Is there a link to a video of that? I'd sure like to see it just so I can make the face.

Youtube It was part 2 of the April first townhall (maybe the 29th) I really no longer recall...and I refuse to listen to them again to give an exact time stamp.

So, I almost forgot about Bushwacker came out... and they die pretty much fast. I wondered and looked Bushwacker's quirks, and it actually has very good defense quirks. Why.... why it dies so fast?


I wonder why.....

No torsotwisting ... thats what I saw in 3 back to back FW matches just right now.

Does not matter. There is an limit on how much torso twisting can save you from ST loss.

If torso twisting was good enough, we would not had these IS XL discussion in the first place.

From now on, quite a lot of IS mechs that come out in 3060+ will have XL engines as basic engines. I hope more people realize how bad the situation is regarding the engine imbalance. Several nasty quick deaths may awake some people....

There is no such thing as a CSTD. STD engines are shared tech like STD armor and STD structure.

There is only one STD engine entry, but there is a StdStruc and ClanStdStruc, but they refer to the same ID

Yep. Buff Std engines for both sides, sure, but buff IS XL too! This is a no-brainer.

Clans have standard engines? Please, enlighten me to how I can swap out my CXL for a standard.

You use a Battlemech

Won't it be grand when isOmnis come out and can't swap their oversized death traps and hard locked CASE or FF?

Undersized*

Most IS Omnis need bigger engines than they come with.

Lol, yes... praise the day when the MWO player base agrees that something is good or bad. Could mean something.

Sadly, the Sun is going to burn out in 4 Billion years, so there is absolutely "zero" chance of that ever happening before then. LOL!

Lol, here's a weird buff to std engines : upon the loss of a st, gain higher top speed, torso twisting, you've essentially lost weight and your engine is still intact ! XD

Cheers !!

I could actually get behind that.

[SuomiWarder]

I read it to ultimately say...because IS XLs are better than Standards, we feel it is not wise to make them better because of game balance...despite the fact that there is a difference between Clan and IS XLs.

Well Sir, you are just about to encounter alternative facts.

Can you put out 'fake news' about your game if you developed it?

I wonder why.....

Well, one major reason is the broken hitbox that causes damage from the front to go into the rear armor, so there's that going for the poor thing.
