Is there any chance of Christmas sales or anything. I've got like 10k MC because I dumbly bought a founder's pack way back when and while I'd like to shore up my mechs a bit without committing fully to the slow grind I'd also kinda like to not pay the current MC prices for them.

Prawned has always been prawned, and those of us who have to play videogames with him really hope he dies soon.

There will be sales and events for the holidays.

The Stormcrow gets to 98km/h so it's not too far off Light speeds.

I am potentially intrigued by 4 vs 4. We've got a semi-regular Thursday night robutt shooting slosh-op here in Oceania, and if it will take us out of the group queue it would probably be a whole bunch more satisfying (and quicker to get a drat match!) . Are there any details of how it would actually work?

We dropped like 3 or 4 consecutive times against SJR and they weren't even subtle about their cheating. They can't detect aimbot. Helios is undetectable. There won't be any wave of aimbot bans, unless people actually admit to it and get caught that way. For what it's worth, SJR aren't even the worst offenders. BMMU is getting pretty notorious for it.

I decided to play a game to see how it would go... well I would be very happy to drop with goons because the match was poo poo. On my team one of our lances just sat in the back while 2-3 lights Leroy Jenkins into their whole team and died. I tried to harass them with my dual LL & MG Cicada, I killed their raven and centurion before I got swarmed by two firestarters and and a nearly dead executioner and died. I got the only two kills on our team, I could have got one more on the executioner, but I lost my LL & MG before then so lost a ton of DPS

I reinstalled this through Steam and I've actually been having some fun pub dropping a few games after work just to play stompy robots. I've recently just been an rear end in a top hat rolling around in a Warhawk Prime PPCing people with my air raid sirens going off on kills. I'm completely awful, but so is everybody else down in pilot rating 4, which I can only assume is the equivalent of blind children with no hands. Is there some kind of cue for when it's safe to fire weapons without incurring ghost heat? I've just been guessing at it and firing one arm and then the other a second or two a part. Having stripped the LRM10 for some extra heat sinks, it seems to work pretty well, but you can really tell when the ghost heat kicks in and I suddenly start taking internal damage because whoops, fired all the PPCs!

Half a second is less brutal than I had feared, at least for something like PPCs. Does firing an Ultra AC20 as a double tap incur ghost heat off itself? I know AC2s used to.

various cheeses posted:Blind children with no hands with LRMs. In all seriousness, they do love LRM boating down there. It's part of the reason I'm playing a PPC Warhawk right now. A little more robust and good range trades than running around in a medium packed with lasers. I still enjoy playing my Cauldron Born, but it's not one of the fancy ones with a credit multipler so I haven't been running it while I try and make money. Stormcrow still does work, though.

We dropped like 3 or 4 consecutive times against SJR and they weren't even subtle about their cheating. I vote that we all start doing private inhouse games when we have more than ~10 people in Mumble and we feel like we're running into cheaters. There are no drop weight limits (i'm told) and it can be anything from 12v12 to 1v1 on those maps. We'll never have to worry about cheaters again. Just throwing the opinion out there. I think it should be a good option whenever we feel like our group is too big to queue with and we break up into two.

Man, I had been holding off on mastering Ravens forever because the 2X was such poo poo. The recent quirkening has worked miracles though- it is a beast machine with 3LL now, even before basic efficiencies.

The recent quirkening has worked miracles though- it is a beast machine with 3LL now, even before basic efficiencies. I sold my 2X a long time ago. Is it as good as the 4X energy quirks? And speaking of Ravens, isolating a lone King Crab on Alpine with my Huggin was great. Killed it just before it's team got to me and murdered me. Too bad they made The Huggin SRM 4 fire so much slower though. With all the internal structure quirks to other mechs, it would help a lot if it was a bit faster.
