More videos please....

Clan ECM, didn't see that coming.

Same Omni pod has 3 AMS on it. 3 AMS and add the AMS Overload Module and you has a nice LRM point defense system.



Cheers.

No, you dont understand that test in the right way !
First you have to buy a Clan package and then you can test it !

Clan Mechs are furious Killing Machines !

In a few days, you will see nothing else on the battlefield !

ok i give up. three hours wasted and still no clan mechs i can only fight them. This is the exact reason i didnt buy clan mechs in the first place its been constant fail.

I was hoping that getting to try them would give me the motivation to buy some clan mechs....now i want them less.

Ill just use standard engine IS mechs and rip your arms off for now i guess......*full of envy*

Unless I'm mistaken, you only get to drive them if you have bought them.

And yes, I think that PGI's marketing people totally missed the boat, because while good word of mouth will help get people off the fence to spend the money, driving them would be MUCH more persuasive.

Maybe next test. I suppose the other side of that is that the servers are choked as it is, I hate to think how bad it would be if everyone got to drive a Timberwolf.

Is this a joke?!

You didn't order the clan mechs and then you're bitching that you don't have clan mechs in your mechbay?

They cleary said if you ordered a clan package you could play them, if you didn't you couldn't.

Holy heck.

[Chive On]

Just a suggestion,

Up the test to 24 hours, Guarantee I will buy some mechs.

I'm betting others would to.....and then this SERVER DOWNTIME wouldn't be a big deal.

Say you will so I can call in sick tomorrow!

ah i see. yea. apparently i was just being mislead by a bunch of people. I had asked like 6 people and they said i should have them all to try but they were wrong or just misleading me. yea thats how other games do it. whatever that was the most frustrating 3 hours im done with this game right now.

In my quick jaunt in the Testing Grounds I noticed that the CUAC5 sounds don't really match the projectiles leaving.

[SgtMagor]

Holy heck.

not what i was reading. it said it was a last chance for people who DIDNT buy them to check them out and then i asked real people who said we should all get them just like the other couple games i play which has test servers to try things out before they are released to raise hype and increase desire for that which you dont have. I just misunderstood should have listened less and read more.

but i should be pointing out this doesnt encourage sales and there are better ways to do so. pleases customers...well recent ones not the ones who have spent hundreds on IS mechs and are still waiting to get a little more reassurence on these things since some of the releases in the past have been....iffy

have fun

Huh... Those Clan mech pilots are not Clan material, just made two Mad Cats hit the dust with my stock Wolverine 6K.

Dont worry, Ive lost count of the IS mechs who has died to my Kit Fox so far

ECM arm (with 3 AMS no less) availible, JJ torsos availible, moves decently, Only issue I have with it is that those arms are faaaar apart, takes a bit getting used to.

Can you give me screencaps of Summoner cockpit, please?

[Solid Alexei]

Anyone who could post some screens of Dire Wolf in relation to other mechs please? On the fence of considering to buy the big boy

You realize you had to actually buy them to preview them, as they said in the announcement, right?

Just returned from fooling around with all my precious babies and it was AWESOME. Nearly everything about the Clans is great. I love the HUD, I love the sounds and the best thing is: Finally burst fire ACs!

Still got a reason to complain though: Warhawk Prime goes up in fire extremely quick. Even if you drop the lrm & ammo for heatsinks the "stock" loadout of 4 ER-PPCs just won't work. With 2 ER PPCs 2 ER Large its rocking my boat.

Also, I am a little concerned about the timber wolf S.... After trying around with the LRM possibilities I got to 60 LRMs (2x20+2x10)+1,3k of ammunition + 2 ER-Meds. Sure, with the Clan LRM-fire mode AMS has more time to shoot missles down, still... This badboy wont even heat up if you only fire LRMs and a constant stream of 60 lrms is pretty damn annoying
