It would be nice to see range and velocity modifiers given to weapons when you install a targeting computer.

The Skill tree allows you to see the changes on weapons while building your skill tree.

Beagle active probes (clan and IS) show sensor max.

Targeting computers don't give you any info other than % applied, but unless you pull out a calculator or write out the equations, you can't see what the TC 1-8 are doing until you either load up the testing grounds or get into a game.

Would be a really nice addition for it to apply the changes, just like you do with the skill-tree.

It took 10 years to get quirks seperated from skills in this display.

I can see TCs being applied in the mechbay... early 2500s. That seems like Star League technology.

....

Targeting Computers have been in the game since 2014. PGI has had different priorities so far.

So I do not think that situation is going to change any time soon.

There is the entire section dedicated to the feature requests: Feature Suggestions

Oh the forgotten place that nobody except you reads.

If you check that section, you are going to see that many players visit that section and post their feature suggestions there. PGI has created that section to keep this place nice and tidy.

Go play the game, and quit living on the forums.

Thank you for your interest.

I am actually playing the game. In fact, I just had a quite nice game with four kills. See the screenshot:




Of course, I have completed the challenge and from time to time I am working on that Vulcan that I claimed yesterday:



I am having lots of fun both with my old 'Mechs and with my brand new 'Mech.

Actually it's part of Lostech, which explains it!

Lostech as in, nobody has answered the question because I'm wasting my time pointing out things that could be fixed.

There is slight chance that you are not 1st one to notice and point out this problem but as you should know PGI doesn't read these forums they MIGHT read general feature suggestions section sometimes and easiest way to try get something fixed is to get Cauldron interested in your case.
But basically you are wasting your time writing here.

Oh I don't think that post was about epeen stroking but instead direct reply to your:
"Go play the game, and quit living on the forums."

Funny part is more you play the game, more time you got to lurk on forums while searching for game, loading, waiting others to connect and so on.

Lostech as in Binary Laser Zeus prototype?

Lostech as in Canon Cataphract-0X RT shoulder mounted Gauss?
https://cfw.sarna.ne...=20180314020024

"Lostech" as a joke that w0qj made about the technology that is not currently available or too advanced for the current age?

Also, CTF-0X Cataphract has never been armed with Gauss Rifle. The shoulder-mounted weapon, that you have mistaken for Gauss Rifle, is actually Class Five autocannon.

Your original post has no question mark in it. There is no question in your post.

Your second post in this thread also has no question in it.

But enough E-P33n swinging.

I remember that your original point was that I do not play the game: "Go play the game" you said.

Your "E-P33n swinging" attempt - as you said yourself - has failed, since your original point was different. I think that I play the game sufficiently often.

Anyway, if you move to Tier 1 one day, you are going to find out that there are not many T4s and T5s in your games to farm.

We all know nobody looks at feature suggestions.
If it doesn't come up in the Cauldron, or start denting somebody's precious stats, its a non issue right?

Maybe you have not followed the events, but the current PGI's MWO staff is very very small.

It is impossible for them to implement every idea that appears on the forum.

Targeting computers would be a lot more useful if they implemented the ops idea.

would be nice to see them as seperate values too like how it already shows base quirks seperate from skill tree quirks. Btw are clan TCs still better than Is ones of the same level? Last i recall the clan TC mKI was equal to an IS Mk II

You can always check their stats in the game, but if you wish ...

IS Targeting Computer Mk. I



IS Targeting Computer Mk. II



Clan Targeting Computer Mk. I



Clan Targeting Computer Mk. II


Happy to help.
