Boy I am glad I only wasted 120 bucks on this. PGI should hire Smedely from SWG to do their PR work.

I like this patch! Medium mechs forever!

Oh, and 3rd person view. My vanity cam. Thanks!

To be fair, was Sarah actually playing the game herself or just watching her dad play?

According to her dad she piloted the mech and loved streak missiles.

3sp crap is bugged too, crosshair does wierd things in 3sp wenn you move up and down + you are not instantly in the center when you switch back to 1sp.


Who the hell does your testing? This shows at the very first time you switch views.

Ghost heat, C-bill nerf and now the 3rd person view LIES! At what point do we stop giving these people our money?

For me that point is now.

I'm not arguing whether the increase makes the 'mech better. I'm just saying it violates all of the mathematical rules for max engine size. It is literally the only 'mech in the game now which breaks them, which is annoying, and will make the rules harder to understand for people when choosing engines for their builds, and sets a precedent for every single chassis having a different max engine size based on whatever PGI feels like with no rhyme or reason to it at all. That's my problem with it.

It might and might not. When you buy a mech, does it show the max engine size in the box? I think it does, can't remember, will have to look.

For those who are still in doubt, third person has autoaim that snaps to targets.

Enjoy, mechwarriors.

try it first.

Then ***** and moan.

Ok, fair point.

Tried it, don't like it.



Now, does anyone know the reason for not implementing the different queues this patch? I don't intend to play this game again until I can choose.

[Arc Viper]

I'm open-minded and am going to give 3pv a chance before I start complaining about it.

Love the buffs to medium mechs because I mainly pilot a BJ.

[General Kefka]

HMMM I believe it would be easier if everyone /uninstall instead of patching...I know I will. 3rd Person is intended for ease so children can play. If i wanted to play with children i would be playing Wii Lego games...or Xbox... next update coming - Controller support! Now i am forced to play in 3rd person to have advantage like everyone else? No thanks...hope your son enjoys the game...and has a credit card to fund it....

No, they were a little OP. If you played with them, you'd know. My CDA-3C was litterally melting stuff off mechs left and right in fractions of seconds.

Yep, I went back to mechs like my Raven 4X (that I put a gauss rifle on) and put the MG back on because they were killer once armor was stripped away. This feels like maybe it's dialed back a little to far, but we'll try it some more I guess and figure it out.

Give us the Hardcore mode!!! The Buttons are there, please give them a function

I like the balance adjustments. Sure the SSRM2 does more damage than the SRM2, but id say, the SRM2 just needs its fire rate upped and this will balance out. Reducing its cooldown to a flat 3 seconds, to alpha and cycle with Mlas, would give it a real niche. SSRM2 were needed some buff from where it was. I know this will get the SRM2 fans mad, but really, who was using these? SSRM2 were better, except in weight, before this change. The difference was so small, i chose which one i wanted based on whether i wanted the lockon reticule to display or not. Only SRMs worth taking prior to this was SRM4 and SRM6.

LBX and medium torso changes are also very good. I didnt get to play 3pv, so i dont have any good/bad feelings about this. Although i am happy to be able to see my paint schemes. I didnt play mechs with more than 3xMGs, they didnt do enough damage to boat on fragile Jaegers, so i dont know if this change is too much or not. Hopefully this nerf doesnt make them totally useless.

Love the torso changes to Mediums. But i wish my cicada had gotten +15% twist speed. Looking forward to this patch all in all.

Don't want to disappoint you, but I'm absolutely 100% sure they buffed streaks just to sell their brand new HERO A1.
Without this damage buff nobody will buy it.

[Mordynak]

Ha, some people are complete morons.

Boycott MWO until they remove third person? Yeah.... genius.

Also, PEOPLE WANT THIRD PERSON!

ALSO! IF YOU DONT WANT TO PLAY AGAINST PEOPLE WITH THIRD PERSON YOU HAVE A CHOICE NOT TOO!!

ARRRRRRRHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WHATS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE!

Im sorry but i cannot beleive how idiotic people are. There is literally nothing here to dislike. Get a grip ffs.

[Trev Firestorm]

Just noticed that instead of fixing the actual cause of the AC/2s broken heat stacking penalty they just upped the recycle, which probably didn't fix it at all but I won't be testing this until 1pv only is in place.

[PropagandaWar]

Oh and when you guys Nuke my Sp's Right and Left torso. I'll still be standing. I'm not that stupid.

right
Because PGI has an excellent track record of listening to our feedback.....

Just because they do not do what you demand does not mean they are not listening.

[General Taskeen]

Some of the bug fixes are definitely welcome, that's as far as I'll comment. Getting stuck on Therma was annoying. I remember when the game was a buggy mess in closed beta, definitely not as much anymore.

[Appogee]

Ok, so I just discovered the ''hardcore'' buttons too.

Would it be too much to ask for PGI to explain if/when they are going to honor their commitment to enabling 1PV players to not have to compete against 3PV players...?!

Who knows, an explanation may go some way to addressing the perception that PGI basically lied to their customers about something many of their customers felt was important.
