This drab color looks nice, suddenly I like all mechs being painted equally by default (Noticed that on my Jenner, I know that Catapult was fixed before this patch and I hope Awesome too isn't yellow anymore?) and this default color blends well enough. All set for camouflage introduction.

Beautiful.

I can only run LOW graphics and minimum resolution with my sub-minimum rig and still get mid-twenties FPS. All the maps thus far do not look that great to me.

The new version of Forest, however, looks great. It it sharp, well-defined and a treat to the eyes.

Whatever you did, keep doing it.

Thanks.

In a single patch you nerfed heat efficiency, increased heat generation of lasers and buffed LRMs.
The game is effectively a LRM fest now. Sorry but after a week of not being able to play due to constant crashing I enter into a game like this? I have no chance against light mech.
I'm done, i'm out. Off to paypal for a refund.

Yeah I am very close to this myself. I could use the money to invest into a game that actually plays like HAWKEN or Planetside 2.

You know they broke missiles right? We get no credit for the damage we do.

Get Natural Selection 2. Its a fantastic game, much much better than this. Well worth your money.

Actually the fix to the heat sinks (remember they were not working last patch) and the change to 1.4 has made my stuff run cooler. Don't know what everyone is ******** about honestly. Only thing I have noticed that bugs me is artemis armed LRM's do not register dmg in the end game stats.

dou·ble/ˈdəbəl/

Adjective:Consisting of two equal, identical, or similar parts or things.

Noun:A thing that is twice as large as usual or is made up of two standard units or things.

Ok, now for "double" heatsinks. They take up 1 ton, 3 slots, and dissipate 1.4 times as much heat as a regular heatsink. Thats 1, 3, and 1.4... notice that none of these are, or have any obvious relation to 2, the number that is associated with double.

Now, if you are going to throw Battletech out the window and come up with these imaginary heatsinks for "balance" that are only 40% better than a standard heatsink at three times the slot cost, why don't you call them something else. Double is a word that means 2 and double heatsinks are these things that exist in Battletech that are as effective as TWO heatsinks.

I don't care if you leave them at 1.4 heat dissipation, just change the name so you aren't making battletech fans think that real double heatsinks were implemented.

On a side note, it will be humorous when they try to implement clan mechs and Warhawk and Nova Cat pilots are dying self-inflicted heat deaths on their second salvo.

this game is a BETA it's all subject to change, all i'm getting out of this post is: WAAAAAGHHHHHH i'm a cry baby! if you have no patience to improve what is very quickly becoming a really great game then perhaps you have no place in a beta.

You are assuming that by doubling something that it is twice as efficient. Not always the case. So far they still work a lot better then standards by a large margin.

Take your own advice instead of acting infantile. This is beta...report your observations in a mature manner and wait for the Devs to respond and/or work their magic. Simple as that.

Pretty much done playing, my Jenner went from reasonably heat balanced with 16 DHS, to shutting down after 6 volleys on a snow map.

6 volleys isn't a lot when you're just using small pulse lasers. Especially considering how many heatsinks I'm ******* mounting.

I'll check back some other patch, I guess. Maybe when a JVN-10N Javelin comes out, Streaks still work right?

^ What is being doubled? He is assuming nothing, he is very accurately stating that nothing is doubled here at all.

OP is Chicken Little. I'm not giving up on the game but not playing this version either. I'm out until the next big patch.
