Does this mean I can't arrow over to a different weapon group, say group 3 on the hud and fire it with left mouse button?

[color=cyan]Keep in mind there isn't a 'fix SRMs button' - but if there is, Nicolas Cage and I will find it.

No you can't - It's now: button 1 fires group one, button 2 fires group two, etc.[/color]

You can change it back to firing the selected weapon group instead of firing group one if you want, it just isn't the default control mapping anymore

The seismic change really hurts light mechs which use this a lot for scouting. It can be a death sentence for a light to stop moving just to get a reading on seismic.

But Garth, Cage would just write himself in a fix a la adaptation. That is, a fix within the fix if there were a fix about the fix.

What a great movie.

Doesn't everybody do this?

A pretty decent patch, when this is the most annoying thing:

I tend to use group 6 as my backup primary fire group, esp. for those 'mechs where I have a more or less sacrificial weapon-bearing arm, or where I have separated long- and short-range primaries for heat management.

>(Sighs)< I love all this stuff, though I wish you would have given us UI 2.0 or new game mode, rather then another new mech. I still love the stuff but its true.

I suppose they're going to have to be a whole lot more careful now when they check it, say instead of stopping right out in the open where they are easy targets.

^This. I mostly use the Seismic in my light mechs to avoid running into mobs of enemies around corners. If I have to stop just to get a read on the enemy that's just as dangerous. The Locust especially is going to suffer with this.

[MrMainiac]

So no more seismic sensors? Pretty much butchered a good module and made it useless for scouting roles.

At least increase the range of it back to 400m instead of what it's at now.

And no new map? Tease us with the picture of the Jester on the front and don't give it to us? That's just mean man...

[xeromynd]

Funny because I tried out a build on my BJ-1X last night with the same firepower as the Jester.
And it was head efficient (1.49), fast (116kph) , still had one AMS. Jester might be nice for a LL boat but who knows. I'll stick with my mobility and equal damage.

Also glad i held off on dropping 6 million CB on a seismic module, considering it kept getting nerfed and nerfed, and is now, very much dead.

Was really hoping for that spider hitbox fix. Got swarmed by them earlier. Bummer, black hole spiders for the win still.

This should be coming in the second November patch in two weeks (so sayeth Paul, at least).

[Dieslave]

I'm really excited for the jester. i was hoping for JJ's, and if it didn't get them. well it woulda been garbage to me.

But JJ's AND 355? awesome sauce.. i can now do what i do in my firebrand.. but Flying!... very excite..

[Hellcat420]

I would like my 12mil cbills back that I spent on 2 seismic modules please.

Good. We're counting on you.

Well, it seems that is not going to fix the problem anyways. He just updated with a clarification stating that it's a HSR problem, not a hitbox tuning issue. Those Spiders really need some work done on them. I've been getting really tired of swarms of un-hittable Spiders. Maybe they will release an update about HSR tuning on them soon.

[Dagger6T6]

This just in! breaking news from Comstar!!... Garth loves energy hardpoints... Holovid at 11:00

[Thoummim]

I do not appriciate the fact the jester has JJ, it feel pay 2 win. Come on that thing can be super fast + JJ + 1extra AMS.

Its just flatout better than the k2.

One could argue that the k2 has 2ballistic hardpoint but since the jaggermech is here there is little reason to bring a ballistic in it.
