I understand being rocked by an AC20 but its a bit much when someone mounts 3 AC5s or UAC5s and chain fires them and im rocked to the point that i feel like im in an Earthquake simulator. All anyone can do is just stop and let the enemy kill you at this point. Its a really bad mechanic with the camera shake that dramatic.

I think its because there is only one "degree" of weapon knock right now, which is why an Ac2, Ac5, SRM2, LRM20, AC20 all produce the same knocking effect. It just so happens that right now the faster rate of fire weapon systems knock you more because of it.

Give it time and they'll add different levels of weapon knock to compensate for the different weapon sizes n' ****.

No, not in yet but they are moving in the right direction it looks like.

thank GOD lol

Just ran another game and ran into 5 Cats all running some form of AC and or streaks and its just getting to the point that I cant play because of the camera knock all over the place. I dont understand why they even messed with this. It was good before this last patch.

ok... this is getting out of hand. with every match do we have to have full teams all exploiting the next broken thing? First it was speed bot everything, than laser boating, than LRM boating, than Gauss cats everywhere, than streak cats... now its the camera knock from streaks and AC anything and everyone is on that bandwagon. Next Tuesday will be full ECM teams everywhere. Can we please get some legit fun team tactical games going or is it just going to be every patch "lets exploit the next broken thing"
