Do quirks still apply in the event queue matches?

Yes, all quirks and skill tree are still applied, just the loadout is stock.

Honestly, I keep my mouth shut about everything these days. But MWO isn't built for these kind of mech restrictions. Production year is not a part of the MWO info card. This event is hard as hell to navigate with L,S,C, and F variants. Stock is, fine I guess. But, not what anyone comes to MWO for. It's just not what we do around here, like aiming with dice we're better then that.

I'll be the first to agree to mechlab flexibility and fps aiming sure. That said, the theme was to pay tribute to TRO3025 and experiment with the stock setting in EQ. The list of mechs will expand if this comes back in the future. This is merely a test using the temporary nature of EQ.

Some people: "stock is a fun potential one off mode"
Loreheads: "we want stock mode for TROO MECHWARRIOR."

a few people in this thread: "HOW DARE YOU"

wtf

I am really enjoying this EQ. Sadly, I do not have all of the variants as I never really bothered with some of the "lesser" ones. So more variants would sure help.

That said, there is one thing that I want to suggest for the next version of this EQ... please give the mechs a speed buff. Only the speed buff and nothing else. Moving at 32 kph is really tedious. Other than that, top marks.

Thank you to whomever created this event! My stock dreams are coming true! The only way to make it better for me would be to add the PHX-1. But I love this! So fun! Makes you have to be creative about how to best use the old school tech. Thanks again!

This is genuinely fun. The GRF-1N is fun in stock mode. Of course currently all I can drop in is that and the Locust 3V but jompy boi is fun.

That's why its in event que, not the main game. I, for one, enjoy the restrictions.

HBK4P and Wang were super strong that run I noticed. AC20 ain't nothing to mess with

What are the Conquest tickets for?

Very funny EQ - endless waiting for drop.

[HammerMaster]

I wish 3025 stock mode was more...permanent. Maybe 3028. LostTech is cool.
Clans! Ruining Battletech since 1989.

Excited to play it but super confused why there is a 6 hour gap in the queue schedule in the middle of a Saturday 😶

I believe Adder, Artic Cheetah, Shadowcat, Huntsman, Ebon Jaguar, Gargoyle are missing from the clan ones and instead we get Trials with meta builds as their stock and Legends with meta builds as their stock lol. for IS I did not notice any legends or stock but I did not try to play them and for missing IS mechs iirc we were missing Commando, Firestarter, Flea, Panther, Spider, Assassin, Blackjack, Cicada, Dervish, Enforcer, Hatchetman, Phoenix Hawk, Trebuchet, Vindicator, Vulcan, Wolverine, Archer, Cataphract, Champion, Jagermech, Orion (although not missed cause of the quirks), Quickdraw, Rifleman, Thunderbolt (not sure about this one), Charger, Cyclops, King Crab, Longbow, Mauler, Nightstar, Victor, Zeus and many missing variants on the mechs we did have.
