Same issue as last night. It's hard to diagnose but we've put some measures in place to prevent it.

If your assaults say they're going, if you're a nearby heavy or even medium you drop what you're doing and go. It doesn't matter if you're shooting at something or whatever. When the push is called you get your robot in line and go gently caress the the other guys up. Do not stop the until the enemy is dead or you are. Brawling owns.

Also, if you're not yelling "WITNESS ME" into comms while leading a push you're doing it wrong.

Drewjitsu posted:Do you guys have no idea how to manage expectations? If you're going to wait until the end of the day to release the notes, just say they are going to be released on tuesday, then magically astound people with your competence by releasing them late on monday. Sometimes they get delayed a bit to ensure that they are accurate and that all the stakeholders have verified things. This is a new patch cycle for us so the patches are bigger. The process will get smoother once we're used to the newer cadence.

Localized quirks are something I've asked about a lot and they're unfortunately not possible with the current weapons system. As far as my understanding goes, weapons stats are a per mech thing, not a per weapon thing. It would take some significant rewrites to make that change and it might not even be possible without tearing down the weapons code and rebuilding it from the ground up. This same root issue is why ammo switching for LB-X autocannons isn't possible. A weapon has one ammo type and one fire mode. Again, perhaps it can be extended some day but it will require some pretty serious work and might require a ground up rework of the system to implement.

Pattonesque posted:always remember: when dealing with a light in a heavy or assault 'mech, back up and turn in the opposite direction that they're circling you If you're a heavy or assault vs a light, back up into a wall or corner to deny them the option to circle then start shooting legs Also yell in comms for your lights to come chase the loving light away. If the light bails out don't chase, but take a couple more shots at legs while it's running away If you manage to leg it before it escapes then by all means kill it and say  in allchat

Bait and Swatch posted:Just get in some brawlers, sometimes you win sometimes you lose, but it's always fun. Bonus fun if you have a ghost dad and SRM stalker and can make it around the flank to touch enemy butts undetected. If you brawl and lose, at least you joined the battle and went to Valhalla, all shiny and chrome Much better than humping a hill and dying from a thousand paper cuts

Endbuster posted:I present to you, "the little brother." I might switch out the MPLs for MLs and put in a bigger engine like so: http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=83&l=f44001ef83dc64ae84901a25089ca3fd572ad80d Same rough DPS, slightly lower alpha and you can scoot and shoot a lot faster. The longer beam length does mean that you need a bit more face time though so it might not be worth the tradeoff.

With regards to cheats: I cannot comment. It would be foolish for me to say anything in a public or semi-public forum. I understand your frustration with the topic but this is not the venue to inquire about it, nor am I the person to ask. You are best off contacting support or the feedback email address and/or asking Tina. Please be aware that you may not get much of an answer because we are going to obviously going to be reluctant to discuss the topic, not because we do not care or are trying to avoid the issue, but instead because we have to keep some topics internal. I hope that you can understand that last point and can see that you would treat this situation in the same manner.

Supraluminal posted:Tech companies are often reluctant to publicly discuss anything related to security (which is what cheating is, a security issue). Anything PGI might say about their efforts to combat cheating would provide information that cheat software developers could potentially use in the next generation of their tools. Not that security through obscurity is something to rely on, but it's basically an arms-race situation and if they can get ahead for a few weeks or months by being cagey about it I understand why they would do that. This sums the situation up well. Silence does not equal inactivity and in a case like this saying nothing might be the best option.

tarbrush posted:Random question. I've just set up the AS7-S build from the OP, and I've ended up with four spare tons. Is it still in date? I've counted my weapons, counted my ammo, checked all the armour values. Not equipped artemis cause I'm broke, but that doesn't affect weight, right? Artemis adds one ton and one slot to each launcher so yes, that is where your extra 4 tons are coming from.

tarbrush posted:Ohhhhh. Neat. I will continue being cheap as poo poo then, and spend the weight on shitloads of armour. In the absence of Artemis on the SRMs I guess I'd do something like this: Zombie Dad (AS7-S) I don't like having the ammo in the arms but there's not much choice. The lasers needd be in the CT to give you a functional weapons system after you're stripped so I guess you have to use the arms for ammo. It's batter than doing something even worse like putting CASE on a torso or something. e: save the lasers for when you've lost all the other weapons. They're a backup weapon only and are too hot for use in the push.

I still like the classic Rhino Stalker: http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=46&l=f48f8bf6cfd8ed2ebe3ada0355d0f2035389da97 It's the best sustained DPS option available but it's possible to get popsicled and has no longer range options available.

ZenVulgarity posted:If you get double heat sinks does it also change your engine heatsinks? It changes the built in ones (the one heat sink you get per 25 engine rating up until 250) to true doubles. Any that you mount in the extra engine slots you get for every 25 engine rating above 250 (275 allows 1, 300 allows 2, etc) count as "external" mounted heat sinks, just as if you'd put them in anywhere else on the mech.

ZenVulgarity posted:I love my nova so much In addition, all mechs are required to mount a minimum of 10 heat sinks. Engines smaller than a 250 cannot contain that minimum number and that i why you have to mount additional heatsinks on some light and medium mechs, even if you don't need 10 heat sink's worth of heat capacity or dissipation (the Urbanmech is a perfect example of this).

A Curvy Goonette posted:I'm pretty leery of this. CryEngine devs have said in the past that Helios is pretty undetectable without direct observation (even then fairly difficult) and I doubt PGI has done the work to actually check for that. I'm just hoping they don't go on a witchhunt and ban a bunch of legitimately good players just to show the rest of the userbase that they're tracking hackers, really, honestly, look at this list! Or use it as an excuse to ban players they just want to get rid of, which I am not convinced PGI is above doing. As Russ said last night, the cheat tool website itself states that we successfully detected them, back when people got banned for it last year. I don't know now much more you need than that. We're not going to publish more details on how they were detected because that gives away more information to your opponent which is a bad idea in a cat and mouse game.
