OK 1, ED is delayed, not canceled. 2, when ED does get into the game this will be me ...

Technically speaking, when PGI delays something, in all likelihood they shoved it a deep dark closest up in their headquarters attic never to see the light of day again while simultaneously striking every mention of it in the records until we're left with only a few wizened only MechWarriors who vaguely recall what ED was.

See the promised Command Console buff back in February for more details.

I'm kind of bummed. Ghost Heat doesn't make a lot of sense to me. I liked the Energy Draw system when I tried it on PTS. Only a few my builds were negatively affected by Energy Draw, and by negatively affected, I mean I had to split up the weapon grouping more. I got used to not Alpha Striking as often on PTS pretty quickly.

Splitting up your weapon groups (and waiting 1.5 seconds between shots) means that you have more face time which means your build is directly nerfed, compared do 2ER PPC mediums and dakka heavies and assaults other than the Kodiak will all have builds that aren't really hurt by ED, so in comparison, your build no matter how good it was before is signifcantly worse off after ED.
