PGI's on a roll lately. Heat buffs, stealth buffs, and now this. Shame it came so late.

And here I was hoping the Rifleman would get to keep some torso hardpoints...

I am confused. what is changing about them? are they adding hardpoints, moving them, subtracting them? O.o
or was it just a tooltip/info sheet correction to reflect the actual hardpoints?

the patch somehow added an additional 2 energy to each side torso, which is being corrected.

It has 2 energy hard points on each side torso that are not originally there. Please PGI just leave this one in.

Why was escort removed from Quick Play??

[Mikayshen]

Tomorrow will be a sad day for my favorite Atlas...



I will have to play this and call out in voice that my team needs to protect the VIP.

Maybe because it is an unliked game mode, barely someone votes for?
It is asynchron, which some people could not like.
And it has a VIP with the IQ of a stone.

[dr3dnought]

Hatamoto fixed, escort fixed... I might even get some drops in this month!

[HammerMaster]

Seriously!?
Escort dulled my pain of maps I didn't care for like rube or whatever

SERIOUSLY!?!?!
LRM issue.
From another thread




[Redacted]

Speechless.

Serious.

What are the inconsistencies?

What was the intended fix.

What are you intending to roll back to?

Oh FFS!

I seriously thought we got something we ASKED for!

No. Do not remove the additional hardpoints from the new Rifleman. Already does it have worse quirks than what was initially planned for it, and the Rifleman is, overall, a bad platform. The additional lasers at least gave it some firepower it needed to be competitive.

[Glowhyena]

I rarely do Escort because no one wanted.

I'd actually like to see the stats on that since certain modes are almost always going to be more or less popular than others. There are already very limited number of game modes available so I don't agree with reducing the variety. Also think of how similar the game modes are between assault, skirmish and conquest.

Meanwhile other games are constantly adding more content and releasing new modes. CS:GO is a recent example.

Escort and CS:Danger Zone are fantastic examples of bad content - but at least in the case of CS:DZ I dont HAVE to play it while escort was some times stuffed down my throat by some votejockey with a large multiplier to troll with.
