Greetings Pilots,

Incoming for the week of 2-18 through 2-25 are three new test drives for you to get your gloves on and take for a spin. Check out the information below and I look forward to seeing you on the battlefield!

Please note that when the test drives change, if you are mid-match you may receive an error stating that it is no longer available if you attempt to spawn in using last weeks test drive.   Should this happen, after the match ends, your new test drives will be waiting for you in the garage!

reading that Brawler ability text I can't help but think it's perhaps the most useless of all mech abilities
sigh-worthy stuff, as usual

"To the untrained eye this chart may indeed appear to demonstrate a steep and sustained downward trend; however, what you're actually seeing is the line being dragged down because of the strengthening gravitational pull of a player base that is actually increasing in density.  Rest assured, this is all going completely according to plan."

I'm surrounded!  Might as well go into turret mode and take 40% more damage!!

It grinds my gears when obviously OP stuff like Slug gets near-immediate attention and yet obviously UP stuff like Brawler Turret is left to fester for months, if not years
(that's not to say that the Slug change is unwelcome of course)

People have complained about hellfires for a long time. I haven't had any huge issues on either side myself, but its easy to see why a weapon you don't really have to aim could be problematic, or at least annoying to play against.
On second thought let's not go to #hawkenscrim. Tis a silly place.
Watch me pretend to be good at Hawken (Twitch).
