Nice, lot of interesting things in this Patch. Fall damage is long overdue and welcome, even tho I will curse about it at first.

Can´t wait to use the Target Computer, finaly a good alternative to just boat more weapons (or heatsinks). Realy interested how a double PPC with crit chance realy behaves in the game.

Blue darlin you think small. If we're gonna go 5k on roids it should be 8-10 mgs

Pssh. The max weapons you can have in MWO is 16 weapons. Why not 15 MGs and a single Mlas?

[LT. HARDCASE]

'Select Mech' and 'Mechlab' no longer going to the same exact place is a small thing, which makes me very happy.

I suppose you were referring to the Trial mechs... which BTW will still show up as owned.

Yup! Thats what i meant. Its just all trials were champions recently, so they became somewhat synonymical in my mind. And now, they are literally mixed between my owned. ****.

After Reading this...

"Improved "sorting" of the Owned filter in MechLab
Sort by weight, then alphabetical if same weight
Heroes and Champions no longer at the top of the list"

my heart jumped in joy...
after checking the mechlab it crashed down and broke its right ventricula.

Why is the vertical speedometer in ft/s when other horizontal movement is in km/h?

edited for correct time units on horizontal speed.

That's a VERY good question!

Is there any way to make sure the Clan Targeting Computers don't effect Gauss and PPCs?

Or is that asking too much?

At least the Timberwolf really can't fit a Targeting Computer.

Lol yeah because for example the Warhawk Prime equips one just for funsies. Definitely shouldn't effect cERPPCs

[Cimarb]

THIS is what a patch should look like. I LOVED reading all that! Keep on trucking, PGI, as you are finally on a roll.

Someone already brought this to Russ' attention and he said he would look into it.

[Bront]

I kinda like the "Invalid" thing. Still wish you could hide trial mechs.

Yes, it definitely should. Let's balance the root issue, not everything that affects it. CERPPCs, if they really are needing a nerf at all, just need to have more of the damage dispersed, such as 7/4/4. Gauss is fine where it is. Let's not start doing weird things to other components to try to indirectly nerf ERPPCs, though.

You know. This song takes on a whole new meaning when you change who they are singing about to the Dire Wolf.

Now we need a picture of a Dire Wolf descending from Heaven with an Angelic host (Or Elemental Host) Someone with art talent make it so!

okay, i see no fall damage, 4x3 not working...

[happy mech]

just one thing, you say "scalar" falling damage, did not you mean "scaling"? or something similar? because "scalar" is a value

"The faster the Spider hits the ground, a scalar multiplier is added to this base damage. This scaling happens, for Light 'Mechs at 38 ft/s. So any impact speeds of 30-38ft/s will do 1.12 damage to each of the Spider's legs."

i do not understand this, is it scalar, or is it scaling?

[Orkdung]

A robust patch. <S>

To tease us with updates without content ofc! Meanwhile twitter shows stuff like:

A tuning pass on clan lasers and a few others, details in patch notes. A small adjustment to the direwolf CT.

Scalar fall damage. There is now a vertical feet per second indicator on the HUD. Mechs start taking damage at speeds over 30 fps

A full series of UI 2.X improvements. Too many to list but all should feel great excitement at how quickly its going to improve now.

I think you guys know all of this but here are the main points again: New MM which supports 4x3 and now has a group queue for all groups 5+

Im not stooping to using twitter for PGI.

No only those two things are working as expected, but wait times for a match are now ridiculously low (10-20 sec.)
I vote that next Hero mech is called The Berg, after our hero engineer.

Awesome patch. Period.
