Steiner and Davion) and a third smaller one, all of which result in a different ending.

There are also different ways you can limit yourself to spice things up. Such as IS or Clan tech only, or salvage only.

Is it worth spending freebie MC on cache keys to try and get more mc/keys/mechbays? Or should I just save it until I have enough for something I want when it goes on sale? I have like 30 of them stockpiled now, but I dunno how worth it they are to worry about.

And does a mech that's won from a cache come with a free mechbay? I've got a bunch that have potential mechs in them, so I'm wondering if I do buy keys if they're worth going for even if I don't want the mech.

That's why they're probably going to be good, LRMs and SSRM are trash with few exceptions.

lurms can be excellent if used enmasse and have a rock solid tag scout.

or polar memelands with target decay in low tiers

>>172878821
LRMs are outright trash 9/10 times, low damage output, good as a 3rd side weapon like Whispers Highlander. SSRM are trash unless boated to the maximum for huge splat or you'd just take regular SRMs with lasers and poke with lasers until you can get into SRM range.

The 8R is literally the best mech in the game.

Was the Armored Core 6 thing actually an april fools joke? No one's ever talked about it so I'm assuming it is. Either that or no one other than me and like 5 people care which would be really unfortunate.

GONK is full of shitters too.

We had a big problem last season where people had only shit mechs.

Not only that, but there's very few good light pilots.
