Please move the ECM slot for the D-DC to the centre torso. It's getting in the way of my missile systems.

Yes, I know that is why they did it, but it is a bad choice.

Which of the other ECM mechs are affected this much?

[Jam the Bam]

Finally gives you a reason to use the other Atlai? It should be a tradeoff to use something as powerful as ECM.

[twibs]

Oh wee, like we ever placed it anywhere BUT CT before the change. It's called balancing.

[Mechteric]

Being in the CT made it nearly impossible to destroy before destroying the mech, its simply better for balance in the side torso.

Examine Exhibit A: http://goodsects.got...te/pdf/5043.pdf

If the game survives long enough, we might see a CT version: http://goodsects.got...te/pdf/5037.pdf

It doesn't really matter if you put it in the CT (which I think is a bad idea, unless you stuff DHS into the 275+ engines).. ECM comes off easily.

Any ECM nerf hurts Atlases the most... you will have to deal with it.

YOU CAN STILL PUT 3 SRM6s IN THERE

oh wait SRMs don't do any damage, sorry man.

Guess you should just hop into an LRM STK-3F like me (ad everyone else) and rack up the no aim\skill\thought kills till they balance this garbage!

My STK just went over a 6.0 KDR!

NICE!

I'll just stop using it after they nerf LRMs and save the amazing stats to brag about once the game is balanced

Heaven forbid we give mechs like the MG spider a reason to exist (depleting back armor, then destroying the ECM).

Um, how about the leg? I thought the CT was a good compromise actually.

[Deathlike]

I'd vote for unrestricted placement (well, it was anywhere but the arms, which was fine), but that's not an option, so NO.

[Corvus Antaka]

ridiculous

[Vassago Rain]

It's getting in the way of everything, while something like the raven 3L doesn't suffer any ill effects.
So can those of us who stick to the atlases get a fair and balanced approach, or will you gimp all the other ECM mechs similarly?

[Curccu]

Well DDC shouldn't even have ECM in first place.

Well, jenners shouldn't have 300 rated engines in the first place.
