8MG Arctic Cheater
Exactly what we need to waste assaults from behind

BTW:
I heard that the Machine gun RoF quirks just increases ammo depletion speed but does not really do more DPS, is that true?

Hmm... this first so-called 'Hero' looks underwhelming. If those are only 'So8'-type bonuses that we'll be seeing from this for all the mechs, these new releases are already doomed.


That said, I'm in hope that the next Monthly Patch takes care of a whole [bleep]-ton of Bugs. I'm talking about the kind of Bugs that I've been seeing with drop-down menus, hearing from warhorn & voting sounds, and things related to systems that have to run low resolution settings. Also, let us hope that they got the rest of the weapon mounting retrofits done, as I've already tripped over an interesting visual bug with Cicadas and CT-Mounted PPC weaponry. Oh, and let's not forget the Bugs with inventory update display for consumables while in the MechLab, as well as the allowance of Slot Violations while configuring Mechs. Finally, there's the Bug with exiting the 32-bit MWO Client resulting randomly in crashes, even if all your Game Program Files happen to read as perfectly valid. Frankly, I try to give PGI time before I start filing Bug Report threads here in the Forum, but I'll have to start those threads if a heck of a lot doesn't get cleaned up with this next Monthly Patch.

Are the pictures again not showing the final loadout? Specially for the Mad Dog this would be interesting.
Also: Is it right only the ACH is being shown, or is the news and forum post bugged? Why not show them if the shop page shows them?

Best regards

[Doctor Dinosaur]

Speaking of loadouts, here's the page with all the models comming out at the same time to prevent pay2win: https://mwomercs.com...clan-hero-mechs

Checking the listed loadouts vs what the new pics show...

ACH -SH "Shard" Hero
4 ERMLs? Check!
SSMR4? Check!
2 HMGs? Check!

ACH-E
2 MPL? Check!
1 Flamer? Check!
6 LMGs? Check!

Yep, seems like they're showing the final models with stock loadouts.

The Store page just has the placeholders.

Cannot see ballistics on the Mad Doc torsi. That's why I pointed that mech out.

The Bandit's ballistic hardpoint placement just makes it look ugly.

I, for one, welcome our upcoming 8 MG + ECM Arctic Cheetah overlords.

[Nelos Kniven]

So excited for my Bandit and Rainbow Crow!

[Tier5 Kerensky]

Mah free to play Mist Lynx and other omnis are ready.

Heck I think I'll get my first Ice Ferret too. I doubt it will be powerful but at least it should be fun strolling around in a fast ECM medium.

See the above link from Doctor Dinosaur about the exact cbill omnis we get along with these heroes.


Dang, so only the hero Cheetah will get 8 HMG plus ECM, while the F2P Cheetah will get 6 plus ECM. And F2P Mist Lynx can take 8 HMG but without ECM.

Oh that's normal countdown thing. Show little more each day. Normally there is just a new mech being introduced, so each day they show more, like cockpit view, size comparison, all differenent every day.

But now we have release of heroes for old mechs, so each day different mech is being displayed. We already know the hardpoints and mostly their locations too, so it's basically showing the quirks and pictures.

Yeah, the linked thread above has the tables for hardpoints of all the Heroes and the Plebeian c-biil accompaniments. This thread is the Mech Pr0n countdown that will have the screenshots, quirks, etc.

Will these new cbill varients be at all related to the new loyalty varients?

[Andi Nagasia]

im really hoping they looked into (my Poll on the SHC),

Me too, with a healthy dose of "Die you beep beep beep."

<.<
Maybe with a bit of driving them, too.

Come to think of it, I'm tempted to get my spider out for some MG fun.

And when are we getting our Commando 2C, I've waited 5 years.

(The C-variant of the Commando, that is not a "IIC" reference.)

Oh speaking of which, any hints yet as to the loyalty stuff?
