Let's Hear It For The Victor!

Sat, 25 May 2013 06:21:22 +0000

I don't know about the rest of you but I'm very excited to have such a great Davion mech added to the line up. I for one will be adding several of these to my mechlab. http://mwomercs.com/...mech-20-victor/

Battlemech 20: Victor

Sat, 25 May 2013 06:16:26 +0000

The roar of her jump jets fill her ears she lands on the side of the hill firing her gauss rifle at the distant Atlas. As it turned to fire back, she waits till just before it had her in his sights to trigger her jump jets. Twin PPC blasts hit the ground where she was, followed by a gauss round, as her second gauss shot smacks into its side torso. The fight continues for a solid minute, and her opponent is clearly not amused. As another flight of LRMs sails toward her, she lands her Mech behind cover. Popping out on the other side, she lands with just enough of the Atlas in sight to fire off a round before moving again – and destroying the enemy Atlas’ right shoulder. The gauss rifle explodes, turning the centre torso dark orange on her screen. "This is Captain Von Deum to Alpha lance, are you close to my position? I have one enemy Atlas remaining, heavily damaged." "We’re with you, Captain. Five-hundred metres out and closing. You have enemy Cataphract and Centurion on your left flank.” "Roger – moving to intercept.” As she jumpjets over another obstacle, she sees a quick glimpse of her opponents. The Cataphract rises into the air before her in the distance, letting off an alpha of two ERPPC’s and a Gauss shot, completely passing by her. Reaching the apex of its jump, she fires her gauss, smashing into the right torso. As the Centurion moves to her left behind cover, and she closes the distance to the ‘Phract. Rising he fires, his rounds sailing wide of her. She returns, firing her gauss as he reaches his apex, and just as before, hitting the right side torso. Injured, she closes the space to come within SRM range. As she strides along at 64 km/h, her first SRM4 salvo crashes into the ‘Phract, hitting the centre and right torso. This time her opponent fires at her from the ground, just as she taps her jump jets, throwing his aim off and taking one ERPPC hit to the right leg. Landing she fires her gauss rifle and medium pulse lasers, followed by volley of SRMs. The enemy Cataphract’s side torso explodes outward, hurling sideways into the ground. Assuming the Centurion to be behind her at this point, she turns and lifts off just as an AC/10 round hits her left arm and twin medium lasers pulling up after her, lightly damaging both her legs, followed by a volley of SRMs missing entirely. Landing she returns fire with a gauss/medium pulse laser combo to her opponents centre torso, followed by her own SRM volley, the Centurion twists to get its left arm in the way. She quickly closes the distance as it tries to sneak shots. As they trade shots, she finds that she had removed the enemy Mechs left arm, right arm, and left torso, leaving only its centre torso medium lasers. “Captain, pull back south! Bandits at F6, full lance!” "Received, on my way.” She replies, sailing over an obstacle. Alarms rang through her cockpit: WARNING – INCOMING MISSILES “Captain you have massive incoming LRMs, can you make it?” “I’ll be fine,” she says, smiling down at her Victor after landing behind cover “We do this all the time.”

Steel And Snow Ooc Reboot

Sat, 25 May 2013 06:15:45 +0000

The year is 3061, and the 2nd Company of the Rogue's Armoured Irregulars, 'Angelus' Company, is mustering at Outreach for an offensive.
The target is undisclosed, but in addition to the mechs of their second company it has been revealed the Irregulars are fielding 4 squadrons of Vulcan fighters and two mighty Pinto class corvettes, RAIV Myrmidon and RAIV Valorous . Rumours on Outreach indicate that they have attempted to contact their old allies, the Green Hearts infantry company for ground support.
Stranger still, they seek to hire a mixed mercenary unit from those present on Outreach. Several corps have offered units, eager to be involved as the Irregulars have indicated a high pay check - but none have been accepted.

However, a former RAI member, Thom Frankfurt has been wandering the Inner Sphere once more after being released from his contract. As usual, the barely comprehensible mechwarrior wandered from spot to spot making contacts, scamming employers and generally keeping an eye out for any opportunity - This time though, he's set out with the goal of creating his own mercenary company. On Outreach, he has registered the unit with the MRBC and begun recruiting, trying both old friends from years long past and likely looking fresh faces he spotted stepping off a dropship.
You are his recruits. You've counted yourself amongst the newly founded 'Thom's Terrors' for only a matter of days when Thom contacted you again, informing you the unit has been secured for the RAI job and to pack your gear aboard the Achille's Pride.

But even the hardiest of warriors, despite the rumoured riches to be had are nervous and you aren't them. Where does a merc corp get not one, but two WarShips? Why have they turned away such notables as the Dragoons who run Outreach, despite prior working relationships? Why are Irregulars often seen escorting or being escorted by Comstar Adepts?
So far, the only man who knows for sure is Captain Vantas Strider. The eccentric mechwarrior seems to be in charge, despite holding the same rank as both corvette captains. At the least, it's his name on the recruitment ads.
The recruitment ads that read simply:

Quote

Rogue's Armoured Irregulars Second Company, 'Angelus' recruiting combined arms mercenary unit for heavy fighting operations. High pay. Possible recruitment option. Danger: Extreme. Details secret until contract is confirmed.

And you cannot help but notice your commander was positively cheery about not having a clue what the mission was.

This RP is by invite only. Player limit has been reached and exceeded, barring a second Nor Azman showing up there will be no more additions to the RP.

I went dark so long that I don't think it's fair to insist on a 3 day post limit. I'd like people to post once per week. If you can't that's fine, but if you do end up going quiet expect me to harass you. If you're going to be gone for some time, let me know. This is GM led, so no throwing extra things into the RP without discussing it with me first
More importantly, don't be afraid to discuss stuff with me. I am a kind and benevolent GM who will only try to murder you a little for mischief.
Side plots are welcomed, but please approve them with me in a PM before beginning writing on them - I don't need a full script, but an outline of the idea will be required or I'll just walk over it. Trying to work around a sideplot when I don't know what it is is a level of difficulty I'm not looking to engage this time round!

As stated above, the RP is beginning on Outreach. I'm going to let Thom start the RP with the specific manner and method of him contacting you about boarding the Achille's Pride and accepting the mission. From then you have two days of in character time and two weeks of OOC time to post anything that happens before the Jump when the taskforce leaves the system.

So, approved players: Restart your posting!

Where Is Sli Support?

Sat, 25 May 2013 06:10:22 +0000

What is going on with this? This game is graphically intensive.

I have 2x Geforce 550Ti and obviously only utilizing one allowing me to play on medium/low settings with around 35-40FPS on a brand-new Win7 64-bit install..

So sad, even Hawken has SLI support!

MWO you let me down dearly. I don't have money for a $300 video card.

Тактика Борьбы Против Лрм-Лодок

Sat, 25 May 2013 06:08:51 +0000

После последнего патча, опять поднялся плач, но теперь против ЛРМ лодок. Чтобы не засорять другие темы, обсуждение борьбы с ЛРМ будем вести в этой теме.

Тактика №1 "Плачь Ярославны"
Ходить и ныть во всех темах (желательно в англоязычных), что ЛРМ лодки ОП, что от них нет житья, и что на них ездят "одно кнопочные нубы".

Тактика №2 "Самоучка"
Садится на ЛРМ лодку, учится играть на ней. Замечать действенные тактики против вас, подмечать укрытия противников, где вам сложно попасть, искать удобные позиции для ЛРМ. В последствии, зная где и как будут играть ЛРМ, действовать против них на других мехах.

Тактика №3 "Коллективная защита"
Играем четверками, все четверо ставят АМС, один берет ЕСМ меха. Передвигаться плотной группой, вести фокус по целям, использовать крупные укрытия. 4 АМС и ЕСМ позволяют полностью игнорировать 1-2 ЛРМ, превращая их в "бесполезные слоты" во вражеской команде.

ТС для совместной игры:
Открытый ТС Comstar EU от разработчиков Address: eu1.mech-connect.net Password: hG5!4Dg*

Конфиги ЛРМ лодок:
40 за залп + мобильность + доп оружие STK-3H 300XL 12xDHS 2xLRM20+1260 2xERPPC AMS+1t
55 (35+20) за залп + прыжки + STD HGN-733 275STD 11xDHS 2xJJ 1xLRM15 2xLRM20+1800 AMS+1t
60 (32+22+6) за залп + 2 АМС + STD STK-5S 250STD 10xDHS 4xLRM15+1620 2xAMS+2t
60 за залп + скорость AWS-8R 300XL 12xDHS 24xLRM15+1620 AMS+1t

Конфиги для коллективной защиты от ЛРМ

Вот вам концепт нового меха

Bravo Whisky Charlie: Military-Style, Veteran-Owned

Sat, 25 May 2013 05:38:11 +0000

Bravo Whisky Charlie - a gaming Company (not guild) - is recruiting. We are an international community, with a large player base in North America, the United Kingdom, and Europe, though you will find some of our members in the Middle East, Africa, and Australia as well.

We are a veteran-run, military-style, multi-game Company. You can expect a highly organized unit that provides training, teamwork, and a professional gaming attitude. Roughly half of our members are active-duty military, prior service, retired, and/or combat veterans. Note, a military background is *NOT* required. We are competitive, but we are not serious to the point of raging about it. We're in this game for competition and fun, not for role-play or e-peen wars. We don't care about your faction or other merc units; we care about having a good fight. Because we are competitive and organized, we do have minimum expectations for recruitment. See the TL/DR version immediately below.

BWC's Website:
http://www.the-bwc.com

TL/DR VERSION:

Recruitment into BWC will require a small amount of commitment on the part of potential recruits:
1) Players must post a recruitment application on the BWC forums using the application template on the forums.
2) Players will be required to read and /sign the SOP (our charter), provided they wish to continue the recruitment process.
3) We require members to sign up on the BWC Operations Server and place their Fruit Salad signature banner in their forum profile (BWC forums only).
4) Playing whilst on Teamspeak3 is required.
5) Recruits will go through a two-week evaluation period where they are expected to be active, to play with the rest of us, and participate in a few events tailored to evaluation of new players.

If these basic tasks are beyond your comprehension, do not apply. We don't need you and we don't want you. We say this not to be elitist, but because you cannot put forth a minimum amount of expected effort to be more than a zergling recruit. Sorry, but that's how it goes - we require capable warriors. Not people who need their hand held. Don't get a case of mads - join, or not. Either way we'll still be fighting.

You can theoretically stop reading there if you hate reading walls of text. If you want to know more, keep reading.

EXTENDED CUT - ABOUT US:

BWC is an award-winning gaming company which has been around for ten years, mostly in first-person shooters and MMOs. In that time we have built a solid reputation in online gaming as a gaming Company that believes in integrity, fair play, and teamwork. We are active in multiple online games, most of them shooters. There is a dedicated chain of command, well over 300 active members, close to a thousand in our entire history across at least eight different official games, an established Battle Decorations program that allows members to earn awards, and a Standard Operating Procedure that serves as our charter and code of conduct. Members may enter as a recruit and remain at that rank if they wish, or they can "buck for promotion" - we have a rank system and promotion system that mimics the US Army's promotion points system. All of this is tracked via our forum and what we call the Operations Server or OpServ for short - where we plan out official operations in OPORDER format. Voice comms will be required; we use Teamspeak3 as our poison of choice.

Players who elect to sign on with BWC can expect to find their brothers-in-arms ready and willing to support them on the virtual battlefield. We practice teamwork, communication, and coordination. Our reputation as a military-style unit truly began in the world's first and only true MMO-FPS, Planeside. Ever since the closed-beta days we have applied lessons learned on the virtual battlefield as well as real-world battlefields from small unit tactics to combined arms assaults. We took those lessons a step further and are a renowned award-winning scenario paintball team up and down the east coast of the United States with a reputation for frontline grunts, hard-hitting spec-ops tactics, and a Never Quit attitude. Our professional reputation means that our service is highly sought-after by scenario woods ball generals at big-name big game scenarios. We apply this same mentality in every game that we play, without compromising our desire to have fun and blow stuff up. When you work with the BWC, even if you're not a member, you know you're getting a coordinated strike force that will not quit. And if you *are* a member, even if you're not the most skilled shooter you are a part of the team and help drive us to victory.
