In all of the matches I've been in so far after the patch, just about everyone is sporting a Stalker. Yeah, yeah, new shiny things and all. But can't PGI at least force some balance with matchmaking and round out each team. Its bad enough when we Mediums have to deal with a couple of Assaults. Now we have to deal with a whole team of them. Makes you want to spare yourself the grief and suicide while attempting to cockpit one. O_o

stalker is the trial mech though lol.

Eh the only problem i have with the stalker is that it is smaller in game than a catapult.

If "everyone" is currently testing the Stalker, like you lead us to believe, what should the matchmaking do? Put you in a match with nobody? Did you think about it before you wrote that?

Eh, thats not true.

I closely studied a catapult and stalker standing next to each other, the stalker is slightly larger.

I will agree though that the proportions are way underscaled though.

Matchmaker still matches weightclasses between teams, so if you're in a medium there's at least one medium on the other team. Go kill that one. Or have a go at the Stalkers, it's not like they're unkillable.

Stay away from the side with all the gun muzzles and missile bays though, that side hurts.

The same thing happens every time a new Mech comes into the game. Everyone wants one because it's shiny and new, then after a while it goes into normal use by people who like using it as opposed to the novelty of "oo new mech"

[LaserAngel]

I said the same thing when the Cataphract came out.

Stalkers go down faster then a fat kid in the deep end of the YMCA pool.

[StainlessSR]

The bad torso twist slow speed makes the stalker more prone to lights than an atlas, this reminds me of

Fat kids float...

Anyway, it does seem a bit smaller than I was expecting..

Also, I think I'm going to hate it for one-upping the Cat's boating nature. 6 Large lasers, really?

Were you disappointed that this wasn't the QQ post that you were looking for? But 400 views in 30 minutes isn't bad.

hm all wrong. Its more armor than awewome, can have 2x AMS, and has the same mobility as the awesome (except 9M).
