Is the stone rhino signaling a change in strategy? The gauszilla has clan weapons and hardware on it. being able to mix the two would bring an interesting twist in mech building.

SR? No. GZ? Yeah, but it's not what you think. It's not mixtech, the GZ is a fully Clan Annie. As in, it is not an IS Annie. It takes Clan equip, nothing but. The change in strategy is "we know you'll buy something like this". Anticipate nothing but Assaults being put out from this point forward. I'll laugh my *** off when I see the sales numbers for all the Legendaries, if I ever see them, and the Assaults all made bank.

Urbie Derby needs to be a regular thing, this is fun.

I agree! I had fun this time and I really enjoyed it the last time too. My only minor gameplay gripe is the unlimited jump jets gets a bit ridiculous. Maybe scale it "back" to 3x or 4x "capacity" or decrease the gravity (please keep the no fall damage).

I don't know the potential technical challenges, but it would also be great if we could hop into another match after dying before the current match finishes.

Infinite jets was a bit much, especially with all the LRM-equipped hovering AC-130s raining death from above.

Yeah there were a couple ballooning lurmbies that were pretty much there to piss on everyone's parade but overall it was pretty fun.

60 hour average work weeks with barely any vacation hours, still got matches in, if it wasn't an option for you that's unfortunate but I think you are being rather broad brushed.
