I don't know I just found it in the mechbay after a month, and I realized I just might have no reason to love her after this patch...

My last post might of sounded like a troll, but its not, anyone can poptart, but its not easy to poptart well.

So you haven't played it in a month, but this patch is what's going to make you stop playing....

Not sure how you fail to understand the words COCKPIT SHAKE IS NOT RNG But clearly you have. Oh well, the world is full of fail, yourself included.

UAC/5 jam mechanic: RNG
Cockpit shake: NOT RNG
But you still wont understand the difference.

Put it this way, you have a tesla roadster, ferrari on gas, and nice diesel truck.

You use the tesla almost exclusively. One day you get a mail from the energy department that there will no longer be diesel in your area. Did you commute with the diesel car every day? No. Would you be happy? Probably not.

Oh, and you can't get a refund for the thing either.

So you only bought it because you think it was the best mech and when you deem it not the best mech you think you're entitled to a refund?

The benefit of the heavy metal is that it's primary armament is all arm mounted.
No other highlander can drive 3 large lasers around with the same speed and range of motion as a heavy metal

Seriously, there were people complaining about it being P2W when the other highlanders came out because it had "better" energy hardpoints.

Since I'm curious where did you get that idea, I'll play along.

The one that rocks your reticule and camera when you lift off? Can you calculate the exact spot the crosshair will be ~0.5 second after hitting the space button? If not, its random by your point of view.

Depending how much the patch messes with my aim, there is a good chance I wouldn't of bought the HM if I knew whats gonna happen. Breaking the promise of not going down the RNG road didn't help either.

Yeah well I just hope it will have some proper use after all this alphastrike and JJ nerf dust settles down. It might be really good, it might not in the end.

Dude it should've been obvious, I can't believe you're serious about all this by the way.

[One Medic Army]

Yeah, it's a beta, expect balance changes.
Honestly they should be happening more often.

I get less and less certain about it myself. There's a fine line between greatest troll of all time and a really stupid post.

[John Clavell]

I don't think this is happening, but if it is I'm not sure I feel positive and in favour of supporting it. However, PGI have talked about a stacking rule that would effect mechs like the HM, 732, and such due to their PPC stacking. Seems like a better solution from what's been outlined on paper.

[MonkeyCheese]

My highlander 733p dosnt use ppcs and definitely aint useless.

2 LL, 2 LPL, 1ams, 1 lrm15, 2 streaks, bap.

Even without the elites I know I can still deal plenty of damage and be useful in a battle, Hell I could even swap out my 2 lpl for ppcs and join in on this meta while still having lots of backup weapons If I really wanted to (I dont)

[Stone Profit]

Because it is not random. Herpdaderp.
It is a set amount of shake.
Not a random amount of shake.
Herpdaderp.
Still, you cry because you cant poptart anymore.
And so somehow your mech is worthless.
But it has the same value as before.
You just abused a mechanic and now are angry they are making it so you cannot continue abusing it.
Herpdaderp.

The direction isn't random? What do you call shake? Can you calculate where it will be in any given time if it isn't atleast pseduo-random? You're a funny guy you know that?

[Stone Profit]

I DID know Im a funny guy. I get told that often.
I also understand when people rage because things change. It makes me laugh. And it isnt even pseudo random, as it is programed in how it will shake, not be random. Unfortunately for poptart losers, it wont be something that they can predict, as there will be multiple sets of data im sure. But please, continue to rage. Its making me smile.
PS Just because you cant calculate it does not mean it is random. It just means it is too difficult for you to calculate. A common misunderstanding among stupid people who dont understand what words mean.

Hahahahahahaha! The crybabys are hoping a nerf will stop my 733C from ruining your day.

Don't count on it. I will still ruin your day no matter what the devs do. I don't cry or whine. I adapt. Something most of you have no idea how to do. Instead you cry nerf it. I can't adapt. HELP US!. HELP!

[Keifomofutu]

I just ran a 3LPL 1Gauss 2SSRM build. Was actually pretty epic. I could even add endo and get her going a heavy class 63km/h.

If there are more data sets, do you know the sequence? Is the position of the cursor unpredictable from your point of view? Do you know if its pseduo random, random or just a pre-programmed unpredictable sequence? Would it change anything for you?

I really don't understand ppl complaining about changes till they actually happen. This also covers new mechs and what will and wont be good.
