Ok imo MWO in 2015 have much more polished mech textures, better rocket flight path but this is only my opinion.

I personally waited months after the CB opening, just so I could buy a good rig to play MWO.

This is back when Atlas and Stalkers were considered the biggest hitters. Add to the fact that it was 8v8, and pulse lasers sucked balls, and there were no weapon quirks, the TTK was naturally higher.

Aaaaany day now.
Just you wait.
inb4 Vassago posts his standard copy-paste collection of Beta screenshots. Or I guess he stopped posting. But yeah.

Yeah, back then it was a "Thinking man's shooter", it was slow-paced, visceral, meaty and downright the best Mechwarrior game i've ever played.
Now it's Brainless Alpha-spam online: Clan wars edition.
Oh, how i miss the beta...

Some people have massive fps drops since patch/hotfix. Also IIRC there was no stalkers in 2012 - only atlas and awesome.
I love the gameplay in that clip... slow, no instagib, every single medium laser counts. You could tank some dmg in a medium mech.... god dammit! Now I have to go and play a game where poking around a corner for 1 sec will end with cored ct or at least destroyed st.

And no DHS.
You couldn't even fire 4 MLs together, or at least not 3 times in a row. And those were the backup weapons. Just look at the hunchies in the vid, they struggle with some ML and 2x LRM10.
Yeah, heat management was a thing back then and TTK was really long and good. It was hard to kill an Atlas. That was an achievement - and if two or three Atlas come around a corner you were more or less screwed.
everything was better in the past, even the future....

no broken clan weapons, no broken 12v12, no broken quirks/modules... so yeah TTK was much longer.

The funny thing is MWO in CB run much more fluently with better graphics as it does now.
So it didn't worked much
one reason for the longer TTK - see the laser volley of the hunchback disperse - when he try to keep the Jenner in aim?

Because we can't slip a new PC past the CEO (read: wife).
I think we need a support thread, somewhere next to The Daily Whine.
this 100% this
the other DHS and the increased heat threshold together with the option of ES increased the damage output exponential.

They downgraded the graphics (especially the extremely CPU intensive physics engine) a lot to expand their potential customer base to more casual players who didn't have an i5 and a GTX670. Personally I don't see why I couldn't have the good graphics pack while the people who didn't blow a grand or more on a rig get what we ended up with but whatever.

I believe that video predates DHS, Pulse lasers, XL engines and especially before the OP Clan tech BS (which ruined battletech and killed the franchise IMO).
