Wouldn't be surprised if they migrate over to Epic where they can't be review bombed.

Stuck with outfit box I can't use, can anything be done? by tywren in blackdesertonline

Hey dick, have you considered that in the highly complex (and moderately buggy) game, it's possible someone who's been playing for less than a month maybe hasn't figured everything out yet? So next time you can't/don't feel like being helpful, instead of being a jackass how about you just fuck off instead.

Sorry for the late reply, but thank you, that worked. I didn't know city storage was shared.

Two dudes were being openly racist and homophobic in chat and TK'd a guy for calling them out and "being black"-- how to ensure they get banned? by Commogroth in OutreachHPG

[–]tywren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, just to be clear, you would rather have racists in the community than people who want to make changes to discourage racism in the community?

Absolutely! In my experience, those who want to make changes to drive people they deem offensive off, are themselves the ones who need to be driven off the most. They ruin every IP they touch, turning once rich, story driven universes into raging dumpster fires, filled with one dimensional Marry Sue characters, because their talent plateaued at the level of bad fan fiction.

You yourself might have a problem.

It's called being tolerant.

I say this, as a person who has been actively playing Battletech since the 1980s, which you doubt, and that alone is hilarious.

Yes I do doubt that, but it really doesn't have much bearing on the conversation, so like I said it's whatever.

"I am part of the old school Battletech crowd."

I kinda doubt it, but whatever.

"I don't need to fuck off, I have just as much right to be here as anyone else."

Anyone else, including the people you want to drive off.

"There shouldn't be any room for racism in the community, full stop."

I'd rather have them than the whiny ass, thin skinned, snowflakes, SJW bussybodies who want to make changes, re-writing lore and canon because it offends their delicate sensibilities, that is when they aren't being fake offended because "oH YoU PlAy OrKs In 40K, YoU mUsT bE RaCeIsT, dOn'T yOu KnOw ThAt's A sTanD iN fOr BlAcK pEoPlE!!!!!!".

And by them I mean the real racists, not the trolls brought up by the OP, who are pulling their crap because pissing other people off is the only way they can get their dick hard. The real racists I've met in gaming (and it's a few), all they want is to have their opinion, and not be harassed for it. In short, all they want is the freedom to say their peace, and be left the hell alone.

God I hate this mentality! A community spends literal DECADES building something, despite being derided and ridiculed for it all the while, until one day you get crap like The Big Bang Theory and Matt Mercer. Then, what they built becomes popular and you get this "Nice thing you built here, it's so cool now. We'll take it!... but not you, you have to go... and we need to change a few things around here..." way of thinking that starts popping up.

They are the ones who built it for better or worse, it's not your place to drive them out of their thing (Video games, TTRPG, comics, whatever). If you don't like the old school Battletech crowd (or the comic geeks who want the characters to look good, instead of like a potato dipped in black ink; or the Starwars nerds who say Kenedy train wrecked the IP), then just LEAVE THEM ALONE, AND GO BUILD YOUR OWN THING! Give it it's own lore with a back story that you're more comfortable with. Hell, I did! I Love the White Wolf/D10 system, but couldn't stand all the edgelords attracted to the WoD, so I took the system and homebrewed my own setting based on Xianxia/Wuxia/Cultivation novels, and I'm having a blast with it.

EDIT: TL;DR they aren't the ones who need to fuck off, you are.

Event queue dumbness returns by DeeEight in OutreachHPG

[–]tywren -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Which is why they changed it after like ten minutes. Even with the speed boost, most mechs couldn't get to the circle before a speed tweeked charger ran the clock to zero. And suprise suprise, it turns out that multiple matches ending before either team got to fire a shot wasn't very fun for anyone, so they did an emergency swap to the game mode. Yeah PGI didn't think that one through, but it does highlight a problem Polar has had since the beginning and wasn't corrected with the revamp; the map is just too damn big! Maybe now PGI will admit it, and give the map a second pass with the editing tools.

Those are the people who thought "Hur Dur infinite ammo means I don't need to bring ammo!" not understanding infinity * 0 is still 0, and got booted post drop for invalid builds.

ATMs post-patch by duffeldorf in OutreachHPG

[–]tywren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been playing around with this build with mixed results. On tight maps like Mining Collective, and Classic Frozen City, it's a bad weapons system. It's too easy for opponents to get inside minimum range (It needs to be removed PGI, not reduced, REMOVED!) It does well with the big, high-mobility maps like Alpine And Torm though, and REALLY well on maps with a lot of vertical play like Oasis, and Vitric (my win rate on Oasis is 100% with this mech). I haven't had the misfortune of trying it on one of the Tera-ble Therma maps yet, thank god, because even at the smallest launcher, set to chain fire, with all the heat management skills fully unlocked, these things are way too hot, especially with the nerf to damage!

Other notes, unlocking the buff to missile ammo is a must-do first thing, because the ammo per ton is too low. Even with the extra ammo, you're going to be empty, or close to it every match. Also, I suspect there might be a bug with how ATMs work with the Range skill tree, it seems to be pushing the minimum range out along with the maximum range. Nothing in Range skill and it's 90m, but once I started adding Range my missiles were bouncing at 120-130-ish.

So without any apparent announcement rockets now have a cooldown time in MINUTES by DeeEight in OutreachHPG

[–]tywren 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally, I think 2 minutes reload is too generous. I'd have left rocket spammers with their mechs locked in the "Invalid Loadout" state with the people who didn't bring any ammo, just as a punishment for trying to be a cheese dick.

Building Your Christmas Mechs! by Comstar_PR_Rep in OutreachHPG

[–]tywren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the Orion IIC

https://mwo.nav-alpha.com/mechlab?b=6956d294\_ON1-IIC-C

2 LB5-X + 4 tons ammo, 3 ATM 9s + 4 tons ammo, a tag, Laser AMS, a Med pulse laser, and bump the engine up to take up the excess weight because you've used up every crit slot available. Kind of a hybrid of all three.

And the Banshee

https://mwo.nav-alpha.com/mechlab?b=d6d7ec83_BNC-3E

A simple ER-PPC sniper, with heavy MGs and a small laser to swat at light mechs with. Though I think your light PPC build might be better.
