it was never a huge thing but a little while after MWO was launched they cut the legs out from under it and the project went dormant for an extended period of time before showing up again and as far as i know the playerbase never really recovered

What was the mech that had an advanced targeting system that wouldn't let it fire unless it was actually going to hit, though it would still incur heat as if it had shot? I remember thinking that this completely pointless unless you're roleplaying collateral damage but I'm not too familiar with TT play

Their site has no screenshots, no video, it's not on Steam... Seems like they just need to market it a bit more. I love me some MW/BT and I had no idea the project was resurrected.

Its not crazy good mostly because you can't load all the good custom SRM ammo into the launchers. They can be pretty handy in the right circumstances and lets you get the most out of pushing your heat (but not wasting the heat) as well as being able to under ammo your mech because you know each salvo is going to count. Basically it just depends on the mechs that actually are built with this in mind.

although come to think of it even when mw:ll was in active development before MWO was a twinkle in PGI's eye the website/documentation left a lot to be desired so

SQUAWK!  Edit: I feel since this game is a go and is actually looking good, and beta played well I can actually get involved and now have my hopes and dreams crushed. Also.. I feel like I should do another drunk battletech for newbies. Dead Like Rev fucked around with this message at 17:08 on Apr 18, 2018 |

isildur, I'm sure you guys have this on an enhancement list and I'm sure y'all aren't making any changes at this time, but from watching way more streaming than I'd care to admit... 1) It'd be helpful if you could see what equipment and ammo is in the market and be able to buy it directly from the mech refit screen. Having to hop back and forth is awkward. 2) There should be a "replace" button in the market where you can buy and set a refit job for like parts. For example, swap out a PPC with a PPC+ from the market screen without having to jump into the mech bay. If there were multiple of the same weapons, a simple list of where the part is located that you could choose from seems like it would be fine. I think those both would go a long way towards encouraging less knowledgeable players to upgrade their mechs. Internet Explorer fucked around with this message at 18:03 on Apr 18, 2018 |

You can at least do that by switching to the sell tab - the little number in the corner is the amount of that item you have I believe.

If they were emulating Quikcell they'd be releasing the source code for us to compile ourselves, but bits would be missing. vvvBeaten like a Quikcell Vedette! DatonKallandor fucked around with this message at 22:12 on Apr 18, 2018 |

In proper Quikscell tradition, the release will consist of a bunch of unsorted assets and undocumented code, and we'll have to compile a game out of it ourselves.
