Everyone agrees the Ghost heat system is just a sloppy crutch that doesn't make any sense.

When will the true heat scale and heat penalties be put in this game?

I am talking about as heat goes up, THE FOLLOWING SHOULD OCCUR

1) slower mechs walk/run speeds
2) slower arm movement
3) slower torso movement
4) Hud and vision fuzz,
5) Heat streams
6) Ammo explosions
7) pilot damage

Paul should be ashamed of the lack of a heat system in this game. :D

Now its not a faulty Generalization, and more accurate. :unsure:

NEVERtm

the sooner you embrace that reality (ludicrous as it may be), the sooner you can either move on and enjoy it for what it is, or move on to another game to enjoy instead.

How about I continue to be a grumpy old man and enjoy the parts of the game I do like as well?

Never. Not even a blip on the radar. Best we can hope for is some minor tweaks to GH.

I can say for certain it will happen sometime between now and the eventual heat-death of the universe.

Count on it!

I asked this question in one of the old Ask the Devs and the answer was something like this:

PGI would like to do a whole suite of dynamic heat penalties, but given the server-authoritative nature of the game, it is a very difficult and complicated process to implement. It is unlikely to happen any time soon, but maybe once they get through the Clans, CW, etc., they'll be able to free up some resources to look at solutions to the dynamic heat effect problem.

They sure took a lot of words to say no.
