SSJ_naruto_2003 posted:What about for the Locust pack. The only thing I've piloted since I got it was the pirates bane. I don't think Cyrano understands "Don't give PGI money" is like our longest running joke. We say it all the time everytime someone buys something, we say it even when WE buy something. I said it when I bought the loving Warhammers and the Pirates Bane. I mean, it sucks he doesn't like it, but you also can't expect to know all the poo poo when you never play with us. That said, yes you are part of the problem, you shitler. Even though Locusts rule.

As a further aside, I think the biggest issue with PGI are the people who are heading it up, not the actual people making the game. I imagine if Russ, Paul, and Bryan were to resign ( which will never happen as I think Russ and Bryan are co-owners ), the people taking their places would probably do infinite better jobs and less boneheaded decisions.

Discussion suggests it's because they have been criticized in the past for having big events when the public test server is up, which makes for very low PTS populations. So instead of making the event work on the PTS or anything like that, they just had a really lovely event so you wouldn't feel like you were missing out by not playing the normal game.

I'm pretty much just waiting for the skill revamp to hit live so I can reassess my favorite mechs and get them sorted out. The other mechs I don't care anymore about I'll probably continue to ignore. Sorry Grasshoppers.

I wish I could matey but for some fool reason I now run 5k every Saturday morning (doc said get fit or die). So sadly no more Friday night drinking and roboting. .... and 350 hours in Rimworld may have something to do with my absence. Also gently caress PGI, game bad, dont give PGI money, etc. etc.

I finally have gaming-capable internet after almost a year of not and for some reason I want to reinstall this shitheap. Am I making a mistake goons? Is the mumble server still populated? Also I see that Urbies and Wolfhounds are in now, damnit. I hope you can buy those with ingame money?

Player numbers are stable but it's been a few months since there was a patch that added anything to the game, really, so there's very little excitement going on about the game right now and the mumble is pretty dead most nights. Urbies are out for CB and fun but bad. Wolfhounds have been out for CB for a while also and were really really good for a short time but are now really bad.

Well I guess I'll just reinstall and see how the game feels coming back then. I haven't played for probably a year and a half, IIRC the last I played the first resistance pack was being hyped.

Everything but hero variants, the brandy-brand-newest mechs, and a few oddball variants you probably don't care about anyway are available for fake space robot c-bills.

I haven't played for probably a year and a half, IIRC the last I played the first resistance pack was being hyped. Pubbies are still terrible. Like, "they love to play LRM assaults with joysticks" terrible. Drop solo queue a few times, stay in cover to @300m, and unleash brawling hells upon them. Group queue is a crap shoot, but the difficulty curve ramps up noticeably from tier 3 to tier 2. e: Skoll is right, Urbies are OP af. armchairyoda fucked around with this message at 04:06 on Feb 26, 2017 |

Urbanmechs are very good. Probably the third best light based on their amazing hitboxes alone. (1 and 2 are the Locust and Cheetah)

If you can't do good in an Urbie, you just suck. They're cheap, fun, and you can do a lot of different builds on them.

WarLocke posted:Maybe, they're cheap as hell. The UM R60(I think) has the same armor as a Centurion and can field 2 Er Large Lasers and 4 MGs (which by the way, are useful again). It's my best light mech, as it can poke all day at range and chew damaged mechs up close at the later stages of the match. It's not made for fighting other lights or brawling, as it hasn't the amazing speeds of the Spider or Locust. But it doesn't need them anyways.

It just wasn't happening. The hitboxes are entirely too big and it's a waste of tonnage, especially with the current restrictions, to trot it out in a group now in the small hope of being unnoticed long enough to SRM bomb your target. By now everyone knows just exactly how to deal with them and that's why the few times you seem them now is as rear LRM support.

The archer functions okay as an SRM bomber if it doesn't get shot at. Once it starts getting shot at it falls apart and dies stupidly fast. The biggest problem besides it being fragile and super easy to pick apart is that its hard points are spread out so far that the only thing you can shoot and reliably hit are assaults or heavies that are looking at you straight on. Anything else and you will whiff a huge amount of your shots. Commoners fucked around with this message at 16:43 on Feb 26, 2017 |

Great Beer posted:Why go slow when you could go fast Yeah I just switched a to 180STD, 2xMPL, 4xMG, 4xJJ setup. 97kph, just about max armor, can lose both torsos (and indeed I ended up a walking popsicle in the first match I played) and 6k MG ammo seems like plenty. Range kind of sucks, but you're in an urby, you either want to be poking at extreme ranges or vulturing wounded mechs up close. And I just like not falling apart when I lose a torso.

http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=275&l=4afefe78cc9ccb67ce89d6c9e47bfcbdb094af3f I think MGs are a trap, the urbanmech isnt fast or durable enough to face tank with them. I prefer the 2 LPL build on the R63 and being a medium range poker.
