So, in the Mech Lab the right arm shows as having a +16 arm quirk bonus, but on metamechs, they say the left shield arm is supposed to have the quirk bonus. Who is right?


The right arm. The quirk is to compensate for how obvious it's main gun is.
Unless you're like me and roll with an SRM18A and a AC/2, and laugh as people get confused and unsure what is going on as the 'AC10/20' slams a round into them ever 0.72 seconds.

Huh, I guess to me it would make more sense to have the left arm shield be more functional, and therefore more of a built-in armor value.

And being consistent with the same thing done on the Raven?

Naa, to much sense.
It could raise expectations from the player’s side, and Russ told just today on NGNG that he doesn’t like players to expect anything of him.

Now that should come in handy... and even with a cbill boost, yay Posted Image


By the way, the camo looks like a ripoff from the old PCGamer skin, though Posted Image

Cool. Free stuff is always appreciated. Thanks.

Is it sellable though? I wouldn't touch a cent with a 20 ft pole. (Not complaining about a free cent, just asking)

It says straight up on the news page that you can't sell it.

Now to get all the free MC I can before the mech bay sale.

The vid is not listed though. Dunno if this is an accident, but no one without a link can watch it. Which means it will reach ~ 0 of their 1 million followers.

Feel free to create a buzz about it so it gets noticed. Well, maybe this was intended, but it doesn't sound like it from the video.

I've never had a Centurion. Having taken the thing out at testing grounds, I agree with an above poster that the stock loadout is ...strangely decent. Principally with the low-heat weaponry and unusually abundant ammo.

Might have to run it bone-stock for some late-night, lorehound derp action. Or maybe superstock it thusly with Endo, DHS and 3xLRM5 to make the missile salvos more useful.

Thanks for the free Cent PGI. A nice gesture. I'll probably leave this one stock since I already have the free -A(c) from another giveaway. That gives me 4 free Cent's, 2 -A's and 2 AH(L)'s. (Still have my Wang, of course).

Maybe I can run the stock A and 2nd stock AH in stock mode matches.

At least it's already mastered.
