    Yeah... it looks okay on the Catapult/raven... the Phraken looks better on them, although i guess it will be pretty hard to beat that in my opinion... and it looks kinda 'meh' on the Jager aswell.
    I like it on the catapult. Something about "Warning: Incoming Missiles" on one of the pods makes me smile.
    Not so cool on the K2 though.

    Also, what colors did you use?

    Titanium White and Cyanotic


    OMG! the Wang is amazing with custom colors

    Two things:

    1) Not a fan of the new damage texturing. It just doesn't look right when I shoot somebody with lasers to see large caliber bullet impacts on their armor.

    and 2) Flame with primary color as Xanh and secondary as Edo = glorious fel flames!

    The builder says i have 6.5 tonnes free but the Mechlab in game says I have .5 tonnes free.

    I don't know whats wrong.

    Whats wrong [TBT-3C]: 2xSRM6, 4xMLAS, 320XL, DHS, Endo

    No, that's obviously an ICP Dragon. There's probably a hatchetman somewhere on it (Not the mech)

    So, were there any interesting changes in the patch that should make me want to play right now? New map, balance changes, something?

    I know about the new camo and frankly my dear I don't give a damn.

    It's a pretty bad build yeah, but it does what it was built to do with that loadout...snipe. AS7's are not very good at sniping. Though why would you snipe with the biggest mech in the game idk.

    What do you mean? The RS is a pretty amazing sniper because all 4 energy hardpoints are on the arms.

    Sniper [AS7-RS]: 4xERPPC, 325STD, DHS

    No Gauss, but extra HS's and a STD engine for way more survivability.
    You're looking at it the wrong way. Most STKs mount their energy weapons relatively high, AS7 arms are relatively low. The Atlas is not capable of doing peekaboo sniping over hills anywhere to the same degree that the Stalker can.

    No balance changes, no new stuff beside cosmetic.

    So we're all kinda waiting on the patch two weeks from now, right? That's when the proposed changes hit?

    Although if they managed to fix the damn minimap bug with this patch I may play between now and then anyway.

    The NARC change is both good and...pathetic.

    Good, because hey, NARC buffs. Still mostly useless, but getting there.

    Pathetic because the way they said the game should work is now being called a bug. Again.

    I really wanna play right now.

    But someone I work with decided addicting me to Game of Thrones was a better choice.

    Lol, I like the Raven camo. The hunchback camo says something on the hunch, but I can't make out what it is.

    I *really* want to like the Misery, because I love my stalker 3F. But...geeze. I can't really make a decent build with it. I come close with 4mlas, 1srm6, ac/20 1llas and a 300STD engine, Endo, DHS, but then I run out of crit spaces and can't load enough heat sinks, even if I drop the ammo. :( A gauss works a bit better, but I lose side torsos so often that just seems like a bad idea...
  • DaMoonRulzDaMoonRulz Registered User regular
    By one of the bottom hatches on the Dragon it says TROG on the buccaneer camo. Still doesn't make up for the crappy camo.

    If you were curious about Buccaneer paint on a non-K2 cat, I think it's actually pretty okay:

    There seems to be a bug with the mechlab where it only counts 10 heatsinks for the engine even if you have put more in there.

    Blearg, heat sinks in the mech lab and I have a colorful history. I'll take a look, thanks for the heads up!

    Man, tonight was a bad night for pubbie teammates. It seemed like almost every opposing team stuck completely together like they were 8 mans, while our teams kept splitting up and getting slaughtered one-by-one except for our lance. Did I miss the memo for sync-drop Mondays?

    5 assaults and full team vs 3 assaults and only 7 players.

    I just have to stop playing after a match like that. It always kills my desire to play, which frustrates the hell out of me, because I want to play.

    Weight matching > ELO. Fix your damn matchmaking, PGI.
