3rdworld if you want to start a thread about a capacitance system or nerfing the PPC then start a thread. This suggestion/poll thread is about sized hardpoints. There are plenty of other threads you could be posting in instead of derailing this one.

The hardpoint system fixes problems that are not related to heat, or any particular weapon. A hardpoint size system is a tool that the devs can use to easily balance the game, add variety to mech builds, and prevent a host of future issues that will crop up.


I disagree that it will solve any of those issues. Thus my being here.

I can leave if you prefer to have a members only discussion.

Disagree.

Hardpoint sizes just shift the meta to mechs that come stock with larger weapons. It will destroy customization.

Example, with size based hardpoints, the most customization you could do to an Atlas would be putting a Gauss in for a AC/20. That is about it.

Your first post in this thread is the very definition of a strawman. You create an idea that did not even exist at this point and attack it.

You follow that up by telling another poster that they are not qualified to be in the thread, after you bring up PPCs (which are decidedly not hardpoints as far as I know)

This is a forum, and you are free to disagree. However, if you cannot respond directly and maturely when challenged to defend your stances, and you cannot stay on topic (which again, is hardpoints) then you need to leave the thread, as you have been asked to do before.

You have displayed repeated failure to follow these most basic rules of discussion; displaying at best ignorance of how to stay on topic and at worst an intentional derailing of an otherwise productive thread.

Get out.

Considering how, in real terms, little this actually does, no. It doesn't "butcher" anything outside of the dude ridgehumping with 5 PPCs. The head spread isn't much of an answer to the alpha meta when it only reasonably nerfs one good build (4ppc stalker) and leaves the majority of highlanders and 3Ds alone while only materially redistributing the stalkers damage, not really even reducing its DPS.


Don't need to reduce its dps. Just remove its ability to spam alphas. the highlander in question overheats from shooting its ppcs on CD around 3 times in a row. Assuming the mech is actually fighting, it will be like a 6 PPC stalker is today, unless it splits its shots, and thus spreads its damage.

So we're only materially considering the impact of the system on a single light mech now (the D) in order to push a system that only materially partially nerfs one single popular build and we're saying its ok across everything? Also, this doesn't do anything to boating (still).


How did I only consider the D? The F will be fine. Lights don't set there and spam over and over. Ballistic rewind has removed that ability.

Don't need to do anything about boating. In a situations were it is not that great, it will take care of itself.

How..? You lose a small measure of capacitance but the moment your heat cooling becomes equivalent to one round of alpha your damage actually increases. Losing a single ppc shot to avoid overheat once and then having your damage spread increase past 10 seconds isn't really going to hurt them very much.


They aren't chilling around at 0 heat. They will generate around 10 is heat per shot, and with an instant 25 ish heat per shot. Lowering their damage to targets en route + fewer alphas till overheat

Lets go over all the ways you're being an *****. Firstly, how about that 10 ML awesome you pulled out of thin air. If we assume a conversion rate of 7MGs to 1 ac10 that's a conversion rate of ~.5/2 tons. Ergo a "large laser slot" could hold ~1.25 medium lasers, this allows an awesome at its maximal capacity to hold ~8.75 mediums. But what if it had an ac20? Can that slot then hold ~9 machine guns? How is that even a conversion rate then, that pre supposes a final state to build the basis of its own equation.

And yet you're running with that nonsense like a little kid running with scissors poolside and making stuff up all along the way.


7 is the number of crits in an AC/10. The 10 MLs awesome takes this system ie, # of crits per type adds up 3 ppcs + 1 sls to reach 10 energy crit slots.

you cannot see the obvious, right in front of your face.

View PostShumabot, on 30 April 2013 - 08:37 AM, said:

I'll just restate the most common proposal.

There are two kinds of hardpoints, large and small and two kinds of weapons, large and small.

Large laser, PPC, ERPPC, Pulse/erLL = large
The rest of the energy weapons = small

A stalker has 2 large energy hardpoints on its flippers and the rest are small, ergo it can have two PPCs and numerous smaller backups weapons. An awsome has 3 large, ergo it can have 3 PPCs and numerous small weapons. This is the change that makes the "big arm gun" not a terrible detriment to a mech because it materially matters.

LRM 15/20, SRM6 = Large
Lrm5/10, streaks, srm2-4 are = Small

A cat A1 would have 6 small missile hardpoints allowing for numerous LRM5/10's or up to 6 SRM4's. Effective loss of two SRM6's from its previous 36 srm cap. This prevents LRM60 entirely.

Large scale ballistic hardpoints meaningfully prevent dual goose or ac40 catapaults with empty ears.


Makes the stock A1 impossible. Makes stock stalkers impossible.

Are you adding additional hardpoints or keeping it with stock weapons determining location and size? Ie the awesome has 3 ppcs. Are you just modifying some of the current hardpoint #s?

View PostShumabot, on 30 April 2013 - 08:37 AM, said:

It's cute that you've clearly never run into the idea of hardpoint sizes before and are pretending you know what you're talking about.


Keep projecting. This has been talked about before. It was a bad idea in CB and it is still a bad idea now.

View PostShumabot, on 30 April 2013 - 08:37 AM, said:

Then why are you here? The entire point of hardpoint sizes is to prevent homogeneity in builds through boating.


And it won't do that.

View PostShumabot, on 30 April 2013 - 08:37 AM, said:

Stop conflating boating and "firing their weapons". It makes you sound stupid. Anything firing a lot of guns overheats quicky, boating mechs will STILL BE BETTER during that interim period before overheat because their maximizing their dps, hitting in the most intended and precision areas, and have the best engine and heat tolerances for their specific conflict range.


So sticking 4 ppcs on a mech and firing them every once in a while is just as much of a problem as sticking 4 ppcs on my mech and spamming them in hill popping alphas?

and boating will STILL BE BETTER with hardpoint sizes. correct heat adjustments & weapon balancing will make it a non issue. Doing both would be silly, as it would only lower customization.

It's becoming clearer and clearer how much this is needed to prevent ridiculous boating. The Stalker was never meant to mount PPCs, the K2 was never meant to boat ballistics, etc., and the result is that a lot of 'mechs are becoming redundant. It's not bad. Not yet. But with as few 'mechs as we have now and as many will eventually be released, it's going to get worse quickly.

Why can a Raven mount the same AC/20 that a Hunchback can, but it doesn't have a huge hardpoint that everyone shoots for first? It's blatantly unfair to allow 'mechs to have all the advantages of large hardpoints with none of the drawbacks. The larger gun models are not enough - and even if they were, PGI plans to ramp up 'mech releases (plus, the Clans are coming eventually); how are they going to keep selling 'mechs if much of a chassis' uniqueness is diluted by redundancy?

I love all the Awesomes, and I run them whenever I'm not grinding. But they have a couple very niche roles they can shine in, whereas the Stalker is largely superior in most other respects. And it largely comes down to the lack of hardpoint sizes.

At first, the lack of limitations was good for diversity. Now, the more 'mechs they release, the worse things are going to get.

LRM 15s are large. It would not be possible. But hey, if you can't understand my position, I guess it would be too much to ask for you to understand your own.


Please read my last post where I stated that the developers could just give it 2 large and 4 small. In fact YOU TALKED ABOUT THAT EXACT THING IN YOUR LAST POST YOU TROLL. Stop suddenly suffering amnesia and forgetting what even you, yourself posted.

but now they can add artemis and are more heat efficient. Your system did a fine job.


Oh, the thing they were already doing with 6 SRM6's? Goody. More heat efficient? Clearly you didn't A1, that's not much of a concern, especially not in a post coolant world. They have lower DPS, that is all there is to this. You can not argue otherwise because you are fundamentally wrong and grasping at straws with your ONLY EXAMPLE.

Ad hominem. Pertty much explains all of your posts for the last couple of days.


Because you deserve to be mocked. You're entitled to your opinion, and I'm going to mock you for it when it's nonsensical whiny crap.

Some of you know that I recently decided to represent this issue in another thread. I would do so here as well, but I honestly can't even get a read on where the hell this discussion is, and who is on who's side. You've all lost your way. This thread needs to be buried, re-made, and retain some decorum on constructive debate.

Word. We need a new thread with 1 or 2 posters banned from it, they are seriously not helping the discussion in any way.

I started a new thread/poll that uses the information gathered from this thread and the others.

I like how straightforward this poll is. So far it's clear that hardpoint sizes aren't a polarizing issue, whatever that means.
