Gj, but I celebrate after fix is implemented and truly working.
Seen too many borked fixes I suppous.

[Xeno Phalcon]

Don't get too excited kintaro, shadowhawk and griffin pilots: 17th also brings the Clans, of which the Summoner B, Stormcrow D and Timberwolf S all make fine SRM platforms. The Summoner B and Timber Wolf S both have jump jets, and the Stormcrow will be doing over 106kph putting it pretty close to other mediums on the field.

So this means you will also rollback the damage tweaks the SRM's got when this patch goes live?

[ego1607]

Nice. Now you will concentrate on making a decent mechlab I hope.

[Marauder IIC]

Hello splatcat its you again :/

[MuonNeutrino]

To everyone saying 'roll back the damage when this fix goes live', NO! STOP TRYING TO NERF BRAWLING BEFORE IT EVEN HAPPENS!

SRMS WILL NOT BE OVERPOWERED! The last time SRMs worked, they did 2.5 damage per missile, ghost heat didn't exist, and splash damage meant that individual missiles were doing two or even three times their intended damage, and even with all that they STILL weren't game-breakingly OP. Even with 100% accurate hitreg, SRMs doing 2.15 damage with no splash are still probably going to be too *weak*, not OP.

Also, we have been dealing with this stupid ******* stultifyingly boring jumpsnipe meta for an entire ******* YEAR. Even *if* SRMs were to be made OP by this change, you could ******* DEAL WITH IT for a couple weeks.

Does this finally mean that my SRM 16 Jenner will actually be usable and I won't be stuck just using my Streak 8 Jenner?

This makes me so happy.

[Eddrick]

Awesome! Let the SRMs fly!

[Maxx Blue]

Hmm....my HBK-4SP thanks you...and my Jenner D...and pretty much any medium I own with missile slots.

I just might have to go buy some clan mechs now.

and thusly, the Clanners were driven back by an unending wave of splatcats, the IS was saved, and all was good.

[TWIAFU]

/sock!

Thank you!

[Merrick]

bear in mind guys that the clans get SRMS too, and they will also have fully armed and operational Streak 6's...

Edit: forgot to say Thanks PGI! that is one of a whole list of awesome news and communication in one day, Please keep up the great work and let the inofrmation flow. This rusted White Knight is pulling out the Belt sander and turtle wax for that armor he left in the garage...

i am truly appreciating the effort spent on that term and even more that it is fixed!

Brian Buckton ought to receive one purity seal for completing the task!

Looking forward to being able to use SRMs... though I think you guys will need to adjust the flight patterns a bit as well. Non-artemis SRM's are pretty bad and artemis is only slightly better in terms of the flight path. Maybe their flight speed needs to be increased to account for it as well. I dunno, you'll figure it out (hopefully)

HOLY POTATOES PGI <3

[wanderer]

Well, if this works, it'll mean SRMs finally work properly...for the first time since closed beta.

Can't say it's bad, but wow, did it take an obscene amount of time to find and fix.

Waiting to see the results. I would like to be pleased by them.

[white0Fox]

Either that, or the splatcats all died to clan ER PPC fire from 1km away, thus dooming the Inner Sphere in ways they never thought possible. :3

Unfortunately with your proven track record I will believe it when I see it.
