Yeah, my PC is potato. Also FRAPS locked the FPS at 24 for some reason. There's also a lot of mistakes on my part. Hell we even lost.

But damn it, it was fun.

Looks like a fun match..

What shocks me is.. you still use the directional arrow?!

WOW.. I thought people only used those in a training-wheel capacity.. No offense.. but.. why?

Obviously training wheels. I really don't notice where my mech is facing when on the heat of battle.

Hell, if you noticed, i got blocked by the building on the rear.

I deactivate it for immersion purposes and hell I'm an old *** vet. I typically have a very good sense of how my mech is positioned.

But even as an old *** vet I completely understand leaving that arrow active. Any advantage how slight it may be can help you win a fight. In the heat of battle, anyone can lose track of orientation.

Especially in an urbie!

Cool vid!

The direction arrow helps on the Urbie because of its unique ability to 180 the upper torso and shoot targets directly behind it.

Nice video - I've been thinking of a RAC5 Urbie myself, hehehe...

The rac 5 3 er small setup on an Urbie has turned out to be a real killer for me. I mean I'd have run it for fun alone but that it's turned out to be pretty good is a nice surprise.

Glad to see the trashcan's getting the love they deserve of late.
