You have the Stormcrow back

Paul tells Twitter, rather than MWO, Clan Scouting is back to 55T


Although realistically, Black Lanner sales must have been low.

what an unexpected and totally not predictable development

edit: watch now the scouting bar will be pinned back to clans which will be used as a reason for a blanket nerf to......oh hell I dunno, clan ballistics, cause why not

Meh. IS has been getting owned in scouting for a month now. Maybe, just maybe its the pilots and not the mech.

cSPL is dead.

Nerf from 6dmg down to 4dmg killed the weapon DEAD.

cMPL is the way to go even post nerf tomorrow.

I am a bit of a window licker so I'll be using a dual gauss Whammy instead.

Can't think of a better opportunity to practise.

Oh and I do love it when I connect with a Locust so I am thinking this will be fun.

I expect complaints on Streaks, posts on how unfair it is to new players and casuals, 4mans farming pugs, and everything else we saw last time.

History will repeat within 24-48 hrs.

Disappointing news to me. I was hoping PGI would eventually reduce tonnage for both Clan and IS to 45 tons. I want the Scouting gamemode to feel scouty.

If I were to streak it would be the Huntsman. However, it is nice to have the crow back. But without CSPL...

I'd just like to state, for the record, that I predicted that the Lanner would be allowed into Scouting when it was first announced. Actually I'm surprised that the Crow wasn't kept banned, but given that a competent Huntsman is more deadly in the first place, straight up raising the tonnage limit to 55 is a light salve for all the undeserved butthurt over the skill node nerfs. Regardless, I don't even play Scouting and I can still taste the sweet, sweet legmeat of battered and SRMed crow.

Time to go kill off those smoke diving players with the streak crows again.

Anything the scr does, either the huntsman or hunchy 2c will do better.

add: except maybe getting legged in 0,3 seconds..

+2... I am really big and double normal human size so this is appropriate.

Have always been at a loss why we would need four on four mindless medium brawling.

The game lacks any depth or real strategy. I hate objective rushing just as much as the next guy but completely useless objective makes zero sense.

That you can 'win' in a slow mech with one intel point is stupid.
