Time for me to update my bookmarks it seems. Are any of you goons coming to the PGI Steam Launch event?

I like to go out for drinks with goons when they are in town. Or when I'm in their town. E: really I just like to go out for drinks

Libluini posted:Yeah, but it's kind of fun just stomping around shooting at things. Waiting ten minutes for a CW-deployment could need some work, though. I guess not enough players for more? Right now during peak hours were having the opposite problem: all the possible matches on Tukkayid are running non stop. The planet is already set to the maximum the interface can handle so we can't add any more match slots. Basically, Tukkayid is full during this event.

Finster Dexter posted:I think a lot of people dislike them because of the spread, but I love them at close range. Like a giant mech shotgun. They are also cool because of the crit bonus which is actually a good thing to have in the current age of structure quirks. It might be time to bring the Hellbrawler back out of retirement: http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=230&l=3369ab6475d4bf05c7021e9c8ae75769a7684a24

Chomp8645 posted:I remember one time seeing a guy in a uh... hunckback??? or some german sounding mech just loaded out with 8 machine guns and nothing else. He would wait for lights to attack him and when they did just unload at them and it was just some blinding fury of a million bullets and half the time they would just turn around and run away from it. That would have been a Jagermech and it wouldn't have been very good but it sure would be annoying

For returning players, there are more weapons that have multipliers on their chance to crit internals than before. Here's the list: Machine guns: shred internals, low damage, minimal use on armoured components Flamers: lol, don't use these except to mount in a head energy slot and bind that weapon group to your push to talk button LB-X autocannons: not great due to the damage spread but can be incredibly effective on some brawler builds. Some mechs have quirks that make this have an incredibly short recycle and it is very effective. These will shred internals on an exposed component. AC2: newly added this patch, cries at about the same rate as the machine gun. Still an iffy weapon but if boated and played right can be hilariously effective at wrecking assaults in a brawl from a distance E: clarified the crit multiplier bit

I'd go with this Stalker instead: RHINO STALKER That combined with these quirks: Laser Duration: -10% Missile Weapon Cooldown: 10% Missile Weapon Range: 15% Missile Weapon Velocity: 10% Acceleration: 25% Deceleration: 25% Turn Rate: 25% Torso Angle Yaw: +20° Torso Yaw Speed: 35% It is very mean.

Devorum posted:Just slapped the medium lasers on and tried it out. It's good, and doesn't seem to run quite as hot SRM-30 and a LL. At some point I should probably consider getting a couple more Stalkers to Elite this thing. the %m has been one of my favorite 'Mechs since it was released. I think I've probably gotten at least 125-150K XP with it over time, even with my long breaks from playing. A Rhino will always be hot but the general hope is that you only need to shoot twice to kill your target. Then you go cool off for a bit before someone else walks in front of you again.

Oh Snapple! posted:Is there any chance of Christmas sales or anything. I've got like 10k MC because I dumbly bought a founder's pack way back when and while I'd like to shore up my mechs a bit without committing fully to the slow grind I'd also kinda like to not pay the current MC prices for them. There will be sales and events for the holidays.

Nuebot posted:I do, I was actually surprised this one wasn't taken already. But I have seen a ton of 420weed related names so who knows. I'll probably have to replace it soon though because I made a bunch of people really, really mad earlier when an IRL accident made me afk for a few minutes in a match and I came back to people just yelling that we deserve to lost because I AFKed and that I cost them the game, etc. So I'm sure angry people reported me. It's all a matter of if you get reported or not. If not then your name will live forever.

I should log on under my anon account one day just so I can goof off fully. E: for all the newcomers or returning old timers who haven't kept up: I am a PGI employee. If you have an issue you want assistance with then contact support since I'm generally terrible at being able to help. If you have a question I might be able to answer. You can also PM me other questions if you think they're more private and I will try to answer. Also I play robots with goons so odds are we will group up and have fun one day.

Yolomon Wayne posted:On ghost heat: what if i dont alpha, but fire 4 lasers, then with a short delay the other 4? This is what heat scale is supposed to make you do. It applies to concurrent weapons fired within a .5 second window. This is why chain fire doesn't trigger it.
