leaderboard doesn't ever show results until you hit 10 matches.

Well that was a pillow fight...

That is what the whiners want, more TTK, just tap each other for 15 minutes and that will make the game epic.

They did not, in fact, reduce the duration of er medium lasers from the live patch. In fact they did not reduce the duration of ANY of the lasers except the heavy medium. You can check for yourself.

Playing clans is turning into wastebin wars.

My bad. I have not played MWO since HBS BT came out so it has been quite a while. I thought either the duration or cooldown of cerML was longer than cerLL.

Hm, just jump into dual heavy gauss Anni or a brawler mech and roflcopter over ze almighty Clan mechs for the warhorn?

So, it still more about the pilot, than about mechs \ weapons \ etc.
Nerfs and buffs - nothing, just add FUN to this game, plz.

70.5 alpha MAD-IIC deals two alphas in a row - quality nerfs

yeah but you have to close to 338 meters to pull that off..

[MavadoG]

making IS and clan more 'even' just makes choosing one side or the other less significant... so far the test changes make for a rather lackluster experience... should i play clan now? or IS? eh, doesn't matter

Hey guys, the tracker had some technical issues where any matches prior to approx 5:15PM PDT did not get tracked. However don't worry, if you did complete any matches prior to this time, they will be accounted for at the end of the PTS and you'll still get the rewards if you've completed the total of 10.

Also another update to the news post, here's what the Warhorn looks like:

[ApexSun]

Nice, PTS wiped out my user setting for my normal version of the game too, what a great feature that is.

[Archer Magnus]

Got the 2 mil, but not the Warhorn.?

I couldn't tell the damage, a lot of my 10 games were 4 lighter mechs against 4 assaults. Or 1 assault against 3.

thank you so much Tina! now for me to get back into testing PTS!

[TheMightySpin]

So which side is going to Sandbag harder to get more attention? Will IS throw their game to make their whining sound relevant or will Clan figure it out and bring all troll builds to get some love after the losses? Soon, we shall know!

My test took 10 minutes.

Not much to say except what I already said before.

• A big NO to C-Gauss recoil (that S* is supposed to be a small recoil?!). Problem was never C-Gauss. Boost IS Gauss instead (health, explosion chance, explosion damage, hell,... even damage)

Lasers:

• CERSLs: on the edge of being useless. huge heat is still there for little outcome

• CERMLs: dead. no advantage over IS. has every disadvantage imaginable. (in before anyone says 0.25 (lol) damage advantage, you have to realize that the duration is so long (+ 40%) that for the same period of burn, you're gonna do way less damage to where you are aiming compared to IS... also heat is so unimaginably huge that its just a bad joke)

• CERLL: Nothing changed in terms of performance. Mechs that were the problem with "big alphas" are now even stronger over longer distances

• CHML: was a useless weapon... now is the joke of the century (geographical scale cooldown time, immense heat, no damage)

• CHLL: Still manageable, too much heat for the new damage.

• CMPL: Still manageable.

• CLPL: No one was using this weapon anyway... due to weight, no one is going to put 3 when they can pack 3 ERs (the correct approach would have been SIGNIFICANT heat reduction and CD boosts)

at the end... I have zero confidence that ANY feedback is going to be used from this thread.
This is just another PTS so that some self-centered individuals at PGI can refer to it and then go on and say that their destructive path of killing MWO is based on community feedback.

Remember when they first presented C-Gauss recoil idea?... The entire community told them in the corresponding thread that its a bad idea.
What did they do?
They released this PTS claiming that the majority of the player-base gave positive feedback regarding Gauss recoil. Right to our faces with no shame!!!

Imagine how these new weapon changes do on faction play scouting. All of a sudden the bushwhacker is an assults class with those armor quirks.

[Tier5 Kerensky]

I would have participated in the PTS even without any rewards.

Since the point to the testing is to evaluate the clan weapon changes... shouldn't the rewards be restricted to people using clan mechs ?

Since the entire point is to test their viability against ALL mechs, no. someone's got to be the control group.
