All this has happened before. All this will happen again.

I'd like to see Clan mechs be able to swap engines for higher or lower ratings... even if it's still a lot tighter than IS engine rating ranges.

i.e. Dire wolf comes with 300XL, and it's range would 280XL to 320XL as opposed to the AS7's which usually come with 300STD and generally have a range between 200 and 360 of either engine type.

... also, it's really annoying having all the trials in my mech lab and not being able to filter them out. I know they are there, I know how to find them if I want to, but I'd really like the option of turning them off when I look at all of MY glorious mechs in MY lab.

Okay PGI! Now is the time to announce the Mad Dog and Hellbringer. Sales are up, might as well keep the cbills flowing!

I've installed the test server after watching videos and will be joining in on Sunday.

All you clanners will have a tasty, IS-mech-piloting, Charlie lance PUG to pick on. ;)

... And I will get to shoot some new junk!

...but that's the whole point of 'balanced' clan tech. Clan XLs are already superior to IS XLs in every conceivable way. They have to be given drawbacks.

So, Niko, why are all these threads here? http://mwomercs.com/...dules-upgrades/
Are we going to be able to change previously locked portions of Omnimechs on the test?

I see PGI did a "Trial of Cleansing" on the feedback from the first trial. It's sad that I am not surprised.

Still locked. Some players just mentioned I forgot to leave a place open for discussion of that fact in the last test :)

Thank godPGI. As much as I can appreciate some desire for Omnimechs to be fully open to customization, the current setup is really interesting and most importantly very different from the IS mech customization.

I'd hate to see that go.

Clan mechs have, if anything, even more flavour as a result - they're less bags of hardpoints.

Orders for Clan Packs reportedly shot up after the first public test.

So now we have another public test.

Smart move.


You want to know what else shot up after the first public test?

Requests from the community for a second public test.

In the long run they will probably have to relax the locks somewhat (not completely) or never ever put in any clan second line mechs, and IS omnis would be worse than standards if we ever start timeline jumping.
