Too busy designing the 6 x ballistic Spider.

Please use the correct designation; the DEVASTATING 6 MG SPIDER.

imagine the
devastating effect
that a
6 MG spider
could do
to the back
of an Atlas!

And if that wasn't enough, just wait until you see his 3-second Jenner wingman.

I have been seeing this 3-second jenner and 6mg spider sh*t everywhere. SOMEONE EXPLAIN WHAT IT ALL MEANS!

I thought for toast they held up giant walls of bread to a Firestarter and used the flamers and then cut it into small pieces?

You're telling me we could toast our bread in a small metal box that could easily fit on a counter?!

I just put the bread in the fins of my heat sinks, just make sure you don't fire off to many ppcs in a row or it'll burn.

Being a machine operator I have actually cooked lots of things on engines over the years. Nothing like sausages hot off an exhaust manifold!

3-second Jenner came from the devs saying that 2.0 DHS would make a Jenner able to core an Atlas from behind in 3 seconds, at least if my memory serves.

In ATD #35, the devs said that they don't want to buff MGs because of the "devastating effect" a 6-MG Spider might have on the back of an Atlas:

CCQ 3: Why is Machine Gun damage so low?
A: Partly due to the nature of how MGs work in the TT rules, partially due to how we chose to make it useful. When equipping a MG, keep in mind that it is not meant to burn through armor but is very useful for tearing up internals (crits). Bumping MG damage will turn it into a laser that can be kept on with no heat penalty until it runs out of ammo. Now imagine the devastating effect that a 6 MG spider could do to the back of an Atlas! We are still investigating balance of the MG but don’t expect any significant increase in damage.

The 3-second Jenner was used as a reason why they set double heat sinks to 1.4 instead of 2.0, since a Jenner with all 2.0 heat sinks could apparently core an Atlas in 3 seconds.

The 6 MG line is from this week's Ask the Devs - Answers! to explain why they don't want to buff the MG. Because a 6 MG Spider would do devastating things to the back of an Atlas, apparently.

It's just dev stupidity, and we like to rub their noses in it.

The 4-second Jenner (not 3-second)

Really?

Mind = blown. 3-second Jenner rolls off the tongue better anyways.

...And it emphasizes the DEVASTATING EFFECT.

If that is your most important beef with the game you guys should be super happy campers. =)

Nah, you're right, I'm wrong. 3-second it is (and that's the second time I misremember. Dammit, I'm getting old...)

Ah, thank you fellas.

They can't implement spellcheck because of the devastating effect it would have on the rear armor of typos.

I shall sacrifice this thread!

Wouldn't he have needed six of them for that?

He'd be able to core an Atlas in 3 seconds if he used six!

Don't give him any ideas. It's a miracle all this thread's posts are intact given how effective mods are at crit seeking.
