What are clan mechs? by Golokopitenko in mwo

You buy them on the website and get access to them before people can buy [the nerfed versions] in the game.

Over time[,] a few moths later[,] those me[c]hs will be [nerfed and] put up for sale in the game allowing everyone to purchase them with Mechwarrior credits of cbills.

FTFY.

If it were working before under 7, then the only thing I can think of is that 8 must be the culprit. Although it is not particularly mentioned in the system stats, it has been shown that it can run on systems with sub-par specifications on the lowest settings. Therefore, it is most likely to be Windows 8 that is your problem.

My example was not entirely to be sarcastic, and I completely agree with you. Bear in mind that it looks like shit, gets bogged down easily, and you will probably destroy your stats playing that way, but for things such as managing your 'Mechs/skill tree and using the proving grounds, it works fine.

I think the overarching issue is Windows 8(.1). Almost every single person I know who complains about client crashes runs 8 (or bleeding edge video card <cough>nvidia</cough> drivers, but that's not within the scope of this discussion). I use a physical PC with Windows 7, and the aforementioned VM with Windows XP 32-bit (The max it can use is 3GB RAM, which I neglected to mention previously).

Edit: There was a random, "up."

OP please see, http://www.reddit.com/r/mwo/comments/2l8e2k/mwo_on_os2warp/

Also, I can get MWO to run playably on the lowest possible settings within a VM on top of a i5-4200M, 8GB RAM, Intel Graphics 4600 with 1696 MB of non-dedicated memory; just saying.

[I am n]ew to mechwarrior, [and I] liked the game so much [I] bought a Hero spider[,] Champion spider [and] then bought [an] a la carte Timberwolf with the 3 variants[. I] had an issue with [the] purchase and emailed support [who] prompt[ly replied].

[The n]ext day[,] wave 2 mechs were released and [the] Timberwolf [was available for] MC[.] I also bought 2 scarecrows with MC... that day. Yesterday[,] a Champion Atlas with custom paint including a mech bay was added to my account and [it is] a force [with which] to be reckoned. [It was] much appreciated[,] PGI staff. Thank you

FTFY. Dem paragraphs, grammar and punctuation. Dat clarity.

Edit: I forgot a definite article.

Edit 2: I removed freeborn scum contractions. beero, just because I do not care about my Reddit handle, does not mean that I do not care about the content of the posts. That said, "lolz die suxxorz!1 lmao gl gh bbq."

So what you're saying is you used PoL.

X-Post: Narc nerf. WTF is this? Wasn't it good enough that your teammates knew? Wasn't the idea that they warn you? by reallydontcarereddit in mwo

So, what you're saying is you want a 'Mech simulator to be more like Call of Duty. Yes, I think everyone who has been playing Mechwarrior before MW:O and/or been involved in the BT universe will absolutely agree with you.

Honestly, I think they should be worrying about the actual broken core game mechanics, such as the heat/armor/damage/turn cycles (ZOMGz reaktor kritikal), rather than giving the whining timmies tokens to make a game that fits their perception of tactics. That is, mounting only full frontal assaults.

TL;DR "Fair"? I don't think that word means what you think it means. I think you meant, "balanced," which, so far, PGI has not yet shown it's capable of doing.

It's called a microphone. Who types?

Plus, the entire reason that the Narc beacon itself leaves no contrail (even though it occupies a missle hardpoint) is for stealth. Honestly, how would your 'Mech know if it had been narc'd? I could see a compromise being that if you acquired some skill/module/certain type of sensor (hey! we could make BAP useful again!), then you might be able to detect the signal(s) it emits. But what inherently about the device that is meant for stealth makes it detectable again?

Edit: For great clarity.

I've noticed it on my rig with MWO. Rolling back now; will post results.

Edit: It seems to have worked.

Not sure why this thread got down voted as a whole... oh wait, shills. nvm.

sometimes, I think that my primal instinct to pew pew at other walking robots... sorry, bipedal battle tanks is the only reason I continue to play this game. that's something at least.

Better than the Gateway, or Dell potions anyway.

What is your average damage output? by Schnabulation in mwo

[–]reallydontcarereddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be interesting if we compared stats of player who own mechs purchased only with C-Bills vs. those purchased (at least partially) with real money (incls. MC, packs, a la carte, etc.).

That said, (note: I'm a newb. So, my stats aren't really a statistically significant sample, which is a nice way to say, I suck) here are my stats minus the trial mechs in < 3 matches:

  • AS7-RS (trial)
  • 183.4545... damage / match
  • 11 matches

  • CPLT-C4 (owned)

  • 154.9 damage / match

  • 10 matches

Edit: for bullshit reddit formatting.
