You get the D, the DDC, and the S.

Boarer's remorse is a 30 dollar jenner, RS is obsolete, and K is the laughing stock of the assault selection.

as i said, quirks may change this, so i shall wait for quirks

D-DC is tier 2
D, RS, and BH are tier 3
K is tier 4

so the K will get some pretty serious buffs that may make it stand out. or it could suck just as bad...we'll see

I absolutely love my AS7-D-DC, except on 2 occasions, landing in Caustic, and landing in RiverCity.
Its not a racecar.

But surprisingly enough, I play my AS7-D without ECM and actually have a better K/D ratio and W/L ratio with it lol.

Both are my revenge mechs, when I get tired of being murdered, I give them the D.

[Jazzbandit1313]

Went with the D-DC. rockin some dual ultras, 2 mls, 3 streaks, stnd 340, ECM, and a fall camo spec to boot. BOO!

Whenever we're on Mining collective everyone makes jokes about going down on the D (line)... or getting blackjacks on the D (line)

My favorite Atlas is the one in my team with a good pilot in it, otherwise the best Atlas is the destroyed one.

There is a choice other than the D-DC?

Nope.

The Founder's AS7-D! And the worst thing ever - I don't have one. I think it's not fair since i never had a chance to get. Was it my fault to enter the game a little later the founders progamm was closed? Sorry for whinning, but i can never get over it. so depressing.

I'm thinking of buying the Boar's Head as it has very attractive hardpoints, but the camo desing is killing me, it's just aweful. Sad thing we do not have a chance to preview the color schemes on mechs we do not own.

Right now the AS7-K is my very favourite. Two zombie MPLs and double AMS is actually a great advantage.

Oh - sweet - you know my favourite is the AS7-D (F)

[-Natural Selection-]

Brawler stalker version of the atlas.

[Roadbuster]

Depends.
When playing in a group without another ECM mech or solo, I prefer the D.

D-DC makes you a priority target and ECM isn't what it was since they fixed NARC.
1x ECM works against uncooridnated groups or average players. Better groups just focus on you and take you out as soon as possible.
2x ECM is minimum for effective LRM protection.

[SaltBeef]

R-S ( C ) My fav to play.

In MWO?
Boar's Head and RS are my favorites. (Quad LPL is like having two AC/20s, but 42.4 damage and less ghost heat than two AC/20s).

Same here. AS7-RS with quad LPL and an AC5 with 1 or 2 tons of ammo. The AC5 is just there for when you need to kick it into overdrive and go full Matrix. Or when you're at 90% heat and you just need to squeeze out that last 5-10 damage to get the kill, but you can't risk overheating and getting your rear torso shredded.

I feel your pain. It's the same with me and the CPLT-C1(F)

[Sarlic]

Hard to tell...long time the F was my fav. Currently the RS is my favorite. But the K was good before the invasion. Had more anti LRM support.

But i like the D aswell. I got a mixed build on that, works very well.

I like them all. Haha.

Haha nice one. He does seem quite relaxed though to be honest, enjoying the beach.

[Yosharian]

DDC is leagues better than all the others due to the ECM. It has pretty good hardpoints I think.

[Tahribator]

DDC and RS. DDC because it's the best brawler with the perfect B and M hardpoint layout. RS because it can have useful arm lasers and they're worth losing a B and M hardpoint from the torsos.

D looks good on the paper, but those CT lasers are very hard to aim because the torso is very slow. K trades its favourable hardpoints for . . . only two AMS'. The new S might replace the DDC for me because of its sheer SRM firepower. Quad SRM6es and an AC20 is currently only possible on the Orion VA, but it barely holds them.
