One question, are you guys adding in the "headshot" audio in post after you record the video or is there a way to mod the game itself?

Hello,

It's a sound pak. One of my old wingmates sent it to me; but I don't know where it came from originally.

sometimes i wish mwo had an announcer voice like unreal tournament. except duncan fisher. keep that in mind for post clans pvp mechwarrior product (aka mwo2). just call it mw5: solaris. but more mwll/mw4 style solaris than what was done in mwo.

I tried out the Adder-Prime So8 the other day and wow, people really are discounting headshots as a real threat with how low they put head armors on to get blasted by 2C-ERPPCs.
Especially while they're running facetime loadouts like RACs, beamers, or the like.

God forbid anyone actually practices with 2-3HPPC loadouts.

run a warhammer thats 2 hppcs and 2 lppcs. technically you could just run four standard ppcs and eat the ghost heat. i also like 4x ac10s, any 40 point is enough to splatter headspace. better if its an all arms loadout which the warhammer does. but with ppcs you have to do it right the first time or you will be too hot for a second shot. lasers can do it with the right duration quirks, but ive never really evaluated their ability to get head shots reliably, though i have done so on shut down or still opponents.

Guess what the thunderbolt trial mech has

Based on my results last month, I decided to make a run at Guillotine. I'm sitting at 60%, so it's going to be a bit.

Managed to get 78 headshots in the next 30 days, and recorded my progress.

And dang, notice that in night mode the cockpit is a slightly different shade of gray. That really sticks out. But more importantly is conditioning with almost always aiming for the cockpit area instead of general center mass, and only a few of were shutdown.

Nice job!!

For those against it, PGI could have set it up to spread the damage. Kesmai in the previous MPBT iterations were able to code it in, and that was over 20+ years ago. .

God what I would give to have the old Kesmai team takeover MWO.

I'm pretty sure I got a headshot against a LRM Warhammer the other day when I managed to catch it off-guard with Gausszilla. I was within the 'mech's minimum range and I just kept aiming at the head area. Either way the 'mech was taking 30 points of damage to the CT on a miss. Then I got them in the head before their CT structure went red.

I only wish I could run down LRM boats more often like that, and in a slow 100-tonner no less
