This general never had a chance.
What's been up with the last few days being nothing but random shitposting? Is the game really about to die like the official forums seem to think?
>>144671848
>Is the game really about to die like the official forums seem to think?
The game has been dying since the Clan launch. It just takes a long time for businesses to fail and more so for F2P games.
>>144671848
Every year has been full of prophecies of doom since 2012. I'm sure in 2020 people will still claim that.
>>144671848
Before the huge Kodiak numbers and the cash tournament I thought so but it's obviously still highly profitable.
Shitposting is nothing new.
>>144671848
After the very underwhelming patch that was Phase 3, yes, there's nothing else to be done here.

>>144678386
neg. It's a shittier Jagermech. I know we often say "X is a shittier version of Y" here but in this case it's absolutely true, they have almost exactly the same hitboxes and hardpoints, the only difference is that the Rifleman mounts smaller weapons and has less armor. The position of "tiny jager" is held by the Blackjack which, at least, can jump and run pretty fast, and is actually very small and agile.
>>144679312

>>144676579
Look interesting, reminds me of tribes.
When does this come out?
nth for twilight phase of shitty canadian shovelware devs and their games.
So MWO is straight up P2W, right? Or basically P2P, right? I've been wanting to get into it, but it seems like the vast majority of content is locked behind rather high pay walls.
>>144684296
No, it's just grinfy as fuck.
Only play it if you are some kind of hardcore battletech fan, though. The game is essentially stuck in a minimally viable development limbo while being effectively in beta state for 3+ years now.
>>144685841
Is it better or worse than Hawken?
>>144686362
It's way better than Hawken. Hawken had devs who had no idea what they wanted to do and changed the game to piss off their playerbase several times each time dwindling resources and players.
>>144684296
The game is free. Give it atry if you like robots.
>>144686362

>>144687721
>haha lmao
Hawken wasn't a bad game despite how ADH fucked up over and over again and couldn't figure out where to go. Maybe if they pulled their heads out of their asses and spent more time developing their game instead of making films and comic books it might have been great. We'll never know since it's forever unfinished and will never see another update.
That said the closed beta of MWO was already better than hawken at any point, simply because it was a proper stompy mech game with unique qualities and not another mediocre fps clone in a sea of mediocre fps.
these pig apologist are what pass for kongers nowadays?
how low you cucks have fallen
>>144688827
>films and comic books
At one point, the devs and the internet at large were convinced that hawken would rival League of Legends' playerbase? The game was so hyped, they were gonna do a TV series, a card game, a movie, comic books, toys, and a youtube exclusive show. Only the card game actually made it, and it's allegedly more balanced than hawken itself.
As much as the PIG is slow and stupid, it's still way better than that and always will be.

>>144689305
really?
>>144691169
Yes really. Hawken had a real life millionaire VC supporting it. Where do you think all that money went? Because it didn't go into the computer game.
A big chunk of the developers who worked on hawken went on to become shovelware developers working on some shitty 5v5 fps which flopped earlier this year.
And they claimed they were going to revolutionize the gaming industry. That's what hubris gets you.
Post your best mechs gents.
>>144691949
It was surreal. The hype surrounding it to begin with was crazy - I remember being around PAX a few years back and seeing flyers on the street and stapled to corner poles advertising Hawken with cool af art, they had big spreads in the main hall and everything.
It's fucking tragic, honestly.

Hey guys check this mountain of salt out:

For my end of the story, this guy initiated teamkill attempts on me twice, in the only two games I ever played with him. I guess this video reveals that his idea of "critiquing bad teammates" is to kill them.
I told him if he kept messing with me he'd get banned, and now he is. I feel really honored to get a specific mention and call out including my pretty face. If he's so jimmied after only meeting me twice, I can only imagine how salty he gets over others he sees more.

What's a good mech for a first purchase? I'm new to MWO but a veteran of the franchise/FPS games.
>>144710236
Most folks will suggest a medium or heavy- if you do, aim at the top of the weight class- 55 for a medium, 70-75 for a heavy.
Clanwise, the Stormcrow and Timber Wolf are good choices. Marauders aren't bad IS heavies (and the Black Knight is even better), the Griffin line is a pretty popular IS medium.
Just remember that you'll end up buying at least three variants to master the chassis and to theorycraft (and post builds) via Smurfy.
>>144710236
Clan or IS?

New player, to learn how a mech works and all I would suggest starting with a Hunchback 4G. Once you learn how to master how they work they have more armor than a Dire Wolf.
Clan Mech, I'd go around with a Timber Wolf or so. Clans are expensive as shit right now, and they're underpowered atm. But they have a really hard learning curve.
>Talking about my waifu like I wouldn't know
ill find u noobs
ill fuck u noobs up
>>144711240
Heavies are the most common type you'll run into in MWO, being sufficiently mobile while still packing plentiful firepower and good armor.
Lights take more effort and constant mobility but can generate obscene firepower-to-weight ratios (Arctic Cheetah, Jenner IIC all-missiles variant, Oxide (Jenner Hero), Firestarter).
Mediums tend to not get enough mobility to compensate for the lighter armor and lesser firepower than a heavy, but even so there's some good ones and even unique roles. Streak-boating Stormcrows are the bane of light 'Mechs everywhere, for example.
Assaults tend to suffer from all-in syndrome- that is, most aren't mobile enough to get out of trouble, only shoot their way out of it if possible.
This tends not to work when you get left behind and swarmed by lights or gangbanged because you're a hueg target. Right now, the best assault (Kodiak) is so new it's real money, but even so it's fucking common as hell because it's the first competent Clan assault not held back by one major flaw or another. IS side, the Mauler is a brutal dakka boat (but clumsy with a full load), the Atlas can be a 100-ton linebreaker ram, the King Crab is a decent if low-slung assault with capable builds...but PUG assault piloting can be a very frustrating place if you're not agile enough to keep up with the heavy deathball.
>>144712050
If he's going Hunchbacks, the -SP is one of the most durable ones of the bunch and doesn't have the "shoot me" hump.
Or the Hunchback IIC line, of course- aka babby Kodiaks. They're C-bill and quite decent, if more fragile gunboats than the IS version.
>>144712319
4G and the 4P Are not bad Hunchies. They're probably the best starting mechs in game to help learn with rolling armor, and having awesome fire power.
>>144711240 Just remember, Clan is Expensive, and Inner Sphere is Cheap
>>144712002
>you will never rub one out between Nana-Haruko's bunny earsWhy live?
>>144712319
>>144712502
>>144712050
I'm a big fan of the Hunchback from the table top game(I'm a fa/tg/uy, truth be told), so maybe I'll roll with that. Is the 4G solid?
>>144712502
Actually, the IICs aren't too bad in that regard. And a lot of "fun tax" critical upgrades like double heat sinks are already built in, part of the higher base cost.
>>144705473
I like the whole get-up, but the tights/socks around those thighs and legs is a definite UNF
>>144712635
4g Starts with AC/20 1 Small in the head and 2 mediums in the arms. It has decent quirks and is probably a great starter if you like Hunchbacks. Either the 4g or the 4p Variant that has all the energy hard points on it.
>>144712672 the IIC arnt bad, but they just seem really squishy compared to their IS counter parts even though they are cheap.
>>144712889
>8 medium lasers on the 4p
God damn, now I'm conflicted.
>>144713030
4P for Energy Boat, 4G for Smack down of the Ballistic. Its a tough choice. Infinite Damage VS Ammo
>>144713163
Alright, I grabbed the 4G, and I'll nab the 4P when I save up enough for it.
>>144712635
The -4G literally is the original medium from the very start of the MWO, the first of it's kind here.
It's still reasonably good but incredibly predictable due to being around so long that everyone knows it's tricks. The Hunchback line is pretty predictable based on their bonuses (quirks), but that doesn't mean they're not GOOD old dog tricks- and there's some really decent quirkage in the various lines.
Take the -4H. Five energy hardpoints (given one's in the head so nothing bug there). 20% better energy cooldown. 20% less heat firing energy weapons. Yeah, it's got AC/10 quirks too but boooy will it snap out laser fire quick and cold.
The -4G's best with an AC/20 mount, but it can get plenty of reach, speed AND accuracy out of whatever dakka you put in that hump.
When you're looking at 'Mechs, always have an eye for their quirks, which can mean a chassis seriously throws more weight around than you'd think. Black Knights are terrorbots because they're not only laserboats, but well-quirked ones.
An Oldie but a good video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CeDIm5Qpmx4
>>144713363
You're also going to want to refit it ASAP.
Double heatsinks. Bar none. Playing with singles in MWO is torture. I'd suggest Endosteel as well- only do ferro as the last-resort on IS builds as endo + standard armor is more weight efficient than standard internals + ferro.
This is a reasonable "stock-plus" build to start off with:
http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=1&l=1e795662dc787bfe8fdcac543d2afc3bbbeb74bc
That's Smurfy, a wonderful way to theorycraft build before you shit yourself spending your spacebux on bad builds. Read up, it's also got quirk and equipment info a-plenty.
>>144713726
is this still good
>>144714335
Yes it still is, but its predicable as said by >>144713412
Current meta in game is boating all Energy weapons or Dakka.
>>144712889
Clanbots are almost inevitably squishier in terms of structure/armor maximums, but also can get away with XL engine megaweightsaving because Clan XLs don't cause you to explode dead from a lost side torso. This means guns.
LOTS OF THE GUNS. A Hunchback-4G has that AC/20, but a corresponding Hunch IIC is likely to be packing twin UAC/10s instead, along with more mobility.
Both lines have their virtues.
>>144714578
Yeah, but if he goes with IS he'll learn that Inner Sphere Auto Cannons shit on Clan Auto Cannons. Clan XL's are not all that great either. Get one side popped and bam you get the heat penalty. A single AC/20 vs 3 Ultra 10 Shots. Depending how accurate and stable the person is capable of firing. The Clan UACS may win. But if they start hesitating, the AC/20 will win.
Also, pilot skills definitely have meaningful effects on performance. Without basics, you're notably undereffective. Elites get your firing and runspeed up to snuff, and finishing elites doubles the effect of basic pilot skills.
Mastering gets you an extra module slot, but that's important only when you've got the money to put those modules in and tweak your robot's performance up a bit more. Not worth sweating till you have some extra C-bills socked away.
Also, don't spend global exp on anything other than module unlocks, never on a specific chassis's skillups.
>>144714969
>Clan XLs not great
>Clan UAC's not good
Yeah, I'll just wave at the Kodiak as he goes full >rape with his not-great XL engine and his shitty kill everything UAC's.
And heat penalty + slower movement beats the hell out of dead, which is what an IS XL engine does if you pop a side torso. That's a weak point on most Hunchbacks- people will see and focus that torso ballistic mount, as taking off that big ol' hump means you also take most of the Hunchback's firepower with it.
The -SP gets around this (and has been working out with swol internal buffs) by splitting it's firepower evenly between both sides, unlike most IS Hunchbacks where it's RT gone, target crippled.
>>144708546
Marauder seems like a pretty fun ride.
>>144715608

>>144714534
I stopped playing because of the horrible grind, but right now I have a 2 LL Raven.
>>144715651
It's not a bad heavy choice either, and scratches that old grognard itch.
Just don't get an Orion. You'll never hear the end of it because both Clan and IS ones suffer badly from their construction.
>>144716278
Ravens aren't bad, though pretty much outdone by the top tier designs except the -3L, and that only because it can do funky shit like NARC spotter bitch or ECM/2xERLL snipe.
>>144716430
it's hard to farm for even just the engines.
ECM/2xERLL snipe is pretty much what I do.
I have a Stormcrow SCR-B too but that doesn't work out too well because of the autocannon-only hardpoint
>>144716636
>plays low damage sniping builds
If you want big money you need tons of damage, and some kills and assists. Literally a srm or uac brawler.
>>144717708
I don't want to brawl in a Stormcrow, that never really ends well for me, especially against assaults
>>144716636
You do know that's an Omni, ergo you can swap pods and hence hardpoints? Swap it for up to 4E or a missile hardpoint (depending on the replacement arm pod).

It's pretty shit unless you run it full of srms. Then you can kind of wreck things as long as you don't push by yourself.
You can also do it full of streaks and erase lights that are stupid, but you're pretty useless against anything with actual structure.
Timberwolf is always going to be shoulders above it anyway.
>>144730992
Historically, it's always been a solid purchase.
Not sure how well they run in MWO though, so my opinion is only so valuable.
I see em run all the time however, so they can't be that bad.
Why the fuck does this game (and world of tanks) prevent you from going into a new match with your mech until the match you were in is done? It's fucking retarded and does nothing but make me want to play a different game.
>>144731875
>first to die in a match
git gud
>>144731875
It's like you don't have any other mechs and die first or something
>>144731875
You realize you're not supposed to just suicide rush into the enemy?
>>144731875
It's a solution that addresses two problems.
One, it's to keep you from getting shoehorned into a single mech/tank. If you have to wait for the match to end on one mech/tank, then it incentivizes you to buy and try as many as you can.
Secondly, it keeps people from farming xp and c-bills by simply joining a match, dying, and then repeating the process. A scenario that would happen a lot more than you think.

Get more kills without dying all the time. It's really that simple.

No matter what your team is doing you should be able to kill at least one enemy before dying.

Fuck this shit clownshoes tournament.
>>144809763
C'mon, Scrubbie. Even I can manage 1:1 with the most hated of shitmechs.
On the topic of clownshoes tournaments, as of june 8th, 12 teams have forfeited/been DQd, leaving 141 teams left in the running for the highest skill tournament in e-sports.
Aren't we only like 10 days into this thing? Two weeks at best?
At this rate of churn, we'll see like 50% forfeits way sooner than predicted. PGI is gonna have to offer mergers or extra recruit slots, or they're not gonna have any kind of fucking tournament to show, which I doubt their microsoft and nvidia sponsors would be too fucking keen on.

AMD turned them down in 2012, which shows that while they may be far worse businessmen than nvidia, they at least know con artists when they see them.

If I don't stick my AC/5 in a "girl" by the end of this year my reactor is going to go critical.
You just don't UNDERSTAND you normie fuck.
Why are autocannons so bloody heavy?
As far as I understand things, the various autocannons are similar in function to modern weapon systems:
AC2 - 25 - 30mm / anti infantry and vehicles
AC5 - 50 - 85mm / anti air purposes
AC10 - 105 - 120mm / Armored class primary armament, anti infantry, vehicle, and armor
AC20 - 180 - 203 mm / Howitzer class, Anti everything, kaboom.
The M1A2 abhrams and most other modern battletanks mount something similar to a 105 - 120 mm cannon. For at least this design, including everything from the barrel and mount, its total tonnage makes up around 5 tons. So how do we scale up from 5 tons to 12? This is pretty ancient technology, if nothing else, I would have expected it to weigh significantly less than what it does now. We've been making cannons for literally centuries. We're real good at making something go fast and go boom. So why do mech mounted cannons weigh so bloody much? Even on a balancing standpoint it makes no sense. A PPC weighs 7 tons, does 10 damage, though it produces a massive amount of heat. An autocannon 10 weighs 12 + 1 tons and does the same damage, with a limited number of shots. In essence, you could equip a ppc, and 6 heat sinks, and have no risk of ammo explosions, and the ability to hit from much farther. Ac2's and 5's are pretty much a joke, and the AC20 is fairly situational(though it's incredibly fun to use)
I know the devs have mentioned that they are going to buff the lower calibure autocannons, but I think every single one of them needs to be buffed to some regard, or energy weapons need to run hotter.
Here is a little teaser of a little project I have been working on for fun. This is actual in-game footage of a game called ArmA with mods. Just wanted to create a little fantasy for me of what a tactical simulation type shooter was set in the Battletech universe. I'm curious to know what you guys think. Its not supposed to be much as a video, no oscars here, but it was definitely fun making it.

Because mechwarrior is based on a tabletop game from the bronze age.
In that game, heat is crucical, but ACs typically don't have to care about heat. Their excessive weight and ammunition requirement serve as the balancing feature that would normally be filled by heatsinks.
Stop bring real world logic into this. It's a tabletop game full of abstractions. It was foolish of PGI not to overhaul the underlying systems, especially since their tagline was 'this isn't your father's mechwarrior.'
>>144837753
>make energy run even hotter than it already does
I mean, buff autocannons.
But don't fucking ruin lasers even more.
