As much as I love the Warhammer. What they've designed is kinda ugly, and will probably end up like the Cent where the in-game model is squat and (more) ugly because it's 1.5x wider than the concept art.

gently caress, fine. I'll admit I'm having fun with a lovely game I haven't played since back when we were doing boring Awesome death marches to cap. Invite me so my waddling up and deleting someone has people to follow up. Spreadsheet And also to save me from this guy who apparently saw me down in Tier 5, and is now sending me unit invites. E: And won't stop sending me invites, I wonder how many times I can decline before he actually says something. Unhappy Meal fucked around with this message at 08:04 on Dec 26, 2015 |

I mostly look at the AC20 XL build, realize we've been building the Cent that way since it came out, and decide I'd rather spend that 6.5mil on a trash can.

DancingShade posted:*Most people are gently caress awful at aiming so this isn't a big deal. Pubs who apparently have a seizure whenever they click their mouse. Cockeyed aiming at the ground beside their target. Aimbots that miss every shot because they're using autocannons. It is truly a wondrous game.

Current 1.3.0 development snapshot is x64 and DX11 compatible (For the lazy. Scroll down, blue column.) You just have to put up with it wanting to update nearly every time you start it. It also hooks in with Win10 if you've got that and sends toast notifications for chat messages. Great/Annoying depending on your temperament.

Dumping your armor on a component for one more heat sink or one more ton of ammo is not worth the cost of the extra damage you could potentially be soaking with it.

Rocketpriest posted:The RS commits the mortal sin of having enough laser hardpoints in the arms to make you want to use them for things other than shielding your body. Way back when people used to put 4 large lasers on it and chain fire them, which could work I guess, but Stalkers are better for that with their tiny, high arms. The AS7-D is probably the good bet. It can run a pair of UAC5's and three large pulse lasers, or two large pulses and two LB10X's because why not (this one has the benefit of giving you a completely dead left side), Or just run it almost stock with 4 medium lasers, an AC20 and 2 ASRM6's. It's not glamorous, but it's serviceable enough to elite out for mastery on Ghost Dad. Someone is forgetting the halcyon days when even the RS could fit a STD400. An Atlas briskly jogging at you was pretty terrifying. Sure it only had 4 MPLs, but it was still an Atlas.

Something I've been meaning to ask you guys is what the optimal ammo counts for stuff is since I'm only familiar with SRMs, and the AC20 at about 25 shots per mount. Specifically how many shots should I be aiming for with the smaller ACs and I guess LRMs?

Pattonesque posted:pretty sure the nova can manage 14 Alright. Flamer math time for everyone. To overheat an Elited mech within 4.75s that's boating nothing but heat sinks you would need... Singles (53 HS, 136.32 Heat Cap, -9.72 h/s) 9 Flamers IS Doubles (20 HS, 96 Heat Cap, -6.09 h/s) 6 Flamers Clan Doubles (31 HS, 100.92 Heat Cap, -7.57 h/s) 7 Flamers Note: Those are theoretical maximum heat sinks you can cram into something, there are no mechs that can actually fit that many. All numbers based on what Smurfy is telling me the Internal/External values are.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xe-GL_SPt90 Patch preview, but the important part is the flamer visual update and the note that overheat from flamers is limited to a maximum of 90%, so really good but not comedy lockdown.

TheParadigm posted:Today I learned that crabs can very nearly shoot directly behind them with it which is all kinds of hilarious for baiting lights and running away from things. This seems like it's just something mediums do for some reason. The loyalty wolverine, hunchbacks and griffins all have 190+ degrees of arm reach behind them. Sadly all they have are small amounts of lasers and ballistics. I wanna chump a chasing light with 3 SRM6s to the face. E: Oh wait, the Stormcrow has 185 degrees of reach around with Clan Streaks.

A.o.D. posted:The nova has enough slots that it can flamer fist and fist gently caress, all in the same mech, since it looks like you don't need all that many flamers to keep someone boiling. Yup, the most you'll ever realistically need to make a mech hit 90% in the 4.75s grace period is 6, and 4 will suffice for the vast majority of mechs that aren't assaults carrying 10-13 external doubles.
