PGI staff. I like a lot about the movement changes just implemented but submit that jump jets must have at least a small forward/reverse thrust vector capability under the new system. The idea of having jets that are only usable to go straight up is not workable IMHO. Heavies and Assaults especially become unreasonable to justify equipping them. You get stuck on terrain way too often for what the intent of having jets in the first place is. Also there are small terrain features hanging up or stopping even assault mechs, which can be very frustrating. The rules need changed so that a pebble doesn't stop your Atlas dead in its tracks(minor exaggeration IKR?) Thanks for your perseverance in attempts to improve the game.

Aye, Jump Jets in the game need more attention.
Not enough upper thrust and little benefit gained from maxing JJ amount on a mech aside, please, please PGI, give us some thrust control.
At the very least, some forward thrust while holding W so we can better deal with the lovely new movement system and hills.
