You literally can't escape the cheating anymore. I used to be able to play early in the day/afternoon and there would be few to no people murdering me with gauss vomit in 2 alphas, but the last two times I've tried to play I just run directly into someone aimbotting within 3 matches.

I believe you when it comes to the original iterations of battletech. They do look like they could be some form of future ordinance a military would come up with. Which is neat. But then there are loving mechs that literally look like birds, bears, and a god drat Horse. So a Gorilla would be crazy, right?

Well you also have to realize that new mech designs were intended to sell miniatures for the table-top game. And they couldn't be boring generic most-efficient designs (see: Hellstar) because then there'd be no reason to use (and by extension, buy) those mechs. If TT designs were based on being efficient, we'd have a lovely MWO-type situation there.

So all of their missiles bounce off you harmlessly while they're unable to retaliate because as a Support Robot they didn't bring any backup weapons?

I run a max engine crab 20 with 5 medium pulse lasers. Running around the map at 120~ in a somewhat tanky medium mech with a decent amount of firepower is so silly. I can out-duel most light mechs and I have enough speed to core heavies/assaults. However this is at trash tier 4. Anything works. I hate dying and seeing my team is left with an armless arctic cheetah and two LRM boats out of ammo.

Nah, take the small er laser trial cheetah and keep poking the assault in front of you with 1-2 lasers. He gets pissed and alphas you resulting in a TK. Troll successful.

I know 19 said the Archer quirks aren't finalized and I'd like to stress that like 5% quirks and 10% quirks are what should be baseline general quirks. Energy, Missiles, Ballistics - And you should always have baseline quirk before introducing a weapon specific one.

Is 200K C-Bills per match a good baseline or should I be earning more? Also, I play using my Urbie to farm wins and kills.

What the gently caress did you just loving say about me, you pubbie scum? I'll have you know I graduated top of my tutorial in Training Grounds, and I've been involved in numerous CW drops, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in Torso Twisting and I'm the top sniper in my entire Faction. You are nothing to me but another target. I will wipe you the gently caress out with precision the likes of which have never before been seen in the Inner Sphere, marking my loving words. You think you can get away with saying that poo poo to me over Something Awful? Think again, scrub. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of neckbearded hackers across the Outer Sphere and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the Urbanmech Storm, bitch. The storm that wipes out that thing you call a life. You're loving dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with small lasers. Not only am I trained in brawling, but I have access to the entire Clan Arsenal and I will use it to its fullest extent to wipe your miserable rear end off the face of Butte Hold, you little poo poo. If only you could have known the unholy retribution your "clever" comment was about to bring down on you, maybe you would have held your loving tongue. But you didn't, you couldn't, and now you're paying the price you goddamn idiot. I will poo poo LRMs all over you and you will drown in it. You're loving dead, kiddo. Or he does need to just "git gud"

There are situations where you can tell it's luck, there are situations where you can tell the other person is good, and then there are situations where you can tell they are aimbotting because they never miss the component they are aiming at no matter how you twist, and face you the entire time. And since the aimbot comes with a built in wallhack they also always get the drop on you when you peek.

I get that I'm not fast even with the biggest XL engine in it. My cockpit isn't the tiniest. But the dude dual gauss my cockpit from near their spawn, while I was moving between buildings near the cliff. Maybe, just maybe there was a tiny remote chance that he timed his shot just right... But maybe...

I would be okay with them removing the head component as a hittable location altogether. Headshots don't make this game more fun, aimbots or no. That's the whole reason they made the head hitboxes so miniscule in the first place. Just go all the way and get rid of it.
