You definitely sound like a miserable f*ck who should go play something else.

I'm having alot of trouble with the x-pulse it seems every game i'm killed by one.

Yeah...these HAG's are Evil and Ugly.

But I think the BC's are even worse. Especially on those mechs with Large HSL quirks.

[C337Skymaster]

So now that we have HAGs, X-Pulse, Binary Lasers, ATMs, Rotary AC/s, Heavy Lasers.... when do you think we'll be getting reactive and reflective armor?

[KursedVixen]

is there something wrong with the Hyper assaul guass aiming I can't seem to hit anything very well.

You DO realize that both new legendaries don't have ANY quirk that could be seen as "outlier"?

Outlier for the viper is So4 and So6

Ok. Go play a different game if you hate this one so much. Mmls could get added at some point, but you don't need to be a pissy baby when they don't add your favorite weapon day one. This game isn't even based off of lore, at all. You realize that, right?

PGI has not managed to implement functional LBX Autocannons with switchable slug / clustershot ammunition.

And since the basic in-game purpose of MMLs is to switch between SRMs and LRMs ... We are out of luck here.

[Mochyn Pupur]

Whilst everyone is moaning about, sorry, discussing the new weapons and and quirks bork, just wondering what rabid induced thought process decided to change Emerald Taiga map by dropping more buildings in that force even narrower transit channels that allow the sniper/long range weapon mechs to wreck havoc? Map really didn't need messing about with, certainly not when escape channels are now only accessible by lights due to the placement and gaps of the new buildings . . . beginning to wonder if the devs/p-pot members understand anything about map design (actually, nah, pretty certain they have zero idea at all).

Currently next month.

On a separate note, I've added all the new Weapons to the Science Sale.

I was mostly wondering whether there would be a hotfix, seeing as Moonwalker LAA got added pretty quickly. I think BLC HSL affects more mechs, but I suppose there are more factors that go into it.

probably the biggest reason... ammo swapping does not work they could go with the route they went with clan LBX and have a seperate Solid slug gun ,but to do that wtth MML would just make it useless....just use srms or lrms.

Just fancy name for the already existing Hero 'Mechs. Nothing new here.

Steel Shanks, on 22 August 2023 - 04:49 PM, said:

X-Pulse lasers were in MechWarrior 3, MechWarrior 4 and MechCommander. It is no big surprise that PGI has added those too.

The Mektek's mod of MechWarrior 4 added Blazers too (I think).

Only a small number of people plays Faction Play. For PGI it makes non sense to invest in it too much - big costs, uncertain (read "negligible") returns.

If you say so.

I believe it was Mark Nicholson (or maybe Matt Newman) who said that PGI no longer cares about eras and such things. If a 'Mech has weapons and equipment that are included in MWO, such 'Mech is a fair game, no matter what era it is from.

Because big studios are already queueing to get their hands on this niche IP with a small playerbase.

Isn't that the purpose of the HAG? Aim in the general direction of a mech and fling a thousand bullets at it.

Actually, MWO is based heavily on the lore, although they've been deviating more and more in recent years (to the chagrin of a great many of us).

New HAGs are way way OP.

[Hawk819]

Love the new Weapons, but would love to see PGI make inhouse weapons that are not canon. Just to add some more spice to the game.

Example:

for Clans:

Heavy Pulse Lasers
ER Heavy Lasers
AP Rail Guns
Rail Cannon
Pulse Cannon
Anything Missile-wise
Light Autocannons: 2/5/10/20

Inner Sphere

Rail Guns: 3/6/9 (various weights/sizes)
Ion Cannons 2/4/6/8 (various weights/sizes
Plasma Rifles
Heavy Missiles 4/8/12 (various weights/sizes)
Chemical Pulse Lasers

Just some ideas is all.

Yeah, you have to hold the cursor perfectly still on target (and track moving ones), after holding the button down to trigger the firing mechanic. Can be tricky to master at first.

How? have you been killed by one? or are you just tired of being hit by them? They have charge you can't fire more than 2 they are not very good at range for anything other than saying Hi pretty much, they're kinda hot as well..

Of all the new weapons i've been killed by the HAG the least.

LOVE the new weapons, a belated addition to the game! Now just have to add melee, streak LRMs, thunderbolts and this game can experience a new renaissance.

PS

I do fear PGI might neef them sooner than later, some of this weapons (x pulse laser for example) do feel like they make the other laser weapons kinda obsolete, the moment to moment fight do geel more intense though, and previously not so great mech feel more viable now, Im kicking *** with the TDR 5S and that didn't happen before.
