I think more sarcasm than anything else really.

We are currently assessing the increase in LRM/SSRM/SRM damage currently on the live production servers. Expect an official response later today. A hot fix is likely this week.

So this was posted at 8:17 PST, so when you guys basically came into work.

I want to know how this went.

8:05, Bryan arrives. "Hey Paul, have a good night? Wonder how everyone is enjoying that new map and the badass Jaeger?"
Paul: "I don't know, let's check..."

8:10: Computers logged on, forums opened. "Huh...a thread about LRMmaggedon. Well, we've seen these kinds of things before...



8:15: Emergency staff meeting called
8:17: Post on forums saying there will be an official response.

Could we be expecting missile splash damage to be removed earlier than normal instead of April 2nd patch day?

If there is a true MechWarrior God, we can.

The Streak and SRM issues is beyond brutal. One can attempt to hide from LRM's, but SRM's and Streaks, not so much.

Didn't watch the movie Office Space?

but i liked my robotech style jump jetting missile swarm of apocalyptic proportions !

[Acid Phase]

One more thing I propose though. Have some sort of skill involved in Streaks & LRMs. For example. For every shot taken, make a re-lock feature. That way we don't have unskilled trigger happy pilots holding down that fire button.

You are missing out sir!

Back to topic, Any new news Bryan???

[Joker Two]

Thank you for a quick acknowledgement of this issue. I realize you guys have a lot to work on, but I feel like the most important thing for the community is getting quick responses from you guys, so we know you're paying attention.

[Jman5]

Now where are those people who insisted they were fine?

[SQUIRRELLL]

Hoping its soon. Saw someone do 2700 damage.....

Good. Missiles have been a little too potent for their skill requirement for some time. I say this from personal experience as an LRM boat in a group with only 1 other player.

sound like ECM

The fast response bodes well for the communication between the dev team and players. =)

Any statement on the horribly broken JagerMech headboxes though?

Would love to hear something on the jager head, but I do think most of it is from the raining that has been going on.

But I do feel that the headbox on the jager is a bit bigger than it should be.

[Hayashi]

It's not just the LRMs. I can headshot any Mech that is standing still, but the JagerMech is the only Mech I can headshot while both the target and myself are running at full speed. And I'm using Pulse Lasers only.

Then yes, that's a problem.

Kinda reminds you of the Cataphrat days.

[Damocles69]

Holy hell! You guys are are actually fixing them!?

P. S. Please nerf them into the ground then see fire to them so we can watch them explode

Have had too many headshots connect on my jager while on the move from 1000m+ away.
