Such is life in the inner sphere.
Oliver Cook
Has the tournament slain /gerg/?
Parker Wilson
I'm getting really bored of mastering my current mechs even though I still have a lot of them. What should I go for?
1. Mauler? 2. Stalker? 3. Catapult?
I'm leaning towards the Mauler because my only IS assault is the energy-focused Awesome, but I'll need to buy at least one XL Mauler and I've only got 13 million in the bank right now...
Joseph Sanchez
Both maulers and stalkers are very slow assaults so prepare to suffer grinding them. They are pretty good though.
Cat is now very strong.
Logan Thomas
Depends on what mechs you currently have. If you just have laserboats and are bored of them, you can go for the mauler and make ballistic builds.
Blake Cruz

I guess a 90 tonner to round it out makes sense though.
John Lee
I guess you are lacking a big IS dakka mech. The best Mauler variant got nerfed in the last patch though.
Jack Taylor
do you guys have a discord or a teamspeak or something?
Jeremiah Davis
Pretty much.
Oliver Morales
>teammates crit my ct from behind ebin :DD
Sebastian Foster
There's a group mumble info in the OP.
Jayden Lee
>some guy thinks he's epik so clever teamkilling you while evading penalties by just stripping all your CT armor :DDDDD
Jose Perry
just your average day
Jaxon Harris
Which variant is that, the MX90? Still looks like the best one to me.
Evan Johnson
Looking at the patchnotes they just nerfed ballistic range and velocity, I was remembering it was something more severe.
Juan Hernandez
Velocity is very important for ballistics. Let's you land shots at range.

Elijah Anderson
catapult is still complete garbage except the K2 which is merely subpar. although since the geometry pass it sometimes manages to die to something other than headshots now, so there's that.
Jaxson Baker
>tfw nobody on your team does any damage
Ethan Morris
PGI wishes they could recycle shit like this.
Evan Garcia
empyrium, starmade from the deep, pulsar, no man's sky, the forest? they all seem prty fun
no1 else seems to be willing to provide input, pls be a sport /greg/
Alexander Adams
Too busy playing Doom.
Jaxon Nelson
They tried. Even put it up to a vote on the community if they should bring back old grab deals.
Kayden Edwards
>tfw can't buy hero mechs for less than 50 dollars these days
Tyler Turner
Yes, I am well aware, and Russ was deliciously salty about it.
What I'm saying is they wish they had the freedom to recycle their shit like reloaded is doing for hawken without being chained to an ancient playerbase who'll shit on the latest trannyverse project.
Nolan Baker
>being poor lol not the game for you
Jonathan Reyes
wake me up inside
Zachary Barnes
Is there a generally superior mad dog variant?
Jonathan Reyes
...
Joshua Cruz
Is there somehow an issue with my question? Most mechs have a variant that is better than the others by the nature of the quirk bullshit, no?
Hudson Morris
Here come dat boi.
Brandon Barnes
>clanner no nothing's wrong at all
seriously though, it probably depends on what build you want to do.
Easton Torres
Fuckin' seamless PGI...
Samuel Gutierrez
how big is it going to be relative to other lights? Kind of want to buy it since assassinating people from behind with machine guns and lasers sounds like fun
Joseph Davis
Think of a Cicada. Now imagine a Clan Cicada.
Jacob Howard
rip guess I'm sticking to my cheetah
Jacob Adams
Has anyone taken a stab at what it is yet?
Colton Rodriguez
Can someone, anyone, please reset the kong contract...?
Colton Long
bump
Bentley Robinson
Linebacker or Black Python.
If Black Python, score one bad ass fucking 75 tonner for the clans.
If Linebacker, clans get a 65 ton mech worse than the Summoner.
David Thompson
Where did you get the other pieces?
Jacob Roberts
Thread on official forums.
Parker Gonzalez
It totally could be a Vulture mk III
Justin Ortiz
Uh, why can't you?
Elijah Foster
Don't worry about it Laser, Vass or Pizza can do it they just haven't been on.
Anthony Nguyen
Linebacker confirmed.
Don't have permissions to.
Jose Stewart
THERE IS NO DISCORD. NO SUCH THING HAS EXISTED NOR WILL EVER EXIST. DO NOT ASK AGAIN
Adrian Ward
They could have given me a Black Lanner
Instead they push out this piece of shit, literally the worst Clan robot they could have chosen
Hunter Clark
that's my fetish
Daniel Allen
Yeeeaahhh... not going to bother with yet another clan shitmech. They are strapped for actually useable ones as it is.
I'm more curious as to why the fuck did these asian and negroid sperm gargling cuckold afficipnados would waste time with this when every second they waste is a player or two quitting forever.
Jayden Thompson
Go away Kit
It will have a torso to twist anyways
Parker Torres
...
Easton Harris
So PGI IS making money off Battletech.
Robert Williams
No fucking shit, did you think they were subletting the license and sharing their art for free?
Oliver Allen
I would, but the game has a nasty habit of locking up my computer this patch. Pizzacuck will do it if he gets on.
I've known we were getting linebackers for like 6 months now
Ryan Moore
Don't worry, goy. It'll be out for christmas alongside the madcat II.
Christopher Nguyen
At least it'll actually look good. Even if the robot is shit, its 80's/90's shit art deserves to be redone.
Dylan Ramirez
It will look "good" but you'll never see it because it's dead on arrival.
Hope you're there on launch day for it, because you won't see another one ever again.
Josiah Hill
Just for you, I'm gonna grab deal it, and main the fucking thing. Every match.
William Carter
t. G
Jaxson Gomez
man loses last remaining friends over spiteful grab deal
Hudson Wilson
it's still funny regardless
Christian Turner
>Linebacker Pls no
It's one thing that there are multitudes of shitmechs already in the game because they were fucked by game mechanics, but why do they keep adding more at a point where they should know better
Justin Myers
Unironically, can someone explain to me why the Linebacker will be terrible?
Isaac Myers
16.5t of podspace because of a 390XL engine with 4 locked DHS
On a 65 tonner
That is as much podspace as an Adder, and that's fucking terrible.
It doesn't go particularly fast either, 105kph.
Samuel Jackson
Do any of these sound good to you?
Thomas Martinez
Here's everything we know about it, starting with omnipods:
So it actually has an okay spread of hardpoints, right? Well, it can't use them for shit. It gets 16.5t as said above, equivalent of an Adder, at maximum armour. It throws all of its podspace into a massive engine that doesn't actually do very much for it. 105kph isn't worth the amount of tonnage it has invested in it.
It can't do anything with the potential 6M setup it could run. I mean you can technically do 6SRM6, but it's got most of the missiles in the arms and can't run Artemis on them if you want ammo. It can do some mediocre energy builds, but it can't boat high enough numbers of small pulse which would be most fitting for having such a focus on speed. Ballistics are right out unless it's Gauss/UAC20 + lasers, but everything else will do them better, including the Summoner which has more podspace than it. If you put a UAC20/Gauss on it you've got around 5 to 6 tons available afterwards without ammo, so you won't be doing much else with that either other than 3ML.
When your "high speed" brawling focused robot doesn't have enough tonnage to even use SRMs properly you know you have a shit robot.
They could quirk it out the ass and it might end up having a couple of decent, niche builds. They will also be making a Hero up that could give it slightly more to work with, but there's a lot against this mech.
William Wilson
How's evryone doing? Piggy still robbing you?
Carter Ramirez
It's basically the Spurdo of heavies with that ridiculously oversized engine, except you can't even boat small lasers.
The butthurt over this thing is incredible. "I'm leaving MWO forever." Like, wtf, just don't buy this one grab deal. Don't play the shit mech.
Xavier Lopez
Are you sure?
Brody Williams
Who the fuck is leaving the game over this
Is this more butthurt from the autists that throw a temper tantrum when any grab deal isn't the Mad Cat MK II?
Make sure it's a mercenary contract to an IS faction, Marik or FRR are probably best choices
Don't set a loyalist contract
Gavin Sullivan
give Taylor Swift contract setting powers and this probably won't ever be an issue again (Harabec's alt)
Caleb Diaz
Okay.
Done!
Nathaniel Phillips
Golden tears.
Parker Hernandez
>Imperius
Of course it's him, he does nothing but whine about any mech not being a Mad Cat MK II and begs Russ on twitter 24/7/365 for it
I hope it never gets put in the game just to spite him personally for being such a faggot about it
Ayden Robinson
>butthurt autist temper tantrum
Nothing new here.
Jose Adams
Is there a full-white version of this? I want to print it on my shirt.
Adrian Perry
What did he mean by this?
Jaxson Morales
Thanks to Clan omnipods, it's not even a matter of quirkpower. It's just a matter of how you want to shuffle your hardpoints around to best serve a given build type. You want a dead arm to shield with? Slap in a C-arm for Mad Dogs for superior toughness since you probably won't use that ballistic hardpoint. Better missile velocity and such? Asymmetric builds can take advantage of the better quirk-fewer hardpoints if you want, again lending to dead-siding your 'Mech.
Connor Ward
"Look at me, I'm a whiny whale and you don't get my money because autism."
Jose Ramirez
The mad dog CTs actually have some minor variations in the quirks. Which one is the best one? I'm not the same guy but I got interested.
C, B, and A are the best. Accel quirks are great, so are torso turn rate quirks for brawlers. Extra torso turn angle is really good. I'd say B is the best.
Wyatt Thompson
(continued because I accidentally hit post without finishing out my post)
A lot of it is up to personal preference though. The Mad Dogs all feel a little different, and it's up to you to decide which of those quirks you find most important.
Torso pitch angle is not super important but you might find you like it since the Mad Dog is heavily reliant on torso mounted weapons. Turn rate proper instead of torso turn rate isn't a huge deal and is the weakest of the quirks it has probably.
C is amazing, accel/decel rates of that caliber feel really good to play. Just try whichever appeals to you the most, then see what you'd rather have. Have to get 3 variants anyways.
Best thing I've read all day. I didn't know there was that much to spend money on in GTA.
>buying MB coins for MGSV too
oh man
Cameron Cooper
tfw the linebacker could look like a pretty cool guy
Oliver Nelson
I thought he quit back in april after that shitty townhall where Russ took a piss on their collective faces. Why would he ever log back in again?
Liam Garcia
Probably just to shit post and rub it in their faces that he's dumping all that money on Steam games.
Ayden Morgan
To bitch moan and complain it seems. In the last town hall Russ said the MadCat Mk. II WILL be coming out, so Imperius is back, thinking this was going to be it, even though literally everyone already knew it was going to be the Linebacker because Russ said the Clans were getting 4 more Omnis.
Oliver White
>everyone, everywhere desperately trying to latch onto any hope they can find that it isn't the linebacker but is instead the Mad Cat Mark II/Marauder IIC/Super Nova/anything else
this is golden
Imperius literally didn't even know the Mad Cat MK II wasn't an omnimech, though I suspect most people still don't anyways
Carson Rodriguez
>Super Nova I remember that Mech from MechWarrior 3 and the instant crater it made when it exploded.
Aiden Gray
Fairly terrifying on the hardest difficulty though. There's one mission where you face a couple of them at the end and they can totally ruin you if you aren't expecting it.
Still nothing compared to the swarm of Adders in that one mission though, holy fuck, those things shit out damage like crazy. Always liked to go to the river too so their ERPPCs didn't explode them.
Anthony Foster
Man, I hate skirmish. Everyone just pokes hoping the enemy team to come to them. Everyone is too pussyshit to actually push. At least the objectives force your team to move their fucking asses from behind their safety rock and fight.
Easton Reed
>At least the objectives force your team to run in and die like fucking retards fixed
Lincoln Taylor
I'd rather have a short game where my whole team dies like retards than an 11 minute match where we slowly pick them off.
