I played for the first time since CW came out last night. Brawling seems to be viable again and the Menturion is fun. I also managed to drop in a stupid cent ah I didn't even know I owned that had an AC20 and an LRM10 :psyduck:

All in all shot robots had fun. Madness.

I've been running a top dog thunderbolt with LPLs on it for the last few days and it seems to work pretty well. Certainly seems viable as a cbill grinding hero mech at least.

Alpine was made as an answer to terrible grogs bitching that the maps weren't big enough. So they made alpine :shepface:

Im pretty sure there are two, at least from the picture I saw. Did you have an accident?

Pretty sure modern science hasn't developed a lens powerful enough to confirm that for sure.

I'm not actually minding polar highlands even when playing a brawling angry dad atlas on it. We had a fun conquest game the other day where we got totally outcapped by a couple of ecm lights but then meat grinder-ed through their entire team minus one light in a big swirling brawl.

Pubs loading up on lrums hoping for polar highlands just means running into more hopeless HOLD LOCKS GUYZZZZ :byodood: on other maps where lrms are worthless garbage :shrug:

Such is the way of things. LRM pubs are never going to stop. Play in bigger goon groups I guess.

Pair up a DDC and an S for the best of both ghostdadding and dickpunching. Also you get to make silly mumble shittalk about having two dads. Truly the best of both worlds.

Pubbie ingame voip makes lrm boats even better. They can whine about holding locks as well as textspam it. They can also rage about not enough people capping or going back to base. I love pubbie voip.

Playing this game with goons is infinitely more fun than soloing. Plus you get to hear fun goon life anecdotes while shooting robots. Occasionally there is even good teamwork and poo poo going on.

Suicide feet artillery when you are about to die is a pro move. Especially when you take some extra goons with you.

I recorded a game where someone got taken out and dropped an airstrike as they died that obliterated two of their own teammates. it was legit hilarious.

I made a prototype of an improved skill tree. It has 8 skill slots and higher tier skills are indicated by rings. The red circle gets bigger as you add more skills. Stats related to the skills could be displayed there.



I think we can agree this is strong improvement on the PTS2 version.
