i sugest you make all versions of the Nightstar a little more agile so it's can do it's job and not getting raced by a direwolf.
I already holding my hart on the Fafnir preorder guess it will walk 30 KM/H!

So what you end up with is a huge, slow, squishy "assault" mech that doesn't bring anything to the field that something else can't bring better.
No wonder nobody plays it.

With a 310 engine the Nightstar runs at 52.9 kph. The Dire Wolf, all of them, run at 48.6 kph. I mean the Nightstar could use some love, sure, but let's not argue things that are honestly and factually wrong.

yea well so nightstar go's a tiny bit faster but with the huge maps it's hardly noticeable.
it's not like ether of them are winning any races.

the direwolf has a 300 engine
so no
im not saying the nightstar doesnt need buffs
but youre making the direwolf out like its better than it is, and the direwolf needs buffs too
they need to fix the scaling/hitboxes on a lot of assaults. and hand out armor/structure quirks more liberally. because its entirely counterintuitive when the huge hitboxes on assaults negates the fact they have more armor. especially with the current nerfed state of agility where a lot of assaults cant even torso twist.

wel consider the omipods the Direwolf is better and have almost identical speed while the direwolf is a mech of 100 ton.
still think both would need a agile boost it's no fun walking at those crawling speeds

If by almost identical speed you mean 10 KPH faster sure... http://mwo.smurfy-ne...22dc8c97b4ce761
p.s That also has 43 tons for weapons with maxed armor

nobody ever gonna fit a 345 LF engine on the nightstar it would not have enough weapon tonage for weaponry then
also wanna add would you wanna have the same amount of weaponry tonage like the Direwolf you need to use a LF engine 270 which only 46.0 KM/H 2 less then the Direwolf.

Well I'm just gonna leave this here... http://mwo.smurfy-ne...a09a5a0543a6f76
Seem decent to me; as decent as IS gauss vomit is anyways.
Direwolf has got 50 tons with max armor is 100 tons, so with the Nightstar being 95 tons they aren't going to have the same tonnage available for weaponry period with a useful engine rating in the Nightstar....If you want some thing that's going to match is with tonnage available for weapons on the IS side you need to use another 100 tonner like this http://mwo.smurfy-ne...837b42b40ef085b Magically they have the same tonnage available imagine that.

you do know the 9FC is just a regular mech right?. their are people in game like me that only use Hero's and champion versions.
on top of that the 9FC is like a flashlight saying shot on this nice laser that is called my head not very good idea.

Also, you do know that the head mounted laser is not part of the head hitbox, right? Now, can you stop trolling?
