My Apologies. I intended multiple times to inform the community in a command chair post that Karl was no longer with us. We were really lucky to have a dedicated engineer of his caliber work on our product and for our studio for the past ~5 years. He was one of the most self motivated people I have ever known and was only interested in making a great product. We wish him nothing but the best.



Yes thank you. Karl loved working here and loved the product, but just could not turn down the opportunity he received. We completely understood and were grateful to have him as long as we did.

How many times have we told you to inform us if any of the dev personages leave?!

You dont have a community communication line open and suddenly go poof only to update the community months after the dev left.

Were back to amateur hour is it?

again, it is for this reason that companies clearly delineate who can engage with customers...

Aaand the mood is killed.

You might pause to consider that Karl knew he was leaving, and also told us nothing - should he not be allowed to engage with customers, too?

I came here from this thread. https://mwomercs.com...mmo-being-used/

I take it this was never implemented?

Er, depends on what you mean; Karl was answering questions here for over 90 pages, but stopped when he left to go work for Amazon. We were sad, though of course it was a great opportunity for him.

the op in that thread is still correct for ammo consumption order.

Hello Karl, I'm sorry to bother you and resurrect this ancient thread of yore but I was wondering if perhaps you could clarify something for a few of us.

Since 2013, there was an anti-farming measure added to leaving early, where if you did so while alive or without finishing a bare minimum requirement you didn't get your rewards. This was further expanded on in 2015 with the reconnect system.

Many of us for the longest time have been under the impression that when you left early, any enemies you hit but had not yet received a kill assist for when you left, could not be awarded (or simply wasn't). This is based on the rewards "earned up until you disconnect." As said assist isn't yet earned until the target is dead, the language could mean (and many of us believe it was clarified as) any rewards for kill assists earned after the disconnect weren't given. Presumably due to a technical limitation.

The score screens now show kill assists for everyone and seems to include kill assists to kills made after said people disconnect. Does this mean that kill assists are now giving the cbill rewards after disconnection? Has it always given them? And if they haven't always done so, how recently was this fixed? Or has it been fixed?

Given your title as technical director, I think you would be the most qualified to answer.

Yup. This was, IMHO, the single most valuable and informative thread this forum ever had. I'm really sad nobody else ever took up the mantle.

Is this still a reliable information?

...Ammo draw ordering is fixed for all mechs and independent of faction. It's presently: Center Torso -> Right Torso -> Left Torso -> Right Arm -> Left Arm-> Left Leg -> Right Leg -> Head. ...
