#Ash I tried sending a message but was unsuccessful.
I'll just paste here.
I'll just do this here rather than continue to hash it out in unconstructive forum.
You sir are in a unique position to have your input directly to the man's ear.
You have the unique position of your perspective and your accolades.
My issue is that your circle does not include all gameplay.
I have already expressed to you that you have solid ideas but I haven't seen ideas that address gameplay that includes lore in a reasonable fashion .
All weapons should shine in their own way. The LRM issue particularly.
I understand as you said these need to be low effort fixes but at the end of the day the free c3 lockon was failed from the start.
The mini-fix that populated for a few days is a start but needs to be wrangled by who can lock on( in Los, out of Los if target spotted button/tag/narc)and if your out of LOS well it's gonna be a huge gamble on efficacy. In LOS should be faster speed insta-lock and lower arc. (Turrets are non targetable. It can be done)
This is directly to address the parasitic 800 meter sit back game play that ALL of us (meat and potatoes +comp guys) rail against.
All I'm saying is there needs to be an equitable solution that equally addresses balance , usability AND source material.
Again you have the man's ear and ALL of us need to be heard not discounted.
For me as MWO moves more away from source it's just BattleTech wrapper on a no name game.
Thank you for your time sir.
Edit : Will clean up formatting shortly. Working off of phone.
