Watch us live


Good news for our Eastern followers: since the UK scrims have ended, we start a bit earlier, shortly after the Fight Club. Our special guest will be no less than [HWK]ZamboniChaos, the community manager of HAWKEN! We will talk about the free to play Steam release and continue our community spotlight segment. And just when you thought we can no longer mumble about HAWKEN, we will take a short break and come back to stream as we play. So grab a hot drink of your choice and do not forget to stay with us and watch the Aftershow.

I'm an European and I watch the Cockpit. No one has ever complained about that.

I have this feeling that it'll work the other way around as well, no worries. :-p

One of them is the most handsome bastard out there, who goes by the name of Aregon Houruck.

He is such a good teamplayer and a great friend of mine who is so unusual (he got an adopted homosexual penguin) and fascinating with his personality. I am also really thankful to him, as he pretty much invited me into BSB.

Whenever I talk to him I feel happy (NOHOMO), and I simply love that man (NOHOMO).

But that is only one of many people I admire.[/font]

You are now officially banned from all events BSB got any connections to.

Congratulations, now go and f##k yourself.

It can be difficult to keep track of chat during the show so if you could say what you want say/discuss then we can bring it up during.

One thing to bear in mind is that Zamboni is an intermediary, that is literally what his role is as a community manager. He sits between us and the devs and doesn't make decisions on what goes into the game. He presents what the community brings up and the final say lies with the Devs. He then has the (sometimes unfortunate) task of presenting the end result to the community.
As such, he may not be able to respond to some of the things that people want to ask.

But as a part of the dev team, he knows some reasons for decisions we don't like (I hope) and all I want are answers.

So if you want stuff to discuss, please take some of these:

- Why don't we have the possibillity to select the old HUD?
- Why did they remove recoil and anti accuracy mechanics?
- Why did they removed dodge fuel consumption?
- when will the next update be announced?

While he may be part of the team, it is in his best interest to actually keep his job. So sadly he will simply be unable to talk about some things.

Since there are a lot of discussions about the HC gain latetely: What's your opinion on the current HC gain and how to improve it?


More or less a question for ZC (if he's able to answer it):
Is the auto team balancing (not matchmaking!) logic considered to be final or will it be changed in the future? (Especially regarding the handling of parties, switching of players in a party and removing players who volunteer from their party)

The old HUD caused significant performance issues, removing it improved gameplay performance for most users by a noticeable amount. The old HUD is tied to scripting that no longer functions so replicating it with the new HUD system is a time sink better spent on other things. The health and fuel no longer in the cockpit was a creative decision made by the creative director, Khang Le. This decision was made primarily for gameplay reasons such as reducing player fatigue.

Dodge fuel consumption was changed for the pace of gameplay and was to remove what was determined to a frustrating game mechanic. That's the short of it but the more detailed reasons have been posted in the past.

What's coming in the next update will be discussed in the next couple of weeks. It is intended for a release this month.

But why you guys do not offer any option to customize the cockpit? Because what's even more frustrating is this stuck fuel and health bar, I want atleast MOVE it.

Don't get me wrong, I love(ed) Hawken and I still believe in it but please offer more customizations in ANY section (weapons, HUD, mechs etc.)

As far as the cockpit, we plan to have more options in this coming patch, just not an offset option yet for fuel or health. What kind of customization for weapons and mechs are you referring to?
