Since so many people here are totally convinced of the failure of the Trial Mech sytem to get players started, how about we give them their very own Battlemech to grind out that Cadet Bonus in, and give everyone a shiny new URBANMECH?!??!
You get to practice with 2 weapon types, Heat is not an issue keeping them from being "Smurfy optimal" and they have great armor and even Jump Jets!!!!
What say you?!?!?! Never let another Newb suffer in a Trial MEch when he could suffer in his very own, customizable Urbanmech instead!!!

They know if they released the Urbie as MC only, they'd sell a LOT of them, so I doubt they'd give them away.

I love this idea! We need a "love it" button, a simple like is not good enough!

I have a feeling it would be piloted by two types. Noobs who didn't know better and ultra elites that can win in anything. I don't know why, but I'd love to pick up the little trashcan. I already have one as a cockpit ornament.

look everyone gets a urbanmech.......Except BISHOP! ![:lol:](https://static.mwomercs.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/laugh.png)
Look bishop has to master a hero mech....and then they award him ONE urbanmech limb.......Is that cool?...... See and then he has to master another then they give him another limb.
Is that fair?
Afterwards he has 24hrs.....to like master a random mystery mech....so like if he picks wrong it like gives him a clue whats the right mech....
If he fails....the whole thing resets.![:)](https://static.mwomercs.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.png)

In the games current setup it is only of interest to the hardcore fans of the genre.
Any online game that really wants to grow BIG must be newcomer friendly from the start, which this game isn't.
They should have sorted out the match making system properly before it ever went open beta.
As is, putting trial mechs up against all and sundry was a bad idea that was allowed to fester and has gone septic to the games growth.
I am one of the casual gamers who wanted to get into it and enjoy it but this just isn't possible.
As and when they start putting trial mechs against each other while we learn the ropes of tactical combat I will be happy to try again but till then it makes no difference to me what mech I'm piloting. It's tactical experience that really makes the difference for me and so many others who are coming to the genre for the first time.

fix heat so that instead of 1.4 being optimal 1.0 should be.
