so its just like old times

Damn, wish I chose the Hunchie, the Atlas is nice....but eh DDC pretty much trumps the D any day.

[TripleEhBeef]

Not a founder, but I am looking forwards to more Hunchback duels. If you have an F tag, watch out

Blue shields get no love

[Gattsus]

Loved it, a decent challenge!

[Mar-X-maN]

I am just glad I properly adjusted my Atlas to the UAC5 for Gauss swap. Runs better this way now. Last match today:
4 kills 4 assists. Hunchback should do fine too and Cat with what seems like a revival of Lurms currently. Jenner might give me some hard times tho. I just can't resist the urge to go full throttle all the time.

Overall, this is much appreciated PGI. Time frame ist good too. I just need to find a way to squeeze my birthday party in there somehow.

Oh ****, as of this writing I finished another year. Damn, my supply of years is getting lower by the minute.

Been here as long as every founder, Closed Beta test invite came on week 2 after the announcement that they were sending them out and while I havent dropped as much money as so many of the founders have over the years, but wouldnt a different colored silhouette in the lobby and on the forums be all that much to give those of us who DIDNT pay to Closed Beta Test a Nod in recognition? No need for extra compensation to increase participation(unless of course its a #DuncanFisherRandomLinesWarhornsForEveryone [and of course I know the Hula Girl isnt a lie, David Drake wrote about it after all].

And how about some huge Urban map for CW that doesnt involving shutting down a big ass gun that is just shooting to shoot, say something more Conquest like or a mission where you have to recover Data (which means a Mech has to be in close proximity for a certain amount of time to 'download' it, then make it to a Drop Ships Extraction point while/after eliminating the other team or they have to maintain a presence at the Extraction spot to keep the Drop Ship from landing to pick up The Mech that has the download in its computer system (If the Mech that has the download gets taken out another Mech as to download the data and get to the extraction point and keep it clear of hostile mech forces for half again as much time as it takes to down load the data (say it takes 4 minutes to down load and 6 minutes of keeping Extraction Point clear for a total of 10 minutes) AND there is no Set time limit like there is currently so we can get away from the Wash,Rinse and Repeat that is CW now.

Never thought I'd take that OLD Atlas-D out of storage, but happy to be wrong. Having read the sad plight of the Veteran founders, perhaps adding a tier to the achievements for founders...
30 points: add one Founders mech to your collection
50 points: upgrade (for pay) to a higher level of founder....


Also, destroy all trees!

[EVA UNIT 00]

Is there a post somewhere that goes more into detail about these map updates? Thanks in advance.

Title: "Calling ALL Founders"

Elite Founders didn't get mechs, so it isn't really calling them all now is it?

You mean Veteran founders, Elite founders got a single mech rather than all four the Legendary founders got.

Blues unite! or lament! or something

"Calling all founders"? Oh you mean "Calling all elite and legendary founders"....

Thanks PGI for leaving out us veteran founders. I have to wonder how much of your start up money came from veteran level vs elite or legend?

Not having a Founder's Mech only disqualifies you from contributing to the 50K kills, and getting on the leaderboards... you'll still get the personal challenge reward, and the Founder's bonus rewards for the personal challenge....

The Atlas is the best lookin' founder's Mech. It still has the old, awesome looking skull-head. Plus, eye-patch! Now, if only we could get the glowing green eye back... *cough* 800 F*ing people said they wanted glowing atlas eyes back in another thread *cough*

And, my D beats D-DCs all day long 2LB10X, 2 Large Lasers, 2 Medium Lasers, 2 SRM6... God help anything that gets within 270 meters...

Just... not Dragon Bowling XD

[Abisme]

So can I not participate? I am a founder but I don't believe I have a founder mech...

[Neput Z34]

"Dragon Bowling" is silly while running a Dakka Dragon-1N, unless of course you run out of ammo/ get your dakka arn blown off.
I am tempted to do this event like it's 3049 in a Centurion CN9-AH or a Commando COM-2D / 3A

lol, were you around for that? I remember being in my Atlas... Dragon runs me over and knocks me down, just as I stand up, he's already in reverse and hits me again! Kept me pinned there until his teammates could get to me and murder me XD

[SilentWolff]

I approve of this thread

[Hoffenstein]

I would love to partake in this event, but it takes so blasted long to clean the Clanner chunks out of my Atlas's fists between each match...
