you do know what this means right? The Clan toys will be better than the IS toys and somehow it will be our fault

[Rhialto]

What about those 2 problems?





I've seen another mech with similar shadow problem but didn't bother to take note of it.

My only fear, the new March 'Mech Packs being like the Steam packs, cross-tech...

[Ovion]

Please, with this time jump, include the weapons we're already missing:


There'll be absolutely no reason to not have them, along with any other shiny new toys.

I like the Hero first, followed by variants of the old days better. However, with the new skill trees, we don't need variants to master the one we want to pilot anymore. This changes the possibilities a lot, and probably part of why PGI has been in a discussion about new mechs lately. The good news is that some mechs that have only one version before the Jihad or Dark Ages, let's say, can be released.

Bad news for the old release model is that they're investing artist time into a mechs that may make or may not get returns without the options multiple variants may bring? (of course, future releases could include any number of upgraded/new variants of all mechs) Oh, to be a fly on the wall!

It's the FLEA.

Sink money and time into MWO, for ever.

Kodiak claws don't bob with the rest of the shadow.

– along with a reduction to Clan XL Engine Cooling Efficiency in the event of Side Torso destruction; bringing the total efficiency penalty from its current 20% up to 40%.

ROFL!!!!!!!!! So those who were diehard against making the isXL with slightly different penalties...ROFL...

I need another fraking sixpack...

Edit.. and if PGI continues down this road, if that is not enough imagine a 30-40% movement penalty...

I'm ok with Vague at this point and happy about monthly single packs going away. I was spending entirely too much cabbage on them.

The new skill tree has me worried. I'm partially excited by it, but its all in how they implement it and how they let us manage and change it that worries me. I guess I'll find out next week.

Excited to have more IS weapon options for LBX and UACs and SSRMs!

There's a lot of words, but no substance.

Next time PGI, don't say anything. Then it really can be of "no substance".
