hes the the hero we deserve but the hero we need
PGI had the right idea ghost heat is a good thing its just too lax, its needs to be more strict!

more than 3 small lasers boom ghostheat, more than 2 clan small laser boom ghost heat
more than 3 small pulse ghost heat clan is 2
more than 3 med laser boom ghost heat
more than 2 large or er large boom ghost heat same for clan
more than 1 large pulse boom ghost heat same for clan
more than 2 ppc ghost heat
more than 1 ac20 ghost heat
more than 3 srm 2 ghost heat
more than 2 srm 4 or 6 ghost heat (link srm 4 and 6 together)
more than 2 uac5 ghost heat
more than 2 ac5 ghost heat

This stricter ghost heat will make alphas actualy deadly and curb the alpha strikes making them rsiky rather than practical. Ghost heat is the hero guys he just needs to crack down harder on the alpha strikers. long live ghost heat!

i also packed extra double heat sinks into this thread

this is serious post my friend discuss

Even non boats get hit with your proposal and any mech with only one weapon type gets screwed hard, also a massive nerf to lights so how is this not flame bait?

non boats would be fine, they could fire 2 at a time. only lights that would get nerfed would be the ones that boat the same gun and spam. As for one weapon type there are mutliple weapons that are different of said weapon type

Not just a regular no, but a super no.

This literally will not benefit anyone. Nobody would have their experience improve by implementing this. This is a terrible idea in every way possible.

we already have uber quircks and skill tree quirk tree 2.0, we would also no longer see 6 larger laser stalkers

I would much rather have the power draw system.

power draw system is too restrictive. Ghost heat just makes alphas more consequential without hurting dps mechs

nah i doubt the dual h guass would need ghost heat, it weighs a whole lot and it doesnt have very good range.

Just ask all of us to run Vindicators since that'll be one of the only viable chassis with this concept.

1. 6 large laser stalkers.... are rare as it is. Way more likely to see hellbringers, Mad Cat MKII's, HBK-IICA's, etc. ...Besides, they'd just fire 2 at a time. Not that different.

2. Alpha's have never been the issue. The issue is PRECISE Alpha's.. Think about it. They're only a problem when it all goes to one component. We don't need an alpha nerf or ghost heat. We need to not have 70+ damage pinpoint alpha's. But alas, people don't like the idea of their weapons shooting where the barrel is actually aiming, so we have torso weapons mounted on either shoulder magically hitting the same spot... etc.

OP Ghost heat is a terrible idea

it works and was and was implemented but its a bad idea

why is ghost heat bad
this is a shooting game in this game you want people shooting at each other
you want them to shoot at each other until one side or the other wins

you don't want them shut down or die from over heating

find another way

Some people would say the same thing about Dual Ac 20. But not PGI.
