Tim Horton's Heat Sinks?

They come from Canada, not as good as you would like, but better than the alternative.

[pizzafly]

We need Wintersdark to teach us PGI professionality about this one.

How should we call it, Wintersdark..... D.H.S...Dat Hot Sink? Is it professional enough?

Or, D.H.S: Ditto Hot Steam.

Dude, you should keep up ffs. Canada no longer owns Tim Horton's. Some large American Conglomerate bought it. So now you can call them the "The American Way Sinks". At least that would be the truth...

Whatever, I was just trying to think of a Canadian tie in given PGI's location.

Edit: Just looked it up. TH was purchased by Burger King, which is majority owned by 3G investments, a Brazilian company. Some how I think the Canadians familiar with Tim Hortons won't get a joke associating it with Brazil. Meh.

heres a novel idea:

1. give all sinks the same heat capacity
2. give the dubs 2x dissipation

[Zolaz]

What are you going to do? Russ thinks he knows what is best.

" Novel " idea... still a bad idea. You should be hired by pgi for balance equipement, like them you have tons of "novel" bad and useless ideas.

Construction work is very methodical and well thought out from the beginning, unlike PGI's way of swinging balance from one side to the other, using dartboard.

Most use established methods and practices as well which have been perfected since men and women started building mud huts. Drywall is not something you just DO HOW YOU WANT, there is a right and wrong way to do it and most learn the right way rather then making it up as they go.

I cant say the same for PGI, why they threw out others work to just have to do it again themselves when these things have already been fleshed out is beyond my comprehension.

You mean his ego wont let him take ideas from other people because heaven forbid someone had a better idea then you.

why is it a bad idea? perhaps your ideas are better than your ability at trolling. but since you didnt post any, im going to have to assume that the only thing you are good at is personal attacks.

i dont want russ to take ideas from me, i want him to take ideas from the other mechwarrior games. its like they are trying to reinvent the wheel, but they want to make it square instead of round.

Cmon, fellow forumers. What should the DHS be aptly named from now on, should the PTS values go through?

Here is the new value, for reference.




DHS Lite? Nah, that's the current version.

they should never have been called double to start with lol

It's a bad idea because

Maybe you understand now

And about personal attack ( well saying one useless idea is a useless idea isnt a personnal attack ) you have nothing to learn from anybody, funny when you know this guy insult people directly in game chat

[The6thMessenger]

What if they would just allow mixing of both DHS and SHS at the same time? And the toggle switch along with the Endo-steel, ferro-fibrous, and artemis just handles the internal heat sinks.

[Alistair Winter]

What?

So PGI is actually doing something to make single heat sinks viable for the first time since forever, something that hundreds of people on the forum have been asking for, including many people in this thread, and yet... everyone is angry because double heat sinks aren't literally double as good as single heat sinks in any regard?

Is that really the most important thing to pay attention to here? The "double" part? We're getting stuck on table top values in relation to the name of the weapon?

Personally, I never really lost any sleep over "TrueDubs" in MWO. Call me crazy. I'm more interested in seeing a sensible TTK and making single heat sinks useful, instead of having DHS as a pointless space tax of 1.5 million C-bills per mech in order to actually use it.

Yeah, i do think that Singles would be a lot more viable now, but then i think the DHS should be a bit more powerful with all of that Crit-slots. 3 Crit-Slots is already a lot. The least they could do is literally double the heat dissipation.

The issue is that they're making SHS more useful by nerfing the crap out of DHS. I don't mean just capacity, I mean that even dissipation got smacked down.

Here is my personal Excel spreadsheet that compares the dissipation of PTS4 DHS to PTS3. There's also a comparison of Universal 2.0 TruDubs at the request of Quicksilver.
