I do have to sympathize with the light pilots that use mechs with JJs. The lights and mediums were not really a problem but because so many people wanted to exploit JJs by making these large and assault poptarts... You caused other to QQ and the QQing caused the DEVS to try and fix the problem and now everyone with JJ (poptarts or not) have to deal with it.

don't really know about the mediums, but my light mechs did just fine today while i flew around with my jump jets, although it would be nice if i got hung up on rocks less (i got trapped out of bounds on a cliff face for a brief time because of the clipping).

Ok, I have mixed feelings about this. On the first hand, its great seeing the pop tarting going away. But..... The screen shake is making me nauseous. To fix this, they need to simulate screen shake with the weapons and tone down screen shake on the screen. Balance it just right and the people who dont abuse mechanics will be happy. The abusers will always complain though lol.

(not that I'm advocating making it more shakey)

But I would use them, to get up hills and on top of buildings.

You mean how in tabletop when you used JJ you couldn't hit for ****, and same here.....and you are complaining why?

JJs are for maneouverability and nothing more.

Signed for reducing it for lights.

Stop using JJs. Problem solved.



Simply amazing how simple that solution was.

Im a spider LASER pilot, this has nothing to do with crying about ppc/gauss poptarts..

And as I said in my thread it makes me want to throw up, by just simply flying over a wall.

The first two posts and their respective number of likes says it all...

[Dantiger]

I sincerely didn't saw any difference when jump sniping

[PEEFsmash]

Get rid of it, please, at least for lights.

[El Bandito]

Let the poptarts burn!

There are almost as many mexican jumping beans with ppcs out there in the under 40 ton class, so no.

In that case, I apologize for my outburst. If I am not mistaken they are going to adjust the lighter mechs accordingly. Hang in there for a bit and PGI will sort things out in time.

What kind of petition doesn't have a poll? -1 to this poorly concealed JJ tears thread.

[One Medic Army]

So I just played a couple matches with my Treb7M.
3 arm lasers, 3 streaks, XL325, and 5jets.

All you guys saying Jumps are worthless now are full of crap.

That is all.

My Highlander is also doing just fine with it's 4jumps, 2PPCs, and AC/20.

It's way too much. Might as well remove JJ from the game.

[TungstenWall]

I think JJ shaking MUST stay in game, but I think it should shake over a bigger area with less speed. Despite the screen shaking, players should still be able to react when the reticule falls on a target during a shake, unlike now where it is near impossible to process the insane speeds.

hell no! don't you dare take away my jump jets. they are most of what my close combat gameplay relies upon. i played today with my jenner and it was glorious.

[Diablobo]

It is obvious the QQ of the poptarts is not doing any good. For every po'd poptart, there are 5 skilled players who love to see them suffer.

Holy crap....we can't say poptar duh. If we type in the poptart with a d spelling, it automatically forces it to say poptart.

LAME, WEAK. And bunch of pu$$y bullcrap. Grow a pair, PGI.

I fixed my jump jets by removing them from all my mechs and replacing them with Double Heat Sinks and more LRMs.
