Wednesdays at 7 PM PST / 10 PM EST / 2 AM GMT


This week: April 23rd


This week! We're going to get patch notes! Probably an hour before the show starts or something because ZC is the world's number one troll! How do I know_ Watch Hawken's official livestream sometime! They tell us stuff and you can win meteor credits, and even swag sometimes! Until then, we're short on topics and questions! So ask them here so we can all give you our perspective!

Also! We'll be giving away some Hawken Credits this show to a lucky viewer, so make sure you watch and are following the stream! If you're not following the show, you aren't eligible to win!

If you haven't already, go join the official Hawken Steam group, and also write a review for Hawken, and upvote the ones you like! Gotta get the word out about Hawken and get as many new players as we can!

Was the Air Compressor was implemented because of a genuine change of heart of the designers or because of demand_

Why do we have parties, when we have a working server browser and a working friends-list_

Questions (will be updated over the next few days):
  • Is there anyone working the localisations atm_ What about crowdsourcing the translations_ There are quite a few players from non-english-speaking countries that would be glad to help!
  • Is there any chance that we will get ingame tutorial videos or VR training for Siege for new players_
  • What are your suggestions to improve the player retention_ (thread)
  • The upcoming patch includes bobbleheads. Are there plans for a Laila bobblehead_ (suggestions)

What's the status of Physx features/updates_ Physx effects have noticeably changed many times but changes were never mentioned in patch notes or videos etc. additionally we haven't heard anything regarding a destructible map(s) or their potential for co-op modes since the last update many months ago.

We're going against Latin Power, and apparently Estif left them and so I expect to take home the win against them.

I think that with the devs making the paints universal, then it makes your investment in that paint worth more than what it usually is. I know it sounds crazy, but hear me out.

Let's say that you've bought the same paint, lets call it pink checkers. You would have spent roughly 2280 MC if i remember correctly. Now, this seems like quite a lot, and its definitely twice as much as it would have been to only have unlocked it on one mech. But now, the developers have decided that you get to use that same paint job on EVERY mech you have or ever will have. This will inevitably save you immense amounts of money. if you were to have bought the pink checkers paint on every mech previously, you would have spent 20520 MC. Now, you get it for nearly 90% off.

I understand that it would have been ideal if you had only purchased each camo once, but this is still a vast improvement over having to buy each skin for every individual mech.

Just for reference:

19584 MC to paint all 17 mechs CLR-BLK, that is ~$113. I don't know how much it costs now but even if it was triple the current cost it would be ~$20 would save you ~$93.

2248 MC to paint all 17 mechs DESERT-TAN, that is ~$13. I don't know how much it costs now but even if it was triple the current cost it would be ~$2.3 would save you ~$11
