What Net Debuff? Not only is the indirect lock-on time dependent on how close you are to the target, but also do the LRMers that go get their own lock, gain the advantage of having a Tag without needing a tag. Which means over all a lot more mechs will be buffed as you don't need to have a high energy mount anymore, so you can paint people with Tag.

So how is any of this a debuff for the people 'in the thick of it' as you put it? This new mechanic does discourage you from sitting at 900meters, waiting for a lock.

You have to explain to me what about any of this is a debuff. If you have a direct line of sight you might actually be able to use the LRM to hit targets on top of HPG or in the HPG basement... the way i see it they made life so much easier for the people 'in the thick of it'.

Even if you loose LOS while being 'in the thick of it'... you still benefit from faster locks, because you are closer to the target.



That depends on the Tripple AMS Mech you are going to use, and given that, if i understood it properly the tripple AMS mechs got nerf'd you could just settle for a double AMS mech, like a Cyclops, Battlemaster, Sunspider and a few others.

Debuff as in people won't risk locking up their own as the benefits of staying out of LOS creeps up to being as good as being IN LOS.
NO ONE SANE wants that.

--- Bug #3 ---

When going through a Loading Screen transition, the Map Name & Game Mode are no longer displaying in the correct MWO Font. Don't know who blew that, but I would like the other Font back please! :blink:

The Map voting options shouldn't ALL be the classic maps as one group. Mix them in with the other map mixes.

Four AMS in close vicinity are enough to completely stop a sixty tube group shot of clan LRMs.

You need to add Dinamic Daylight into the Classic maps, adding 2 maps that are the same is not cool anymore

You also need to UPDATE those classic maps, because they are 8 vs 8 maps and gameplay will have some ugly/weird dinamics, thats why you changed them to the newer ones, remember? . Why not updating them like Snow Canyon Network in the dev roadmap for next update?.
Also you didnt updated the Physics of the Trees, they dont Fall.

So Clasics maps are ok, but this is too muchInconsistency

The classic maps were originally 8v8 but they had been used for 12v12 right up until they were removed. The biggest issue was on a few of the maps, depending on what side you were on, you could shoot the enemy spawn from load in (I don't think that was ever fixed). The frozen city day map is actually slightly different than frozen city night as well other maps that have a "winter" version were slightly different from their non-winter version. The differences are very minor, they are hard to notice/easy to miss.

That's... really close to what I've wanted done to the LRM system for years now. It'll be interesting to see how it works in practice.

PS: Elo is not an acronym, and does not require full upper case letters. =)

I've just noticed something: the "Patch feedback" subforum is currently called "Patch notes" for some reason.

Oh dear! Thank you so much for bringing in the old maps!
They play so much better than the new ones. So much more fun.

Please, bring back the old Caustic and River.

New maps have so less distinct areas, and are so visually cluttered.

PGI, return to your roots. This is where you were the strongest.

That's why they felt so small. Was surprised how fast we hit the enemy team. Posted Image
