Hey PGI, I know you guys take your time and put in due diligence before you adjust things here there to make the game more enjoyable. That said, there have been couple major notable instances on when you guys were taking too long to address. First was Streak missiles doing center torso only. Second was ECM which is now finally being nerfed by BAP buff and UAV consumable coming in on next patch.

In order to save yourselves the current grief of excessive poptarting which will get worse with BlackJack. You should look into adjusting poptarting. One very simple solution is to add shake and rattle to cockpit of mechs Jumping.

Shake and rattle will make mechs Jumping in air and sniping at people harder to do with ballistics and energy weapons. However adding in strong shake and rattle will not stop JJ being used as scouting tool, to roll the damage to legs, getting out of dodge, or allowing mechs to jump and fire misiles.

But it will reduce poptarting because aiming will be harder and therefore less effective. Less effective poptarting is, more exposed you need to get to use your long range ballistics and PPCs which balance things out for the better.

Please take this into consideration. It's easy fix to a bad problem that's annoying the crap out of everyonee.

you can add shake manually by shooting them.
