Yep. I never contested that. Just correcting that we have ALMOST triple the fire rate for double the TT armor, and HP values, not the same.

I hate it, but we don't have any evidence that the sales reached the target. Especially since we WEREN'T TOLD WHAT THE TARGET WAS.

We was speaking about our test games, when we walked out with TT armor.

I dont remember some special other higher sale level. Just level to urbie actually happen.

"Q22-23 (tiny mechs - survivability of 20-25 tonners, what happened to the flea & urbanmech?):
[color=#959595]First part is about quirks, no immediate plans for locust (or maybe even more leg structure?), russ doesn't remember which lights are still waiting on phase 2 quirks. They've already done a fair amount, don't know if they can realistically make them any tougher. Flea still is planned, but they don't know if or when it will actually come. Plus, MASC. It's not likely to get priority soon.[/color]
[color=#959595]Urbanmech - here's the deal. Russ still doesn't know if people are serious about wanting it, but he's been convinced to test it. Jan 20th they will launch a page to preorder an urbanmech! They have concept art, etc. Urbanmech will also have 360deg torso twist. Basically contingent on getting enough orders whether they'll actually make it. 2 versions - 1 20$ 'standard' pack with variants, a bit of prem, a warhorn, etc, 1 40$ 'collectors' package with custom skin + cbill bonus version, more prem/warhorns/etc. The 'monthly reward' is purchase between jan 20-jan 31, get bunch of extra crap. Would be released early april, and specifically says it's not an april fools. Also teases if we get this he might put in a stock button JUST so that he can see a 12v12 stock urbanmech battle. What makes this viable? 360deg torso, adds more hardpoints as usual (at least 6?). Engine is a bit undecided - needs special case coding for the 60 engine (negative tonnage!) - but don't know what they want to make the engine cap be. Probably higher than stock, but not sure how fast they want to let it go. Will solicit community opinion."[/color]

With my secend hand english, I dont see here nothing about some other mysterious stock sale level.

From memory (without going and relistening) the line Russ said was 'If we get the urbanmech, I'll push the guys for a stock private option'.

Either way, a push for a Stock private option would be great, regardless of previous anything.

I'm busy this week, but I will update the stock variant list (including valid R2 mechs) when I am back.

eh, it's being added, just not spending a huge amount of resources rebalancing things for it.

Curious it Ghetto-CTF-0X Marauders will be allowed? I know the ON1-K does it already, but..... it just doesn't look right.... :(

Hopefully, it'll be the simple straight option.

Makes the mech stock (or forces stock config) and disables quirks (and possibly skills).
The rest should even out.

I got some hopes now.
We need 3 things with stock button.
BT weapons stats, double ammo and quirks off.

It will be not stock mode, but hey, if that will be actually successful and people will see with theirs own eyes that stock is fun and we know it is (right?) maybe in a year or so will get real stock mode quene.

Russ said they will place a button to convert mechs into stock. Not a button that would drain extra resources (as a business would see it as) to make stock mode as TT as possible/balanced amongst each other.

Sorry Jaeger, but I don't think what you wish to happen is what is going to happen.

Not sure what you mean by button draining resources.
Loading few different xml files you call "draining resources"?
Or you think about something else?

He sad that they will not put any excessive balancing work in to it, like they do for main. But I tweeted him that no work is needed, just load old stats.
If you think that is a much of work? I dont think it is. Is a drag and drop thing.

Double ammo would be.

Hence my post and point, it'll likely be simple, either enforcement or flat replacement when dropped (replacement being better) and hopefully shutting of quirks + skills.

Just threw my back out. Literally 30 minutes into my 11 hour work shift for today. So, I'm home all day, losing pay. Worst of all, I probably wont be able to join tonight for matches. But, we can see if I'm up to it then. I have all day to rest up my back so maybe I can use my left arm again... AND breath at the same time!
