Sorry, but those changes were unnoticeable.

I would really like PGI to at least try a buff of 15-25% to mediums' acceleration, deceleration and turn speed. Also all mediums should have better slope movement than a Cataphract, for crying out loud. Blackjack could actually use the small movement archtype along with Raven and Cicada. And yes, it needs engine size 250 or even 255.

Having the improved mobility on a Hunchie is nice -- the mech is harder to hit, and aiming while on the move is even smoother than it used to be. That being said, there really should be different maximum slope inclinations that mechs in different movement archetypes can scale. It is ridiculous that a light or medium mech gets stuck on, and can go up, basically the same hills as an Atlas.

As primarily a Black Jack pilot i have not noticed much improvement, i would have gotten far more out of deceleration/acceleration speed and lastly having to get that extra heatsinks really hurt the non BJ-1X versions. I think the upcomming weight restrictions and gauss nerf will have more effect then the current buff.

What? The Hunchy is one of the only properly sized mediums.
