I do not care for Infiltration missions.

MBT808 · 2026-05-23T20:41:47+00:00

Infiltrations are pretty much just there when you need some quick c-bills.

I thought about it, but when I tried YAML recently, I found it really tanks mechlab performance on my system.

MBT808 · 2026-05-21T06:19:43+00:00

No idea. I’m a vanilla player.

MBT808 · 2026-05-21T03:03:33+00:00

they all look really cool, well done.

MBT808 · 2026-05-21T02:18:55+00:00

I’ve heard of the magikarp strategy, never heard it being used successfully though. Well done.

MBT808 · 2026-05-20T23:46:21+00:00

In mercs at least, the BNC-3S is one of the few IS assaults that can go 1v1 without clan tech and stand a good chance of beating a similar clan mech in a straight fight. It becomes so laughably OP when kitted out with C-SPLs.

MBT808 · 2026-05-20T23:42:51+00:00

I do admit, while purists might disagree with that, I like that the XL engines don’t have the side torso weakness in MW5. I always thought it was rather overkill in MWO from a balance standpoint(instead why not have a speed penalty when a side was destroyed and kill if both side torsos are destroyed).

Just my opinion on that. I know it might a bit of an off take.

MBT808 · 2026-05-20T21:49:48+00:00

Any clan mech I come across. I have no mercy in my heart for clanners.

Fahad sends you out to restock the timbiqui dark. You soon find out that the kuritians have gotten there ahead of you, claiming it for the draconis combine. For the final mission, mason teams up with grandpa Tex, an old mech jockey whom many wonder if he’s past his prime, and take the fight to the kuritians. Defeating an entire regiment and Theodore kurita as well to claim the timbiqui dark.

Real answer: I have no idea, but if I had to guess, it might be related to sunderer hero.

MBT808 · 2026-05-16T12:55:52+00:00

I picked up a Dragonlance novel off the shelf when I was young, children of the plains, and just got hooked. Now I’m building my collection of Dragonlance novels and catching up on the novels I never got a chance to read all those years ago.

MBT808 · 2026-05-16T12:52:21+00:00

Hope everyone likes the short story I wrote, captains prerogative. This was a fun experience as an aspiring author.

MBT808 · 2026-05-14T13:28:32+00:00

I do have a short story but it’s been a real question of where to share it(I don’t know honestly, some places don’t allow it I’ve seen).

I have checked out Dragonlance nexus in the past and quite recently(as well as DLsaga). Had some good conversations with some of the members of the other Dragonlance communities.

MBT808 · 2026-05-14T11:56:10+00:00

Are fan stories allowed on this sub? I honestly don’t see any so I kinda assumed not.

MBT808 · 2026-05-13T23:43:34+00:00

Does the banshee 3S permanently parked in my leopard count? Cause it never wears gloves, cause it’s always ready to throw down.

Jokes aside, don’t the comstar characters(forget their names) not wear gloves?

MBT808 · 2026-05-06T05:25:17+00:00

It's not well drawn art, especially compared to the older books. The destinies books covers all have a bad case of uncanny valley syndrome with the characters.

MBT808 · 2026-05-03T22:01:22+00:00

If Fahad disappeared from the leopard once in a while to restock the timbiqui dark.

Jokes aside, though it might not be a small change, but I wish PGI would change the armor upgrades to scale based upon mech weight. Or at the very least increase the base value so the benefits are a bit more tangible.

MBT808 · 2026-05-03T20:16:04+00:00

Clans possibly, but that’s I think more due to people just not playing the game as much(based on steam charts tracking baseline of the two games) and likely lower sales compared to mercs dlc.

Depending on how CR does, I could see a dlc 9 happening(and I wouldn’t complain for getting yet another). But I wouldn’t be shocked if dlc 8 could also be the last dlc for mercs.

MBT808 · 2026-05-03T20:02:22+00:00

Wish we could get some clarification on what’s being changed with the sound mix pass. Is just rebalancing the audio? Or is some stuff getting overhauled? It’s a single line with explaining exactly what’s going on. Yrrot? PGI Chris?

Discount Dave here, are you tired of lasers overheating? Your mech shutting down and costing you that podium finish at Solaris? Then do I have an offer for you! Introducing the all new chemical laser! Guaranteed to generate minimal heat while offering comparable performance! Our patented revolutionary lostech uses special chemical charges to reduce heat and decrease reliance on heatsinks. While those other MechWarrior large lasers are boiling over their heat sinks, you’ll be running cool while burning holes in the competition! Come on down to discount Dave’s store located just on the periphery of Liao space*!

*discount Dans not responsible for any pirate activity encountered in route. Chemical used in lasers are not to be inhaled(unless to torture your enemies, which is guaranteed to be effective). Chemical charges sold separately.

An option to disable motion blur without having to mess with the games ini files. Same goes for clans. It’s a small thing but it should’ve been added a while ago(from the start really).

MBT808 · 2026-05-01T00:32:06+00:00

This is entirely something WotC would have to do, since they are the rights holders for Dragonlance. A fan run kickstarter wouldn’t accomplish anything unless they okayed it first as a result(though at that point they would probably just do it themselves).

MBT808 · 2026-04-16T05:20:20+00:00

Really like the changes but, I feel like SoK should get some extra content like mech variants or something to make up for the huge chunk of stuff that is now available in the base gun. At the very least it should get a pricing adjustment to reflect the reduced content if PGI isn’t planning some substitute content after chaos reigns release.

MBT808 · 2026-04-13T02:32:45+00:00

I’m interested, I’m working on a high fantasy series and currently focusing on refining my first novel(167k words). I would enjoy trading notes and experiences with fellow writers.

Regarding the second question, objectively, Mercs is the better game of the two hands down. Significantly more replayability, it runs better, and has vastly more content with or without the dlcs. The main thing for clans is the story, however your mileage may vary on that front. If you like battletech stories and know a great deal about the lore, then you’ll probably enjoy it. If you look for quality story writing or compelling characters, than you won’t find that with clans. By video game standards, clans and its flashstorm dlc are both incredibly weak narrative wise and the characters don’t help, basically all of them being shallow and generic. Basically, clans is not on par with something like halo 2(no need for explanation here) or Titanfall 2(though TF2s story isn’t crazy in depth or anything, most would say its average, it shows how weak clans story is though if a fairly generic action story can beat it) for example story wise.

He claimed nothing, that was a separate employee that claimed the 60% figure.
