1UAC/10 + 1UAC/5 + 1LPL + 3ERML? Put the Hero pods on a WHK-C.

It would be a pretty decent loadout.

IMO, the Warhawk would benefit a lot more from more energy hardpoint, due to Summoner-syndrome.

Ferro, no Endo, big engine, lots of hardlocked heat sinks.

Those things are all huge negatives if you want to boat ballistics. The Warhawk is kind of set up to either boat energy weapons or combine ballistics with energy weapons. And with this hero mech, the best you can do is... 4E + 2B?

I'm not sure I would pay even $1 for this one.

B... but, P2W complaints. That's why Heroes (pods) can't be "so much better".

Is that pay-to-win, or pay to make minimally viable? I mean, we're still talking about the Kit Fox.

Lets face it, the only Clan light that might be considered P2W is the ACH. The other have nasty limits that prevent them from being fully OP.

I thank you for funding the game for us through 2017.


We whales made PGI grab habits worse.

I just don't see the hero right arm being as good as the A right arm pod. Although since pre-order is irrelevant, one can wait to see what the quirks are.

Ultimate Warhawk would probably be RA-A + RT-F + CT-C + LA-Hero/B

Nah, more like $20 for pods. Dire Whale Trapper Keeper looks boss, though.

I like the game and I don't mind throwing the developers a bone here and there. How does that make me a sucker?

Well considering an AAA Title is like 60 bucks, and i think most of us have payed over 60 Bucks and we still don't have anything close to an AAA Title.

I mean not even PVE Content. PGI Has taken your money to design more mechs to take more of your money.

more than 60$ is an understatement.

The number is so F*ing huge that I'm afraid to actually go back and check.
When you cross the 1K line you'll understand why I'm salty to have a game very similar to what we had in 2012 closed beta + more mechs (No, CW is considered as negative points)

If I wasn't broke at the time (and thank god I was, looking back) I would have bought a gold mech. Let that sink in. Now I feel like if I make a post longer than 3 sentences I'll say something I'll regret.

Hey EL, I remember you wrote that you would buy a lurmer hero and make it shine.
What about the Warhawk?

To pass my criteria, the Assault Hero LRM Boat must be able to wield either 4xLRM15 with Artemis, or at least 6xLRM5s. Unfortunately, the Hero Warhawk can only field 3 missiles slots max, so it is not desirable to me.

I am just gonna wait for either the Longbow Hero, or the Blood Kite Hero, for the moment.
