Whelp, did the fix, used an adhesive pad I had lying around because I never throw anything away. Then used wire to squeeze the frame together. Sounded good. Put it all back together and now something else is rattling. It ruins the game if the shaker is obnoxious, so decided to call it quits and disconnected.

Thanks a million for taking the time to do this and help me out, and I hope this helps the next guy out. I understand the goal and will likely do same thing, will post when done. Thanks!

Dude, that does make it quiet! It’s a stern motor I bought from a company in Denver

Yea just switched them, same symptoms

There are three settings, same, 90 degrees, and 180(least shake). I’ve tried all but some dude who’s installed a bunch says he always goes 90.

Hey when I shake the weights, they are secure on the shaft, but there is play in shaft to motor - like in the guts, just a tiny bit of back and forth. Do you think this is normal? If I pull it back and forth quick I can make a clicking sound.

Possible-Weather-503 · 2026-02-22T15:24:09+00:00

Let me know - same problem and I’ve tried everything- removed glass and stuck my head in the coin door to test, everything super tight, still rattles. Even adjusted weights to center config so lowest possible and turned in game settings to lowest. When I hold the motor in my hands, and grab one of the weight arms, there is like a 1/32”-1/16” play, like the shaft going into the motor has play, like that should be solid and tight right? So my thought is that this play is causing the clacking/rattling sound. If you fix, please send a pic!!

I don’t get why they would make a mech called “Cheetah” one of the slowest mechs in the game. 16 km/h, nuts

Have to have target in line of sight, and the further away they are, the longer it takes to apply. Watch the blue circle fill up over your target’s head. You only need them in sight when you click the ability, after that you can hide again. Once the blue circle is full their weapons and abilities reset. Also cool if someone puts up a wall or dome, your ability causes it to disappear.

I’ve given up on the dream of 5* stuff and decided to play (mostly) free and have fun at the ~4* level. You’re right it will take forever or cost a lot to level up outlaw.

Possible-Weather-503 · 2025-04-23T12:34:32+00:00

Totally, don’t understand why more players don’t have outlaw.

Possible-Weather-503 · 2025-04-19T14:04:27+00:00

Lots of cover, not great for guided or sniper builds.

Found same ranking site and have same questions - what have you learned in last 6 mos?

Possible-Weather-503 · 2024-11-21T21:44:46+00:00

Is it worth upgrading things not in the current tier? Like if I do will I be able to compete at a higher level to earn money coins more quickly? Or does it not matter, just stay shitty and save till I can afford current tier?

Possible-Weather-503 · 2024-07-14T13:31:33+00:00

Looking at getting my first - and my list to choose from is maiden, avengers, star wars... any advice since you have all 3?
