You Fatlas Pilots finally get some love. Thing looks like a monster. Have fun with it because I am going to be shooting the {Scrap} out of it if possible.


Yeah, nice to finally see another assault hero mech. This brings the total of assault and heavy heroes to just ten, while the light pilots are practically drowning in them with a whole 1 hero mech, and on the least popular chassis to boot.

Running an XL in an Atlas has a lot to do with your ELO range. In the mid range its not that bad if you use cover and torso twist to spread damage. And the extra speed etc of a 400 will make that more effective.

Lights mechs make them less money so they make less of them. Supply and demand :)

so only way I use an 400 in one is to build it to use a Standard. All that "agility" ain't worth it when you are that big a target , if they pop a torso and bang, dead.

AS7-RS
After you add the other 2 Medium lasers, 10 tons left to play. Thing is you will probably need most of that in heatsinks.

Get back 36 tons with an XL, but sorry, only crazy people run XL Atlases.


hehe

Would it surprise you to know I run an XL in my Atlas?

Of course I run x2 ER larges, Gauss, LRM20, x2 SRM6's and just sit back and play it chill sniping until i'm needed.

And when i'm needed it's either clean up or Alamo time.

its hurting them in the reviews too. people see a single mech in a F2P game costing almost 40 dollars. They're going to have something to say about it.


I must have missed the part where it said every player was required to buy this mech? Don't want it? Don't want to pay for it? Easy.....don't get it. Feel free to get out of my way so I can give them my money.

Been waiting and hoping for an Atlas HERO for months, it's long overdue......and yeah, the only reason they didn't do this sooner was because there really isn't an issue getting people to drop in Atlasi.

And if this means weight limits are just around the corner........no worries.


And yeah, as said before, it's not greed to want to earn money. No one is forcing you. Grab a dictionary and look up free trade capitalism and just let the market decide if this mech is viable and priced right. Better yet, look up Anarchism.....LOL

Hopefully this means that Atlai will be getting variable weapons geometry like the current gen mechs

An XL in an Atlas is suicide... Remember when the Atlas-K was a trial mech..??
I do, and I remember having to fight my friends off to get a shot at one, they were like free candy.

Oh you moved more armor to your front side torso..?? No biggy I just took out your rear left torso. :)

I feel PGI it's hesitant to release a big ballistic Assault specially when it means a large part of the Tryhards will go for the 2x Ac 20 without drawbacks mech.

Still i'm curious for the exact ballistic and missile hardpoints in the torsos but y expect 1of each total


That's the main reason why I doubt we will ever see an annialator.

Free Trade Capitalism: A geopolitical system observed to fail fairly spectacularly in the early 2010s.

Anarchism: A political philosophy the modern form of which coalesced in the 1790s and is of no relevance at all to the moral relativity of greed or sale of goods, having no inherent opinion on either value or trade and is thus entirely irrelevant to the discussion of monetary recompense appropriate to the provision of Internet Space Robots.

And the name of the Mech was what? "Ghost Heat" Oh cool name.


That's great thanks for reminding me. I unplugged my computer from the wall. This is the mech ive been waiting for. Does ghost heat stay the way it is now or is it still subject to change?... Like the day after I buy this thing with my luck >:)

OMG what a pack of {Noble MechWarriors}. Three pages of them (you all know your names they are posted).

Let me restart the only name for this FAIL MECH is Ghost Heat. LOOK at the play rules this "game company" has put down this as the worst Mech ever and you are going to pay REAL MONEY for it!?! What moron would PAY (real money) for a Mech that is MARKED with Ghost heat?

To the oblivious game company.

Sir's
If you could STOP selling us "lemon Mech's" That do not suffer Ghost Heat or other corporate imposed "Balancing" perhaps you may get to the top of the MMO PVP game list.

Ah but you dont what that do you?
If you did you would have it. However you decided to make thirty years of gaming yours. Remember what you do here reflects on you as a gaming company and if you fail you may get the reputation of a "fail company" and never succeed in anything. Never forget we all know the rules of this game. So dont play us "game company". We Know the rules to this.

Predict fail game selling rights soon.

@Stormlight: You're not getting the Fafnir. TFB. if you bothered to check, the Fafnir Chassis doesn't even exist for like 15-20 YEARS in the timeline of the game lore...even if they do a timeskip, it's still going to be years before we'll see a Faf around.
