Patched. Patch validating message: install base is corrupt. Repair tool. Great.

Well again PGI strikes with the new map!!!! Its called a brawl map and if you have LRMS you can brawl for days. You want a good brawl map make a mining map with tunnels that is no more then 400 meters on a straight tunnel. But also have above ground as well other then just tunnels. Then you have no LRMS and would be more of a challenge for the player. The warhammer on the other hand seems to be a decent mech so far (until PGI breaks out the nerfs/quirks)

I totally disagree. Some of the durations are already atrocious, so maybe upping the heat, cooldown, or some other indirect solution.

On the flipside, maybe they should just make all beam weapons "continuous", IE: Change the internal timer so they fire continuously like flamers. If the Laser is on, it's firing. If it's off, it's not. I've always thought it's silly for beam lasers to function the way they do.
If you step back a moment and think about laser beams IRL: While they're on, they're on; While they're off, they're off.

Doing this to beam lasers would bring pulse lasers back into the spotlight. Pulse lasers having a short duration makes sense, because the energy is compressed into short pulses at the expense of tonnage and heat.

Maybe having longer cooldowns. Anything that lowers their DPS.

Is this a joke? Polar Highland is just a playground for LRM warfare. It's great that there's no breakable objects for better FPS but then, there's nothing much anyway lol.

Any IRL laser that is not a laser pointer or paper cutter is actually an impulse one. And utility lasers (for cutting things tougher than 8 mm plywood or 0.1 mm foils) have pulse duration of miliseconds and cooldown about seconds. THELs have their own cooldowns (measured in hours) after they are swithced off. So, sorry, for this type of fictional lasers we seen in game it's ok to have this type of operation.

December 19th? That's a hell of a wait for the next patch. Seems someone has been a bit into the sauce this evening.

C'mon! What is wrong with December 19th? Now it says "Next Patch January 19th". That is like 363 days from now

New map is great, good work PGI.

I hate playing conquest, but this map and the points are great
