Scout gets big buff. Brawler still highest heat mech.

I'm used to, I'm no longer a hindrance.

But it will be more profitable for them {until everyone leaves due to the impossibility of the grind}

Man, I gotta call you on this, I've been playing since, like, 3 days after OB started.  Bought MC once ($5) to buy a skin for Fred, and a couple internals.  I can not believe that the HC grind is that bad, compared to WoT, League, DOTA, or any other F2P title with a dual currency system.

Since 12/15/12, I've leveled every mech in the game, twice, with full load outs, just because I like the game.  Grind is only perceived by those that have to have completion as a goal.  Just play the game, and progress naturally and it's not bad at all.  The match rewards since Ascension are generally higher iirc, and SA's were never a thing before what, the Tech patch_

They also give you, for free, every mech in the game, just for maxing out ranks now (and that costs what 6k HC max_), something they DID NOT do when I bought every. mech. in. the. game. twice.


Why not just give everyone max pilot level, tuning points, all the internals and weapons free, and have a member of the Adhesive staff give you a Backrub and happy ending after you download the game_  That'll get all the neck beards playing.

Good patch but still no love for Reaper disappoints me. How can they buff the Hawkings but not the Reaper version just because there is some other OP mech that wont be named here wielding it.

Sincerly

Sad Reaper Pilot.

Dear Sad Reaper Pilot,

Your medium/close range sustained fire weapon the Hawkins-RPR, is good, and remains good.  Plus with correct use of your ability (that everyone says is useless) you can achieve 100% accuracy for a significant period of time.  Add to that the AM-Sar, and Slug, and you are a much more well rounded mech overall than the Sharpshooter.  

Just say you want Powershot on Reaper, it clears up all this passive aggressive stuff nicely.

A plain 15% damage reduction for HF. Bravo for that interesting change and for making the bruiser a mediocre mech again, just where it belongs I suppose. At least I will be the only one in the match again.

I think the service awards bonus was the only thing going for it, I am all stoked about getting the achievements but now I don't see a point :/ well it was good while it lasted.

[JudgeGrey]

Well First a good job to the Devs for rolling this out so quickly and addressing issues players were experiencing and if nothing else making the attempt to try and balance the mechs,
The HC rewards removal from Service Awards is an unexpected twist though and one that I imagine has been coming for some time, I haven't got all my rewards yet as I haven't hit 8000 award points yet and while I understand that the Awards will still be there for me to chase after I always enjoyed the additional HC for my achievements (is was like the prize money ) I know that this will be most felt by the New players more then the long in the tooth players so I wonder what will you be doing to the economy to make it still viable for newer players to obtain their gear_ WIll there be a buff to the amount of HC that can be earned during matches_( this would make sense even if it were 10% or better in gains)
​ I am one that did love the pre-accession mode and exp. gains but have gotten used to the newer systems, This will not cause me to not play differently but it does change how I can explain to new players what they can do to catch up to me and get equipped rapidly as the mechanic has been removed.

[DaPheel]

Good to see the Brawler buff and the failsafe nerf!

[The_Silencer]

Just a piece of advice, guys ( you know who you are.. ) ...

Don't subestimate minor game updates because these can positively improve the game pretty much.

[dllyncher]

Removal of HC from service awards_  You HAWKEN may have just written your own tombstone.

[DFTR]

By the way, are they undoing the requirement to have 4 players ready to start DM server_  
It wasn't mentioned in this patch note, but then it wasn't mentioned when they did it the first time!

Yeah, I was wondering about this to.

Also the scout, those notes aren't really serious are they_ The health nurf was good. The run speed buff I can handle, but these two_

• Base heat generation decreased from 92% to 91%
  
• Base overheat recovery time decreased from 9.5 to 6.5 seconds

Come on now. Really_ The heat gen should have been INCREASED not decreased and at the very least a 8.5 recovery and not a giant leap to 6.5. Or just should have been left as they were.

Still happy about the balance hot fix though.

But the scout man. THE SCOUT!

I have a feeling people look at numbers, see a difference and go ape **** no matter how MINOR the numbers are.

THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS
