How exactly does that heat scale multiplier work?

3rd ppc = 7 more heat in addition to it's 8 heat?

or

3rd ppc = 7*8 heat for 56 heat on the third ppc?

[Monsoon]

Bah, no Terra Therma, here's hoping we get it on the 30th.

[VagGR]

not bad at all....seismic is under investegatio for the 30th along with some other things like improvements on the arty/air strike....we all have our doubts about the heat scale system BUT its a step in the direction we all want ..balancing pinpoint alpha boats..so lets try it out before we start crying...

[hammerreborn]

So will people complaining about the streak changes and heat scaling numbers not being presented shut up now?

Hahahahaha who am I kidding they'll be in here to cry shortly or post a dozen threads sayin the same tired crap.

Amazing patch, the only thing that makes me sad is that it doesn't look like we're getting volcano til the end of the month, but I can wait.

PPC multiplier = 7.0
ERPPC multiplier =4.5

Whats this? Maybe drugs?

How long is the expected down time? I can't find it anywhere.

Yes this needs some clarification. Or testing...

Can´t wait to play the first round

Thanks PGI

I guess on the 30th they will be the same, so..

24 points of heat for a second AC 20 ?!

YAY no more flickering !

Animated cockpit items??? Which ones???? This is game changing OP! I mean, really, the Coconut Monkey was OP before, but now, need I even say it??

OK, yeah, they have bigger fish to fry, but little bits like this are fun! I really would like to know which items got the luv!

[Belorion]

I wouldn't have thought the AC-20 would have needed that much extra heat, but oh well.

Dual Gauss Jager?

My biggest question on the heat scale is what if we have 2 SRM 4's and 2 SRM 6's?

Seriously anyone know how this stuff actually works?

Im wondering this as well.... Although, since the ML and some missiles have a scale multiplier of 1... it cant be the last option.

7th medium laser = 4*1 heat is still 4....

Prepare to see many Pretty Babys and Atlas D-DCs today.

And Victors

[Scarcer]

While I'd like to see more content, I'm happy to see that PGI is optimizing the game with little details here and there.

Not at all happy about the heat scaling rather than actual foundational balance,

but I am very happy about the heat damage starting above 100%.

Now you just need to nudge LRM damage a little to compensate for viable AMS.

[JudgeDeathCZ]

no new map makes me sad panda.
Also fix the damn forums -.-

[MechFrog1]

It's still astonishing that you guys fell for that "the shake gives me motion sickness" line. The pop tarters have no problem playing the rest of the game that is constantly rocking with explosions and laser fire, but a little bouncing reticule leaves you with a queasy tumtum?

And the Number 1 awesome thing in this patch.

Heat Scaling – I’m not going to spoil this but go you should read up how it works in the patch notes. #gamechanger

Actually that's the number 1 most horrible thing in this patch if not the entire game.
