Hi everyone, and welcome to another Weekly Screenshot! This one showcases an Atlas pilot facing off against a Hunchback in one of our many 1 versus 1 duels. In this case, the Atlas has the clear advantage - this isn't always the case though. Paul has quite a brutal Hunchback build. Think the Hunchback pilot will make it through? We're working on a tonne of new stuff, and we hope you enjoy these images each week. Thanks for tuning in everyone, and see you next week!

Darn that Paul.

Kill it; kill it dead.

Such a wonderful game :')

[Glythe]

thx for the ss but I'm wondering why the Atlas has such a terrible load out? Is that a handicap to fight against the Hunchback?

[Chunkymonkey]

So much torture to non beta people.

Is there any other way?

[Capnflintlock]

FIRE EVERYTHING!

AC/10 2xLL an LRm and an SRM, this is a long range Atlas, instead of a Short range brawler.

seems a decent loadout to me.

Nice screenshot, but the link to the bigger resolution is broken.

Atlas AS7-RS, new model unless I'm either mistaken or just not up to date.

I think you're looking at the Hunchback's weapon display.

Interesting that the three Atlases we've seen have been the AS7-D, AS7-K, and AS7-RS.

I say "interesting" because all three of these variants should have the same set of hardpoints: one energy in each arm, two missile in left torso, two energy in center torso, and one ballistic in right torso. Perhaps there are hidden unused hardpoints for each one that are different between variants?

I cant wait this is going to be AWESOME !!

[MechaDraco]

its not an awesome its clearly a hunchback.

That Atlas is at about 63% heat. Firing 2 large lasers in tabletop is 16 heat, probably enough to shut down the Atlas. I'm saying the hunchie which is running a much cooler build (if he can survive the alpha from the Atlas) will win the day.

Hm.. Compared two Weekly Sceenshots. (11 and 7)
-Same Mechs (And Variants)
-Same Map
-Nearly Same Position
-Same Weapon Loadout for Both mechs
-Same Name of Hunchback Pilot
-Same Damage on Mechs (Only diffenence is that both are more Damaged in Screenshot 11.. but there is no Damage in 7 that is not also there in 11)
-2 Minutes Difference
-Atlas has same Ammo count for LRM (he could not use it in this 2 Minutes the Screenshots differ from each other)

I would say this is the Same Battle... and so this Sceenshot is 4 Weeks old :/
Pfff..

Am I right?
Did I win something?
No?
Damn

The AS7-RS is a damn sexy config. I have no idea how the Hunchie is doing so well with two AC/2s - the cycle time on lighter autocannons must be very fast.

how about a weekly video
