Hawken is still great guys

...

Can someone gift me 6,500 MC?

>no thread for 8 hours.

RIP, robutts.

>that glorious feeling when getting 3k damage in a faction play match and being rewarded with total of 2 million c-bills

rly makes u think

Megahound needs to lay off the fatty foods

>that depressing realization when you waited 30 minutes for that match and realize that in the time it took for you to wait and play the match you could've earned three times as much in quick play

sent :^)

When will I receive it? Do I need to log back in?

You need to post your account username and password so we can directly inject the MC

How many jenners does a megahound need to eat weekly to maintain his swole size?

Didn't wait more than 3 minutes, actually. Sniping queues makes CW worthwhile :^)

I like it

You've managed to make a worse stalker 4n. Congrats.

>you are only allowed to play the best possible mechs in the game
literally kill yourself retard

>you are only allowed to play the most boring laser vomits possible
literally kill yourself retard

I already gave you instructions on how to improve your life, how are you responding to my message?

>thinking a stalker is the best possible
kek

>6LL
>vomit
Who are you calling retarded?

Great tier 5 build bro.

>people still think Tier 1 means anything
lmao

Do Lords even play the game anymore?

Not really, no. They've ascended to the egotistic nigger faggot tier where they spend more time shitposting how they're so much better than anyone else that it leaves them no more time to actually queue up for games.

>stand next to a rock
>200 fps
>shoot the rock with a ballistic weapon, causing pretty particle effects
>100 fps
lol

In the aftermath of the highest skill tournament, many of the former top tier players of the game have turned to salt statues, or gone missing.

So it's a command chair old man with a LRM boat assault, right? But get this, he's unironically using a terminator voice modulator. Not Arnold, 40k.

I've dropped against a few of them.

You can look up any player in the leaderboards to see how much they've played since the last reset, which was on the 1st.

>100-200fps on a 60hz monitor

I am really enjoying the Nova Prime with the small laser cutters. Fun shit.

keep me posted

I just got 500 damage in a match my man.

In other news, is there any medium with jumpjets that can support an AC20?

wowie

blackjack 1

Besides the BJ, most of the shaqs, but that's a really bad idea.

Are IS LRMs better than Clan LRMs?

yes

Maybe.

depends

Situationally.

Less than 180m, clan LRMs are better.

Because IS LRMs fire off in one big gob, there's less of a chance of the targeted mech making it to cover before they deal full damage.

IS lrms fly in a giant cloud, while clan lrms fly in a stream which means against moving targets the stream spreads damage and is overall less effective. Clan lrms launchers have a longer cooldown, but weigh half as much and also take up less slots.

The ammo itself is usually the bigger part of a lrmboats loadout so that isn't such a big deal, but clan mechs can afford to take a lrm launcher and IS mechs need to either be a lrmboat or ignore lrms completely.

Either way both weapons are supposed to be used in the 180-350 meter range, otherwise you're just wasting ammo unless you're on polar memelands.

Clan LRMs do more disruption which has its uses.

River City is the worst map.

River City is the best map.

No.
River City is the worst map.

Alpine is the worst map.

River City is the worst map.

Forest Colony is the worst map.

For general bombardment? Yes. Inner Sphere LRMs are better WEAPONS than the clan ones.

Clan LRMs are supplementary dispruption weapons through and through. The "no minimum range" part is a honey trap, you do 50% less damage at 120m, and do decimals at point blank.

The rate of fire on the clan LRM's also means that your missiles take something close to 0.5 - 1.5 seconds to reach their target fully in comparison to IS LRM's.

LRMs at their optimum range of 400-500 meters take 3.5 seconds to reach their target. For IS, this is true for all launcher sizes and makes them easily interchangeable. For clan, this means that only the 5's have that 3.5 second flight time, while 10's, 15's and 20's start getting more and more costly to keep track on your opponent.

AMS destroys Clan LRMs and the they fire in streams vs. the cluster of IS LRMs.

River shitty is terrible, but not on par with mordor or alpine memelands.

>AMS
Literally nobody past tier 3 uses AMS

>want to buy a 75 MC one shot camo
>70 MC

NEXT EVENT FUCKING WHEN

Linebacker release, duh.

What do I need to know about Hawken?

>releasing a mech that's worse than the phallus hawk
Microsoft's gonna freak

aaand that's why tier 1's have hissy fits in their games when LRMs rain on them.

You're beyond retarded if you think Linebacker is a bad mech.

On the contrary, the linebacker will have at least some viable builds.

It can run 6x medium pulse with 18 double heatsinks and a targeting computer.

It can run 2x c-LPL + 3x ERML, though it'll be hot.

It's weirder build will be 2 high mounted ERLL's with 6 supplementary c-SPL's.

Even just 6x ERML with fuckloads of heatsinks and a targeting computer will be fine and dandy.

What about the ass ass in?

Pure hot garbage unless it's very small, has strong quirks, and gets a big cockpit.

None of those will happen though.

>it's a mwll episode

Are you seriously bragging with fucking MW:LL scoreboard screenshots?

>65 tonner.
>best build is 6 medium pulse memes.

6 CLAN medium pulse.
And what's the issue?

Standard variant will be a 40 ton oxide, or a 5 tons lighter blackjack BJ-2.

XL280 with an extra DHS, 4x SRM4's with 5 tons of ammo, 2x JJs and 2x medium lasers.

35.80 alpha strike up to 270 meters, won't be able to sustain that for long. You'll likely get 110 or so damage out before you're forced to back off.

Other ones will be large laser snipers, with one variant being an ECM Cicada X-5.

Hero is just plain and simply worthless. A scattershot piece of shit which hardpoints were selected by a monkey throwing feces at pictures of Paul and Russ.

>that one guy with the same stock image replying to every mwll post
Keep me posted Kakos

>hey, guys, living legends is back.
>wow, one whole patch!
>game suddenly has 60 players.
>star lords catch on.
>game now has less than 30 players.

That sure lasted long.

More like dying legends

XD

>That one Starlord using Uncle Tom

>it's a "nobody shoots the fucking UAV" episode
when are they going to remove consumables, they add nothing good to the game

>now has less than 30 players
35 players online right now, on a sunday at noon

It has had two full servers every day since the patch

Just stop, Vass.

UAVs do not deal direct damage

I never understood why we have artillery and airstrikes as consumables

lol

when are people going to stop asking for arrow IV and mrms, they add nothing good to the game

>35 players
That's almost MWO numbers

>that one star lord crying in chat that he can't use his golden snot to glue wings on his fafnir.

>around 25k players logged into mwo on steam in the past two weeks

yeah, those are some real shit numbers

;^)

>35 players.

Whoa, you're gonna be as big as hawken if this keeps up.

Steam only represents a fraction of the actual playerbase.

You're not wrong. It's probably shitty kuritan weeaboos who want them for roleplaying purposes.

>MRMs
>don't add anything good to the game

keep me posted

>you will probably never see mechwarrior 5

>I have 8 hours to elite a meta robot for MRBC
>no event or bigmanz to make the grind less boring
>all this other shit I should do, or would rather do, instead

I can't be Highly Efficient(tm) to this

Kong needs to do a warmup or something so they won't lose the first match like they've done for the past two matches.

You can do it

Just believe

I have 40k gxp I'm not using, and I have basically all the modules I will ever actually need unlocked. If I really do have to fill in, I can just use that.

who?

gee I wonder who the one konger without a single MRBC viable mech might be

Dashing?

>dashing
>invited to MRBC

So how are you supposed to use flamers?

For brawling. If you have a single flamer, and they don't, you win by default.

Slap a couple on a light along with small pulse and go to town once the nascar comes to an end.

>I enjoy outdated media formats

>game drops below 20 (TWENTY) on a modern system
how can it be this bad in a game this ugly?

What game?

>modern

Sounds like you don't have a real CPU then
