god knows what would happen to me and my 25 ton commando if a jenner wasn't watching where he was going or in my cataphract with those low hanging arms knocking into everyone

They had some issues. Those working on the UI and CW are also responsible for fixing knockdowns. So we can guess by how well the new user interface works, how improved the knockdowns will be.

Btw, this is what would happen to your Commando if a Jenner wasn't watching where he was going.

well that looks like a pain in the *** to deal with, and im pretty sure that first jenner didnt even actually touch you, just your hit box

what are the chances of staying 1st person view when knockdown is put back in??

for how long were you aiming at the torso? did you just pass by and shoot or where you aiming there for a bit of time
also keep in mind at 10-20m a jenner is bound to miss sometimes since its weapon arent on arms and cant be aimed to the left or right very well, hindering their ability to converge, and was the big x aimed at the rear torso or was it just the little circle?

The funny fact is I was born and raised in a red neck area of Florida. Big red trucks with giant wheels. Trailers lining the streets in town and in the countryside. A shotgun above every father's bed. And I still fail at the accent! I think 2 / 3 came out better, as I went for more of a Jim Varney's Ace Worrell impression. Those were still fairly bad though. It's why I gave up on 'em.

Now THAT video.

That Jenner versus Commando collision, and consequent Commando's fall is what I want, just without Need for Speed undergound camera. Just silly.

No his lasers are on the arms.


But that makes sense to me now, you guns come up to about the catapults hip area and at close range they could just be having trouble converging to the upper parts. Also a catapult has a fairly big head hit box but it is located on the top of his torso for the most part so you would have trouble hitting it from below. Don't forget about your Jump jets, use them to get a better angle if you are going for headshots.

lol how the heck does that happen? then you have people like my dad, only one in his family with a country accent for no apparent reason, born in Kentucky but thats about it lol

maybe you should try being drunk THEN doing the accent, might help you get that slur goin'

well yes they are on "arms", but they cant aim to the left or right do to lack of actuators

who wants to play a game where everything is so half assed that you can't even get headshots shooting people in the head?

the kind of people that dont want matches to end 2 quickly and dont want themselves to die quickly, because of everything having the same weak armor in one easy to hit spot, with out the option to respawn because they like no respawn, and if you know where to aim for (just said where to aim for so you clearly do) why are you complaining something you know isnt the cockpit isnt the cockpit, since it doesnt matter to you any way, if you know thats not the actual cockpit dont expect to be the cockpit and dont shot it! if the phracts entire cockpit window was counted as the actual cockpit, no one would play it, heck, this whole game would change to being pick the mech whos the hardest to head shot in its weight class, and who wants to kill variety like that???

this game is not made to make perfect sense, its made to entertain and create a fun, fair, and balanced environment for people to go stomping around in with their giant robots

Then don't point your cockpit directly at another mech for too long. Problem solved. I'm tired of the game being dumbed down just because people can't pull their heads out of their ***** and learn to play this game well. **** the COD generation.

you were just talking about how its hard to hit cockpits but you know where to shoot and where not to shoot, but you shoot there anyway, now your saying dont point your cockpit at people for to long then problem solved, and you say your tired of the call of duty generation when i said people playing this game are the complete opposite and like not having respawn and want strategy involved in the game, wtf???? most people playing this game arent even part of that generation

lol dude if the cockpits where easy to hit, i dont think you would be able to quickly look away considering how easy it is to do 33+ damage instantly, a stock awesome 8 q would be able to kill you in .75 seconds with in 100m with out any damage already done

and how is making cockpits harder to hit dumbing the game down??????????????

I'd be okay with a CT hit, cause I got like 3-4 alphas at it (24dmg each), which would render Catapult's CT almost dead (or actually dead, being back shots really). Yet I don't think I delivered any substantial dmg, because I kept hitting the legs somehow. I should have probably been going for the heatshot, and then I would've ended up with 100% CT hits. God knows....

About 3 seconds, both me and the enemy being stationary. I mean I really wanted to get a hit at the center mass, but somehow got the legs instead. Knowing that, I am now specifically aiming at the legs, and guess what - I hit the legs 100% of the time. For some reason, lasers tend to be my favorite weapons and I get 90% hits on average, according to stats, so it cannot be about aim. Unlike all other weapons. I do worst with LRM - somewhere at 26% hit rate. And they say PPC boaters are the problem...

[MadCat02]

it used to be too easy to hit cockpits . Now its just plane luck cuz hit boxes are too small
