I'd be better if it was some sort of vehicle, like a mobile mech bay/base, or a big long tom SPG you have to escort.

Escorting an atlas... with another atlas just seems silly.

Well the patch landed today. I like the new unified front for faction play, it's pretty quick to hop in a game now. I don't think I'm a huge fan of the new quick play game mode though, it can be over pretty quickly if the attackers focus on the VIP Atlas.

The new Maurauder IIc seems pretty good, I'll probably pick one up when they are available for C-Bills. It's too bad that it takes a few months for that to happen though.

My centurion must have the perfect ammo balance.  Two matches where I run out of ammo exactly when there's only one weak enemy left that my team mops up.

I quite like the Centurions, I have two that I have gotten for free and they seem to be able to brawl pretty well.

So I outfitted a hunchback with three machineguns in the hunch, and a large laser on both arms, as a joke build.  Managed to get multiple KMDDs.  What is this.

There's a sale for lunar/chinese new year, till feb. 1st

All mechs with "chicken legs" are about 30% off in the currency of your choosing, either MC or C-bill.  Assorted cockpit items and paint colors are on sale as well.

I'm thinking of grabbing the PPC variant cicada myself.

I haven't been playing in a while but I look forward to the upcoming changes. The new skill system should be interesting if they do it well. Hopefully it isn't another huge c-bill sink though. It's nice that you won't need three of a chassis now.

The advancement of the timeline will be interesting to see too. Some new tech might spice the game up a bit!

The skills are slated for late feb, if I recall.  I'm waiting patiently for it.

Oh, and recently the Bushwacker was released as well, for those that preordered it.

I like the structure, but from the sound of things it's going to be shit because you have to pay through the nose (real money even, I heard) every time you want to respec, which in practicality means that either you buy multiples of any chassis you want to use for more than one build, or you only ever play one build on each.

For only 10 million c-bills, you too can be a proud owner of a Huntsman mech.  Linebackers are also available for MC now, slightly late for the superbowl.

... and if you don't buy that Huntsman now, in two weeks you'll instead be able to master one of your currently already mastered 'mechs.

Apparently you were not supposed to be moving modules from one 'mech to another, woe to those who were...

Yah, it sounds like minecraft with content, you have obviously missed the point, people dont like content, they like different coloured blocks.
Seems to work fine with my copy. As soon as I loaded the human caravan came by and the world burst into fire.

At least skill respecs can be done for c-bills, and any respec'd XP isn't wasted.

I guess, although a full respec ends up costing as much as the 'mech did in the first place...
