ROADMAP UPDATE!
Greetings MechWarriors,

It's time again for an update on the coming months of content currently planned for MechWarrior Online. Let's take a look at what's coming in March, April, and May!

March
Patch Date: March 19th

  • Free Corsair Hero Variant for 2018 Winter Holiday Giveaway

  • LRM Weapon System Changes 
     - The numerous changes tested through the "Long Range Missile Update" PTS series will go live with the March patch.  The changes will be very similar, but not exact to the changes tested in PTS 2.1. For those unfamiliar with the PTS, these changes focus on a change in behavior for LRMs to have different firing patterns dependent on if a target is within LOS or not.  With additional changes that affect the Lock-On System, AMS, TAG, and NARC.
  • Feature Improvements:
     - Updating the End of Round Screen to display the amount of time a player has spent on a capture point.
     - Showing Sensor Range in the Mech Stats Panel.

     - Allowing players to activate a partial amount of Premium Time through the client as well as showing both active and banked Premium Time remaining.
