I just wait for them to overheat (don't have to wait long usually), then shoot a leg off.

By that time, they blown away side torso from the front on a direwhale and are hitting structure on ct (from the front as well). does not work. They are just better firestarters that do not die when they loose side torso.

I don't know what you're griping about. I get killed almost all the time. More than most Light `Mechs that're in battle. So quit complaining.

Sorry Hawk819, you mostprobably get killed, because you are not a dedicated lightpilot(just an assumption).
As much as I like to pilot my ACH it is somehow borked. It has nothing to do with the quirks....damage simply does not register.

I want it fixed for one reaon, so that it becomes a skill to pilot that bugger...as it stands right now, every numbnut can pilot that mech and do unbelievable damage with it. THAT has to stop. It is rediculous.

When will you lern to aim for the legs?

@vater damage registers as fine on the ACH as on other mechs. There is damage not registering, but it is the same as for any other mechs and sololy based on the mood of the hitreg.

I think the AC and the fire starter suffer from the same hit box regs issues. I just got a fire starter for myself and I am doing ten times better in it than my mediums and heavies. More kills, more damage. I occasionally lose a leg but somehow I have been surviving even with a leg gone. The AC has this and the leg structure quirks which makes it more likely to absorb damage and seem a bit impervious. I can handle the AC for now with my fire starter and its med pulses into AC legs and such but I usually need assistance. I trust PGI will do the right thing if there is an issue with AC. Spiders had it, Ravens had it so it's nothing new. Till then I say everyone focus fire an AC ;)

PGI my wallet and I are seriously ready to take a break from this game.. ACH's are seriously broken and you are not doing anything to fix this. ACH'S ARE RUINING MATCHES! PTW will RUIN this game. Fix them or my wallet remains shut. I'm DONE!

I think PGI is grasping at straws to make money with this mech.. I'm hoping it's not a 'last ditch effort' and that the game is not hurting for money.

You're interpreting too much into it.
It's just the usual PGI level of ineptitude and turtle speed of applying fixes.
Don't panic, keep your arms and legs inside the ride at all times and hang on.

NO you are WRONG. This is beyond their usual 'ineptitude' as you put it. They DELIBERATELY made this thing indestructible to make CASH MONEY. It's so obvious you must be blind. Greed like this RUINS GAMES. Have you seen the structure quirks on this mech?!?

those wobbling things at the bottom of the torso are where you aim at. and it then pops quite well.

Sooo... a bad pilot stands still in a AC and gets cored. And that disproves AC not taking all the damage it should while in motion, how exactly?

Yes, cheetahs can be killed. Eventually. That's the issue. You have to put 2-3 times the normal firepower on them to kill them. This skews games because your team is essentially facing 13-14 mechs instead of 12. And that's only if there is ONE cheetah running through its nine lives.

Too many of my matches end with 6 heavies/assaults encircling a crit cheetah and firing off enough alphas to turn River City into a parking lot.

At first you are like "wth?"

Then its "wow this is borked"

Then its maniacal laughter at how ridiculous it is. If you added a Benny Hill theme you could charge admission just for the lolz

Prime example: 1 heavy, 1 medium, 1 light, all with lasers and ACs, and some LRMs thrown in there, had about 15-20 seconds to finish off an already badly damaged ACH before the points timer ran out on a Conquest match. They simply could not do it. The ACH managed to do a fair bit of damage to the light and medium (nothing critical) while all three were pounding away at it. In the open. That means no cover.

So, fix the hitboxes and hit reg so they at least act like the FS9's (which are definitely able to be hit much more easily, trust me), and pull the structure quirks in favor of something else. That would resolve the vast majority of the complaints about the ACH.

Sry, but you are wrong....and I do not say that as the pilot that tries to kill the bugger, I AM THE BUGGER....and it is ********, seriously ********.
