true. managed to do less than 200 dmg in a dakka kodiak once and at the same time over 800 dmg in a spider 5K. its about much more than just firepower.

Because light must be fast. Cougar is not fast. Therefore pugmech.

Don't let an Urbanmech hear you say that...

My Adder wants me to object on this matter.

Will I be able to buy the madcat mk2 right now?

Yes! At any given time, you're allowed to buy a `Mech before or after the release of said packages.

well, adders are basically smaller medium mechs. quite a lot of armor, same firepower, same speed but harder to hit and isolate hitboxes. they are definitively not as weak or bad as many people think and want them to be. i as a IS light pilot hate adders and other clan mechs that have a lot of firepower and are still fast enough to hunt me long enough to do serious dmg to either my toros or my legs.

Light with big firepower. Too hot To be a serious threat to anyone.

mhm.. the more i look at the 3d model of the Timby MK 2, the more i have the suspicion it would be easier to just shoot it in the "balls" that he cant twist away than to get his ct directly, as with the Battlemaster, Summoner, Quickdraw etc.

Well... 80% I play MWO I go solo. Many times in my KFX-PR armed with 2xcLPL. average 500 dmg is a standard, with a better team sometimeseven around 900-1000dam wit few kills.
It is slow clan light mech with hot weapons and it.. works just great. So.. I think that you don't know what you are saying.. As someone said - it is a matter of a pilot, a good pilot which you apparently aren't (when it comes to the light mechs and esp. clan light mechs). If you don't know how to pilot them, don't say they are bad.
I love Supernovas, but I suck playing them, but it doesn't mean that they are bad mechs.

Spoken like someone who is either just trolling or doesn't know how to use a slower light with big firepower.

btw, these are the *PERFECT* mech for events like the one running right now, because the Light queue is almost always the quickest and these guys can pack enough punch to get you a 100+ match score (provided you know how to use them). If you die early, just hop in another high powered light and rinse-n-repeat.

cockpit preview after faction patterns

Ah! Of course, cockpit preview and animation in one day. Very curious to see those for the new war machines.

Too bad the Mad Cat MK II preorder didn't come with a warhorn playing the opening two notes of the Jaws Theme. I'm more stoked for the energy/ballistic hardpoints than the missiles, myself~ Also, those arms are at least more useful for shielding than say, a Mad Dog. I don't know if most PUG players aim for the crotch.

My Adder pulls 400+ damage every match
My Mist Lynx pulls 300+ (with a SINGLE erPPC)
Even my Kit Fox manages to pull 300+

Like someone else said, you're ether trolling or just full of salt.

Lights don't NEED to be fast. A good pilot can use a slow light with devastating effect.

I don't really enjoy fast lights any more, outside of the Locust with 6 splsr...which I assume you're probably gonna call a "Potato Pug Mech" as well.

The key to lights specially slow lights is NEVER stop moving. Fire, Relocate, Repeat.

One of my CW assault decks has an Adder in it, and it just cleans house.

But looking at your "Top 10 Reasons why" Thread. It seems like you're playing on a toaster. So that probably explains why you have zero success in lights. You want at least 60 FPS in a light.

I a disappointed that there is no acknowledgement in the paint schemes, or "fluff" for the Cougar that it is a Jade Falcon design and it's constructions was commandeered by Khan Marthe Pryde herself.

Cause how many Jade Falcon mechs/Heros are there?
