But this poll will be deleted as my 1st, my 2nd, Lucys and countless others sadly.

I wonder how many people will vote before they've even tested anything.

[Gulinborsti]

Tested and approved.
There are some issues left to be addressed and some tweaking has to be done to make the new heat penalty mechanics viable, but my first impression is a good one

Mostly like it, but it's bringing out the LRM boats in bigger numbers than they've been since the LERMPOCALYPSE a while back.

[CancR]

If it means that MLs can go back down to 3 heat.

[Roadbeer]

I look forward to the QQing about the heat system from those who endlessly QQed about boating in the first place.


Oh yeah...

this is serious business and it needs a poll.

[B0oN]

Absolutely like it .

Heat system aside, most of the QQ'ing comes from ego-hurt regular posters unfortunately.

I don't like it because it is not very intuitive for anyone, even the experienced players. It does not make sense either. As far as gameplay goes, I am relatively unaffected, so I don't mind it on that end, but I think there are better solutions that make sense and solve other problems as well. I appreciate the effort from the devs to try and fix an issue we create for ourselves, but I don't like arbitrary and inconsistent rules.

[El Bandito]

No. It is overly complicated (especially for newcomers) and can be easily circumvented by smarter players.

I'm surprised so many people seem to like it.

I'm curious about what they specifically like about it?

Do they feel there is a difference taking an alpha from 3 PPC's and a Gauss vs. 4 PPC's?

I'm going to guess that they're the ones who don't know how the game works and therefore they don't know how to circumvent it; so they automatically assumes that it fixes the metagame just because PGI said so.

You are easily the most pathetic poster i've seen all day.

Stop quoting him, I have him on ignore for a reason, he went troll and never made it back.

...I dunno Fup, I guess that's it? Just seems weird to me. Alpha damage is no lower, and actually, we have more alpha damage since SRM's were bumped in damage.

I guess if you were dying regularly to 6 PPC stalkers, this patch would be a boon to you?

Well, the only people who die to 6 PPC Stalkers were in the underhive anyways (4 PPC or 2 PPC + 2 ERPPC are the only viable ones), so obviously people at that level of play don't yet know how to bypass the system. Because they don't know how to cheat the system, they assume it works. Because they think it works, they like it.

[Victor Morson]

$10 says every casual that votes yes is doing so because they are fighting other casuals that have adapted poorly.

I will admit it is amusing feeling like a God in games right now, because you can wade into the thick of their crappy designs and just murder them to death with PPC + Gauss that they think was hurt by this..

Exactly.

The games today have been so hilariously bad I've had time to explain this to people BETWEEN shots.
