hope the patch date isn't tomorrow (some of you may want to kill me now)

Best case scenario for us Hawken players:  

Patch comes out on Tuesday.  If you're still swimming, you won't be able to experience it.  SO HA!

All things aside, that place looks nice.  Seems like fun, have a good time!

Best case scenario... it's highly unlikely.

wow, what a cool story

God dammit, stop winning me over with your excellent promo videos.

If you guys have an eSports update planned for the future, I will love you forever. And buy lots of fancy mech parts.

Cool video, worth the wait. Also at 1:50 there's a limit/end to the pilot rank system ! That's achievable.

Dodging while in the air will only make mechs like scout or infil more overpowered at high levels with advanced players....regardless it will be fun to see how the people react to the "flying" mechs now that is possible to survive in a fight while hovering

[XBS_damage]

Finally a video from the actual devs in the actual hawken website. things looking good

Matchmaking will take pilot rank into account, so hopefully that issue won't pop up too often.

Another solution I hope they implement is simply giving new pilots a small pool of points right away and make obtaining more points from pilot rank happen less often. In addition, give new players a set of those "Basic" internals. I think these will segregate players less as well.

Pilot rank may just reflect how long you've played rather than skill; at least it does for me.  There are many players who just took up the game who're kicking my level 25's shiny metalass in DM.  They haven't said that MMR is going away so I'm hopeful the system will be tweaked or improved.

¿For people than have all the mech maxed at 25, they will start with certain pilot and mech rank_ or all of us we will be forced for play again from scratch for make pilot and mech rank

ZC answered this in another thread.  https://community.pl...240#entry333733

So, yeah, we should be full pilot rank (30), and all mechs you own currently should be level 5.  Also, you'll have a duplicate of each mech in the garage with no rank and zero XP on it and that includes a new vanguard C class.

Not quite.

Mech progression will be percentage converted; a lvl25 mech (100%) will be fully levelled for the new patch. etc.

Pilot progression will be calculated based on overall XP gained. As far as i know, we don't have the figures needed for each rank of pilot progression. It could be that it requires several million XP just to reach rank 2, or you could be max level before you get your second mech.

So on September 2.we'll only get patchnotes, not the real patch_ Hope that patchnotes will contain real info, detailed descriptions and numbers, not the things we are hearing over and over again.

[dokus]

why do you have to ruin the interface ___ you think that's the problem and everyone wants that_ New hub _ i mean come on, im happy with having to see hp number written in mech itself, it brings out more realistic enviroment and joy, like you're really sitting in your own mech. And now you are implementing stupid bar thats fixed and flowing on screen like on some cheap fps pc game_ it's lame, and i probably don't speak on behalf of everyone when i fuzzy bunny about this, but please let us who likes the old hub choose so in options.

I have the feeling that really soon we will have the chance to spend some MC on HUD customization (healt bar, reticles and target icons).

If ADH wants to make some real money it's better they think about it

[Wasabi_Wei]

Hey dokus (and LOTS of other folks) - See that visor on your profile pic_ Well, fancy ones like that project crucial data right onto the glass in front of the pilot's eyes. True story. That way they don't die while craning their neck to spot a bogey at 5 o'clock etc. The old style is comic-book cool but hardly realistic unless these mechs have been made from 1950's-era parts. I support the option of being able to select either one, but that is probably not feasible right now.

that's also the option yes.
i just wish they do things more openly that will leave players to choose to their own likings, not the "one" universal thing they believe it's right, there is no such thing, people are different.
