3 Tons of AC20 and 2 tons of SRM w/ 3 SRM4 launchers is not bad for a brawler. That's 1000 potential damage. 44 pt alpha vs 30 pt on YLW.

Yea but the YLW can go faster, has two CT energy for zombie, while the AH is 100% ammo dependent, slower, but a bit more punch. Clownwarlord's original comment was that they aren't "considerably different." I agree...

Oh, also you've probably made millions off that YLW you bought a long time ago...I'm sure you got your money's worth and still can in the future.

Still a fan of MWO here. Just a good day for me.

Fixed JJ's on the kitfox make the thing totaly pointless now - what the heck was the piont?

Same with he timberwolf, WHY PGI WHY???

If it aint broke PLEASE do not "fix" it - Terrible Idea!!

So for those who doubted me back in the day...
Back when I mentioned this... Where I demonstrated it'd probably work like in the picture, but they said they would probably be arranging them side by side, with 10 vertical tubes and other craziness.


Here's what it really is.


Damn I'm good! I pretty much figured they'd work out something like that with a shoulder-mount and everything. (Fun fact: The Centurions now make better LRM boats than the Hunchbacks).

But still largely disappointed in losing the doors.

Very happy, thanks for squishing it guys.

Crap.... now my dual-AC5 Kitty needs to be re-tooled.
Those two extra tons hurt my build.

When do we get lore-friendly lighter Clan weapons?

I'd love to be able to sell the new Cent and Atlas...

The thing that bothers me about this change is now I cannot run a timberwolf D. PGI any chance you will be releasing additional variant omni-pods to resolve this issue?

I'm a sucker for sarna stock mechs and this kinda breaks some variants :/

Denied! No re-gifting, no returns for store credit, you will be thankful for what you are given, and you will have these out for display anytime grandma comes to visit! Now say thank you, and stop complaining or you will have to sit in timeout for the foreseeable future.

You hardcap your damage at 850 with an unattainable 100% hit chance. Doesn't look like a good move. Unless you plan to run out of ammo after 5 minutes in a fight.
Look up your hit rates with SRM and AC20 and you can calculate the average max damage you would do with your build.
Furthermore add the early loss of your right arm, even after buffing the armor with upcoming quirks and you cut your max damage in half.

Rewards are GREAT, you feel that you are doing right and want moar moar. I think rewards will also be useful for new players, it is an indication of correct approach to the game.

If those rewards would be IN ADDITION to what was there already. But those have been nerfed in return.
The 2 matches I just played: XP :-(

Whaaa? Is this true? We can't sell these to get a couple more open mech bays?

Ugh.

It is indeed strange to see Class 3 not included. Hopefully the Summoner gets some buffs.


More likely the Timber God.

That's right.

In my opinion the best Summoner buff is the ability to drop off JJ for more weapons & ammo space.. and hell the summoner need this the most..
By the way this patch works in the opposite way so now also the Timberwolf with Lrm5 or machineguns configurations are useless due to the JJ wasting tons.. and if we add Lrm5 heat penality.. goodbye UAC10, Goodbye Multimissiles, Goodbye Pulse Lasers.. 5 more JJ and 5 less HeatSik.. Yes very very Sik.. (without mentioning Kit-Fox disadvantages..)

As patchs go, making a good clan configuration becomes more hard and more boring..

By the way very good work with system role rewards. At least this is a GG.

Strange, I just had two games at 160k and 180k, without premium. I would rate it better than before. I was playing scout/flanker.

Not asking for cash... hell, not even asking for MC. Just asking to have my mech bays open for mechs i'd actually use.

Complaining I can't get rid of a freebie is not complaining about the freebie. I appreciate the gesture. I just don't want them taking up space.

I mean...MB's are 50% off! Next time you go to buy a Hero, remember you just got two and put your cbills in to MBs...!

[Carthoo]

Gotta say, that centurion looks good.

But Atlas.....ATLAS FCKN ROCKS! WELL DONE, DESIGNER! Credit where its due!!!

Thanks for both mechs, especially thanks for Atlases design!
