Isn't this the point of Clan technology? It's SUPPOSED to be better.
Coming along and buffing the IS technology and making them as equals to the clan is dumb altogether.

The players out there who use team tactics and coordinate their assaults/defenses are going to win, buffs or not.

Our team has consistently proven that with every swing of the nerf bat---we immediately adapt and win; either with IS or with Clan 'tech. It all comes back to what you and your team put into the game. Just go out there and mindlessly blast robots...that's what you'll get from the game and your perspective isn't going to change, no matter what.

Spend some time in the 'mech lab, spend some time in Smurfy's...and you will have little to complain about.
Except ECM. Time to nerf the crap out of it. Posted Image

Since returning to my I.S. roots, I don't think I could go back to clans. The T1 Clan 'mechs make me feel kinda dirty... Like cheating Posted Image

It is true that with a UAC/20, clans can achieve very high burst damage in close quarters from peek and poke tactics. I have to admit even as a Clanner that GreenDuck has something here with this argument.

The clan UAC 20 is so powerful PGI should only be equipping them with non lethal ammo. This would at least give IS somewhat of a fighting chance. I really like the idea of the auto jamming lasers, clearly clan med lasers are absurdly OP!

The amount of cluelessness in this thread is mindblowing.

This is the greatest thing since KONG went Purple Bird.

but that doesnt work in a game where both teams have the same number of mechs. the tech has to be equal for the game to be balanced.

you do see that totally wrong 12 clan mechs do mean 2 more killing blows
thats rqual chances otherwise Clan could have 2 possible kills more
and 12 clay pigeons are better than 10

All speaking of ggood ways of balance but why dont achhive balance and fix the ppc bugs in one?
so Clan PPC does only work on physical Contact like a giant cow-stunner

er lasers are nearly similar for IS and clans
add a light fusion engine and clan advantage comes way more in line
it's a timeline thing

wonder when PGI runs out of mechs people want to buy that don't need an advancement in timeline


also quirks
sigh

Does this factors in the amount of armor?

I think Clan mechs simply need to be forced to be unable to use their weaspons unless shot at. Just to bring them in line with IS, you know.

They need to let clans do physical attacks, but take away their heat sinks.

Also, only clan mechs should have jump jets. But they have to have two BAPs to make them not HoverJets.

IS gets 50% rate of fire quirks to compensate.

Since CLANs are so OP, I thought the following overheating mechanic should be added:

1) If a Clan mech overheats it should explode.
2) If any other clan mech is within 100m, they should be caught in a chain reaction and also explode.

We can call this the popcorn overheating mechanic.

This mechanic will encourage clans not to stay too close together and really encourage them to watch their heat. Something needs to be done because clans are really OP.

A new idea!

Clans no longer have 'mechs, instead they only have twelve suits of Elemental armor for each drop.

No one has any mechs, we all fly around in UAVs and have infinity arty strikes.
