Okay, general sweep-through, added stuff on Artemis and forum sections.

The only mech not listed in the ECM section is the Spider-5D.

If it's yellow, it's not jello.

How do the AMS work?

[BananaNutMuffins]

For all new members everyone that is looking to buy camo make sure you DO not buy the 750mc option as to it is only able to be used for one mech type and is non refundable it is only there to screw you out of your money since it costs 10 times what a single use camo option and there are no varients of mechs that have 10 mechs.

thanks for the info but the thang that sucks with this is there is no real organization. so it is not easy to work as a team lol. i think once they make it easier to make clans work on the web site it will make people come together more. but hey what do i know lol.
Thanks,

The 750MC Camo Option lets you put the Camo Pattern on all Mech Variants of that Chassis Line, and you can remove the Camo and re-apply it at-will; the old Camo pricing Scheme prevented you from re-applying camo unless you paid for it each time you sprayed it on. Now you have the choice of a 1-time use for a smaller fee, or the 750MC permanent unlock which is the better deal if you want to apply the camo to more than 1 variant of that Chassis Line and change your colors Camo Pattern frequently.

The Devs are working on an in-game VoIP option that will greatly help Pick-Up Game teams work together. Also, many people forget to use the BattleGrid, even though it can be used to give pin-point accurate directions and instructions to the team by use of issuing waypoints with attack/defend icons and such.

If you equip an anti-missile system to your Mech (and you remember to add at least 1 ton of ammo ;-), then your Mech will automatically attempt to shoot-down incoming enemy missiles. The system will engage both unguided and guided missiles, but it won't be able to shoot down missiles that are too close to you, so if someone is circling around your Mech while firing StreakSRMs, then AMS will not avail you. It works best against enemy LRMs.

The AMS system can be used to provide your nearby teammates with protection, as it will engage missiles that are fired at your teammates. You can even hang out around enemy Missile Support Mechs and shoot their missiles down right at the source.

[JC Daxion]

did i miss a part about targeting? I was trying to figure out how to target different mechs, LIke jumping between a few close mechs, or cycling outwards, Or grabbing the closest, or lock the one you are looking at.. I might be blind.. so if it exists already please direct me to the right place.

thanks a bunch, and as for the rest, this is great material.. helped out a bunch.

Right now, Targeting comes down to just cramming the "R" button... it'll automatically target the closest enemy Mech to your Crosshair. You can also untarget enemies by clicking "R" again while you're looking right at them and already have them targeted... be careful about this, you can easily untarget the enemy you're engaged with.

That's because it doesn't exist until the -7 appears.

Somewhere right on the top of this guide need to place the following.

There are only three things you can't do without buying ($$$) MC...
1) You can't get any of the Hero mechs
2) You can't get extra Mech Bays (you start with 4)
3) You can't flip XP for GXP

Feel free to modify the wording or add to the list or whatever.
