what about lower tiers?

IF this is how tier 1 speaks I don't think I want to ever get there..

Well... You'll never make it there with that attitude.

Just kidding.

Boy don't take this so seriously. It's just a game and we're joking around here

Don't count on clan EVER getting anything good.

DUDE get the freakin scrolling marquee/ticker bs off my mech lab

If PGI wants to make all the inner sphere mechs clan just get rid of the IS mechs or raise the price of the IS mechs. The IS armor quirks are just a work around the xl engine weakness and speed advantage of the clan xl engine. multiple quirks above 10% are just a complete giveaway. This is just another in a long line of poor decisions.

I think if the Panther 10P got a 50% ammo bonus to missiles it would be pretty perfect. The fast cooldown means you burn through the ammo quick. You really need 1.5 tons for 2 srm2's but don't really have the tonnage for it.

Anyone know why we don't have a patch science sale yet? Is PGI waiting till after the MW5 sale ends, or or are they realizing people don't want nerfed mechs? I am after the Raven, it finally got a little love and I want to share that love, LOL.

You should not wait for a sale to buy a stock mech. Raven is not expensive ;-) I am more interested in the 2023 roadmap!

All you have to do is use google or go to Sarna.net for example


https://www.sarna.net/wiki/Piranha

https://www.sarna.net/wiki/Roughneck

https://www.sarna.net/wiki/Sun_Spider

notice how the last two are listed on the page as Apocryphal

I have read all three + some side info but I don't get this part :
- It's not an official mech.
- But it does have an officiel background story it seems ?!

Please explain this a bit more to me! I feel very n00b now!

[KursedVixen]

TO PGI: Show me on this paperdoll of an Atlas where the Timberwolf hurt you. Why was it nerfed?? it never deserved it...

seems to me they are not cannon, but otherwise, I can't help you, sorry. look at the last sentance it says pretty much they are not cannon.

don't want nerfed mechs so all the clan mechs won't be on sale...

I fully agree, just remove the clan mechs and give us MIxed tech. Or do the rational thing and ACTUALLY DO REAL BALANCE INSTEAD OF THE CONSTANT INNERSPHERE FANBOY STUFF

You lost inner sphere, you blasted yourself back to the stone age, stop putting the blame on Clanners for your own incomptence....

PGI wanted to be able to sell T-shirts with a picture of a 'mech at MechCon, but they're contractually forbidden from making any 'mech image that's not 100% virtual (computer-generated), so no pictures, posters, models, t-shirts, etc. So they had to make a new 'mech that was completely their own that they could own, themselves, and do with as they pleased. Same story with the Sun Spider and Corsair. They got Randall Bills (one of the original FASA authors) to write its fluff piece, and his work is canon, but it's something PGI pulled out of their butt to sell T-Shirts at a convention, so it's apocryphal.

Since the fluff piece for the Roughneck is only about a personal ride that was armed for use in Solaris, you can consider only the hero 'mech to be canon, if you want. Technically, though, neither the Roughneck or Sun Spider every really existed, and the Corsair, while a real term, is used for kitbashed 'mechs of various weight classes that are completely unique and pirate-owned and operated out in the periphery, and the complete duplication that we have in MWO also never existed. (But of course, it's impossible for PGI to create unique artwork & loadout for every single person who buys a Corsair).

Thanks for another detailed explanation!

So, has the Patch science sale been done away with? I mean I get it that people are upset over the nerfs this month, but I honestly haven't seen a huge difference in my mechs performance since before the Patch. My crusaders are still kicking ***, and my Omnimechs are still running Laser Vomit just fine. Oh well, I didn't want to have to grind up 18mil to get a Warhawk, but I guess I'll have to. sucks being me, LOL.

[Staude Coston]

What a perfect Mech balance!!!

Bull ****

IS ER Smal Laser
Crusader CRD-6T
z.b 14 ER Smal Laser 52,5 DMG NO gohst Heat !!!

Clan more than 6 ER smal Laser Gohst Heat 30 DMG !!!

22,5 DMG more als Clan No Gohst Heat !!

Perfekt !!!


no wonder there are suddenly so many Crusadors in FP

Cauldron your mech balance has endless flaws !!!

Z.B Quirks
EXE-C Arm Right and EXE-B Arm left
Base Armor 20 and 10

everything else the same why is that?

that's only an example

With map adjustments couldn't you please put a red outline around the capture circle. if you can't change the yellow circle with ease at least add a red outline to it. Caustic is miserable.
