Which is why you always keep to the front of the group in slow assaults and always keep moving. One eye on the minimap one eye on where everyone is going.

Anything slower than 54kph and I can't really keep up due to slow acceleration and low max speed. 60+kph is my sweet spot for moving in assaults.

you can do everything right and it still happens though. really depends on map and spawn point and how gung-ho your squirrels are, and how many mediums follow suit.

Probably the times it always happens is Skirmish on Polar and at times Alpine. Everywhere else it has never happened to me before.

Or in FP you always know which map you're dropping on *shrug*

It's so ugly! It looks like they slapped together a bunch of left over assets from rejected mech designs! My eyes are literally bleeding!

So, PGI is changing Battletech that was made from FASA, to their kind of game.

Interesting bits of info from the lore:

-Jake Kalmar mentioned that his cousin Lori had escaped Sigurd. This is almost certainly a reference to Lori Kalmar, member of the Gray Death Legion and wife of founder Grayson Carlyle.
-He was being hounded by a unit called Chloe's Cavaliers. The bad guy in the co-op demo called you "Chloe and Zakari's brood". I'm guessing this means there will be an MW5 mission involving you fighting this bad boy and capturing it.

Arr. I can make it work. But it will need some armor quirks to CT and big sections.

I like the Periphery Pirate connection. Pirates only like mechs with hands so they can grab treasure and booty. Arr.

I am looking forward to speaking 'Orky' and painting my Corsairs with some Red and yelling 'WAAAAAAGH!' over voip.
This is the best Orky mech in the game and no matter how good/bad it is, I'll play it.

I think it would be more appropriate to yell "WITNESS ME!" The corsair is definitely part of the Cult of V8, and will surely ride in valhalla SHINY and CHROME.

If the left torso ballistic is also high like the right, it'll be the first IS mech with two high ballistics.

Keep dreaming boi...... its the left side you know, everything thats left/ west sided have to be the worst, its the "evil" side
so dont expect a juicy, high mounted left side ballistic.. /s

But seriously, It would be real nice, though. I would try out two ultra 10 or something for the funzes.
