OK, so call me old fashioned, but I still rely on the official forums for all my MWO news.

Could someone (PGI would be my first choice but I know that's not gonna happen) please repost the announcement about the announcement and the announcement about the delay of the announcement that were posted on twitter today. I'd like to be at least as poorly informed as everyone else.

Thanks in advance,

Wizard Steve.

What I would like to see is the Announcer of the Announcement Announced so he can be Renounced publicly via an Announcement made by an Announcer of our choosing starting with this questionable Announcement.

It made me laugh though, thinking about how much delays you have to cope with to even make your announcements delayed.

Unless it's something about community warfare or 12 vs 12s (which it probably isn't either..), I don't really see how it's worth getting worked up over.

More concept art or another bobblehead isn't going to change any of my feelings, be them good or bad, towards the game.

It is just gonna be art crap.
How can you "think" you are going to release art crap in 2 hours and fail at that?

Wednesday April 24th, for Immediate Release:

"PGI are happy to announce the winners of the Assault vs. The World competition. On an unrelated note, LRMs now automatically track jump jet exhaust at a bonus speed and damage proportional to the jet's class rating. Obtaining missile lock is optional."

Emergency Hotfix for 4-24:

- Streak Missiles and Long-Range-Missiles can no longer be fired while under the effects of ECM, even if that ECM is your own.

- Vertical Jump Jet Thrust has been reduced 40% for 'mechs heavier than 50 tons.

- When a 'mech is in midair, there is a small amount of targeting cursor shake proportional to the 'mech's tonnage.

- Speed cap has been removed for all 'mechs.

- Long-Range-Missile flight speed has been increased by 20%. Damage is unaffected by this change.

- Short-Range-Missile damage has been increased by 5%, and missile grouping has been tightened by 5%.

- Firing multiple weapons of the same type now generates exponentially more heat than before. Weapon heat increased by 10% for each additional weapon of that type fired in an "alpha" strike.

- Weapon Accuracy is now negatively impacted by firing multiple weapons of the same type. Convergence speed is delayed by 2% for each weapon fired of the same type.

- 'Mechs are now damaged by overheating. For every two seconds a 'mech spends overheated, it takes 5 damage to internals.

And then I awoke...
