Nevermind. This might breach the NDA if discussed (Not part of the beta, and thus I have not signed an NDA yet but I am not sure if what I was going to ask would violate the NDA if discussed by someone who was bound by its terms ). Thus, deleted out of respect for those that are part of the Beta currently. Sorry for the inconvenience.

whats a goon to a goomba?

Mario brothers isnt covered by the NDA.

Hah! Rightfully so.

I was going to ask about whether or not jump-jetting one's mech onto another mech's head would do damage (Goomba Stomp!), as I have heard can happen in the BattleTech tabletop, but I am unsure as to whether or not confirming/debunking this would breach NDA. As I've stated, I am not in the beta nor bound by it, but I don't want to get anyone in trouble.

DFAs and ramming are currently [REDACTED]

I for one welcome a good Highlander Burial

If only we had the Highlander.

Devs have confirmed that DFA and Ramming is in ASAP with a look at possible melee combat later in the future. As to what State said Ramming and DFA is we can't tell you though.

Non Beta Player to the rescue. A DFA(Death From Above) is when a Mech with jump jets lands on top of another mech both taking damage. The attacker would take damage in the legs and the defender would take damage to the face or cockpit. Hopefully the attacker takes less damage than the defender as in most melee combat.

Oooh... Heheh... That's fun news.

Thank you all for answering my question to the best of your permitted abilities. Hopefully Highlander Burials will be possible on release!

Get into your Commando, ram an Atlas at full speed and you will get a good impression if stomping is implemented or not :-)
