Qurious: what you think will happen if the third person que or worse the third and first que outnumbers the others? What will be the cutoff point for the low number you think till they declare that those ques arent worth keeping?
Then we get to hear "that was our position at the time" again.

then i think it would be time for me to leave and take my money with me. I'm sure there are plenty of us that would leave if the only option was 3rd person, and PGI knows that

Just my opinion here, but if they really wanted to nerf High Alpha Builds, all they'd need to do is add HUD fade at high heat levels. Like in MW4, whenever your heat got above a certain level (75%, I think), it would flicker and flash, and basically become unusable. Getting hit by PPC fire would give it a wash of static.
Seeing as how these are Inner Sphere hand me down chassis, and not High Tech Clan fresh off the assembly line designs, have the HUD start to play up as soon as you run hotter than 50%. Have it die entirely above 75%, or flicker worse than strobe lighting at a party. Good players will be able to compensate. Bad players will learn to manage their heat, or QQ on the forums.
Another option is to have weapon fire hit the target according to its mounting point on the mech, with ONLY Arm weapons having convergence. Once again, Good pilots will be able to factor this in when lining up their shots.
Anyways. Just my thoughts on how to do it without any of the "Nerf Damage! Buff Heat! Give us Rotary Autocannons!"

PGI cannot even fix the HUD bugs and you want them to code a HUD that reacts to heat ????

Maybe if PGI hired some real programmers that could happen but with their current gang of fumbling hobos not a chance.

And didn't we all laugh about the thought of a 90t poptard? Who would want that? And how could this even work, a big target like that?

Well...I just had a few couple games after the patch and I gotta say I'm almost at the point of throwing this game off the pc.

Boats, for the most part. Large lasers and ppcs everywhere. And the former joke, the Highlander with 2 ERPPC and 1 Gauss as a poptard among them.

This game has now officially become a parody of the name "MechWarrior". My personal thanks goes to all those who actively worked to ruin this game for the old fans, those who liked the books and the older games. You are the best!

Word's getting around. Nearly every match I've dropped in today has been loaded with PPC boats of one kind or another. Kinda sucks since I really like brawling, but ah well.

While I agree with your post to an extent, this sentence makes me hate you. Damn new people coming into your IP and playing to win. What the **** is wrong with them? They're clearly all just doing it to ruin the experience for you and people like you.

You reek of unwarranted entitlement.
