An apartment for a cockpit is ideal for extended missions. Plus you can invite your girlfriend along! Then you can have a cockpit in your cockpit! I'm so sorry

I think it would be cool if sensor lock let you fire just one weapon after using it, though that would heavily favour lights building around one big weapon.

To be honest I'm ok with that marauder. Also I wanted to note this: "Weisman is sanguine about the new BattleTech's prospects." He's a goon, and he reads PTN's thread! Well ok the article author does. vorebane fucked around with this message at 22:13 on Jun 24, 2017 |

Cyrano4747 posted:Well, proof that every hosed up thing is someone's kink I guess. I seem to be a major repository of such since I also like those gundam/battletech abominations, and think they'd fit in as a branch of mechs that specialize in agility and myomer strength. Although that Jenner seems to have a few dislocations.

Harmony Gold! What do they even have to complain about, I thought the MWO reseen are different enough that they decided to stick to their core competency of making sure no one ever hears or watches Robotech.

I had thought they were different enough to not be infringing, but I don't know where the line is for that. Against my better judgement I am going to root for PGI in this, they're at least making something obstensibly enjoyable.

The dadlas can't be the end boss, we need to get each of the installation fights that were teased in addition to the Nergal. Which we need to staple together from atlai to depict obviously.

This is the case, but I still need your support for a covert ops raid on PTN's notes. e: trip report: defeated by precision strike small laser.

I think a thing that could bring up assaults a bit is if they got an extra chunk of bonus move when they sprint, representing that when an assault does get up to speed they can have a lot of momentum keeping their bulk going to combine with an assault size amount of myomer. Disadvantage could be absolutely no wiggle room to change facing.

veedubfreak posted:Just remember, HBS made Shadowrun games which are more fun than Xcom games. So they're likely to get it right. Wrong, only shadowrun/x-com hybrid games are better than either shadowrun or x-com. I mean maybe you could do a nice triforce throwing battletech in there.

Zaodai posted:Literally all I am suggesting for this game is some kind of event that logically lets you tell the Restoration to gently caress off because you have a better offer. I think this would be a good touch, but I would also want the opportunity to use the directorate's offer to extort more cash from the restoration. If we're going to get really fancy that pay raise could come with the caveat of pushing the restoration a little closer to broke, meaning you

Nickiepoo posted:Yeah, I was specifically wondering about all the melee focused mechs which never showed up in MWO for reasons of 'we can't put melee in our game'. Can I hire some competent goons to make a melee inclusive robot action game? Here is my kickstarter pitch: I gave this robot brass knuckles, this ugly bastard a mace, and this guy? He brought his quad bladed battleaxe for free.

You can also go with 'we've been keeping this targeting computer from a different mech going with bubblegum and tinfoil' 'all my weapons are festooned about my mech's body and we don't have good enough tools to properly align them anymore' and 'I shoot my weapons one at a time so I don't miss with everything at once.' Not sure what the clans' excuse will be though.

Drake_263 posted:Fair reminder that the primary reason Clan LRMs don't have a minimum range in the tabletop game is because somebody typoed it when they were first writing the Clan weapons table, and when after the book was released they went 'Uhh that's not right we should fix that', the BT community's collective response was 'it's already in the book I have my hands on my ears, laaa laa la laaaa, I can't hear you'. BT Nerds - Taking full advantage of a typo mistake is more important than a fun well balanced game.
