Do you get the crates in the main game after you finish? Got all the expansions and checked the mech bay but don't see anything about a crate. I have seen some of the new mechs in three matches, the assassin has popped up a few times. I even found an Annihilator on the black market for the low low low price of 124 million. Yeah I didn't have that much.

So is there a game plan for missions where you got to plant beacons while dealing with all the base defences and mechs? Going too slow is no good and rushing in seems suicidal. Either way tend to get chewed up mighty good.

TotalLossBrain posted:I like running 3 heavies or assaults and one light or medium mech with lots of JJs and the right pilot. The heavies keep the enemy busy while the little guy rushes around, relying on cover and evasion. drat if this didn't do the trick nicely despite the warning of not sending enough tons. Three mechs with missiles for days, one assassin packing a coil for extra fire power and things went very nicely.

I did a fun pirate flashpoint, it was for a tournament! You didn't get to use your own mechs, oh no, that's too simple. You got assigned mechs, the most fearsome mechs of all. The Urbanmech. It was fun. Not really challenging by any measure but it helped make things so more alive. The guys champion even wept tears of joy that he was no longer the only one who had made it.

Got the Raven. I hated doing those missions to earn it, they were rated low but due to the people you got stuck with or the lower deployment limit it wasn't exactly easy as you might have expected. Lots of vehicles can be death to a light lance. The last mission was such a pain since you got stuck with three pilots and their skills were pretty drat poor.

I need to get in good with the pirates myself, seen Atlas II's there a few times now but when they're almost 150 million that's just out of bounds. Like another poster here I seldom see any missions for them ain't helping. On the bright side I have thumped the Black Widows forces and picked up two Coil M's and a Narc and ammo. Deciding what to do with that. Already had a Coil L put on an assassin. Is there a good Bull Shark loadout or stick with what it has which looks pretty drat good.

Klyith posted:Have you turned on vsync? You're probably drawing like a million frames per second. Large portions of this game are menus and looking down at a fairly static 3d environment, so uncapped FPS will allow a GPU do pointless busy work. Yeah I got that turned on. I dialed back the shadows and motion blur. Everything is running as high as can be otherwise.

Klyith posted:Ok, so the next question is do you actually hear the fans working hard? (Or if you're using a monitor, are they spun up to max?) Because it could be that a less demanding game produces hotter temps, because the GPU doesn't need to run the fans as much to deal with a game that's only using like 20% of it's capacity. Yeah your right, it's not like it's running bad or anything. It's doing it's job and I'm worrying about nothing really. I really need to make friends with the pirates, saw another Bull Shark for sell and a piece for one. Later on did a mission where the enemy had one. I did not expect that.

Since I'm best buddies with Davion I went to visit them upon realizing the whole UAC thing and went on a several million dollar shopping spree. I now have UAC's for days. Months. Years. What's more scary than a pair of Atlas with AC 20's coming at you? A pair of Atlas with UAC 20's coming at you. And that doesn't get into the other mechs and their loadouts. A bull shark with quad UAC 5's is pretty mean. Doesn't hurt that those UAC5's are minus three tons so helps add more ammo.

Stuck between two legendary mech warriors? That takes some ingenuity and creative thinking since their mechs are going to be even crazier than your OPed machines. In other words, run backwards to the bank that has some forest cover and park your rear end there. Being legends and having a burning hatred of each other they'll go at each other if your not in the way. Tossing in some indirect fire, maybe targeting a mech of the other side when one side gets dominant and before you know it they'll be whittled down to dust. Then it's time to heroically and bravely charge in and that's how you beat two legendary mech warriors easy peasy.

TotalLossBrain posted:My 395t lance took a tiny bit of armor loss during that engagement, nothing else. I didn't even move from that forested spot you mention. I didn't even take a shot from that spot. I have so many mechs now I got to keep a few in storage. No matter the tonnage I can field anything depending on what is needed and every one gets a drat good loadout if used.

Warmachine posted:You know, the Awesome might be a sack of poo poo, but it's my sack of poo poo now, after seeing it pop up in the Joint Venture flashpoint and deciding it was time to get me an assault mech in this particular career game. I probably took a bit more damage than I should have stripping the thing of weapons and finally killing the pilot, but picking the whole thing up after one deployment was very satisfying. I got an Awesome that is my favourite missile boat. It can take a beating, can fire four medium lasers and has two twenty missile pods. It doesn't over heat as easily as the Archer and brings more fire power than a Catapult.

Taear posted:The house Kurita final (probably) flashpoint level is absolutely bananas. If it's the same one I remember the best way to beat it is to field three mechs that are missiles boats, they can take care of things ranged very well, and have one mech that's a light to run run run once you get things taken care of pretty good. There should be a building or emplacement that needs to be destroyed for some friendlies to be sent down as well. They'll help keep poo poo off your runner.

Ravenfood posted:I should have done this. If you get some more UAC ++'s from Davion remove the LBX-10's and go quad UAC 5's. You can core basically anything in one precision shot, as long as they don't have protection. It's fun. Later if you get more Bullsharks you can go two 10 UAC's and two 5 UAC's. It's a mean thing. You don't even user the lasers on either Bull unless it's to maybe reduce someones pip. As for your spoiler. Yes. You will. Unless you chicken out.

RBA Starblade posted:I've never gotten a full Kintaro before I'm already in heavies and assaults lol They mostly shine when your limited to a light lance. You can often put one or two in the lance and they are capable of both taking a beating and dishing it out. In those cases they're kinda the tank for the mission while your two much lighter mechs do what they need to do.

Lazyhound posted:lol I just salvaged an Annihilator from a one-skull mission at 1021 days, I haven’t even finished assembling my first heavy (which is a Marauder, synergy++). The Annihilator can be a mean AC machine but it's so drat fragile. I rather use the Bull Shark. But if you don't got one of those an Annihilator can be a nice substitute, just be aware it might be mean but it can't take so many hits.

Not sure how the hell they managed to get unique models in (last I played all the new mechs that were too different from the base game were either kitbashed versions of other mechs or just had similar stand-in's to vanilla mechs.) in but I saw a screenshot of them and those are definitely some Xenomorph tails and bits and bobs. Holy poo poo. They mixed Xenos and Mechs. I have the weirdest boner right now.

I have 207 hours, I have yet to see it myself or any crashes. The worse I had were all purple mechs near the launch of the game and various items from the game like light fixtures or parts of buildings taking off like a rocket instead of falling to the ground though thats rare. I have seen a PPC energy graphic existing on some terrain on occasion as if that had been hit but failed to go away.

The computer has decided it wants Glitch dead. Two battles, two freaking headshots. The first was an accidental hit! They weren't even aiming for her. I refuse to let Glitch die but how do you beat cold unrelenting fury and hatred of a machine. She's piloting an Atlas, she should be safe. Curse those series of tubes.

Azran posted:So I've been reading a ton of reading on the BT universe thanks to this game. It's been pretty fun! The Bull Shark went from "oh, reference to the Clans" to "Oh, a VERY specific reference to a certain clan" made even more interesting after reading about the Black Widow. Also just how out of timeframe the Annihilator is outside from Wolf's Dragoons. The funniest thing by far, however, was reading about the weapons added by Heavy Metal and how some of them are post-Clan Invasion Sarna.net can cause more than a bit of time to vanish with all the info there, aside from that I suggest Tex Talks Battletech on youtube. He's done a few great vids on all things Battletech including two massive ones about the fall of the Star League.
