Thanks for hopping in and recording some of the quirks in action.

My pleasure! Helps people understand what it is, how it will affect their mechs/setups on it as well!

I'm legitimately tempted to whip out my LCT-1V(Prison) now.

Holy mother.

Yeah, I did the math right.

Still, 100% f*** this build. The major thing about this locust is the Machineguns, and you're stuck with two, which is worthless, almost no ammo, which is worthless, and, as he says, most will just run an extra DHS.

Yeah. Thanks. This is totally what I spent actual cash on.

This partnered with a CDA-3C is going to be a terror at ranged combat!

[Nothing Whatsoever]

Hmm... interesting.

[Impyrium]

Oh... oh no. Locust OP.

Now I'll feel less like an idiot every time I run Locusts!

Thanks for recording these videos Sean, it's much appreciated. Especially the Awesome one- soon, the very hills will shake with the thunder of PPC blasts...

[Metus regem]

wow, that RoF on the laser was nuts, now I'm going to have to be extra careful about those Locusts....

And it will be...awesome!

I'll show myself out.

[Bigbacon]

ok... quirks are officially ********....

might as well just make the LL a high damage flamer at this point....

ridiculous....I mean.... beyond ridiculous.

If you use a half ton of ammo, you can actually fit in 3 MGs.

I know what you mean, IS mechs wont quite be the hard mode they used to be.
I eagerly await the QQ from the vat born clanners

Because 4 MGs and 1 M[P]L is so much better?

All Lolcusts are underwhelming by definition. At least on November 4th, this one should be able to qualify as an annoying pest from extreme ranges.

Won't hear that from me, if anything I'm looking at it as Challenge accepted.

[Nothing Whatsoever]

If I can get time, I want to see how my 4xMG 1xMPL 10xSHS Locust 1V shall run with the new quirks.


Dunno If I'd bother with other setups, when my focus lies more with Commandos!

[aniviron]

By and large, the videos are pretty impressive. Looks like a world of difference for the Cicada, Locust, Hunchback, and Awesome.

Some of them are pretty underwhelming though, like the Raven. When a mech looks underwhelming against stationary targets without full armor, I just can't bring myself to be optimistic.
