Was the point of this recent PTS to see how many new glitches can be implemented at once?

Timberwolf is doing the annoying Highlander thing where it gets stuck on EVERY PIECE OF TERRAIN IMAGINABLE. I keep getting stuck on PEBBLES and the edges of BUILDINGS. It's very frustrating to say the least.

I'm surprised that people who like the Timberwolf haven't posted yet, because thus far I HATE this Mech. Number one reason has to be the lack of agility atm.

I've been running the Timber Wolf S for a bit, and truth be told I didn't notice any terrain hangups. Mastered Timber Wolf feels good, fast, responsive, and deadly. I think job's a good one.

After Mastering the Mech, it feels like where it should be. Still having terrain issues though, and the basic'd Timberwolf feels more or less like what the Stock Timberwolf should be before any pilot upgrades imo.

EDIT: Timberwolf BUG

Polygon Camo on the Timberwolf has a section throughout the camo pattern that remains the Default color. it forms a "smiley face" on the chin of the Mech and includes blotches on the thighs, arms, and legs. It's recurrent throughout the entire pattern.

My poor summoner varients suffer this fate as well

Primes are fine, its the varients that seem to suffer on default camo.

Losing a side torso on a TBR-S - takes out EVERYTHING on the other side torso and arms too - what gives??!!

[DogmaRaider]

Not so much an in-game issue; I bought the Masakari collection and the Timberwolf ala carte but only received 3 of the 6 Timberwolves.

[Leigus]

Not sure what the general opinion is, but the Timber Wolf appears to be in danger of becoming the "Catapult 2.0" as far as its head hitbox is concerned. Placement doesn't seem to be an issue, but scale is a bit large.

[forcemac]

disregard...seems to be working now.

Yes also on top of the racks in the middle from top view looks like big solid colored area

I had this happen to me earlier, but to be honest I can't prove that's what happened. I just noticed I lost one side torso and lost the weapons on the other side torso at the same time. There's any number of other explanations, though, so I'm not certain.


Anyways, overall, with my Timberwolves mastered they were outstandingly fun. Really, really awesome. Couldn't get enough of 'em.

Love the timberwolf. Cockpit looks great, mech plays great. I dont think we really need another JJ poptart added but I guess it helps add to the clan varitety. I think the leg hit boxes are a bit big but still love the iconic madcat.

[fleshwoundNPG]

After a second look, the Timber Wolf with SRMs on its shoulders still looks odd.

Timber Wolf S Torso Quirks a bit much considering how Streaks got nerfed today, and their already rediculous re-load times.

The S Missile Pods are also mixed up. I put a SSRM6 on the shoulder and a SSRM4 on the side, and it switches them after I save. Imagine that happening when you mix a LRM20 and a SRM2...

Timber Wolf Prime Invasion Camo STILL DOES NOT let me modify the Tertiary color. That's a flaw that needs to be addressed. With that camo scheme you can get LOADS of awesome tri-color liveries.

Default camo scheme is lame. Polygon camo is striking.

[Jonnara]

Having same issues with the OP. Every little pebble is stopping my Madcat Prime from moving.

[CG Chicken Kn]

Never had any terrain issues, although I did not play my Madcats very much, since everybody and his dog was.

Cannot confirm or deny any of the above issues, but overall it is a very solid chassis that felt great mastered out.
Great customization with some pod swapping, enough restrictions so we can't make stupidly OP builds.
Winner!

But you already knew that.

[Hex Pallett]

Can we have a smaller "lower" missile launchers on S variant when using a low-count launcher like CSRM6? Don't think it affects hitbox much but visually it looks out of place, especially so when the shoulder launchers have different sizes.

Jumpjet Variant needs to go.

But then we cannot recreate this epic scene.

[SilverlightPony]

Unmovable fixed structure/armor crits taking up both legs and the head? Come on, PGI, let me stick heatsinks in my legs and ammo in my head. >

Aside from that, I'm having a blast with this 'Mech.

Honestly I don't think it should have included it in the first place... but now that it's here, people will rage something fierce if it's removed.
