Wait what you mean the Devs actually play this???? In all my years I have only seen 1 in game and that was while he was in with a streamer.


I've seen Chris play. I played a few 1v1 matches with him the day Solaris dropped.

Real men use ATMs.


No no no, you don't get it. ATM have no arc and that means you have to get out in the open. If you are out in the open, you may as well get locks via LoS. If you are getting LoS you need to move with the team. If you move the the team, you'll need to bring different weapons.

It's a slippery slope man... A slippery slope...

Skilled up ATMs with tag will core a mech staring at you so fast.

Best way to show PGI you disapprove of changes ---> stop buying things in the game!

It took those LRMs roughly 20 seconds to kill you....and you didn't even try to torso-twist nor did you run into cover...

Two direct fire mechs would likely kill you faster.

In my experience LRMs aren't currently a problem, but then again I do mostly play Group queue.

lol cover on that map? Not near the crater on that side...

I didn't bother because I already gave up seeing as my team was getting destroyed ._.

I am serious, ATMs are a "gateway weapon"

Next thing you know, you'll be leading charges, getting your paint scratched and not care... you might even not be the last one to die on your team, screaming at your teammates "Stop hiding!!!"

A slippery slope indeed...

Hang up a second. Kodiak 3 is going up to division 1 while the King Crabs are staying in divisions 2 and 3? Did I read that right? Am I the only one whose experience is the KGC heavily outclasses the KDK in Solaris?? And also heavily outclasses everything else in divisions 2 and 3, for that matter????

In Div2 yes, not in Div3. But moving KDK and WarHawk up, but no moving Kcrabs up is just plain stupid and ignorant. Same as not moving up JM6-DD.

If the CACs were more useful you would see more build diversity. Just an idea PGI.

The best part of this patch you left out of the notes. I had to watch NgNg stream to find out about the improved testing grounds. Thats is a really nice feature, at least it reduces the pain for all these crappy stuff you're doing with balance.

OK, LRM buffs. Great.

But hey, we buffed AMS!!!

Does any one else feel like Wile E. Coyote with a minuscule umbrella trying to stop a huge fall of boulders on your head?

You can be the rain-er or the rain-ee... as I said before, lrms are the closest we have to pure Darwinism in the game.

Removing Command Wheel from Solaris. Nice, nobody answered anyway.

Having more ammo for AMS, best fix yet. Messing with LRM's, not needed.

Sorry if Chris got nailed by a bunch of SRM's. Dev's, here is a hint. Take cover, you are a primary target in any game when you enter into a match, it's kind of like having a being dropped into the general population at a prison with a price on your head. As soon as your spotted, everyone is going to try and nail you over other players. So yeah, your gonna take a lot more damage that the noobie standing out in the open in a brightly painted Mech.

You could use the Target Spotted callout to track targets out of your LOS. That might be why it's been removed.
