    The patch notes have been released! News article here:

    What is your most/least favourite thing from the patch?

    I am personally very surprised by the Ghost Heat link for Gauss Rifles and PPC! The meta builds have been targeted specifically for a nerf (and you could even make it lore friendly, that the magnetic coils of the Gauss Rifle interfere with PPCs). Definitely weirded out by that one, as I fear they may lose many competitive players. But also happy for more variety in builds.

    I'm afraid that if you are a competitive player in this game, you are to far gone...

    but as for the patch, Light Fusion Engines. The Best.

  3. A couple eyebrow raises there:

    Inner Sphere ER PPC
    • Velocity increased to 1900 (from 1300).

    Almost a 50% increase... So much for incremental balance changes.

    Changes to Enhanced Coolshot
    Boost provided from Enhanced Coolshot Nodes has been reduced to 15% per Node (down from 25%).
    Enhanced Coolshot Design Notes: With the original Enhanced Coolshot providing a bit too much in the realm of benefit when it came down to cost-benefit ratio, this change aims to bring the skill investment a bit more in line with the node count cost needed to max out Coolshot-based skills.

    So coolshot is performing too well, but double air strike did not get touched?

    More nerfs for lasers - really feels like they are trying hard to make the new lasers look attractive.


    Yay, finally!
    • Clan and IS UAC Weaponry: Fixed an issue where weapon jams could occur when holding down the fire button.

    Completely read over the ERPPC velocity change. I guess it gives more incentive to equip now though, paying extra heat for more velocity.
