How many days will the event for the free mechs last?

Wow, what a post.

Talking about psychology, what about your pathological hate, and kinked, and flawed, view for this weapon and their users? Cowardize, false, impunity, ... wow. You forgot lurmaggedons.

My attitude towards lurmlovers is based on almost eight years of experience playing MWO. I have playing LRM boats myself, have seen the behavior of LurmWarriors on enemy teams many times, and have even more times been a direct observer of the behavior of a typical LurmWarriors directly from the cockpit of my teams LurmWarriors.

What event for free mechs? I see nothing on the event pages, nor did they actually say how we would be "obtaining" said mechs as either a redemption or free account injection or what?

PGI... can you guys please clarify the details about how we would be getting said free mechs?!?

Before today’s patch (post hot fix) I was getting an extra 10-30 stable FPS across most maps. (120-150 average)

After today’s patch I’m getting unstable FPS jumping back and forth as much as +/- 90 (60-150).

Also got 2 server disconnects today (haven’t experienced this ever before) and heard two other people complain about the same over in game voip.

Load times are also now worse like before the hot fix.

Cleared cache, running config etc. Fairly confident the patch broke something again.

Have you tried the MWO Repair Tool?

Last year it was an event requiring redemption: https://mwomercs.com...-dec-free-mechs
Same in 2021: https://mwomercs.com...day-bonus-mechs
And 2020: https://mwomercs.com...y-bonus-details
And 2018: https://mwomercs.com...iday-bonus-2018
And 2017: https://mwomercs.com...us-loadout-info

I second this, I have no idea and I'd like to know because since it's in the patch notes the expectation is obviously that the event is live. But there isn't one...????

I want to know when/where is the warhorn bundle thingie going down.

Expiring minds want to know!

The event I am mentioning is the December Free Battlemechs (https://mwomercs.com...-12december2023), the Warhammer and Commando. However, I would also like to know if this is replacing the Holiday Bonus event or if that will repeat this year.

Missed opportunity to name the mechs festively. e.g.

WAR-SC
COM-LF

That is not the name of the event. They are simply describing the mechs as such.

As far as they've described it, those will be the mechs in the Holiday Bonus. There is no indication any part of it will be removed.

Why does the whole game feel slower like not just loading but frame rate drop and everything.

I couldn't even buy the Aksum yesterday...

Why nerf Clan heatsinks? Would you guys quit neutering the damn Clans. The Chamber Pot...er Cauldron I'm sure is to blame.

Clans are never gonna be neutered.

As far as I know the HBS BattleTech game has never been officially advertised as "classic battletech the game".

On the other hand, the actual desktop BattleTech had been officially branded as Classic BattleTech for years.





Description straight from the BattleTech novel: "a shotgun burst from the dorsal-mounted hyper-assault Gauss rifle" or from the sourcebook "his Hyper-Assault Gauss arsenal ready to fill the flight path with ... clouds of magnetically propelled flak".

And this is the appearance of HAGs from the BattleTech Technical Readout:

Hierofalcon - HAG-20


Onager - HAG-30


I guess that you can imagine the appearance of HAG-40.


Hyper-Assault Gauss Rifles have never been intended to be a long-range, concentrated damage sniper weapons.

HAGs are supposed to be something like Clan ballistic equivalent of Inner Sphere MRMs (or like untypical LBX Autocannon firing only cluster shots), dishing out spread damage and being most useful in the short- and medium-range brackets.

So, like it is right now..?

Clan Heatsinks and general heat efficiency are worse than IS now. Longer burn times, less hitpoints, less options, less hsl, less perks, less alsmost everything when you think about it. I mean its just general neutering across the board, because PGI for some reason doesn't have the ability to nerf specific mechs or so is the excuse.

One of the key characteristics of the BattleTech HAGs is that they dish out spread damage, similarly how a cluster shot from LBX autocannon works.

I laughed when Cauldron member said that they "nerfed" HAGs when they removed the last bits of spread MWO HAGs originally had.
