Greetings MechWarriors!

We deployed a hotfix today for the following:

• Moonwalker Loadout has been slightly changed & now has Lower Arm Actuators
  
• Juggernaut Quirk values have been changed
• Moonwalker bug fix - opening appeared when removing all weapons in the RT
• AMS Ammo (1/2) bug fix - total amount of shots was incorrectly lowered

What are the new Jug quirks?

[RoyKilroy]

What is the status of fixing the bugs of the new map?

[AmbidXtrousGNOME]

The King of Pop sang it best. Moonwalker, you too were "gone to soon"

[Tirothion]

Hey I noticed in testing grounds the arms are acting like there aren't lower arm actuators on the Moonwalker. Is anyone else having this issue? Haven't tested it live yet.

Edit: Can confirm the lower arm actuators are not working in game for the Moonwalker.

+1 this. I can understand the need to nerf the x5 AC10 builds, but at least let the lower arm actuators function.

Bug report submitted, hopefully they are able to fix it soon.

[My Little Barbie Dream Car]

You still havent FIXED the new map... my ' adjusted ' premium mech is currently STUCK in a hole.. thanks!

[Kodan Black]

Good on the AMS ammo fix, but I do hope the terrain bug issues get fixed at least. They are all over and many on the downside of a hill that you may not be looking for it to be there.

What kind of fix is this? Making builds invalid on a mech people have to pay real money for

They stated from the start that the mech was supposed to have lower arm actuators and that a hotfix was incoming. If you made a build for it that doesn't work now, that's on you. Personally I wish they fixed it sooner, I want my actuators.

...aren't they all kind of marked by Grim Plexus style crystals? It caught me once, and I learned to stop walking through them. It would be nice if they were fixed but I am surprised they keep catching people.

They are on the downhill side sometimes and it isn't always easy to see. Also, we've all been there on server lag and suddenly you are facing another direction or whatever. I do my best to avoid it, but in the middle of fighting it isn't as easy to always be as vigilant.

A map redesign goes a bit beyond a hotfix tho

[Navid A1]

Plugging the slot to prevent 5xAC10 is good

What is actually wonderful about it is that they don't work and give you horizontal actuation. For this mech specifically I should say. Lower arm actuator actually makes aiming miserable and just outright bad if you want your torso weapons to also sync up. And the hardpoint layout for this mech can really use that.

This is how Arm lock on mechanic should be implemented for the whole game.
Do not fix it.
I find this "bug" to be good for gameplay.

[Oberst Jaime Wolf]

If you give a mech lower arm actuators in a hotfix then at least make them work as intended and pls grive let und See the quirks for the legendary mechs on the storepage I would like to see what changes were made. Thx

Ever heard of the mystical thing called armlock??? It shuts your lower arm actuators of and you can still use them if you want.

This frankly is an absolutely terrible take. If you don't want LAA on the Madcat, then play the deathstrike.

[Gas Guzzler]

Are all of you guys saying “use armlock” new to the game? To me it’s pretty obvious what Navid is referring to. Aiming without armlock is much smoother, and more precise. Armlock makes it sharp and clunky, but also somehow requires MORE hand movement to twist your torso. I wish there was a way to lock your arms and retain that smoothness.
