Re: Mech Warrior Online

I might give the Cicada 2A a shot. 3M feels a bit too much like a bulky Jenner, and the Hunchback, as cool as 9 lasers is, is not my thing. 6 hard points on a single part would make it too useless too easily.

And I guess I could hang out with the Hussars. I have no issues being a JD bondsman when the clans arrive. They're well treated when you know how to fight.

Yeah that is the 4J the one I am rocking right is the 4SP it now has 2 lasers on each arm, one laser on the head, and 2 "hunches" on left and right torso for the SRM's.

There is no way that I could be alive and out of weapons.

You know what's awesome? Getting hit in the shoulder and seeing all but one medium laser go red in your loadout.

Yeah 80-84 kph is a very decent speed for running around capping.

Hey now, Raven killed an awesome with the small laser on his hunchies head once. That was pretty wicked.

ya know the only real downside to any hunchback is if you are alone you're dead... that said the most well balanced is the 4sp... all the others are all but crippled once that shoulder goes cause the arms are soon to go after but don't ever underestimate the head laser cause its usually pretty awesome when you need it most

I learned this the bad way best is to be at least with a teammate if you are faster or hang up with the bulk of your team to focus fire. Gev and I tried both strats last night we went together to a node cap spree but our team would get slaughtered without our firepower.

It is better to have a DSLR registered account so your posts are not stuck in the queue.

It is really funny seeing people on their heavies trying focus Gev's Dragon instead of my Awesome until is really late.

I bet! muahahahaha

ekster the implementation of the flamer in MWO does not really work in only adds a 2% heat (not cummulative) and more flamers don't increase the heat rate at all.

While it only applies 2 % heat, i believe it doesn't allow for cooling, so you can burn up by using weapons. While not increasing heat, it makes the heat sinks less effective.
