Thank you Tesunie, Koniving and Horseman! Especially Horseman, your detailed instructions should be very helpful. And I do have voice chat, I just do not always prefer to use it. Thx again!!



Hold down the E key on your keyboard to see the command wheel, move your mouse in the direction of one of the options and release the key.to transmit. "Enemy Spotted" will use the enemy you're currently locked on to.
If you took lance / team command, you'll see lance commander options there as well (you get more mileage out of those when you bring up the Battlegrid using B and right-click the desired location IIRC )

I might be out on a limb here but isn't the first reticle the colour-blindness one and the other the default on?

In which case you can find a check box in settings, think it is under Video, where you can turn it on.

We're all on a limb, since he hasn't really provided any context as to what "this" is supposed to be. For all we know he wants to spawn targets under his reticle.

Yes. You are correct.

I've been running with the colorblind version checked on, not for color blindness but because it actually is just normally a lot easier to see it change when you hit something.

Color, all mechs.
Pattern, specific chassis (such as Hunchbacks, all variants).
(Can also do one shot patterns).

Color unlocks are global and permanent. Buy once, use anywhere, forever.

Buy wisely I have many colours I never use. Tried to limit pattern to Fractal. Current scheme is Fractal, Camo Dark Pink,Camo Light Sand Tan,Hotrod Black aka Desert Rose or Heart of the City.

Yeah but colors for c-bills doesn't really cost anything. I would love to get a white and a black but not for MC.


Just checking.

The new tech was released in summer of 2017, right?

So if I'm looking at build anyone posted before that is outdated?

Is it possible to see your mechs build without login in to the game?
I know you can see which you own in your profile but not builds.

[Horseman]

No.

A definite No and I am glad, would not want folks looking at my stuff off field.

But then how else are people expected to make fun of me for forgetting to change my UAC ammo for normal ammo (or whatever)?

From the game directly? As others have said, no. You can't. However, there are off the game sites (such as Smurfy) where you can build and save your builds. If you maintain your builds there (I save them and then bookmark the page), you can have quick and easy access to all of your builds.

Sadly, I don't always keep those links updated, so I am constantly going to the game to reference things when I'm providing advice or build concepts...

I take photos of my builds, so I can refer to them.

Same as you re-enter a normal match... click the Quick Play button, choose the match, click Rejoin.
