Please stop making these threads. Thank you in advance.

No

Is it worth strapping a pair of Light PPCs onto a Locust?

Sure. Or a single Snub.

>it's a "the entire team stands around behind the river city citadel instead of pushing" episode
I fucking hate this map. And I'm sick of always getting these retards that would rather wait behind the big piece of cover for the enemy team to whittle them down instead of actually trying to do something besides sitting around waiting to lose.

Guys is MWO p2w?

Not really. It's Pay to grind faster. iirc, only three or four of the top 20 or 30 builds use premium mechs.

You mean in the water area with the helipad on the left?

Dunno why people stand there and wait for the enemy to push

Herken?

Tell me about transverse.

Nice one, kakos.

rynnäkkökivääri?

Lo wai?

I wish it produced more smoke for an explosion like that.

All matches are full with retarded people

Must be USA primetime

Post hawken memes.

>look for mechwarrior general.
>page 10.

Have a pity bump.

fuck you

t. aussie shitter

I need this mech in MWO. When...?

...

When you stop touching yourself.

Then I shall have someone do it for me!
Huzzah!

...

Hey thread, should I go 4x Small Pulse Lasers and 2x Flamers on the Locust-1E?

Smugs.

:3

>soundcloud.com/mechwarrior/wc2017-warhorn4 playing repeatedly, overlapping on itself multiple times

Yeah not going to get annoying at all

I think the warhorns are all a little too long, and should travel a little farther.

What are the current best weapons and mechs?

Bipedal mechs are the current meta

Holy shit how Shaix is so good? Like DAMN!

wowie!

It's called the Imp.

>overlapping on itself multiple times
>because they're not synced up, it just sounds like an earthquake
aaaaaaaaaaa

heh

what?

nothing perssonnell rustler

hmm

i wish this wasn't so situational

nice

>mounting literally half the LRMs that thing's supposed to be able to fit
Why?

finally you've figured out how to make a proper webm mole ass

>you have 3 missile slots so you should fill every one

unless you mount a tiny engine you won't have the ammo capacity to make 3 launchers worth it. if you mount a tiny engine it means you're gonna get rushed down a fucked. the thing gets plenty of cooldown quirks to make a single lrm15 viable especially when your narc hits at over 600m.

if you want higher lrm burst damage, use a hunchbac

rmmt

I wasn't saying to fill all 3, more like fill 2 of them. Double ALRM15 has been a pretty staple build for the 7M for years, it just looks weird seeing it be played with half the firepower.

you are weird

>Double ALRM15 has been a pretty staple build for the 7M for years

sure if you want to completely ignore the narc quirks and be an unguided lrm shitter who is completely reliant on his team for lox

>community casters bought out by the pig.
>banning people from MWOWC17 twitch chat for using twitch meme pictures.

Good one, mdmzero

who/what/when/where/why?

>Assaults sitting back with enhanced zoom

Why do they bother playing assaults?

>mech category that is generally slower than anything else and often very slow to turn or move their torsos
>WAAAH WHY ARE THEY LOADING UP ON HEAVIER LONG RANGE GUNS AND CAPITALIZING ON THEIR TWO ADVANTAGES?! WAAAAH!

Because for the most part, assaults are gunboat templates and considering brawling requires at least your teammates to participate in order to not get instantly shredded, it's more logically sound to just build a gunboat and plink from range.

>Logical
>Constantly lose games


That's not logical, that's self serving to the point where you die anyway.

Memes.

>just learned the loyalty Urbanmech is going to have 0 ballistic points

AHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. WHY.

>bitching about single variant that doesn't have ballistic when all the other variants are already heavily ballistic based

without ballistics there is absolutely no reason for me to ever use that fucking loyalty variant

>there is absolutely no reason for me to ever use that fucking loyalty variant
what are fucking MRMs and RLs?
I like ballistics too but that doesn't mean you can't have fun without them

>3E 2M in a 30 tonner
It's fucking shit mate.

Is page 10 code for american prime time?

yep, and ded gaem

Tonight, on KONG news:
A special investigation conducted by Kong Internal Affairs (KIA) has concluded that the persona known as "Rather Dashing" is indeed a hipster.

When the news crew approached the pilot for further comment,he segued into a monologue regarding obscure music and tiraded about liberals while vaping. His colleagues were heard in the background awooing.

When's MAV?

The music he posts is pretty good.

>$60 for the battletech beta
reeee

>yfw you hear rather rainbow dashing broadcasting indie hobby-grade industrial synthwave b-sides.
>yfw his hipster box glasses are so huge they almost poke your eye through the internet.

I hope to God this event proves what a worthless weapon the Heavy Gauss and LBX20 are.
Holy shit this is awful.

He's been posting lots of Japanese jazz lately. He posted this youtube.com/watch?v=Hrr3dp7zRQY and this

youtube.com/watch?v=Q76UngzHX5Y And this, whoops.

Light gauss and heavy gauss are bad, but as least dual clan LBX20 is serviceable

Yeah, that's true, and great and all. But uh- IS LBX20 is the worst thing ever. EVER.
This is what they get for copying over shitty CBT balance into an FPS game. It should have followed the IS LBX10 paradigm in being one crit and one ton less than its AC/X counterpart. Would have made it usable. Instead I have to really cram the damn thing into a few select shit mechs that are just awful with it.

Uh... page 10? Really?

>MRM + machinegun bushwacker


Don't care that it;s not optimal it's pretty fun and I can get some great amount of kills with it.

It's pretty obvious that most of these events are just around driving numbers to show that the game is still alive and to get data on weapons/Mechs.

Suggestions for next mech? Thinking Light or Heavy because I have the least of them.

I was considering a Javelin or Assassin for lulz with SRM backstabbing or a Roughneck just for fun memes with LBX10/20's and MRM's or something.

I'm having a great time with my 3xAC/2 + 2xML Bushwacker, and performing pretty well. Sometimes something just works for you.

This most recent event is absolutely a data gathering thing. Who knows, it might result in some good balance changes for ballistics.

> Who knows, it might result in some good balance changes for ballistics.

It almost certainly should my survival has increased dramatically during this event, either lasers need a reduction or ballistics need a buff in velocity and some in damage.

>The Urbanmech having that much armor is actually broken

They're harder to kill than Assault mechs, I really don't know what pig was thinking

>he doesn't know about the arrow iv urbie used by word of blake to nuke mercs during the jihad

If you're using NARC why bother with Artemis?

mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=59&l=2914c1b57e0f8ae23d57734af02c358f1ac53ae3

I'm theorycrafting a 260 here because I do have one lying around, but the usual also works out fine.

>260 engine.

Fuck am I reading.

>ER meds
>XL260
>max armor everywhere
>ammo placement

...

Who is the worst player in kong, and why is it dashing?

Because Kit is objectively the best light pilot.

>best light pilot
>light pilot

best pilot overall*

Old men in police urban mechs telling team what to do

Must be american prime time

Old men in shitty ricers going WEEEEEEEE
