About the atlas changes. Does this mean that the atlas's weapons on any every variant but the founder variant has a different visual graphic in the mechlab? You know, like the jaeger and highlander?

I believe so. That could be cool to see.

It would be nice, when PGI says "We need 15 minutes" or 1 hour or 2 hours.
So I can wait or I can go to bed now.

Second shot?

Lots of times it's after the first shot.

Good for you, Mr Snowflake.

Here's a bit of knowledge for you, though... not everyone plays exactly like you do. There are other ways to use JJ's than how you do, or how you "think" others do.

If they haven't put this in correctly, it's going to screw with JJ lights... again. They seem to not have anyone testing who actually knows how to play a JJ-light, as they repeatedly pull things like this.

Awww, a forum troll, how cute.

Agreed.

Sorta surprised that since the ammo quantity is now the same, they don't just make both guns run off the same ammo. It probably the same ammo, just the feed mechanism is different. But the feed mechanism is part of the gun.

the reason why the ammo is not the same is the same reasons i cant shove a barret 50. cal magazine into a 50. cal machine gun.

Could be using a different cannister which is part of the fast loading mechanism. The rounds might be the same but they are in a different package.

They combined the LRM's and SRM's into one ammo type instead of separating it by launcher size. I really like this system BTW.

Unfortunately, the push and pull of pgi supporters and haters is here to stay. As long as MWO continues to have new features added that are not yet balanced, and as long as PGI buffs and nerfs, and as long as forum posters think they feel entitled to b*tch (which is forever on all three) then the forums will continue as we see it now.

What will help it is more, detailed, constant, and meaty information from the devs (because that’s way better than silence) and a chat lobby where players can vent rather than in the forums where the “bile” sticks around. Im looking at all these 5000+ post forum warriors. Those poor guys need a chat lobby.

11,600+ people following MWO on twitter, just over 3,000 people on the forums...

I think they can make a legitimate argument for posting breaking news on twitter before the forums.

Perhaps, but one might assume the only reason so many are following the twitter feed is because the devs can't be bothered to post things here. I would prefer it here, and can't be bothered to deal with half finished thoughts and tiny blurbs that lack context on a twitter feed. Twitter needs to die for the sake of all man kind.

Oh well.. since we're posting videos, and since this might take a little while longer...

Still no ETA how long this extended beta goes until it goes live for real?

[The Archangel]

DAMMIT GAME, Y U NO UP?!

Anyway, kinda looking forward to this patch, sounds decent-ish enough. But I guess we wont find out until the servers are back online

Try putting a clip from one 7.62mm rifle into another. Most have some variation in the clip, some all use a standard magazine, etc.

Particularly look at something like the FN-FAL P90 with it's drum clip. Same exact gun as several other models, but whole different loading mechanism.

[Ahasver]

Just on the side note, it DID work. They posted on Twitter, we know it here.
By Chance? Yes but a high chance

Why not just make the UAC5 and AC5 pull from the same bin like SRM's.

Why does anyone need any other 7.62 other than a Springfield M1A?

"Other" rifles...pfftt... why even bother?

So they should make it like the DB?
"the patch is delayed for "some minutes later"
"some" meaning everything between 5min and 3h.
