lol must be gated to the post game if you got two on your very first mission. How do you like fitting one compared to a king crab?

No. Lostech is double heat sinks, ER energy weapons, pulse lasers, and the gauss rifle. Heat banks and exchangers are random lootable equipment like cockpit reinforcement or target tracking systems. Lostech is also very different from clan tech. Technological innovation in the Inner Sphere has...

No, a pit will still meekly follow after you just like the chihuahua. You underestimate how much abuse a dog will take without lashing out if it's coming from the master. That's probably a big part of people not realizing how dangerous their dog is (aside from them just being a dumbass wakandan...

Obviously, but it doesn't take much to raise a terrier wrong and end up with a dangerous animal, other 'dangerous' breeds you typically have to abuse or intentionally train for aggression to end up with a problem animal. No surprise that both the edgelords and the shitlib trying to mock the...

I mean, once a pit bull (or any of the larger terrier breeds) has been raised wrong it should just be put down. Trying to 'fix' them is such a colossal waste of time when there is no shortage of non-problem dogs that could be adopted out.

GoG but I don't want to install galaxy.

Weak. I remember reading somewhere there was talking of them patching in random lostech, but I haven't even figured out how to get the 1.01 update yet, i guess they still haven't released it as a standalone patch.

Have you seen any lostech like what the SLDF mechs were sporting, or is it just + versions of standard inner sphere gear

It's generally not worth moving up a weight class until you can jump up to somewhere in the middle of that weight class. I wouldn't use a dragon or a quickdraw, the thunderbolt and the orion were the only heavies I really used. Similarly wouldn't use a Battlemaster, Awesome, Victor, or Zeus...

you should be able to sensor lock the LRM turret and bring it down before it fires too many times. Pretty sure a shadowhawk is a better all around mech than the dragon, you gain almost nothing in return for losing that point of initiative.

wew shit is like night and day. thanks!

Figured out a nifty trick for saving LRM ammo, or being more efficient in the case of an LRM pilot with multishot. If you have the spare hardpoint, toss a plain old LRM 5 on your missile boats. When you need to knock down someone with a full stability meter, you just pop them with the LRM 5 and...

lol, not only did I finally run into an assault mech in a contract, it was a lance of 4 assault mechs. 2 highlanders, banshee, and an awesome (what a retarded name). Managed to find a small ridge to stand behind as they approached and picked them apart, got full salvage on everything except the...

All I have left is the final story mission, so I'll just start challenging the tougher contracts.

Light the shed on fire.

@Chysamere where'd you get that kingler and your other assault mechs, just from grinding contracts? Story missions haven't given me shit since the free highlander and the juiciest thing I've seen from random contracts so far was an orion.

When you make a called shot, the % it shows is your chance to hit the targeted spot on the mech, if you look closely it breaks down the odds of what body part you hit. Like if you have an 18% chance for a headshot, you're still about 70% likely to just hit center torso.

I started during the anniversary and knocked out all of the normals + some of the elites during half en, but I've been concentrating on renewals since they're limited and come with accessories + free 5* abilities and crafting mats. All of the normal renewals are done, and I'm about halfway...

stability generation needs to be nerfed but you shouldn't passively regain stability, should only clear your stability meter when you entrench.

Yeah I think that's what a lot of people don't understand. Some missions you are supposed to just nope the hell out of there when you see how much opposition is stacked up. Anyway I'd love to find the retarded faggot who decided the shuttle should randomly destroy mechs when it lands even...

Well just got my first major buttfucking from bullshit game mechanics. Enemy lance drops in, gets a free move towards me, then immediately goes into combat and gets to act again and they all focus on my zeus since it never got to act and they knock it down. The pilot ended up dying but I managed...

Stalled at 161, been slogging through as many renewals as I can stomach. kill me

TFW you're staring down a thunderbolt, battlemaster, and 7 supporting light mechs and start to sweat a little bit until Glitch one-shots the thunderbolt and the battlemaster on consecutive turns with the gauss rifle. Full battlemaster salvage ain't too shabby, although the hardpoints and spare...

I got Cid and Vanille USB in a single pull off FF13 which was $$$

ba-zing!

GL is such a fucking trash game, maybe the retardation of them rerunning the bahamut raid will finally be the incentive I needed to quit.

I was so happy to get full salvage off a catapult until I realized it's the K2 variant. Does this game even have the standard LRM catapult? I've seen the K2 three times now, have never seen the basic missile boat version.

I've temporarily kitted out the freebie highlander as a missile boat but with so much tonnage to work with and only two missile hardpoints it's not a very efficient loadout. Ended up filling the remaining tonnage with energy weapons for backup work but with that set of hardpoints a highlander is...

I got full salvage on the Zeus that attacks you in that mission by just repeatedly knocking it over lol

Shiny.

TBH I really don't see how they can incentivize small/med mech usage without it being stupid and arbitrary. Mechcommander 2 tried it for a couple missions and it didn't do much, the mission with minefields that wouldn't be set off by light mechs I just took big mechs, avoided the minefields, and...

Oh. Well I feel slightly better then. Kinda funny how rustled I was about missing out on that Dragon salvage the other day when I've gotten to the point where I can just buy them, which should be all the info I need to know they suck.

Came within spitting distance of full salvage on a cataphract, but i got too overzealous taking out the last leg and it overkilled into one of the side torsos. So now I've got two cataphract pieces that will rot for god knows how long until I run into another one lol

Dazzler > Colossus

iirc it was 10 times, you get 'captured' an extra time in Faith's territory.

Still woulda been my first heavy. Anyway feels like you should just always negotiate for full salvage unless you're desperate for money to upgrade the argo or in danger of not being able to make payroll. Guarantees you don't miss valuable mech salvage (like that catapult I missed) and the money...

So apparently this piece of shit game doesn't autosave during combat. Had a story mission going exceptionally well, had made it most of the way through the mission with no wounds and minimal mech damage and I think I managed full salvage on a dragon, which would have been my first heavy mech...

Figures that right after I make that comment about full salvage being pure luck, my first ever catapult shows up and I get full salvage on it. Except I negotiated the mission for pure c-bills. REEEEEEE Actually seems to happen every time I negotiate a c-bill contract, there ends up being great...
