1st for buy ur javelins

...

JUST

what mech should I build next, I only have one mech so far

that ac40 jaeger bomb looks fun

Tamber Woff

>Kit wants to fuck this thing
wew

Needs a hair stylist, maybe can help

what weapons?

It would be fun, until you realize you have to get into close range with an xl engine and big side torsos.

The gaussjager is much better.

Wait, does Kit seriously want to fuck Spuddy? I haven't kept up to date on whom she wants to bareback her ratty hole.
Honestly Spud deserves better.

To be honest though a lot of Kong is pretty visually unappealing.
I mean Dashing looks like a goddamn Mexican (CHI)
If you tell him that he doesn't even get angry, he just sighs sadly in defeat.

I'm not even going to post Harabec...
Ack.

please fuck off to /soc/

I feel like this image needs bloodshot eyes
then it would be perfect

You got pics of Vass post-Stilnoct snorting?

It's not Camwhoring or Meetup, though.
Just a friendly look at your local KONGlets.

Is there an IS Mech that runs like... 3x Large Laser and an AC10? Or something like that

I can't post Vass in the thread, it could cause serious harm to unworthy eyes.
He looks like you'd imagine though; an enlightened Swedish wizard.
I wonder how much mana is stored in his long, flowing grey hair.

Cata

Dragon

Marauder

is it worth spending real money to buy mechs?

or do I give into the jews?

That's Dashing? He does look somewhat Hispanic.
But he honestly looks like a pretty cool dude. I'd hang out with that silver haired bastard.

For spud's XKONG 2:LONG WANG reincarnation, I've made him a shirtless dudebro wearing aviator shades, a backwards ballcap, some shorts with a crotch guard thing and elbow/shoulder pads
For kit well I've taken some artistic liberties. Let's say they're akin to quiet from MGSV

...

>See what kong looks like
>Claw out eyes in disgust and horror
I can only imagine what the other konglets look like
Or what the discordians look like

>Claw out eyes in disgust and horror
You asked for this, you fucker.

I never asked for this.

>Harabec.jpg
I wanted to live my whole life never knowing, never having the potential to put a face to the voice. Not even carrying a mental image in the fear that I might ruin it. And it still feels like someone just shot my dog in front of me.

Also on a completely different note.
Shaix is fucking hot. Like you wade through all of the rest of KONG and you're scared, and then there's Shaix.
He's daddy material, tbqh.

dyel

>Shaix is an old men
What a fucking surprise

>Shaix is fucking hot.
Nigga u gay.

WTF does that shirt say? Also Shaix is cool guy but he should be squatting while wearing a tracksuit

Is there a clever way to fit the phrase "Minimally Viable" into twelve characters

Min Viable and MinmlyViable aren't doing it for me

nonviable

MiniVayaBell

Very expensive.
And it all looks like shit.
I'll stick to buying my crap from thrift and surplus stores.

How is Spirit Bear? Seems like you could run a nice SRM+UAC brawling setup on it with 2 LPLs on the side.

Can we please not make this a weird personal clique chatroom where we share IRL pics and rate and talk about drama bullshit?

Fucking gold

You guys NEED to check out Brigador.

youtu.be/50GQq2FtdR8

Holy shit I can't stop playing this.

Fucking reddit gold my dude.

About to buy a Timber Wolf, which varient should I get?

Anything but Prime, Prime is by far the worst one
TBR-S for JJs and maximal pop-tarting, TBR-A/B/C for a Center Torso 1 E hard point (medium lasers only)

So if im a huge faggot, and pop-tart every game, go TBR-S?

Yeah.

Post yfw the skill tree will save MWO

I just want the hundreds of millions I spent on modules back, so I can kit out a KDK3 or a Spirit Bear

>Using xp on the KDK 3 to be almost as powerful before prenerf
The horror

>new optional customizable ultraskillquirks on Gargoyle makes it the deadliest clam mech
What now?

which one is better in your guy's opinions for a black knight?

mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=321&l=b6bad84bcade57f2f93cad676efd4e04ef54fb7b

5 med pulse + 2 lrg pulse
-10% heat and AMS

mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=323&l=4841abad699c652d446262953e39ba32bc86288b

5 med lasers + 3 lrg pulse
15% energy range, 20% torso turn and -5% heat

which one is overall better?

Didn't they state they would be refunding all that shit?

>Gargoyle
>deadliest
What is it, C-SPL overquirkening? Like that pulses in MW3?

My plans for now are - c-bills Huntsman to Asrmbomb IShitters in scoutings, then time to understand my shit with new skills then deal with it while waiting c-bills MAR IIC.

Bigger alpha - take the 3LPL one, but move all LPLs in ST.

>the only mech i'm positive on with a real sample size is the trial highlander
hold me /gerg/, i'm so bad

How much AC10 ammo is enough AC10 ammo?

Don't worry, MemeRMlanders soon. It has a super positive outlook.

3 tons would give you 2.5 minutes of constant shooting. So somewhere around there I'd assume.

There's a general solution - you take as many tonso of ammo as guns or launchers you have +1.
It's enough in general, does not apply to MG and AMS and if you're bouating single weapon or have no enery equipped.

3 tons is the limit for any mech that doesn't have ways to survive for extremely long. Even 2 tons is usually enough for most players within their average lifespans.

>most players within their average lifespans
You mean hurr-durr we march straight to get rekt?

What is the best camo for a cataphract?

Not that one.

TSW IFT?

I mean anyone who moves to attack rather than the ones who are always "after you".

Alright. I'll run 2.5 tons of AC10 and 3 tons of SRMs

Just don't post your build.

What are some fun laser vomiters I can get without feeding the piggy? MIIC looks lovely, but, well, y'know

>Fun laser vomiters

Warhammer.

Timber Wolf.

Ebon Jaguar.

Quirkdraw.

BANSHEE - turn it into a Hunchie

Energy draw shouldnt be scrapped
Sick of Clan laser spewing mechs being able to alpha 3 - 4 times without shutting down

Quircks and separate tonnage must be scraped. Sick of IS normies being able to alpha 5-6 times while in heavier mechs.

I hope tier 2 and 1 have people talking in their games
Tier 3 is shit

Be carefull what you wish for.
T2 and even T1 suck as well and the most kinds of faggot that talk there, if at all, are obnoxious pug commanders.

Hi There!

When do we get new infomation on mw5?

And ded thred
Rly tickles that pickle

get back to sleep

>only 12:18am
Never, I need to discuss robots and robot related video games

Energy draw could go fuck itself the moment they backpedaled on clan pepsi.

It was a shitty duct tape fix anyway, for something that would be solved better by making heatsinks high dissapation low capacity instead of the other way around.

That line of thinking kept fucking over clan tech more on hot maps.

Since hot maps only provide +4% extra passive heat, high capacity heatsinks barely feel it. The -30% heat dissipation rate that high dissipation heatsinks got on hot maps however screwed clans something fierce.

Not to mention, in order for high capacity vs high dissipation heatsinks to be fair, the high dissipation would have to be so efficient that by the time an ERPPC finishes cycling its cooldown period, A vast majority of the heat it generated should have dissipated already.

I mean all heatsinks are supposed to be dissapation and not capacity.

>Not to mention, in order for high capacity vs high dissipation heatsinks to be fair, the high dissipation would have to be so efficient that by the time an ERPPC finishes cycling its cooldown period, A vast majority of the heat it generated should have dissipated already.
Yes, that is the idea. In the context of reigning in the total alpha damage of a mech the capacity vs dissipation thing can have a pretty strong effect that is balanced on a knife's edge between being under the heat limit or over it. So as long as it forces players to space out their weapons fire based on their heat gauge rather than the 0.5 second spooky heat barrier, it will work out, probably.

Clan DHS doesn't need to be exactly balanced against IS DHS because we are going for complete parity between both tech bases here. The Clan DHS is allowed to be inferior overall in return for being smaller.

This. Increasing heat cap was a huge mistake, it only reinforces the hit and run peekaboo high alpha mentality. To be honest the most a mech should be able to fire is 2 PPCs simultaneously. Which I guess still allows for Goose+2PPC builds, fuck. We're all fucked. Dead game.

Goose is a ticking critbomb at least

christ

My bad, should I post my AC10 3SRM4 2ML XL Cent build again? I forgot to

Should I buy the Javelin for everything that isn't the actual mech? $15 seems bretty good

If you want the paint, title and MC then sure
The actual mech will be hot garbage

senpai you're like a year late

>We're all fucked. Dead game.
This. Powecreep is unstoppable, that killed PS2.

Power creep killed ps2? What happened there, I thought everything was CARVs and Orions

i really fucking hope PGI gets better at modeling in MW5: Mercs

PLEASE look like the concept art, PLEASE no tumors
