In my experience they usually turn around right as their insides go red. Must be the crit warnings finally getting their attention after ignoring all the damage indicators.

I fear the whiners have gotten their way once again...

Sorry I missed the available details and source on this?

Have i missed it, or does that not say anything about locust nerfs, because I really hope that doesn't happen.

NOOOOOO!!!!!!

Let's just hope it is a reduction in structure quirks and not the agility ones.

Just got neutered by a locust in my Vindicator (yes i know) first he removed my left arm and then he removed my right arm. Stayed so close i couldn't use my PPC to swat the bugger as soon as he saw my PPC had gone he pissed off and left me with a medium laser in my head.

Either couldn't be arsed finishing me off as i was twisting and jumping like a loony to spread his attack. But the cheek of it gimp me and then just **********!!!

Well played unnamed locust pilot.

... and that's exactly why PGI will never ever get a single effin' dollar from my wallet again.

Hey, that shiny new car you just bought? Porsche drivers complained it is too fast, so instead of 200 kph we OTA-updated your engine electronics and your newly decided-upon top speed is 150 kph. Have fun - and do you wanna buy a mech pack?

edit:
ah, got it. Great new medium and heavy mechs out for preorder. Can't be that unskilled pilots get shot in their paid-for mechs by rusty old Pokecusts. And yet, this will be done.

Finally mastered the 1V today. I have a really bad habit of getting to speed tweak on a mech and then moving on to the next one. Just 4 more locusts to master

It is worth note, that we do not actually know what "Changes" means. I am full of fear that "Changes" = NERF because it just looks that way from the twitter OP that the comment was to, but I am not quite lighting the torches or grabbing ye' ole trusty pitch fork yet...

Yeah, but the goal is to make enough counter noise that whatever changes happen, they are small not way over the top, as has happened before.

3s is next. I have been doing pretty well in that one so shouldn't take too long (provided I don't wander off to play Miriam's for an extended period). That will leave the 1m, 3m, and 3v. 3m should go well too, I am not sure about the 1m, but I am dreading the 3v.

I think I just entered that phase of grieving where I'm okay with it.

Yeah, it isn't like I am going to stop driving locusts no matter what they do to them

That's about right. Eff the whiners; I'll still kill them all.

You hear me, PGI?

NERF US HARDER! IT WILL ONLY SUFFICE TO MAKE THE BLOOD OF OUR WEAKLING FOES AND THE TEARS OF THEIR WOMEN ALL THE MORE DELICIOUS!

I DEMAND MORE LOCUST NERFS!
In other news, I played again today after something of a hiatus, and found to my considerable delight that whatever weird bug had been warping me about despite great ping seems to have ceased. And then I racked up a few delectably brutal games of LCT 1V carry harder. Oh Locust, how I have missed you.
