Uhm.. why will it take so long to revert the changes? We're talking 28 days for value changes?

Damn, the PPC buffs will be gone soon, play them while you got em folks.

S'far as i know, using LRM80+ lance is considered "censored X2 behaviour" on this server and is a bannable offense

We're patching on a monthly basis. As these recent changes are not game breaking, and hotfixes require resources that are needed elsewhere currently, we're going to live with the changes until the April patch.

Your assumptions are incorrect, LRMs in any size group are not a bannable offense.

We don't discuss or debate bans on here, but I will say nobody has ever been banned for using LRMs, grouping, or grouping and using LRMs. These are in-game mechanics, and players are free to use them as they like. Any further discussion about it, you can take it up with said individual as it is not relevant.

So am i free to bring an LRM 90+ to the stream hunt, or will i be called a steam sniper and be banned within the day?

Hi, I'm an MWO dev. I just told you that using LRMs, groups, and groups with LRMs is not a bannable offense. I hope that clears it up. Happy hunting!

If you are acknowledging that the changes are wrong and reverting them, then why exactly is there no hotfix? Like ... today?

No offense, but this entire thing appears (once again) as if people at PGI only work 1-2 days a month, right before the patch day, and this is the whole reason we are in this mess to begin with.

I'll go ahead and announce it here until I get a post up, we're rolling back the weapons and MASC changes from the March patch in April, and will be establishing a Public Test Server before the end of the month, which will feature all of the weapons changes proposed by the Gulag player group (now called the Cauldron), and we should be able to run multiple iterations of PTS before the May patch, at which point assuming we have a positive outcome and consensus, those initial changes can be implemented for May.

We haven't done a Dev Vlog yet, because we had to sort this situation out, and establish our path moving forward. Now that we're confident in our plans, we'll get the Dev Vlog out within the next few days with more details about the April and May patches.

Thanks for the update and the hard work.

Because hotfixes cost a bunch of money.

Can we get a light mech or hero mech sale mixed into this streamer event like we did with the heavies last time?

[Gas Guzzler]

Any idea when the intel gathering for the Clan booster is coming or if the pack is going to be announced? Or new chassis even?

[minnowzzz]

Hey Daeron Katz, during the last dev and streamer hunt, you had a sale on all the weapons but didn't really advertise that you also put a sale on mech bay's, is there going to be a similar sale this hunt?, can we have another mech bay sale if so

Gas is right on this one

Daeron, when will we see another Intel Gathering Thread because we have not had any new potential variants because discussed yet?

[Nightnovaa]

I only saw one dev on the first one and he was on my team, you should just rename it to streamer hunt, pointless when there's hardly any devs to hunt and yes we know lrms aren't bannable weapon for use BUT pilots have gone out on hunts for other pilots before (IE theBEEF and SEAN) and I don't recall him getting banned for doing lots of drops to find Sean and get him with the dire star yet that's the same tOxIc behavior chaotic was banned for 24 hours before your event. hell Sean laughed it off maybe in the future the same approach will be adopted so the player base ISNT biased against you and might take your word ( and if I got facts wrong then I apologize)
