Honestly firestarters are objectively better but some people do better in Jenners. My current deck is all wub, a firestarter with mpls, Jenner K with mpl, thunderbolt with mpls, and a cicada with lpls. It's just taste for Jenners versus firestarters.

The Jenner D is solid for loving up bigger poo poo with the missiles, and the Huginn is the same way, the missiles strip armor then chew them up with mgs. Other than that ravens have a place still but I'd rather see a firestarter or Jenner on my side for the jumpjets.

Edit: with lights now having a critical role in cw I'm going to be rewriting or addending the light tantra. I'll probably do so tomorrow after I see how the new objectives and such work.

What are your thoughts on the Jenner D with SPL/SRM 8 and no jumpjets? I feel like jumpjets are really overrated as far as mobility is concerned, and you won't really be able to fit that kind of firepower on a Jenner with enough ammo to matter AND a good engine AND enough jump jets to clear the gate on CW.

They had to have been working on this before they released CW. The implications for this are huge, during the closed secret CW beta they actually listened to feedback and started working on positive changes. I don't even know who this company is anymore.

I think the utility of one jumpjet at half a ton for faster turns and increased mobility is significant.

There's inter-clanner drama over noble Butte Hold. The two Major League Gaming 12 mans from Jade Falcon, Lords and SJR have been conquering everything they touch to the point where pubbies have decided that they're invincible/unstoppable and its pointless to fight them. They took over butte hold from clan wolf because they wanted to show off that they could have whatever they wanted.

So apparently now before the latest ceasefire clan wolf organized 6 different 12 man teams and rushed the planet over and over before the clock ran out and ghost capped it back, and now both sides are crowing about how great they are and pretty much in open warfare now.

Over Butte Hold.

So it's cool that they released a super cool COMMUNITY WARFARE MODE that is earth-shattering and innovative (team deathmatch vs other players or possibly just turrets), and that they've kept all the super cool mechanics like ghost heat and good design decisions like UI 2.0.

Ya'll are definitely way ahead of the curve to go running back into the loving embrace of PGI and definitely not as dumb and bad as the pubbies you so scornfully mock.

That rules, too bad we can't join the fray. With how we have to follow PGI's designated attack path we're not realistically going to get there from Liao space without taking at least half the map first.

Time to show those turrets who's boss then you can finally shoot the players you've otherwise been able to shoot all this time, but instead you can have a map pixel change colour afterwards woooooooooooohooooooooo

I'm just upset that it took me this long to discover they've FINALLY added what the game has been missing, and everyone has now got their money's worth. I mean it took them 2.5 years to figure out, but the ability to drop on an empty map is really really fun.

How long has CW been in?!?! I've probably missed literal weeks of watching a dropship loadscreen and a planet change to green after.

And you know it's just as dumb to continue to insist something is bad just because it was bad once as it is to pretend a thing isn't dumb in the first place? I didn't play for like a year, man, you know this. It's better now, they're not acting like total morons any more because when Transverse crashed and burned with like $10,000 of it's required $500,000, it seemed to wake them up to the mess they'd made of MWO. If you don't want to play because Paul shat in your mouth too many times, that's entirely fair, but pretending the game hasn't improved and isn't fun is just dumb. And you're a dumb. You dumb.

Yeah, don't do that. 12 man or nothing because it will never match you with anyone. Liao is the lowest population group in the IS factions so there's maybe 20 people in the Liao queue that aren't us. Your options as a solo player are too bash your head against the Fair and Balanced clans with 11 other solo pubs, find 11 other goons to shoot Davions with, or gently caress off.

I'm not sure if the other factions have the same turret shooting rate but you could try joining one and finding out. Or keep whining in the thread. Your call.

Seriously :pgi: made CW happen (in Beta, Phase 2, minimum viable product). Though the CW UI is mostly atrocious. Like literally Hitler. Not as bad as the Mechlab. Can someone please tell the folks at :pgi: to stop optimizing for 1024xdong. Thanks in advance. I can't do that because :effort:

That being said dropship mode has the potential to be fun, aside for the match per hour ratio and the high possibility of turret matches.


And they did make bigger changes to maps back in the days. River City did also receive a big revamp of the upper base etc.
