What have you learned from the huge discussion going on in the

huh, so no attention to seismic?

No SRMs buff?

Nothing about hit detection?

Well, see ya all in July

Hmm, I might try a MG spider for fun, but otherwise this game is still alphawarrior Online and I'm staying away from it.

I guess I remembered Quickdraws as missile boats for some reason. Guess they are laser boats instead.

I bought Seismic yesterday thinking "Ah well, I'll try it before the nerf", cracks me up that they didn't touch it.

I love some of the jokes in this post. There's a few. Defintily gave me a good laugh when I was reading the flavor text before the patch notes.

Jump jet fix?????

Only played a JJ mech once since the change and I would like to see the effect halved but otherwise I think it's great.

Wrong. Pulse Laser Fix is going to be a Big Effen Deal. Small pulse lasers are actually worth something now.


And large pulses are now absolutely terrible (instead of kind of terrible). So treading water, I guess.

To be honest, I (naively) expected more content considering there are not many more patches left until "official" release and there's still a looooot left to deploy. This means more potential problems loaded into each patch and less time to fix them.

Considering how weapon balance can be tweaked by altering a few numbers and watching the sparks fly, the lack of SRM changes is especially egregious.

jesus..what is it going to take for you guys to just increase the PPC heat....good patch...but its frustrating to see nothing about the PPC alpha fest out there...i know you are working on your heat scale formula but why not just try something simpler first...anyway..nothing changed, im gonna buy me a quickdraw and forget about all this..

There's a pretty good shot I might not play because of a certain basketball game.

Where the hell is the streak nerf that was promised to be implemented "in the first patch of June"?
http://mwomercs.com/...vs-38-answered/ "This tuning adjustment will go live in the first patch of June."

Where the hell is the SRM buff?

Where the hell is the Seismic nerf?

Where the hell is the reduced JJ shake/shake based on weight class?

Where the hell is the hit-detection fix?

Oh, phew, at least they nerfed Large Pulse Lasers. All those Large Pulse Laser boats were ruining everything!

You literally managed to accomplish next to nothing on a perfectly-timed patch day when several very important issues are well-known and easily fixed. This is so...incredibly...frustrating.

No fixes this month? No money from me either.

what's with this "max engine" stuff?
IS LPLs DO suck! so they SHOULD suck... (keep in mind, that short burst DOES mean a lot more damage in a smaller spread)
Hit Detection... PLEASE

Can you please explain why Seismic Sensor was not tweaked, as stated it would be? Also, there was supposed to be a hit detection improvement to return it to May 21st levels.

Also disappointed to see you made the LPL worse, and didn't bump SRM damage any like you did LRM damage last week. Is this game really supposed to still launch on September 21st?

I think what everyone is looking forward to is the boating heat fix. . . PPC/Alphawarrior is getting old real fast.

Not to mention hit detection. . . in response to which I've taken to running twin lb/10s because they produce about the same result as twin gauss in the armor stripping department anywhere inside 400m.
(exaggerating a bit there, but honestly it's not far off.)
