NO, please.

It is one of the few things we have left.

If they wanted they could have started the game in the Civil War era like MW4 Mercs and instead chose 3050. I appreciate their willingness to set their game in this very important era.

It already has, that's why you'll be seeing Dire Wolves in IS forces on day 1. In shiny gold paint, no less.

They'll be -sucky as hell- compared to what they should be too. Everyone can be equally unhappy!

More heat? Less round on the ammo ton?
They can do whatever they want.

No, it's in the shop with your Warhammer.

[Goosfraba]

Your Mad Cat MKII?

I stole it.

It's mine now.

[Deathz Jester]

Lulz wherez my Ragnarok?

[pbiggz]

Take a ragnarok. Pull off the "lava gun" and dome shield, and add 1 heavy gauss rifle + two pulse lasers and you have yourself a totally legit fedcom civil war/jihad era assault mech.

If the ragnarok wasn't so absurd, i'd like it alot more, and I must admit, it looks cool...

But they will still have high pinpoint damage.. Homeless Bill's targeting computer anyone?

[pbiggz]

Weapon convergence should be broader in general, but front loaded damage is the root of our problems, not cone of fire.

Watch.

The first thing you will see is me firing an AC10, and, GASP! it fires ten slugs, not one fat slow one!

I see. I have always been pro burst fire. If you remember, i even suggested it again in the general section, and you did too. Just wondering if it could overtax the servers or give hit detection problems. Otherwise, i see no reason it should not have been done from the beginning of the developement.

That's why the timeline needs to STAY. frigging whiners. there's plenty of good mechs that show up long before that thing. hell, i hated piloting one because it had tissue paper armor for an assault. now.. the Marauder II, THAT was a beautiful machine.

nope. take away the timeline, and you lose a good limiter on what kinds of tech is available to the player. I wouldn't mind having the later armor types, or the Void Signature System, but the timeline makes it easier to balance out new weapons, mechs, and technology than if there was no timeline to adhere to, and you just dumped everything in at once.
