There's a lot they could do with the game to make it better, including a basic dropship mode. Actually, they could have done a lot with the game at...
It's kind of like that now. You want to snipe, use this mech. You want to brawl, use this one. If you want to do your very best this one will work...
I'm sure you're right, especially with the group queue. It's just that I get very annoyed that guys like me who don't have the time to get into group...
I had an idea earlier today I felt was too good not to share. Mostly it's just wishes and dreams, but they are very nice wishes and dreams. It is...
Actually, as far as income boosts go I was thinking of a very large boost so you can make more then in the normal game modes even in a stomp. But I...
I'm wondering how much it would increase the CW population to boost the cbill earnings?
Yep, I was thinking of something like a single AC10 or AC5, 2 SRM4's and 2 mpl's and whatever std engine you can put in it. Might be an ok brawler......
Just my two cents, and it's only two cents since I've never used it and all my experience comes from messing around on smurfy and using the other...
Yes! Get them elited! It makes a world of difference in their performance even if it can be a pain to have to buy and grind out the basics in a mech...
It simply comes down to this. PGI wants and needs new players who stick around and to do that new players need to have fun. Most players in their...
Sadly, it's true. Best I ever had with the 1V was 609, but that was on alpine. Most matches I felt I did good on I look at the score after and see I...
That's the obvious build and gives the highest dps. 4 dps (mpl's) at 350 max effective range is alright and the armor will really help with...
The 1V gets a range boost too, 15% I think though I can't remember offhand. That puts full damage out to 775m or so. It isn't 1000m, but the dps is...
The 1M is the only Locust I refuse to play! The 1E is fun and can be brutal. The 3M can also be somewhat brutal. The PB is nice because of ECM. The...
I'm sure it has something to do with their business model, which is probably release mechs/make money without much thought going into making them...
Anyone bother to play the 3V? This is just out of curiosity since I love Locusts. The armor and structure look nice, a little better than a Commando...
Well, on second look, those are quite the armor and structure quirks for the 3V. Too bad it doesn't have 4 mg hardpoints or 3 energy hardpoints. Or,...
I've always run MGs on mine and have never noticed this. But then I always run on low settings... Also, the MGs on this new one are on the arms I...
I really wish they'd give it some wacky utility quirks like to AMS or sensor range or target decay.
I've never tried the HM since I don't have much money. The 733C seems slightly better, but only slightly. It's the only one I still own and I only...
Before quirks I ran it with 5 ml's and a bap and it was only ok, but still fun. It had good alpha, good range, and good dps. The problem is heat. You...
Uhhhh, don't think that's even possible with a Locust... I am thinking of an XL180, 1 LL or ERLL, and 4 sl's. It'll use all the energy slots and...
I'm trying to figure out what to do with my 3M. After the last quirk pass the 1E outperforms it in dps, alpha, range and heat. Only thing the 3M has...
Holy crap that's bad! Did everyone bring troll builds?
That's about the closest a Cicada can get, but that heat and no velocity bonus! I think a duel ERPPC 2B would not work to well for me. Since their...
The nice thing about the TBT-7M is you can use it decently with LRM's or SRM's and see what you like. Of course, it's the more expensive one but most...
I generally agree with this, but than I have no money... Since you have the 5J Steelbuddy, mess around with builds on it. It's really quirked for...
Picked this mech up again and ran it with this build. It works! It is an exceptional sniper, able to move to good positions and out of bad positions...
Realistically though it's hard to give advice to people because of different skill levels and play styles. I can tell you what works well for me and...
Not a pro, and really mostly just a lurker here... What do you mostly play: solo, group, CW? Are you looking for a min/max type of mech or just...
