I have had that Corsair out and have it run up to 70% heat and almost push that coldshot button from just the laser AMS fire....other players comment on that it just never stops shooting.
Generally speaking, one Laser AMS is acceptable. Two LAMS can be a problem, especially on already hot running 'Mechs. Three or four LAMS ... Well, as you have noticed, they can really mess with your 'Mech's cooling.

I have not been here long enough to get a good idea on the overall health of the game, depth of the player base so my suggestion might be totally off base. Perhaps a greater heat ramp up for shooting all those missiles, that might make people build more well rounded mechs.
Try standard AMS. Its heat build-up is negligible.

Catching those mechs alone is generally a once in a blue moon type deal.
Do not worry, you will learn soon, where you can expect to find them.

I am just tossing stuff out there, but the quantity of lrm's in some games is just flat stupid, then you get a team that communicates, I have been on the giving end of that, as well as what I think is the taking end, and nothing lasts long....the missiles keep flying till the target is dead, takes cover (hard to do with mechs attacking from different quarters) or vanishes.
After you play some more games, you will find out that LRMs are not as terrible as they seem.
Note that if there are multiple enemy LRM boats attacking from different quarters, then probably at least some of them are unprotected and ready to be killed or harassed by a aggressive light or medium pilot, i. e. you.
