Something occurred to me last night. IF they are making it so that you only need 1 mech to fully skill up, how is this going to affect the pricing of omnimechs, since now there is literally no reason to buy 3 mechs every time they release a new variant. Or am I thinking farther along than this game is still going to be around?

I don't think we can rely on pgi to implement what they think they want.

Still, it would be nice to just buy one mech instead of three to master it, even if it meant dumping the exact amount of grind time onto one mech instead of spreading it over three. I don't even give a gently caress about clan mechs.

I always find the modpud references old, considering modpud was banned for using Helios, not aim botting. Both constitute cheating, mind you, but aim botting is a lot more heinous than seeing through walls imo. Either way, the joke is old, seems the only people who bring it up are scrub shitlords like GIRL and WoL, who are ironically from the same retarded ilk anyway

It's cute, since you and your teammates and friends in WoL regularly accuse us of cheating when we curb stomp you in group queue. For the amount of time that it has been going on, if we were actually cheating, our teams would have been banned. If you think calling players cheaters without any evidence is funny, well it isn't and none of us on the other side are laughing about it, only laughing at your shameful lack of class when it comes to losing.

No reason to have arm armor when it doesn't have anything in them, so most of the variants will be saving tonnage by doing that. IMO the three good variants are pretty drat close to being an ideal 30 ton mech.

I'd say it'll honestly be probably the second best light for the IS, but comparing any of the lights to the locust is kind of unfair with how good that little poo poo is. IMO the locust's performance profile is kind of the baseline that all the lights should be hovering around.

It's not a patch on the glorious urbanmech you heathen :argh:

I don't know why but this really makes me like the idea of a splatclops named POL POT. Wouldn't even have to buy many letters for that.

Also hats off the Bobcats for your ace of spades. Not only did you do it in a Viper, you also pulled in eight solo kills. Most AoS posters get, like, two with the rest being luck.

Also interesting -- the non-D-DC and -S Atlases had their structure bonuses converted to armor

so something like ... this?

AS7-D

Might be viable now that it's packing 145 points of CT armor and 100 in the side torsos
