Don't fire them all at once. Problem solved. Stop pretending alpha strike is the only way to shoot.

So I should stagger the fire of my weapons after I've spent all match ducking dodging the PPC/Gauss snipers and finally managed to get in range of one of the enemy mechs who have picked off a teammate and my team desperately needs to have some of the pressure taken off them so we can keep from getting snowballed by focusfire dual PPC/Gauss times twelve?

Remind me again what the #idiotheatwankery was supposed to do, and what it has not done?

Seriously, Daily Rewards?!?!?!???

Can we not keep the crap from every common mmorpg out of this game...

******* IGP piece of **** publishers leave this game alone.

Is Golden Boy named after the anime with the same name out of curiosity? It's geeky enough to be true.

The good:

12 v 12. PPC heat is closer to original numbers now, which is good.

Pulse duration reduced, which is also good.

The mentioning of TONNAGE limits makes me a very happy person right now.

The Bad:

only 4-man and 12-man, no in between. It was originally planned that when 12 man's go in, you could either go 4-man, 8-man, or 12-man, and the 4 and 8 man would be populated with other players to equal 12.

This makes me very disappointed. Seriously, how is it you can do some things totally great, and totally miss the mark on other things?

12v12!
Tonight's Scamble on the NA Com star TS channel just got a whole lot crazier!

We had over 40 people in last week's scramble. Y'all welcome to come and join in the fun.

12 v 12, more like 0 v 12 at end of game, "GG CLOSE."

[TELEFORCE]

Really hoping hit detection is improved, despite not being in the patch notes.

It is the only way to shoot if you have any clue how to brawl. The goal of any brawler is shoot in one concentrated shot, then spend your weapon cooldown times torso twisting to block incoming damage with your arms and side torsos to prevent getting cored. Staying facing your target ti **** damage in chainfire is an excellent way to play dumb and get slaughtered by anyone who knows what they're doing.

It determines what degree slope the mech can traverse without slowdown.

Oh that's right, forgot about that. I figured this was a reference to the "agility increases" they've talked about for mediums, but your spot on with the slope degree thing.

[Sharp Spikes]

Nothing about hit detection. It will be Hilarious (yah, with capital 'H') if the game will be released with hit detection in it's present state.
And forcing people to stagger-fire SRMs is on absolute top of all things that must be done, of course. That sca-a-ary SRMs dominated over everything on the battlefield for far too long, right?

yeah because earn double XP in a chassis it's totally unrelated.... i mean it's so evil force ppl leveling some mechs into another match instead give a false sense of achievement?

If so, they missed the best robot anime ever, FFS.

No, not the euphemistic "For [redacted] Sake", Five Star Stories, the best robit anime to ever uguu your kawaiis.

[Dr Hieronymous Alloy]

So is there any intent or plan to increase Mech Armor proportionally now that 12v12 is in? It's bad enough getting lit up by four mechs at once; getting lit up by 12 mechs at once is going to turn matches into a popcorn machine simulator.

[Chronojam]

Oh Garth you are such a joker! Please post the real patch notes now, we're waiting! The ballistic hit detection is improved and the ghost heat is removed, right? I've got seven guys here and we'd like to try playing, it's funny you implied we'd need to find four more to be able to drop together anymore, a good joke.

[AdamBaines]

Cant wait to check this out tonight. We are getting closer ........ :-)

[Big Giant Head]

Why does LBX have ability to do critical damage, I mean why cant AC/2 do that its ballistic as well

You mean the grind reduction that most players like that also keeps players coming back day after day, helping keep the game populated. Yes, you're right, they should get rid of that....

...and yes, I know it's a hook mechanic to try and keep people playing everyday, but it's also to the betterment of the player base, so I'm cool with it.

[Silverfang22]

Yes, this is an amazing patch! I look forward to when the servers go back up
