Not a chance
- a premium Mech with ECM - even when there is allready a Free Atlas with ECM - will be a invite for the trolling folks

They should have given it ballistics on both torsos. Its way too similar to the RS, just my opinion. Just switching the ballistic from one side to the other and adding a couple energy points doesnt warrant the cost to be honest. Although I am an Atlas fanatic and will probably waste the money just to get the chassis.

Like others have mentioned, if cost effectiveness is what youre looking for, buy a Misery it makes more sense.

Regards

It's genius if you think about it, have the Hero Atlas with ECM then nerf ECM a month later ;)

Well i had the same idea - regarding tonnage limits:

the UAC 5 was about to get nerfed - and there was a Ilja and FireBrand sale

I'm not sure about other nerfs in the Past and the sales and Heromechs before (but i have the feeling that i have seen similar - Protector -> Gauss???

so lets hope the Hero Atlas will have ECM

  • AS7-D Atlas Danielle - Piloted by Wolf's Dragoons Captain Danielle Rondema, this modified Atlas carried three medium lasers in each arm, trading away the SRM rack to do so. The additional heat was dissipated by two additional heat sinks that replaced the rear-firing medium lasers. BV (2.0) = 1,976[32]
Couldn't they have at least gave credit to the original Pilot???

I don't ever really post on the forums although I do lurk a lot. I am not a huge fan of the way PGI is implementing hero mechs. I am not going to go as far as to say they're P2W but I don't agree with selling variants of mechs with exclusive hardpoints. Ideally, PGI would release their hero mechs for MC and then 2-4 weeks later they'd release a stock c-bill version that only comes with the hardpoints.

All I can say is it better have some pretty severe downside, because if its just a way better RS thats blatant pay-to-win. Maybe not an extreme case of pay-to-win, but pay-to-win nonetheless.


It is called:

PAY-TO-WIN-C-BILLS Otherwise it takes you like 10 matches to make a mill.

We could use a 4-missile hardpoint one to complete the set ;)

PEEF posted a suggestion about a Raven and Jenner hero, and then of course there's the 6 MG Spider. Imagine the damage it would do to the back of a Boar's Head :(

i would actually prefer the variant with the AC in it.... i think that 3 missile hps on such a tiny mech are really enough ;)

I was just thinking that we have all combinations but the 4-missile one:
4 energy
3 energy/1 missile
2 energy/2 missile (x2)
1 energy/3 missile

Seems logical (or at least it satisfies my OCD) to have a sixth Commando be a 4-missile variant ;)

you might need to get counseling for a severe case of commando-addiction. Sane people do NOT drive commandos!
