Just posted today you putz.

EDIT:

And again he just posted

Now can we stop with these moronic threads?


He already linked to my posts that link to those posts 22 minutes before you posted them here. Can we all stop calling him out for something he's already linked to? He even edited it into the original post.

Yes, almost. Still missing the promised reply on PGI's stance about the ECM.

Also like TehCable said, I found it before you even linked it here, but thank you for caring enough to make sure I knew about it

No.

I didn't boycott Microsoft after Ian Dresari. I'm not boycotting PGI for something that needs tweaked.

This'll be my last post on the subject, as Paul mentioned what we're doing in regards to speaking to the changes.

ECM being used on all ECM-able Mechs does show that it is overly powerful. The reason no changes have been made is it takes time to figure out what, exactly, is making that the reason. Is it the lock prevention? The 'cloak'? The range it works at? The weight? Crit space? Variants that use it? That it makes LRMs incapable of lock? SSRMs?

So while total numbers used isn't an indicator it's fine, it does mean people won't just go to ECM because it makes you instantly win. In fact, many builds aren't affected by ECM at all (my Cicada, in particular, does not discriminate.)

So we use that, suggestions, feedback, numbers gathered, watching 8v8's, etc, and eventually we come up with ideas. Then we test them. Tweak them. Test them. Tweak them. etc.

So while I'd love to tell you what changes we've made, none are in stone and until I have something to tell you that won't be wrong as of 9am the next day, I will.

I hope you all understand, we don't do this to be cruel, we do it because there is, quite literally, nothing of use to tell you yet, beyond that we've gathered our data, your suggestions, and are going through testing them now.
