I know, but a standard engine and the design of the hitboxes would be very friendly too. The issue is a big engine + firepower don't mix with standards.

Part of why I long for an "old tech" mode - no DHS, XL, ES, ER anything, ECM, and so on... I really felt like the original tech in the original game had great balance. A lot of that just isn't the same.

I would love for a Pre Helm-Core mode, I agree it was much more balanced like that.

To tide you guys over.


Got some colors.
From the Limes I picked up: Mica, Moss, Naitaka, Olive.
From the Oranges I picked up: Pyramid, Gamboge, (already had Kolin Tan), and Citrine.
From the Greys, I picked up Battleship Grey.

I got Phranken for several mechs that it looked good on. Some vagabond, and one or two virus.

Look forward to it all in future screenshots.

Over the next couple of days I'll be uploading the flamer spider vids from this screenshot spree:

This will be the first of them.


Got to do something while Lordred's on vacation, right?

Episode 2. Crimson Strait. Managed to get a kill with a flamer and 4 MGs. Our "heavy" lance member, a Cataphract 4x was too slow to bail so we took a lot of damage trying to support him until he fell. Music from Homeworld 2.


Next one will feature music from NGNG's first album.

I'd love to see my CDA-X5, CTF-4X or AWS-8Q on here. I just went through all 33 pages, amazing stuff, I never see anything this "alive" in my game. Very good work!

Thanks, just kinda 'bored' at this time, rather then burn out I am giving it a little time.

Looks like you caught a Thunderbolt sleeping on the job.

would you guys be willing to snap a nice screenshot of some of my mechs for a personal slideshow/desktop? some JJ shots or action stuff? PM me! or HPG-NA-ts3; CSA.

[Koniving]

Suppose that depends, Zudukai. But I don't mind having people tag along to try to get screenshots of them.

Some quick basics:

• Shots are best when you ignore the camera.
  
• Don't act or pose. Trust in Lordred to make you look awesome even when you get your butt handed to you.
  
• Simply play with free ECM chasing you around.

That said, I hit a snag with the third flamer spider vid but there's nothing I can do except release it. Check the description of the vid for what's wrong with it (as well as where to get the awesome music).

[Lordred]

Some shots.

I just noticed your C1 has my basic design. o.O; The Ist-ka-too-eh.

Catapults:

• Inevitably Superior to the K2 in all Endeavors. C1-built K2 mockery, also dubbed the IS-T-K2-AE or pronounced: "Ist-ka-2-eh?" As the title implies, it is essentially a C1 demonstrating its superior ability to play the role of a K2 in either an AC/40-style rig (as penalties will NOT attack it) or as mockery of the stock K2 by showing itself capable of leaping shots and reaching locations that the K2 cannot.
  
• Kon's personal Ist-ka-2-eh. A brawling form of the IS-T-K2-AE, this rig has been my C1 of choice for a long time. Its twin small pulse lasers are rapid fangs to take a bite into what the ER PPCs have opened up for quicker kills.
  
• Kitty 2's Got Bite. A K2 unorthodox build utilizing pop-can mechanics. Fry armor with PPCs to pop the top, then close in and feast on their innards.
  
• Hi-Five Kitty Gimme Two! A fast brawling K2 designed to run in and hit hard. When heat gets high, fire only the AC/5s.
  
• The Lazy Puss. A slow, fat, lazy kitty that when it can be bothered to do something... the entire enemy team will rage.
  
• The Missile Game A C4 rig revolving around being a high speed missile launcher.
  
• The Missile Game Mark II relies on faster but smaller torrents of missiles. When accompanied with the original, the two can make a devastating pair. Mark II drains the target, the original obliterates it. In return, when close combat ensues the Mark II is the one who gets the kills.
  
• No More Games; a C4 that isn't playing around anymore. Unlike the original and Mark II, "No More Games" is close range only and is made to obliterate enemies from around assault mechs without screwing around or toying with them. I used it when I'm grumpy.
  
• The ROFLpult Need not say more, do I?
