What's there left for me to do?

[Sean von Steinike]

Get killed by something that outranges you.

[5th Fedcom Rat]

Try not cheating at the game?

[Asatruer]

A triple AC2 Dragon?

Well, I harbor no envy.
My Centurion CN9-A can become... Half-a-Streakcat, if I should wish to spend 100k C-bills on ammunition; I imagine that the answer to your question is to now work hard to maintain a 'Mech with pretty steep rearming expenditures.

Die easily?

By the way, any light mech that knows their thing will know how to avoid 100% of the damage from a streak cat (although it's still risky to do it). Just saying.

[Medicine Man]

Ok the streak cat is mean at short range. I get it. But that isn't cheating and frankly I've seen a lot of streak cats and gauss cats too die to my LRM's.

[5th Fedcom Rat]

Was a joke people. Gosh, lighten up. Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer.

A) Perhaps now there will be less need for Alpha Striking teammates while suicide overheating. (not butthurt, merely disgusted at seeing it)
B)Find another way to grief

[EDMW CSN]

Streak cat imo is a lot less versatile than a Gauss + Streak Cent combo

[Stormwolf]

I kill streak cats all the time with my LRM boat, this game would have been better off if we had a Crusader for that role:

But unfortunately it's unseen.

Enjoy your re-arming bills?

[Rifter]

Build a light mech to grind with to support your ammo costs?

[StonedVet]

get rdy to be owned by Cicadas and everything that can run circles around you .. really easy to counter Strk cats

[cryonic]

you dont need to pay a cent for ammo. Switch Auto Rearm off. Ammo is refilled to 75% level for free.

[Vincent DIFrancesco]

Laugh maniacally while getting in the face of trial Dragons and Awesomes and blowing them to bits while they scratch your armor?

Started playing two versions of them so I could skill up my Founder's mech. Holy crap, it feels so dirty.

that is probably only a mechanic for testing purposes, so ppl can keep using ammo weapons still when "broke"... i guess that will be fixed by time...

If thsi was removed Ammo based weapons are unusable at the current levels of reward. This is due to the canonical implementation of ammo costs. I dont expect to see it removed soon.
