I think this is going to be a lot of fun!

I really enjoyed those 2v2 we did with Hrono and Onebullit. I think we might need some technician duo duels (all technician matches are so crazy).

I plan to do an All-Tech TDM party on a full server.

Hey, I mentioned that possibility acouple of times in the game last week. It's an interesting variant, indeed. Go for it!

So, about the rules.. People, who don't agree with EOC and SS bans - accept that as a challenge and try to play out of your comfort zone at least for once. That will show how much of a good player you are.

Why should one play out of his comfort zone_ They just won't play at all.

I voted for all 4.
The bans were perfetly fine Houruck, it's human nature to complain.

Shields must be banned for sure!

Actually, why can't Adhesive just make the shield undeployable (on friend (or foe))
You can only drop it on the ground and thats it.  This would solve alot of problems with the shield imo.

Well, the choice is up to you cause the rules are set.

I think the the shield attachment is a nice (and fun) feature, they should definitely keep it. The problem is with the vast amount of damage the shields can take (now that it blocks splash damage) and of course there is the infamous invisishield glitch.

I confess: I actually voted only on the Shield and Countermeasure.

I'd play out of my comfort zone.

There have been days where I just played whatever mech someone requested every match, or played other mechs than I'd like to so that some guy in the enemy team stops complaining (the guy(s) still kept on complaining about everything, well, at least I tried).

Heck, I've almost stopped playing Flak Scout due to a request of some guy quite some time ago, even tho I like playing it the most.

I bet there are other players out there who'd do the same.

Nooooo! - Why would you say that - you know how much I love sticking shields to peeps - I'm even thinking about doing an Infiltrator video, where I stealh up and "Alpha Shield" enemy team members, before running off. On that note - does anyone know of a free video editer - a simple one, I'm a novice....

[Houruck]

That would be hilarious DaPheel!

Learn Sony Vegas - there's really not much point in using anything else. You can find it on torrents.

I use Adobe Premiere Pro 5.
The VLC project started to work on an open source and free professional video editing software but it is really early in develompment and it is buggy as hell. It crashed every time I tried to use it when they first announced it. The current version might worth a try.

Houruck why you desided to ban EOC_ in that case i offer to ban all rifles, flaks and heat cannon, they all got biger dps and lower heat rate.

[Deadmen_Tim]

Poll is a bit incorrect.

I see proper poll like that:
1. Ban shield
2. Ban EOC
3. Ban CM
4. Ban SS
5. Do not ban shield
6. Do not ban EOC
7. Do not ban CM
8. Do not ban SS

That was my idea. Cause alpha strike.

Because a lot of people asked for it. I was not among them as I already stated.

You are right.

Edit: But this way you can vote both to ban and allow something.
So I separated them to different questions.

A 300 HP Shield that can take 3 GL shots, 2 charged EOC rounds and a Detonator.

Seems legit.

[angryhampster]

the only major threat is the shield.

just take out the shield and detonator, so there isn't any of those luck things..

[angryhampster]

for those who want to play hawken, and be proud of themselves when having good games...

for offensive, get

emp
turret
H.E. charge


for defensive
anything besides the shield.  

get the repair charge
