[Lynx7725]

Nico Snow tweeted about tonight's patch:
1. JJ updated.
2. CLRMs minimum range update.
3. Mouse Wheel binding (not sure if in on this patch thought).
4. UI update with a "Play Now" icon that will retain mode selections without having to pick each time.
5. Classic Clan logos replacing re-imagined ones on match screens (no more green birdbrains, now with more green birdbrains...)
6. Rejoin feature.
7. Improved joystick support.
8. Plus other stuff he didn't mentioned.

thanks...so basically the usual stuff...no major things it seem..

Joystick support? Hmmm I only wish that were the case. Though I doubt my accuracy would ever be the same compared to a mouse and keyboard.

I am guessing we might see a IS hero mech.

Still got the spider to go from the original mechs, then the phoenix mechs the locust, shadowhawk, griffin, wolverine, thunderbolt and battlemaster.

Unless we get a new mech, but I dont think so and even if we were getting new Is mechs they will prob come out with each clan mech.

One can hope...

Very little going on at all, but hopefully, it's a sign that they're really working on CW. Hopefully.

There have been so few people buying the last few mechs, the BJ, Treb and Quickdraw hero. I wouldn't be surprised if they wanted to skip right to a more popular mech, like the Shadowhawk, to get some more profits.

Seems like a lot of stuff to me. Enough where it will mean some mech rebuilding.

While I agree I am sure a spider would sell just as well.

Not without an ECM.

I dunno, the JJ changes could end up being pretty major depending on how things shake out.

[Mudhutwarrior]

Looking forward to the launch changes. It gets tedious now.

ECM Spiders are boring, real men troll you with speed and MGs

The JJ changes and the rejoin feature will be very welcome by me. I'm also glad they finally got the Clan LRMs' range fixed. It will help when you walk around a corner and fire all your weapons at once from surprise. Now the LRMs will do some damage.

[Monkey Lover]

I really hope they fix the lrm bugs with lock and relocking with clans.
