I feel with you.

Essentially, this is the price you pay for the longer range of MRMs in comparison with SRMs.

It's not as bad as with the lasers. All MRMs fire their salvo within 0.5s

But there is still no way how to shorten this interval.

Could you rephrase your question, please?

I quite do not understand what "crater2" map you are talking about and in what context.

[torsie]

Hmmm. When you go where your game is installed, there are folders with names of maps, but they are all named really weird like crystals, icelava, gorge. Is there some way how to find out what are their real names?

There is supposed to be a "Supply line sale", a discount on all engines and weapons. But what I'm seeing is that only select weapons are discounted and no engines. Has this sale been bugged in this way all the time?

For some reason engines never appear on sales when you're looking in the store.
They are half price, but you need to buy them in the mechlab.

[DavidStarr]

Ohhh, interesting, thanks a lot!
Odd, I think I remember seeing the discount properly just the last sale earlier this year, but maybe that memory is fake. Appreciate the reply, just a couple hours left to stock up!

P. S. Oh yeah, this is indeed half price, both in the Mechlab and in the Store. Just no "discount" banner.
I simply forgot how darn expensive the engines are.

Stealth is only available on IS ECM enabled mechs. The site below, filter by IS and ECM, which those checkboxes are in the upper left corner.

Welcome to the forums!

Before you spend cash, MCs or C-Bills on some 'Mech with Stealth armor, keep in mind that Stealth armor takes up 12 slots and thus it limits your possible builds. Also, when active, Stealth armor seriously hinders the dissipation of your 'Mech's waste heat.

I think that you should ask first before spending money on something expensive.

There was a spreadsheet by Tarogato that covered mech mobility but I'm not sure it has current data.

How do I use advanced zoom. Thanks

It is quite simple:
1) You unlock the Advanced Zoom skill node of the Skill Tree.
2) In the game you press the correct key on your keyboard. The default key is "V".

Hello it is Torsie again, is there some simple trick to how much targeting computer do you want ? What if someone in theory has mech with 8 ER Large Lasers.

I found some people saying 1-3 is best, but some people also say even big 7 is good.

Essentially, it is your choice.

The more tonnage and space you invest in your large Targeting Computer to boost your lasers' range, the less tonnage and space you have for heat sinks to utilize your armament fully.
