I'm just going to sit here running the game with an E8400, 4GB, an AMD card, and twenty tabs of firefox. I'm always the last to load in, but I have no idea how you guys are getting frame rate issues.

The C-UAC/20s are better in pretty much every way you could imagine except that they take 1 extra heat to fire. And even if it jams the cooldown isn't much longer than the C-AC/20's regular cooldown.

I was looking over the Phoenix Hawk stuff to see if they had a robot with both ECM and a cbill bonus. I couldn't find one. Did I miss it, or is there no Phoenix thing that has both?

I have the Cheetah Prime I, and it is an excellent ECM money maker. I was thinking of getting a Phoenix Squawk if it had both ECM and a CBill bonus to it, but if that's not an option I'll just save my money for beer instead.

You open CTs and take off arms/STs while other people horn in your kills.

Is that expected for dual gauss builds, because your damage is so precise? Gauss DPS is also some of the worst in the game even if you're frame perfect on starting and releasing your charges. On the other hand, 15 damage to a single component is worth more than more damage spread all over the place. Edit: sebmojo posted:Your video card is poo poo I'm afraid.

Dropping my resolution a whole bunch makes the game look absolutely awful but it's doubled my FPS so I'll stick with it for now. Xyretire fucked around with this message at 03:31 on Mar 4, 2016 |

The whole reason gauss vomit works is because it's an auxiliary weapon that you can keep shooting even when you are at max heat. In fact it's so good at doing this job that they had to nerf the hell out of it. Washout fucked around with this message at 04:06 on Mar 4, 2016 |

Yeah I mean the trade off with dual gauss is that your damage is capped at 30 per volley and it takes a while to recharge. It's all very fast pinpoint though, so you're mostly dealing that damage to a single component, which is really valuable. Combine that with the fact that you don't have lasers leading back to your position and you can pick off components very effectively. God help any light you catch standing still as wel

I'm on my phone and don't have my theory links handy but iirc you can do 6mpl with ECM, 2xJJ, and an XL 295 and go 102 or so? It'll run hot. You can also go 6ml with an xl355 and less DHS with ECM and 2xJJ and go like 124ish before speed tweak. Edit: Also the IS will have an ECM +30% Cbill mech in two weeks, the Archer hero.

Just started playing this game recently, and after playing with a couple Jenners and Ravens in CW I actually started enjoying the game. Would love to join WOL since I am more into IS mechs it seems. What is the mumble info? IGN is darthzeta.

They're making the Grasshopper, one of the tallest mechs in the game and taller than assaults like the banshee, bigger. I don't know how the gently caress the Grasshopper is considered too small in their scaling system. They're making the Zeus bigger and that mech definitely needs to be made even shittier.

Ok, dumb question. There are no TACs in MWO right???? Only ask because I had 3 TBRs blown up by the first hit they took from the same guy who was at least 800m away in CW. I'm talking unscratched to dead with my armor on the paperdoll showing everything intact on the first 2 deaths only the last death showed both side torso blown out from one salvo.. No other enemies around. I wasn't even in the same spot on the map those 3 times and i was going full speed. I have had a few deaths that were bullshit but this is some next level poo poo. Edit: Why the heck doesn't MWO use Fairfight which some pretty drat good cheat detection. Raged fucked around with this message at 12:26 on Mar 4, 2016 |

Volumetric scaling is dumb because `Mechs are fairly hollow anyway.  All it takes to make one smaller is a designer going "Hey, let's put a little less empty air in the torso!"
