Just finished my turn on the Mex Warrior 5 demo, they got it right. I was able to hit a target at 1200m with an AC/20 by using the balsitic arcs... everything felt like it had weight to the movements...

Prediction: Within the next 3 months, airstrikes & arty get a 20% or greater nerf.

Far too much of the competitive world is relying on them.

Also, Nightbot's announcement says you have 60 seconds to respond on a giveaway - so much for PMing winners.

They already got nerfed. The comp game is running off of an old build prior to the nerf.

Anyway, this is getting amazing. 228 is not only going maximum potato, but they seem to be properly salted as well - They keep disappearing for 'drinks.'

Probably because they aren't pushing the pickle factory.

Why use an old build? Makes no sense.

It wasn't old when they started.

And it does make sense, because if the build keeps changing through the tournament then the practice goes out the window. There's a lot of muscle memory and timing practice in here.

As was said, it wasn't old when they started.

For the sake of consistency, when the tournament starts, the build is locked down.

-Solaris looks like an interesting (If limited) diversion. Contracts available on a seasonal basis.
-MW5 looks pretty good
-Mod Support for MW5 (Steamworks)
-December 2018 release
-4-Player Coop for MW5
-Log in and play on the 27th of December for two free heroes to be released later next year (A Roughneck and a Sun Spider).

Solaris is a bit more complicated... 3 month tournament, with a "patron" that pays you increasing $ based on performance, etc. You can also get contracts from backers (Blue Sun corp? really? don't think I want to work with them) based on performance. Another C-bill stream.

Play on 12/27, get 1250MC, a few million c-bills, 2 heroes in 2018, and some premium time. Very nice.
