I played robots today for pretty much the first time in a year. It is pretty much still the same game with the addition of clan poo poo and different coloured lasers. I did have fun blowing up robots though. I had the most fun blowing up Sean Lang of NGNG while he was streaming http://www.twitch.tv/ngngtv/b/564549351 at ~50 mins in. It really is mind blowing how little progress they have made other than making GBS threads out new mechs. Srms do seem like they work now which is nice.

We want a hero raven called the Nevermore with its fluff tagline being "quoth the raven Alt+F4". Is that too much to ask?

aniviron posted:I don't have trackIR but word has it that the game fully supports it. Whether it's a good control scheme I have no idea though. I have a trackir most of the mechs aren't worth using it with because their cockpits have no side windows. The raven is pretty cool with it though.

Best game last night for me was us doing an oldschool tunnel rush to basecap on frozen city night. Did we get points? No. Did we get bags? No. Did I sit in their base typing all about your base about your base into chat as the timer ticked down. Hell yes.

Number19 posted:FYI: goons ramming Paul had nothing to do with knockdown a getting removed. They got removed because they didn't work properly. I can testify that when Anders and I visited PGI I asked if Paul had anything he wanted to say to goons. He said "I didn't take collisions out because of that video, I took them out because they didn't work in the tournament". Paul was actually pretty chill in person. To be fair though he only found out that we were goons at the end of our visit. He may not have had time to focus his or something like that.

Tusen Takk posted:Which Stormcrow should I buy? the SCR-Prime or the SCR-D? It looks like the prime has less armour than the -D and not as good base heat mitigation or whatever it's called Stormcrows CTs are identical. So buy whichever comes with the most gear you plan on using straight away. Prime and the D have the most useful omnipods. You will want both eventually. I would probably get the prime and buy the D torso pods.

Jimbosaurus posted:They are playing it ironically. The system is also broken / badly designed and prevents a lot of tasks being assigned to anyone other than the org owner We will get more recruitment people by the time cw roles around I guess. At least one person with mumble admin is usually going to be on jabber most of the day so if you need something with mumble etc then ask in the_nest etc. If you can't be bothered to get set up for jabber and authed into mumble etc then welp

Pycckuu posted:I have a lispy human being nerd voice irl, and if people heard me speak it would discredit my valid criticisms. I am everything that I hate about goons, and the overwhelming irony of my posts is keeping me from buying a microphone. Half the goons on mumble have nerdvoice and the overlay doesn't work so nobody will know which nerd voice is yours. Get a mic and yell at goons.

Both of them were pretty much the result of a fuckton of people saying "We are sick of this tiresome fuckwit". I mean, loving hell, g1mmel didn't even manage to get banned until he got banned from the loving game. Gimmel never got banned from Wol. We love Gimmel. He is both the best and worst of us at the same time.

There will be a list of good builds forthcoming for newbies or people coming back that don't remember how to robot. It will hardly be compulsory.

A new auth system is in the works that won't need an RSI account for mechshooting. I don't have an ETA at this stage.

Kazvall posted:I would LOVE to see two rounds of ALL locusts, followed by two rounds of ALL assaults. We'll call it Boss Mode. Bossmode was the best thing in the old 8v8 queue. When the composition of an 8 man would force matching that comp. So if you took 1 assault and 7 lights the other team would end up with that and be totally unprepared for it. Bossfight games were the best games.

Also, recommend me a good build for the Ilya and -4X? I haven't been super happy with any of my builds for them. 3D is probably the other one to get. It has jets. Used to be one of the better jumpsnipers when that was a thing.
