But, a question with that. Logging in. As in the game? Or does even logging into the website 'receive' the kit?

You have to log in to the game. Logging in on the website, doesn't redeem your preorder.

Can the next 90 tonners be the Sunder and Kingfisher now?



High heat doesn't stop Clan assaults from being the best assaults in the game so no, you don't need to list everything, its obvious.

LMFAO ok i do have to watch what i say .. PUT HEY GOES!!!!! battle master can run with 6 er large lasers with more armor and better heat management then any clan assault mech can .. and i have ran against this build so many times .. inner sphere mechs are more armor and heat management oh and add skill tree i dont think i need to say anything else!

Thanks for the info.
Figured thats how it was meant to be read.
Looking over the packs, looks like they actually stopped offering the banked time for the past half dozen or so packs.
But, still offer it with the older packs that had it to begin with.

Im fine with 30 days at a time, and it not pausing while not playing.
I mean WoW and Neverwinter are both $15/30days and are active 24/7.
Difference between MWO and WoW/NW is theres not enough here to keep me primarily active for 60 days straight.

Case in point, played through the holidays to grind out some cbillls, take advantage of the free Ptime, and buy some mechs on sale.
Took a break for a couple weeks, and last week burned a 30 day block of banked. Im good playing it right now. But with Ptime active I feel the 'need' to play this exclusively while its active. Which in turns makes me take a longer break from it after the time runs out. I still have some 5+ months banked.

Anyway, sorry for the wall of text. And thanks again for the info. Always liked the Blood Asp. And, as I said, value for the dollar, $40 isnt bad for 4x Clan 90 tonners, one a cbill bonus mech, plus the mech bays, items etc. Factoring in that 60 days of Ptime is $30 by itself.

Biggest problem for me, is I dont know if ill be active enough into june/july to be playing MWO nonstop.

Now, that said, if stop logging in before its released and wait until im ready to actually play to log in to collect the mechs, in a sense it becomes 'banked time'.
But, a question with that. Logging in. As in the game? Or does even logging into the website 'receive' the kit?

Logging into the website will not activate the premium time, it only activates when you log into the game client and receive the mechs and all the other preorder stuff that the premium time gets activated.

Did clans really need another OP Assault mech that is Meta ready ?

[SpessMarine]

This is the beginning of the end, my friends. The high mount meta-pocalypse is upon us.

Thumbs down as you refuse to fix the glaring problems, add many more maps, and make CW have meaning

And yet is roughly equivalent to the Hellbringer, a mech 20 tons lighter.

inner sphere mechs are more armor

When Clan mechs have alpha strikes on average an extra 25 damage per shot, why does +10 CT armor on some mechs matter?

and heat management

Hot IS builds can only run maybe 8 external heat sinks. Hot Clan builds run 14 to 18 external, because two-slot heat sinks and lower-tonnage weapons.

oh and add skill tree i dont think i need to say anything else!

People actually did the math and found the recent nerf is only 0.1 extra heat per weapon, which is only about 1% more heat on the gauge on most builds. Having an extra heat sink over an IS mech more than cancels out the difference between IS skill tree and Clan skill tree, in both heat capacity and heat dissipation.

Not really.

I'd provide the links, but I know you wouldn't bother reading them.

The Blood Asp was my last big nostalgia purchase. Hopefully the IS get a few more solid choices in the coming months.

im not seeing the link

ok i will make a er large lazer snv-1 and u bring the er large lazer blr and just fire at each others center torso and see who wins

[Thinkagain01]

Blood asp is already missing armor on the right arm on its debut picture. Do you really need anymore evidence?? RIP

[cougurt]

it looks sweet, but gameplay-wise i see it as just being an inferior mad cat MKII. i think the bane or turkina would have been more interesting choices.

[Nightbird]

Those STs will be hard to utilize if they're going to be such easy targets.

i'm confused, is this just a static test of two mechs standing in front of each other? what range? Mechs moving and spreading damage has an effect as well. A static firing test means nothing... Even still I think the SNV has more DPS.
