How do colors work? Do they unlock per mech or for all mechs? There's a paragraph saying Patterns are specific to the chassis, so I assume colors work for all mechs?

I swear to god if they make flamers one smidge less retarded, I'm going to do something con mas fuego. We should all build matching flame-vomit cockbots for slosh op gimmickbuild night. Also, I like the current map voting system because you can see very clearly that the new map has already lost that new map smell and lots of people hate it but are too dumb to actively vote for the next-most-popular map so they don't ever have to play it again Iowa caucuses son what Name suggestion: Annual Banwave Kerensky Tujague fucked around with this message at 18:24 on Jan 31, 2016 |

Bolow posted:Yeah but 3xUAC/5's are fun as gently caress to use regardless But triple UAC-5 clan mechs are way better and even more fun. And if people are thinking the cost is different it's not that much more for an Ebon Jag, the Jaegermechs don't come with XL engines, double heat sinks, or endo-steel, so after you add all that they cost the same as a clan mech anyway.

I specced out one of the non-prime variants of the Hunchback IIC with leftover parts just so I could skill it up and I'm pretty impressed with how good I do with it in solo queue. Of course you'll all tell me it's poo poo but man, this thing is a lot of fun, and no one pays attention to you because you're a Hunchback. Shithouse Solo Pubstomper

Huh, no matter which side is blown off it will still do well, kinda interesting. But I'd change the lasers around to only have med pulses, 2 CT and 2 in each LT and RT.

Picked up the Jenner IIC pack, any advice on playing a light mech/builds? Currently using 6xSRM4s and attempting to backstab but I'm not really getting a feel for when I should scoot in. Especially on the more open maps like Polar Highlands.

You have to wait for the brawl to start, and sometimes on polar a brawl never starts in which case you swing way around the pack and try to pick off solo people who are not paying attention. You don't go until like 8 minutes left in the match tho. If you have radar dep you can go harass and run around like an idiot. But if you try that without it and go too early you'll just die to lrm's. Washout fucked around with this message at 20:28 on Jan 31, 2016 |

Sharks Dont Sleep posted:So the Kodiak is confirmed? A lovely clan Atlas with higher AC/missile hardpoints at cockpit level, but less than an atlas? That could be cool if not for the tonnage dumps into JJ. Kodiak doesn't mount jump jets on the main variant (the second variant does mount them). It's also significantly faster than an Atlas (64kph base, it's as fast as a stock BattleMaster). It's also not an OmniMech which means it's fully customizable.

Jenners and Firestarters are also scout-killers. If you are pubdropping, it really pays to gang up with the other lights and pray they are not retards. MWO: Two guys doing the wrong thing are better than one guy doing the right thing. I have to pubdrop a lot because my computer is bad, but I just filed my tax return gently caress yeah $$$$$ Edit: Okay, the dakka EBJ builds I found are real simple, built around the ebj-a variant. It's just three clan UAC5s, a pile of ammo and some small lasers to zap lights. It does look like more fun than the equivalent Jaegermech. Says it will cost around 13.6 million spacebucks.

Being the only sane man in an insane world is a cool feeling my dude Anyway the Kodiak looks like it'll be a faster Clan Atlas with more overall punch but less survivability, unless they give it structure quirks in which case it could be really nasty It will probably run hot because of limited missile slots though. You'd have to do like...C/UAC20 plus two CSRM6A plus a bunch of small pulse lasers Also if the lasers are on top of the claws, it could be a serviceable midrange laservom robot Pattonesque fucked around with this message at 21:55 on Jan 31, 2016 |

Sometimes when you launch the game it forgets how the friends list works and marks everyone as offline or just makes them invisible. Usually dropping or restarting fixes it.

teepo posted:i at least hope they replace skirmish with assault once these changes are made So they don't like skirmish, but are introducing a new map and game mechanics that emphasize fighting rather than capturing anything? It's not like a king of the hill match will emphasize anything other than march directly to this spot and kill red squares as fast as possible.

Unboxing Day posted:That's the thing, I'm not exactly sure what I'm supposed to be looking at and how to parse it. Well Geese, what you do is you look at the list of CW planets, and next to those planets' names will be a number XX(in red)/XX (in blue) Red are attackers and blue are defenders. Bigger numbers are better (on both sides) for getting a match quickly as a solo.

Unboxing Day posted:That's the thing, I'm not exactly sure what I'm supposed to be looking at and how to parse it. If a planet is red: Your faction is attacking, so you (a) want to get the attacker number at some multiple of twelve to initiate a drop and (b) want to look the number of defenders to see if an opposition group is heading there as well. If a planet is blue: Basically the same, but your faction is defending. You (a) want to get the defender number to some multiple of twelve and (b) look at the number of attackers to see if enemies are also there.
