Id like to see gauss damage reduced from 15 to 12 but give gauss a chance to pierce armor and apply damage directly to internal structure and get through armor crits.

That reduces the PPFLD but also keeps gauss unique by giving it a solid utility ability.

Could get rid of the awful chargeup then too.

I wish they would remove the charge up on Gauss. I have not used it since they implemented it.

Actual problem?

As long as MWO has a playerbase there will be one segment or another who thinks balance efforts disenfranchise them.

Nah I'm just getting sick of the IS purists mentality trying to drag the game down every turn and chance. Even worse the MW5 game I asked for comes without clans. So it's everything and nothing to me at the same time. NO I DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE TECH IMBALANCE! I think is should be bumped up in weapon and engine standards of the clan and just delete half the terrible weapons in the game. Increase armor or reduce all DMG by 50% globally to increase TTK. I'M EVEN OK WITH MAKING ALL MECHS ONE GIANT HITBOX TO STOP THE PINPOINT CRY BABIES FROM POSTING.

This is a shooter. If I can't shoot it's not fun. At the same time if I'm dead to fast it's also not fun.

TL:DR Standardize all mechs using the best technology as the base, delete the boring old junk, clean up all the IS mechs (they look like dirty junk)

I prefer clans mostly due to pure esthetics. I came from MechAssault. Half the crap people cry about her I roll my eyes to.

The MWO Player Base as a whole recognizes there are problems with the game.

The MWO Player Base as a whole also tends to go batshit insane and practically cannibalistic whenever a solution to a problem is brought up.

What do?

I will if Microsoft brings it back with the news that came from E3! The even better news is they are working on an emulator for Windows 10 for Xbox and Xbox 360 games.

That game was super boring...

Come to the dark side cazdin! I just want to clean up this game and remove half the junk from it. Maybe my potatoes will perform better.

Also I'm 30 I don't think I'm young anymore. (In b4 you act like a blank year old post)

Well if you try to do nothing but hide 800m away from the enemy, then sure, dual-CGauss on those mechs might seem too good. The thing is, the moment you and your SPL/SRM or ML/LPL mech gets within 300m, Gauss DPS start sucking so hard in comparison there is simply zero chance for it to win against anything. Even more so considering neither NTG nor Marauder are fast enough or agile enough to outbrawl anything or run away. Now, if you are unable or unwilling to close in then it is yours and only yours problem, which has nothing to do with Gauss or clan Gauss or whatever.

Sure but only if they delete the junk in the game (which is mostly IS junk) single heat sinks, standard engines, XL engines, machine guns, LRM's, IS gauss and PPC's, Flamers, and I'm sure there are more but I'd really strip this game down and standardize damages.

Why PGI sticks to certain lore items baffles me. This game has nothing to do with lore.

Again I like more guns and shooting things. So things like heat, recycle time, and overweight weapons are garbage to me.

...and no I'm not trying to lower the time to kill.

They are centuries-old machines that use parts that are often no longer available! As far as I'm concerned, the IS mechs don't look dirty/junky enough! Especially the more recent ones that look like they are made of shiny plastic.

Here's an idea.

How about instead of all the camos that gets put on everything (which imo is too much wasted effort) we get new and old and few camos.

You might like old and junk. Which is fine, it's your personal preference. I myself do not.
