So I was practicing with my mouse sensitivity, adjusting settings and then seeing how fast & close I could click on objects in the background screen of my mech lab. My Raven is displayed, so I start clicking back and forth on right missile -> left laser -> left missile, etc to test mouse reaction.

I click and drag by accident AND MY MECH ROTATES! Way cool!

Question is: new feature from last patch? Cause it would have been really nice to know this 2 months ago when I started playing....

Also, can someone slow down the "mech tips" you get before drop? I read very fast and still can't catch the meaning of many tips before they fly by:

"whatever you do, no matter how tempting it may be, don't ever ever engage the -"

WHOOSH!

Age old feature. Only works in certain tabs (like Mechlab).

Someone wrote down every single tip. Can somebody link it here for Fenrisulvyn please?

It is only possible for mechlab i believe. Can't do it under skills.

Do you mean this one?
That should probably be in your list of guides, so I may as well give you the relevant info here.

Hm.

So this means I could probably edit the game tips for my personal humor.

:) :D B) Time to have some fun!

Still doing it wrong, I'd link YouTube but Sony UK has not made it available in the states. BTW, Pete Burns makes a pretty good drag queen lol! (No idea if the link will pop a video in this post.)
