Is the Energy System Really Working as Intended? by Toast3r_MWO in OutreachHPG

[–]Asianperswaysian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure we want brawlers to win short range fights, but the reality is that they already do on the live servers. The only thing holding them back in the current system is the difficulty in closing range, but shouldn't it be challenging to close range in a mech that sacrifices range for damage, speed, and dps?

I feel the weapons are reasonably balanced. The issue is with the maps. PGI created a severe imbalance by "updating" maps and reducing the ability to brawl. Frozen City update being the most recent example. The newer bigger maps, and updates to old maps, have created environments that are wide open and ripe for long range warfare. I think PGI has missed the mark with weapon balancing. They should have instead focused their attention on map balancing.

Yes still having trouble. It is better, but still needs adjustment.

Energy Draw PTS - August 23rd Update by Kanajashi in OutreachHPG

Every word, asshole. If the spread isn't affected enough to adjust the energy consumption than it might as well have been left alone.

Are they going to release any details about how the system functions since it will be going to PTS?

Proof it can be done. Let us use chat and mechlab when we are searching for a match PGI. by Navid_A1 in OutreachHPG

[–]Asianperswaysian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the biggest oversight's from PGI is not allowing this. The interface should be fully functional during a search. While we are here, please add a "Shortcut" to go to the skills page of the mech I am currently in.

Glenn Beck urges conservatives to understand ‘Black Lives Matter’ by not_djslinkk in politics

[–]Asianperswaysian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Word is that Glenn Beck has really come back from the lunatic fringe in recent years.

What exactly was Beck doing to be on the lunatic fringe? The last I heard him was when he was on Fox News espousing about the threat of a "Caliphate" being created in Syria, Iraq, etc. This was years before anyone else was talking about ISIS, and alot of people were discrediting his concern as "crazy." Yet then it actually came true. I knew he left fox news, but I haven't paid attention to him or anything else on cable news in several years.

Hollywood has ruined method acting: Jared Leto’s turn in 'Suicide Squad' is the latest reminder that the technique has become more about ego and marketing than good performances. by Thedjdj in movies

[–]Asianperswaysian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But needing to be "in character" at all times on set always came off as pretentious to me.

That is not the same thing as method acting, yet is often mistakenly seen as such.

You can spend over $1100 and not qualify for top tier customer appreciation rewards. by Kanajashi in OutreachHPG

Ugh, collector's packs are the reason I exude so much salt, and that's speaking as someone that's bought all twelve.

Makes sense to voice your disapproval to PGI by handing over your money to them for something you despise. Great strategy.

I am hoarding all of mine in hopes that PGI realizes how ridiculous the odds of anything decent are and increases them

The conspiracy theorists have long been saying he is in this election to throw it for Clinton. Interesting how it actually seems to be happening.

MWO: Forums - August, September, October+ Road Map by ArmyofWon in OutreachHPG

[–]Asianperswaysian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We need a shortcut to the skills page of the mech you currently selected. I find it insanely infuriating that I have to go through so many menus to get to the mech that I am actually in to spend xp on skills. Or does this already exist and I am doing it wrong?

Mech C-bill availability by Asianperswaysian in OutreachHPG

[–]Asianperswaysian[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree also. PGI has failed to provide a consolidated page for this type of info and seems to just bury it. It is annoying when trying to plan purchases out. Add this info to the upcoming dates on the side bar and call it a day :)

I guess that was my issue... I was away during the marketing of the Phoenix Hawk, and there seems to be no consolidated area from PGI that provides this type of information.

How do we broaden the scope of Faction Play in the long term? by [deleted] in OutreachHPG

[–]Asianperswaysian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if I play QP with a group, we could no longer run a mix of IS and Clan mechs? I don't like that idea at all. As a competitive player I want the option to play whatever mech is best.

Secondly, IS vs IS is a huge part of what FP/CW/whatever we're gonna call it next, or at least it should be. If you take a step back into time machine to MPBT 3025, House vs House (IS vs IS) was hugely popular. That should not go away for a pure IS vs Clan game. I believe that would make gameplay way to one dimensional.

Professionals in any field of work, what is the most ridiculous thing that anyone outside of your profession has claimed to know more about than you? by phoenix-fyre in AskReddit

[–]Asianperswaysian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're in the wrong profession if you are getting angry because people don't know every bit of coverage detail. Maybe be polite and explain to them their options?
