So as we see the up coming nerfhammer from the big ******** towards the clans, I fear coldron-born and many other mechs in the future well end up as our favorite fallens mechs (Timber wolf and Stormcrow).
So how many people are down to cancel wave 3 and literally tell PGI to go **** yourself?

[LordKnightFandragon]

IDK about all that, but I just havent bought any Wave 3. I do want the Shadow Cat though..was contemplating the Shadow cat pack....just to say ive got the thing.

[Whitefang70]

I want them all man, but we have to stop these idiots somehow to stop messing up!

[KuroNyra]

A Spheroid who is with us in our fight again the unbalance that some Spheroid want? Claiming that our mech are so OP even there overquircked Stalker can't fight?

THERE IS HOPE!

[bad arcade kitty]

i was going to buy shadow kitten and arctic cheeter but now i am not sure... probably i better learn to play is mechs because pgi don't want me playing clans

[Nightshade24]

I say be mature, be constructive, and help these quirks a little bit. Look at it again. It isn't in game yet. There is hope if we be mature about it, if we flame like an inferno we may provoke PGI to giving them worse quirks.

(Also there first thread disapointed me. I was hopping to have a difference between each stormcrow omnipod. Instead they nerfed some of the non-meta ones...)

[DaisuSaikoro Nagasawa]

Buying something doesn't mean it won't change.

It'd be my wish that individuals get over themselves. The Timberowlf, Stormcrow, and other mechs have given infinite amounts of joy to those who play them. They will continue to do so with hopefully more mechs being seen on the field.

Adapt. Grow. Get over it. Move on. Trueborn warriors do this.

What a disrespectful attitude to people who work to bring us the game we play and love.
Perhaps being constructive and not referring them as idiots would be a good step.

@whitefang,

I seriously believe you are overreacting here.

Slight nerf to TBR, SCR, 4N and FS9 was just the right thing to do.


(Not saying the game is perfect now)

Considering the fact the TBR and SCR was the only two good mechs for clans in the entire game and the rest of the mechs we have is as competitive as a hunchback or Thunderbolt WITHOUT QUIRKs. Look at the CW map now. this will be the most planets clans will have in a long time. (Which is around 7 atm?)

On top of that they nerfed the non meta omnipods for those chassis. Now people who are already struggling at using said mech because they do not want to do meta or want to run a ballistic or what have you is also hindered. This is like nerfing the urbanmech and quickdraw or the adder.

PGI had awful timing with this.

Even if it wasn't to make more people buy the Cauldron Born to replace the neutered Timberwolf, how are you going to prove that is not the case?

As it stands, it looks like a blatant bait and switch in order to make more money upon introduction of the unnerfed Wave III mechs. I think it's all very foretelling of PGI's attitude toward the playerbase and what they'll be doing to us in the future. It makes me want to throw up a little. Why give PGI $90 or $120? So they can do the exact same stunt when Wave IV comes around?

PGI can make mechs obsolete at will, and apparently has no problem doing so if it can make them some more money, or at least that's what I'm getting from this situation.

This is what worries me! this is why I made this thread!
I dont understand why people have faith in PGI!
Considering the only 2 medium and heavy mechs that WERE playable!

~20% laser duration nerfs is class A ********. This is a clear move to try to get people to buy wave three, by making our current good mechs **** tier. They did the same thing with the highlander/victor around clans wave one. Jumpsniping was actually holding fairly even with the clans at that point, so they put jumpsniping in the ground to move people to buying clan packs. Now they are telling us if we want to remain relevant, gotta buy pack three. No, I don't ******* think so. Fool me once and all that. ********.

Someone said that for stormcrow, it will take 1.95'sh secs duration!! it was already ******* long and this is what they brought upon us again!

[Corbenik]

PGI is just slowly shooting itself in the foot, ever since quirks got introduced it has just left a bad taste in my mouth. and that is all everyone really looks for in a mech nowadays. I don't think that is how it should be. but it sets things like this to happen. and slowly they are just going to mess with their sales on their own (since it effects everyone) with these nerfs and un nerfs. and not to mention the trust of players. wallet warriors and welfare warriors alike.

[DarklightCA]

They are nerfing the long time running best heavy and best medium in the game? Noooo. To be fair every mech IS players love to drive constantly gets nerfed so welcome to there world I guess? PGI is going to attempt to balance the game and if that means nerfing the Timberwolf and Stormcrow a little bit then you are just going to have to suck it up buttercup.

[MechaBattler]

Maybe I should spend money on this new wave pack. I'm not a Clan player. But it would be nice to cancel out your cancellation. MUAHAHAHA.






Just kidding. I'm poor. ;_:

[ArchAngelWC]

screw it...I don't need that cauldron born anyways....and they will probably nerf it the moment it comes out and IS players scream OP.....which is the entire ****ing point of the Clan v IS battle....and why the IS economy is soo important to CW

Considering the fact that the majority of IS mechs are T1 and T2 and the majority of Clan mechs are T4 and T5 post quirks with only 3 mechs in T1-2 range.

Congratulations. Literally every medium mech IS has will be superior to the Clan counterpart.
Not sure about the IS heavies as they still have the meh Quickdraw.
Lights was already a lost cause before quirks.
Assaults is already having issues already.

At least when PGI nerfs the top IS mech, you still got 60 other mechs to choose from. When they nerf the clan ones. we only have 60 other mechs to choose from... after switching factions to IS.

[Nik Reaper]

Well if the idea was to nerf laser vomit this will work.

The biggest problem here is the nice and incremental part of it X) , they could have started with 1% per energy hardpoint, I could live with 2% but 3% ? I can really feel the love....

Edited by Nik Reaper, 16 May 2015 - 05:08 PM.

[Whitefang70]

Well if we all cancel our Wave 3 all together that shows PGI that you cant fool us anymore PIG .i..,
Please tell me who's canceling, so if I cancel, at least I know we are a group!

You're kidding me right? IS mechs are only tiered upon how PGI quirks them and how the hardpoints are because without those quirks Clans will just dominate them every time. Most Clan mechs are Tier 1-2 mechs, don't know where you got your tier ranks from.

He meant weak tiers are quirked to be as good as tier 1s! thats his point!
