[ANOM O MECH]

PGI has already made up a mech. I hear OldBob10025 is a huge fan .

So, now for them to really cement their legacy and create new and exciting cannon, it is time for them to develop a weapon that doesn't exist.

I purpose the Streak Narc.

Since the Roughneck to get some cred actually started life as a robot in universe, I think starting with the existing Narc is a good idea.

Needs to be an improvement on the old or why build it, so give it an 800m range and 1:45 duration.

IS = 2tons
Clan = 1.5

makes as much sense as a shotgun laser, why not!


wait....

Would go great with your idea to not share your targeting information...

Oh.... I am sorry that you were confused by thread. The idea was to be able to toggle info sharing on and off.

i think he means he wants NARC to be able to lock on?
MWLL does it.

They already did. The single-fire mode LB-X and one-missile ATM launcher. Neither exist in TT, although at least there's the Silver Bullet Gauss for an "LB-15X" ala PGI.

Oh, and the Long Tom Nuke. Herb would LOVE that if it was canon.

I don't recall a single-shot ATM... I know of a 3-shot though?

I think he’s referring to ammo types, MWO only has one atm ammo type which is the equivalent of the existing 3 in TT mixed together.

...huh? Not only is there not an ATM-1 there isn't a missile weapon in the entire game that only fires one projectile.

[Brain Cancer]

One missile as in one ammo type.

TT has three different ammo loads with different ranges and damage potential for ATMs, dealing 1 (ER), 2 (standard) and 3 (HE). The first two have 120m minimum range, the third does not.

Instead, MWO's ATMs have a single ammo type, lose damage with range, and have a 120m deadzone. Whoops.

MWO's LB-Xs also "shotgun", rendering it impossible to generally hit with a full damage shot at range- whereas in TT they can regardless of distance, as long as it's in effective range- the round doesn't spray out it's pellets until near impact.

NARC?

@ OP: i don't see the point of homing NARC which then bring in easy LRM. just aim well and it will hit.
Isn't 800 also almost 2x over standard NARC range?

So it would just obselete the NARC...

As tech progresses that happens...IS ermeds for example.

[Pariah Devalis]

Streak NARC... eh. I much rather the Nemesis Pod. :3

Edit: Yes, I know it would be unbalanced as hell and has no place in MWO. Would be funny, though!

Well this game is not really battletech anymore with about 5% lore of the 100's of books they can use, let alone going to sarna and just copy/paste the information for each planet, so why not

BTW: Hate the lore of the Roughneck but the mech is a solid fighting killing machine I use for 1v1.
