Yeah, I've been playing for a while. Never bothered to post on the forums. So yay for my first post I guess.

Can I just say; the new Arrow IV mechs are deeply broken, horrendously unbalanced, and cancer to play against.

Fun and engagement diminishing.

That is an opinion you can have. Why is it in the New Player Help forum?

Because that is the top of the forums, and they want their complaints to get extra views. The fact there is another spot to post this likely didn't matter.

I mean, this seems like similar complaints based around LRMs... Same kind of terminology. I will say, I haven't played in a game with Arrow in it (yet), not played with Arrow (yet). To be honest, if I can't pause the game to do something, I'm unlikely to play it right now, and you can't pause MWO mid match...

They're not too bad, but balancing AMS against a single missile is going to be hard - people should expect a work in progress. It's very likely a reason why the new pack is all Arrow IV and Railgun 'mechs; it gives the Cauldron more information on the weapons, with a broader range of 'mechs and builds.
