I can't help but notice that the decals still bleed through from one side of a component to another. Look at the front of the shoulders on the RFL in the video for an example.

Quirks on Dao are pretty good offensively for a hero....

[suffocater]

I call FAKE! That mechlab runs without the occasional stutter.

And decals implemented without bleeding through things would be good coding. We can't have that. I can't wait for all the errors vertical tilting in the mechlab will bring...

If you guys do a Countdown to Fafnir, I'll buy this hero pack. Simple as that, PGI.

its because the Fafnir's are fat isn't it? They deserve a countdown too!

Love the look of the new mechbay and that you can also include additional decals!

Looks like Solaris will be a fun addition

I don't mind, myself in some cases. Heck, it saves me having to do a lot of work on my Nobori's banner!

The video has a good example of a decal projecting through a "solid" armor plate on the Rifleman's arm as if it were transparent. This is probably because the plate is only drawn on one side of the framework and not the other (probably a shortcut). While this is not a game breaking issue, it is irritating as hell and prevents me from putting decals on areas of my Mechs where this happens (which are often the best places to put the decals). I really hope this is fixed eventually. I do like the "upgraded" Mechbay though.

Huh, they added 30 days PT now. Low sales of the S7 pack?

[Yurok Forever]

Thanks for the solaris pack, but I see a balance in this game.



Stop laughing at the clans. Give him quirks back.



Or do you think that he and his Quirks will break the balance in the game? Do you really think so?

They should have made the Active Premium Time a "Banked" item instead. I can only imagine how many people right now are refusing to purchase MechPacks (including the "Solaris VII" one) simply because they are unable to control the activation. PGI made a bad move many months ago when they changed the type of Premium Time that they were giving with MechPacks.

On other notes... I just watched the video about the New MechLab and Decals. About danged time we got the lack of overkill lighting, along with the vertical tilt needed, to actually place decals plus aim for the right paint job.


However, that is likely the single-but-only thing I will really enjoy about April's Monthly Patch. Frankly, I don't like how PGI has chosen to throw out anyone who needs the 32-Bit MWO Client where the 64-Bit is not running properly on their computer. PGI is now going to have to make note to people that 16 GB RAM is a Minimum System Requirement, otherwise the MWO 64-Bit Client will likely choke and crash on their computer. (I've got personal experience in that department.)

Consider it from a different perspective... now if there's an issue with the 64-bit client, they HAVE to fix it.

Spirit Bear op, pls nurf more, even though the Atlas has like 30% more armor.

[Grayson Sortek]

Cool video PGI, the music is pretty awesome and gets me pumped. I pretended not to notice the bleed-through on the decals since everything else was awesome.

However, I have a question for you... How in the frak do you get the camera to move that slowly? I've gone into practice mode and hit the appropriate F key to go into Free Roam 3rd person and I zoom around like a squirrel on crack. How do I adjust the speed? I tried holding Shift and I suddenly went to light speed, possibly plad, so how do I slow down???

Please let me know as I would love to do a little slow scroll show-off of 'Mechs that I'm featuring in my MWO build series:

Please, please, please send me a response, even if it is a private message, I would love to know how to make nice pans of these beautiful in-game models.

Does Dao Breaker mean anything especially offensive in Chinese/Capellan? Given it's Philip Capet's 'mech, it could have believably been named Yellow Peril or xXxCappyKillahxXx.
