Take Kodiak quirks und give them the Dire Wolf. I think this mech needs these quirks much more than any Kodiak variant.

A lot of you guys are only saying which you think should be nerfed but not stating which you think will get nerfed by PGI first. We can assume you expect what you want nerfed to be nerfed first but the main question in the thread was - Which do you think will be nerfed first?

That is a begging the question fallacy though, the question itself assumes both will be nerfed so there is no proper answer if you don't agree with that presumption.

As an example of another BTQ fallacy: If someone asks "what caused the universe" that is a fallacious question because we don't know if the universe has a cause or not.

Then you simply state that you don't think either will be nerfed.

No reason to nerf the Locust. It's a nuisance but it's not really swinging games.

Have you actually seen the resize of the Locust compared to the other light mechs ? It seriously looks like a mistake was made here if you look at it objectivley.

If you own a Locust drop into the training grounds in 3rd person mode and park next to the Jenner there when you see the Jenner is pretty much twice the size of the Locust you may rethink the rescale.

How is it that 20 tons of mech is sized at half of a 35 ton mech?

Because it's nearly half the tonnage of a Jenner?

You can do that, but when a question contains a BTQ fallacy and you don't agree with the presumption, the natural response is often to ignore the question and instead say something on the general topic. The question also links the Kodiak and Locust together for no apparent reason, so it looks like a false correlation on top of the BTQ.

My point is that the reason your question is being ignored is simply because it is a bad question.

there is more important matters for this game than the locust or the kodiak-3

wait... plenty of threads calling for a locust nerf??? I have seen one in the patch feedback which I can't take serious. I must have missed a few.

Ok, the KDK-3 is a beast but I (finally) learned how to deal with it. Meanwhile I like to attack them in my meds or fast heavies. It's challenging / entertaining but doable but that's maybe just me.

Well, whether or not they should be taken seriously is a different question...

Obvious answer is obvious

This is a internet forum not a court of law or philosophy debate. I could have written out a longer version of the question to avoid that but it shouldn't be needed nor would it necessarily have stopped people from posting the types of answers that they have.
