If they ever decide to "prevent" it, I want to see a mechanic that if the mech jumping on top is heavier, it will destroy the bottom one.

I.E. DWF-S jumps on a lolcust, Lolcust is rip.



RIght, its bannable. What does that mean? Nothing really unless your a **** about it.




I have no say in who plays...There is no mechanic in place to prevent it so until then...its up to PGI. If i see you do it in game i would send a report NOT asking for a BAN on your ilikerice but to prevent the EXPLOIT.

PGI saying its bannable is just their scare and i was giving my opinon. I just love how you get butt hurt and cry "well BAN me!"
IF they wanted to they would...

Actually if we both have weapons in our arms and not our torsos we should have the same firing angles correct? And he should be able to shoot up just as much as I can shoot down...


As far as I know, no mech can shoot straight up. Even if they could, they can't put a reticle on you, so arm weapons won't converge. There is simply no way to hit a mech standing on your head. It's like licking your elbow, you just can't do it. :P

Shooting down is also limited, but you are a small mech on a big mech, so you have a better chance of getting the right angle.

Heh! I was wondering why I've been seeing mech-riding a lot more frequently over the past week, and maybe this thread was why..?

Frequent enough, that I'd feel weird reporting it.
(and apparently quite a few players have figured out how to shoot perfectly fine while doing so.)

Its pretty funny though when done just for kicks.

HPG Manifold. My team is camping underneath. Other team is tired of waiting for someone to lose patience.
I finally step out to scout best exit, and there it is: a column of 12 mechs all stacked on top of each other.

Funniest thing I have ever seen. I think I surrendered out of total awe. :)

I dropped down on an enemy once purely on accident, I was extremely dissapointed that my dragon didn't stomp them to scrap metal. At least I got to ride them for about 5 seconds before soembody killed them. :P

If they don't want people riding mechs then they should destroy the mech you land on, or at least cause major damage and make you slide off.
