Leo Wright
I'm just glad it seems to always have two full servers at any given time (maybe growing?). Its a good break from MWO but I still need both in my life. I like to customize my mechs, but the bigger battlefields and earning your mechs/vehicles through damage and objectives is fun. I feel like I can relax a bit in LL and enjoy myself. TFW you longtom that extended-range lrm boat in one shot. Or anything for that matter...
Ayden Jackson
Uac20 + 3 small lasers good for an adder?
Robert Smith
2uac2 adder is fun 2erppc + flamer also good
Landon Kelly
Ive never understood flamers and their affect on heat efficiency If I remove the flamer it buffs it up by like 0.4 So do other weapons suffer because you bring a flamer?
Ayden King
Heat efficiency goes by if you're firing everything at the same time, I believe. So, going by the heat management thing's rules, yes.
Anthony Cook
Is anyone else having super annoying stutter issues on the main menu?
Jaxon Ramirez
Are there any meta builds that pretty much never overheat?
Nicholas Lopez
Never seemed to have the boom I thought It'd have. I like my D: 4 med pulse + 1 ER sml and A: 2 streak 6 + 2 streak 4 + 1 ER med
Jeremiah Mitchell
I now have 130 front CT armour on my HGN-732, I still dont feel like its enough.
Hunter Sullivan
What's a good ballistic mech that isn't an assault?
Jose Flores
You'll niggas wish you were as pimpin as me.
Isaac Thompson

Nicholas Lee
I swear, the longer I leave the mechlab up, the more fucked up everything gets
Christopher Ramirez
Outside of dual gauss or ppc poptarts, not really. If you aren't at risk of overheating then you probably aren't bringing enough firepower.

I'm really miffed about the grind for C-Bills otherwise this game would be okay but progression takes forever.
Cameron Wright
The game would be great and not much of a hassle if the grind was retarded. I put it on the World of tanks/War of the Roses level of grind
Nolan Torres
>World of tanks lolno
You can get any robot you want on your very first day of playing the game. World of Tanks requires you to slog through a half dozen shitty tanks.
James Phillips
After that it still takes a super long time to get anything else though unless you want to buy cheaper mechs. Noobs also waste their cadet bonus on shit mechs/builds most of the time.
Ian Gray
After getting to tier 6 on the british line, i fucking uninstalled that shit I dont mind the grind in games, but wot is disgusting
Zachary Russell
Imagine if you had to play shitmechs like the Commando, Kintaro and Ice Ferret back to back just to graduate into the good Mechs...!
Angel Miller
Agreed. I also don't like that, especially given how long it takes to grind C-bills, that you're forced to buy certain things with MC. Things like camos, cockpit items, and other things like that. As someone with plenty of time to play but not enough money to spend on stupid F2P game cosmetic shit, I really like it when a F2P game allows you to have access to the same stuff that people who throw money at the game can get, except through normal gameplay and time. Unfortunately not many games do that, or do it in a way that makes it feasible.
Benjamin Williams
least it's not warthunder grind
Asher Jenkins
Thats like saying at least I'm not 1 year into cancer.
Xavier Morgan
If someone started playing today, by tomorrow they could have two equipped timberwolves.
>tfw you started there was no free premium time, no tutorial money, no cadet bonus, no half off sale
Anthony Green
therein lies the rub
no one wants to play timberwolves all the time despite how good they are
and trial mechs will never be good enough for people because you customize them
Ethan Long
thank you for using the gargoyle my favorite shitmech but your loadout choice is questionable
Jack Ward
Exactly, anyone complaining about the grind has no idea what they're talking about. Grind was real a year ago. Today there's no grind at all, you just play and it's easy.
Cooper Young
>yfw the game will be even better in a few months when they remove the three mech requirement
Pure luxury
Easton Kelly
I could do that on a Lacerator. What an awful build
Parker Powell

Ethan Kelly
Even the Spurgoyle's best build is literally a big shitty Nova.
Nolan Sanchez
Should I just make a new account for the cadet bonus?
Jayden Richardson
What for? every account that isn't beta already got it's cadet bonus.
Austin Carter
I'm new and I'm not sure if I wanted heavy or assault, assault just seems better.
Angel Williams
New players shouldn't use Assaults
Joseph Bell
>assault just seems better
There's lot of shit assault pilots who are new who think that way.
The recommended mechs to start with are mediums and heavies. The reason for this is you learn to play correctly, ie. stick with a group, focus fire on targets, learn to torso twist, maneuver tactically to avoid being flanked or rushed.
Assaults require knowledge of the game to use correctly. Anyone who can't consistently do at least 500 damage in an assault is fucking over their team and needs to go back to the academy.
Cameron Hughes
There's basically two assaults (variants, not even chassis) in the game that are actually decent. All the other assaults are just shitmechs that perform mostly because everyone is retarded.
Daniel Wilson
I dunno I'm just tier 4 pilot but it seems like the meta is 'group up the most and obliterate people who dare poke' and then with the number advantage you just steam roll.
Gabriel Myers
>warthunder grind >any where near as bad as wot You can literally play any tank/plane in a nation and earn experience to unlock any other tank/plane of that nation, on top of being able to one shot shit that's higher battle rating than you if you know where to aim. Shit is light years ahead of wot grind, and taking 12 shots to fucking kill something two tiers above you.
Alexander Collins
What's a realistic amount of damage one should be looking to put out per game? Don't give me any of those bullshit meme answers, just looking to see what's average
Samuel King
500 with at least one KMDD.
Hunter Sanchez
Depending, on assaults and heavies if you cant break 250 damage you shouldnt be using them For shitmechs its expected to get under 200 damage but still bad
Michael Reed
So 130 front CT armour on a huelander still ends up melting just as fast as before.
How do we fix best assault?
Isaiah Sanchez
Fix jumpjets Rescale it
Christian Lopez
explain? Source?
David Howard

Angel Thompson
There's a new skill tree in the works, which will replace the current basic/elite/mastery system in place now. One of the confirmed things to be removed is the 3 mech requirement for maxing mech skills.

Nathaniel Gonzalez
Best ppc hillhumper is HBKIIC
Jose Rogers
Does it matter what TBR I get between A/C/D (the 1E CT ones)? I want to make a brawler and or laser vomit Timmy.
Also what does 4ASRM6 look like on a Timbuktu? Like, visually, is it cancer or kind of cute/tolerable?
David Martin
but it doesn't have PPC quirks
Liam Green
Doesn't matter. Has very high mounts and jjs. You can stick enough heatsinks and a targeting computer to get strong results.
Elijah Miller
Can clam Hunch do Dakka well?
Logan Howard
if you like ultra ac2's heck yes
Luke Stewart
>you will still need multiple mechs if you ever want to run different builds on the same chassis
hope you didn't sell ur robuts
Ayden Price
I've been having a lot of success with x2 EPPC and x1 Gauss Rifle on my Ebon Jaguar.
Jordan Gonzalez
Depends on chassis and role. Anywhere from 300-600 I guess.
Angel Barnes
rip
Mason Lee
You're not going to like this answer, but it depends on your team composition, your build, the mode, and the enemy team composition and skill level, also the length of the game.
300 damage with a pinpoint damage mech is much different than 300 damage with a laser vomit mech.
300 PPFLD is multiple dead or at least opened components. 300 laser damage could be insignificant if spread across multiple mechs.
1k+ PPFLD is extremely good, and basically a solo team kill no matter how shitty your aim was.
1k spread damage can be just as good, but is much more dependent on player skill in aiming full duration. 1k damage poorly aimed might be nothing if spread across the entire enemy team.
Here is an example of an extremely good match with 4x ERLL hellbringer. Not only is it an ace, but the 6 KMDD is significant, for 928 long duration laser damage.
More average is like 500-600 with a 2-3 kmdd, assuming I survive the whole game and play conservatively.
Jaxson Murphy
and here is an example of a high damage game where I had extremely shitty aim
1700 damage with only 4 kmdd with large pulse lasers is so bad that it almost looks like I was farming damage on purpose
basically your damage number alone doesnt matter
your damage divided by your KMDD is a better way to gauge your effectiveness
William Cruz
Does it matter where I install MWO online from?
Adam Gutierrez
Whoops. MWO. Meant from steam or just the microsoft.net shit.
Caleb Diaz
Doesn't really matter unless you want to buy Steam packs, which you shouldn't want since they're bad deals
Austin Bailey
pretty sure the steam packs just give you a redeem key?
Henry Clark
Hey, /KONG/, i just a Adder, how do i get good in it? Prime for life? 5 MEDPULSES? SRM24 and a flamer?
Cameron Howard
Thou should ask GONK for clantech suggestions.
Alexander Reyes
Two ER PPCs and maintain 8/8 pods for PPC quirks
Liam Ward
So I just installed the portal, but how the fuck do I play the game?
Jacob Anderson
Dual ERPPC or dual UAC/2.
William Hill
If its the first game - you just walk where you're supposed to, in a couple levels you'll be taught.

No, I figured out the issue, apparently i have to patch the game before i can launch it.
