Want to buy next two T-Wolves but want to wait to see if there is a sale next week. No sale this week must mean there is a sale next week... right?

To compensate there will be 2 sales at once! But i know what you mean, especially with those 15mil mechs a sale is a HUGE save, which is why ill seal my wallet until either crows, iic jenners or timbers are cheaper. Which will never happen. TIL that when you start a CW with 10 minutes left on the premium timer, the match rewards will get premiumīd but the additional cash from the win wont. Which isnt a big deal, just wanted to know how it worked and thats how.

Sputty posted:Huge CT mechs on the IS like Battlemasters, Grasshoppers and Black Knights benefit from XLs because no matter how hard you twist you'll probably get CT cored either way. Tell me about black knights. There's one that comes with endo and doubles for not much more than the others, while having good arm mounts. Worth it, or not? Next best 2 models?

Kurzon posted:What do you think of the Hunchback IIC? Glass cannon. Oodles of room for weapons, but they're all in the hunches and those are big targets with 50-tonner armor and no structure bonuses. Lots of damage potential --you can do dual-gauss with high mounts and jumpjets--but you have to take care to play very carefully and never be the primary target. I suspect the laserboat variant can make a good ER Large or LPL sniper in CW Basically if your team is organized and you can sit back and support pushes, it is pretty baller.

Their hardpoints are all way too low to be efficient. But you can mount a shitload in their torso, so you can pulse brawl pretty well. You're also as tall as a god drat Atlas, so have fun trying to get into cover from LRMs. Kurzon posted:What do you think of the Hunchback IIC? I have the letter variants. They're not for everyone I would say. But the B variant is like a cracked out version of the HBK-4SP. Quad ASRM6 with dual MPLas (and Jump Jets to boot) make a very nice brawler. They seem a little bit softer then their IS counterparts. I really like them... But that's just like, my opinion man

XL King Crab is okay for normal play, where you can minimize damage to your side torsos. When you're facing someone from the front (like most firefights) then it's all CT. In CW you'll get hosed up right away, because you're often getting flanked, and because of that you can't lay down fire to get people to die or go away.

Its like they have their own gravitational field in addition of being gigantic blocks on top of your shoulders that blind people see without their dog. In other news, clan smoke jaguar is awesome. I dont know why but im getting random vs random in 3/4 games today.

Quad ASRM6 with dual MPLas (and Jump Jets to boot) make a very nice brawler. They seem a little bit softer then their IS counterparts. The reason they seem softer is because the IS versions get +18 armor and +12 structure in the hunch. Yolomon Wayne posted:Problem is, you CANT miss those things. It's incredibly easy to hit either side torso, and if they twist away you can't help but hit the side torso even more. Edit: For more talk about hunchbacks, since I bought the hunchback pack back before the gauss nerf and specifically for the Grid Iron, it's been nerfed too. Is it possible for me to get an MC refund on the hunchback pack? Sent the following: hope I get a good reply! I bought the hunchback pack a while ago, many months, I quit playing and when I came back not only have gauss rifles been nerfed but the Grid Iron was nerfed too. In light of this I never play any of the hunchbacks or the Grid Iron any more and I'd like an MC refund so that I can get something else instead of a mech that has been nerfed into near uselessness.

Good luck on that. I just discovered that i cant have a timberwolf with 3 CT lasers AND 4 srms. Now i need to decide if i love symmetry more than efficiency. Sophies choice all over again

guys, it's obviously not just the same people cheating all the time, there are hundreds of new people cheating every day and they have to keep monitoring to catch them all. Two weeks Or at least... that's what I think.

Maybe if you try bullying them for it, because I tried the nice guy card and it didn't work.

Can't find it but didn't Gaben give a interview once about why you don't announce ban waves and cheating in general. Should just spam Russ with it. Edit: Just looked it up. The last ban wave in MWO was a joke. They only banned 64 people. You could find that many within a shift or two by just observing matches.

So to "elite" a mech I have to fill up the Elite skill trees of three variants and then the Mastery skill? And after that I am basically good for any single mech variant in that weight class?

Welp. PoptartsNinja is making me seriously consider going back into this game. I feel lame and bad and sad that I was naive enough to pay for an 80 dollar Founder's Pack and got the Atlas way back when. Fortunately my new laptop means that at least the drat game should run well now. I will be able to use my old MWO account on the Steam version right?

But you'll prolly want a STD350 cause its a more useful engine.

That Jenner IIC with SRMs over small lasers is mean as hell. Although I popped off two jump jets and downgraded to SRM4s because I wanted max armor. Six and a half million spacebucks for the bot. Pro purchase.

The Jenner IIC with 6 missile slots with a XL280 can mount 6 SRM4's and 2 jumpjets with 6 tons of ammo. It's crazy and even better.
