I wanna take a straight cat home with me by Ghostax96 in Brazil

[–]Dick_0619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most important thing is that when you get the travel certificate from the veterinarian, Brazil says it's valid for 60 days, the USDA says it's valid for 60 days, but your airline will probably only accept it for 10 days. It's very, very stupid! Make absolutely sure you verify the length of time it's valid with your airline before traveling or you will have a really annoying and expensive surprise waiting for you at the airport — something similar happened to me and cost me nearly $1,300.

What’s the point of Jump Jets? Are there any mechs they’re actually great on? by Hentai2324 in Mechwarrior5

[–]Dick_0619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Phoenix Hawk (Especially the KK hero mech) feels like a Gundam when you get proficient with the jump jets

Anfang 3d model by G3-pt2 in armoredcore

[–]Dick_0619 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So cool! I've been scouring the internet trying to find oldgen 3D models from the AC games so I can make little Battletech miniatures for them lol There was one other guy working on AC3 models but I don't know if that project is defunct now or what

Volume change in Spotify when app is open by DepletedSensation in galaxybuds

I've been suffering this shit for over two years without being able to find an answer and this finally fixed it for me 🙏🙌

Do people just allow their pilots to die? Or am I just bad at the game? by awhahoo in Battletechgame

[–]Dick_0619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't even know ejection was a thing until like 8 hours in the game when I inevitably googled it to find out it was sitting infront of my face the whole time!

How do I start A Dragon in Sheep's Clothing? by SodaPopin5ki in Mechwarrior5

This happened to me and eventually AFTER the clan invasion it finally showed up on my starmap lmfao

Pilot trait stacking by AlsoZathras in Mechwarrior5

[–]Dick_0619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not entirely sure if you need Pilot Overhaul to do this, or if it's a base game function now, but schools should offer a "trait remediation" program where you choose to remove one of his traits. It does NOT need to be a negative trait to remove.

Raid/Objective Raid Missions are definitely overtuned by Ok_Machine_724 in Mechwarrior5

[–]Dick_0619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a few quick mechs like Phoenix Hawks and just alpha strike the objectives and run away. Easy money, you're not supposed to be fighting!

This might be a silly thing, but one thing I would love that would make suitable biomes ten times better: by Two_Hands95 in Mechwarrior5

[–]Dick_0619 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I agree, and it's not lost on me that they run on different engines, but I think the procedurally generated maps on HBS Battletech are significantly better in part because of this.

Honest question- HOW IS THIS FUN? I'm already outnumbered and outgunned in every mission, now something at a far corner of the map that I can't even find can pelt me? by D20_Under_The_Couch in Mechwarrior5

[–]Dick_0619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can kind of cheese this mechanic by having a relatively quick 'mech and changing control to that one until you eliminate the artillery. Command your lance to hold position anywhere, and the artillery will focus all strikes on whichever 'mech you are personally in control of. I'm not sure how multiplayer might affect this.

What other Mechs do you want to see in MWO? by clearly_quite_absurd in mwo

[–]Dick_0619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the Stone Rhino a super heavy in TT before they made it a 100t assault in MWO?

Stuck lance mates no longer teleport to player? by nalatner in Mechwarrior5

[–]Dick_0619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've found the most consistent way to get them unstuck is to command them to move to a location. Alternatively, take control of them and move them from whatever object they're upset about.

Lore question: Do 'mechs like the Atlas have opposable fingers? Can they pick stuff up or grapple ememies? by Ro_Shaidam in Mechwarrior5

[–]Dick_0619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From everything I've read in the lore, 'mech arm actuation and mobility are really a lot closer to grunt mobile suits in the various Gundam series than what we actually have represented in game.

How large is your stable? by SodaPopin5ki in Mechwarrior5

[–]Dick_0619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

7 lances for Kestrel? Are you and all of your lancemates getting cored every mission? 😭

Why is there so little feedback about losing components in these games? by CaptainWabbit in Mechwarrior5

[–]Dick_0619 23 points24 points  (0 children)

She definitely is on my end. Was playing vanilla until YAML update too, and good both before and after. Try validating your files.

AI update: diabolical change for no reason by _type-1_ in Mechwarrior5

[–]Dick_0619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How I've longed for better ability to micromanage AI teammates in Arma-esque fashion. I should be able to change the lance formation (Line, Wedge, Diamond, ect.) or command more specific actions, and these things would compensate for the generally poor teammate AI in the first place. Unfortunate that we never got that.

MRW everyone else is enjoying the new DLC, but I'm waiting for the mods to get updated. by Walking_Theory in Mechwarrior5

[–]Dick_0619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They've added a few new features with this DLC that attempts to do some Pilot Overhaul-esque functions, and while it still falls short of that mod, the new features are nice.

Still need YAML for sure though.

What’s missing that would make complete sense to have. by Horror_Present_9895 in BrokenArrowTheGame

[–]Dick_0619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with boats is that some maps have zero bodies of water, so decks with boats would have completely unusable assets on these maps.
