Does that also include going BOOOOOOM!

I can imagine OP as the type of person who keeps turning up at Olympic events and saying 'Man, if only I had their gear, I'd totally be as good as they are'.

No. Just, no.

You know what, I'm bookmarking this just so I can bump it three months from now.

Every game I've ever played that has followed this new trend of "F2P" that mixes access levels between people who pay nothing to play the game and those that do has this stupid "P2W" debate.

For this business model to survive they need to offer something in exchange for money and it seems that grind bypass and early access are the best ways to do it and the result is the have-nots always want to ***** about the haves "paying to win". Instead of being happy that if they want to they can be cheap and play a de-contented version of a game for free they just ***** and moan constantly.

It is like they have nothing better to do than constantly search for stuff that paying players have that they don't so they can complain about it. Well I've got news for those types of people: No ****, shut the **** up. The people that are paying for the game SHOULD have something to show for it or no one would ******* pay.

Here's a funny little tidbit.

A Timber Wolf with 4 missile slots gets a 10% penalty to reload time. (It used to be 20% but people cried for refunds and it got changed during the second test server run).

Imagine what a Mad Dog with 6 missile slots will have for a reload penalty.

With old 7.5 second reload times for Streak 6s... + 10% = 8.25 second reload time (the original penalty for having just one 2 missile slot and 2 JJ Timber Wolf S side torso). Wait, what about 20%? 9 second reload time.

Just picture what the MD will have.

Um i don't think this guy has ever played a previous mechwarrior game or something. The stock mad dog runs incredibly hot with limited ammo. It will be sleeker than the timberwolf but not as much armor. I do find the stormcrow pretty annoying even though it doesn't have as much armor because of it's sleek and harder to hit profile. I'd imagine it is what will make it appealing over the Timberwolf if you had to find some reason. Otherwise i'll stick with my Timby.

It'll be superior to the Catapult-A1... because you can put in some TAG, despite missing JJs...

[Jacobei]

Interesting feedback. I can't wait to bump this

[FatYak]

its a 60 ton heavy with a big ct and little side torsos so its not going to spread damage well. It might have a buttload of missile racks but its not going to be hard to kill if the pics are anything to go by

Keep in mind the Direwolf hits C-Bills on Tuesday - Heaven help us all.

Btw I did take a good look at the hitboxes today to make sure they won't need a hotfix. They look really good.

I heard the latest warhorn is p2w..

[KharnZor]

Heaven help us all indeed

[Not Bob]

Thanks Russ!!


I also love how the OP thinks that there's P2W stuff in the game... The only mech that could *possibly* be seen as P2W is the Misery... but its a Stalker, so its SCTs get blow off so quickly, so that's not even P2W.

In short... OP Go home, you're drunk!

[ApolloKaras]

lol I can see the assault queue being @ 55% or better. Time to get the Oxide and rip out some rear armor

[KharnZor]

Misery? Them side torso's are mighty juicy
