It's been reported that JJ thrust has been nerfed again. Can anyone verify?

Thrust is not nerfed, thrust while moving up mountainsides or attempting to mount objects is severely reduced due to "walkspeed reductions" on inclined surfaces. Unfortunately, this causts most JJ'd mechs to get stuck on the edges of buildings they are trying to land on, making them immobile until they turn around and walk back off the way they came.

Did you get the resized weapon geo on the BJ's arms? The size of the PPCs has been reduced. Can't speak for other weapons on other mechs at this time, however....

[General Taskeen]

Lulz, the PPC and AC's sounds are unimpressive.

The founders paint effect for the Jenner is horrible unless you use really bright colors. Otherwise it looks like a gunmetal light grey for the entire match.

ELO might have a bug or been reset there were a lot of sweeps after the patch

The heat bloom maps the the Dev. team worked on are worthless because you can still climb most peaks in alpine in a light, medium, and heavy as long as you stick to the snow.

Canyon if you pick the right spots you can angle shimmy your mech up the slopes.

Don't stand to close to a mech or you ear drum will blow out when they fire.

weapon convergence might have a bug because there's been a lot of real accurate shots to left and right torso.

The heat effect for alpha strike's so far has done nothing to effect the game I took my Black-Jack out into the desert with 3 large lasers and 4 m lasers. on double heat-sinks and I was fine I had no issues with heat.

Oh the camo bug is still operational and also the target bug is still in play we blew up a catapult, and we were still able to target him plus the match didn't end.

All in all your not going to see much change in gameplay when you battle. For a 3 hour patch it was pretty unimpressive.

I noticed this too. My gauss rifle is smaller.

Remember, it's not the size it's how you use it!

I lost it at the Airline Attendant.

Oh christ that hit me harder than a 6 PPC stalker saying "Hi" to my Jaeger. XD

[Stoicblitzer]

What? I can't hear you. Please speak up. My ears are bleeding from firing my weapons.

AND IT IS AWESOME.

[TheGreatNoNo]

I find the new PPC sound to be funny as hell, spent a match just chain firing two erppcs over and over (did not waste the match though) but I do not think "THWANG"is the right sound for the PPC.

[Raso]

So..... LBX. Has anyone else noticed that starting at around 120m to 90m you can land almost all of the pellets onto a single armor section on most heavy and assault mechs? Is this new?

Uhh...you do realize they specifically said, and even made a rhyme for, the fact that in alpine if there's snow, you can go.

[Mister Blastman]

I spotted one of these today...

[Victor Morson]

I noticed my Trebuchet is moving a few kph faster than it used to. Just a few. I have no idea at all why.

[hammerreborn]

Onyxia deep breaths more often.

[Monky]

Pro tip: Guns are loud. So is lightning. Go figure. Adjust your volume sliders if it's too loud for you.

Blackjack had some of its weapons resized by a drunken canadian, Gauss is now smaller than AC2, AC10 is larger then AC20, PPCs shrank, UAC5 went from the most epic looking weapon on a BJ to being the same size as a machinegun, so it looks more like a UAC2 at best. Dunno if other mechs might have got weapon changes, but the BJ ones are pretty stupid.

[Blue Hymn]

Noticed that there is some hit detection problems with ppcs. Don't know about you, but not being able to get that shot in when you REALLY, REALLY need it sucks. D:

Haha, scaling is epic funny in this game.

Check out this better scale of PPC's on a Blackjack, hoooah!



These sounds are pretty good from their original concept, especially the muffled sounds inside the cockpit:

With JJ change is tarting feasible again?
