As you can see here, the command console is getting a HUGE buff in this patch!

Will that monster now be the "new" ECM?

It's health used to be 20. This is a nerf, not a buff.

It's about time, too. That thing was way too powerful before.

I'm sorry... Did PGI actually add some functionality to the Command Console when I wasn't looking?

Isn't it just a large chunk of wasted space holder right now?

on a more serious level, would not anything done to the CC apart from removing it be a buff. =P

This wasn't my plan. It was David B who made this crazy OP change.

It's actually a nerf. The Command Console was invincible before. Now THAT was OP... :)

The real question is whether the Command Console makes me LOOK commanding. It's not how you feel, it's how you look.

It's a fair nerf. I completely admit that having command consoles duct-taped all over my mechs was abusive. Smart.... but shamelessly abusive.

Oh, and Gallow. For the record, it has always been your 80's hair band aesthetic that has made you look commanding.

Why does my cockpit look the same with or without the command console in it?

Actually, if you have the command console installed, pan all the way down and right, and look carefully, you will notice a Zune plugged into your mech. That's it. Main advantage is the massive library of 80's big-hair rock. Right into the cockpit.

OMG - this thread is toooooo funny. But seriously ... I heard that the command console allows you to control opposing mechs forcing them to team kill. Really I have seen it in action.
