Everything so far I've seen in UI2.0 has no field for maximum climb angle & falloff. This is a huge deal and currently the only way to confirm what a 'mechs angle is, would be to look at the XML file - a 'mechs climb angle is not related to it's tonnage.

This should be transparent information that needs to be on there.

I don't see why they never thought about implementing that, oh well they were too busy of thinking about how to take money easier instead of making better UI that gives as tons of information.

If i could get CW and DX11 i would give a flying f*** about UI 2.0. :(
The infomations provided with UI 2.0 are nice to look at for some minutes, but that would be all.

I know my Mechs and i know what i can do with them. These little graphs have the same gameplay value for me as the "Firepower" number in the current Mech Lab. ;)

Well.....just my piont of view. :D

Isnt the max climb ancle the same for every Mech? what does make one Mech coming further then the other is the speed.

Actually, with speed you can make it over some otherwise un-passable terrain but what really determines the max angle is the Mech's Archetype (which is not the same as its weight class). Speed and weight are two very loose constraints on the system.

Well I honestly couldn't give a flying monkey..do dah about DX11 and UI2

whats needed is CW to give this game 'legs' the rest is just prettifying.

seriously if we're here this time next year. and there still isn't CW it really will be dead in the water.

UI2 is allready behind scedual the revisied scedual from the 'live' presentation

As stated above, I give a ********* (and more *******) about UI2.0 What 99.999999% of ppl want is to have CW implemented.

A lobby for this to happen would have been enough imo.
