I tend to agree. With all that maneuverability and firepower, a Scout is quite formidable and IMHO, the one mech that still seems legitimately "OP".
I can also see it being tough to balance out a Scout from a programming point of view, but maybe not impossible.
lol. try fight with brawler in 1vs1 on scout. and you very fast understand simple thing - scout is not OP :D

Perhaps I am interpreting it as such when the case is actually a bit more complex.
It could very well be that my skill in heavies is sorely lacking whereas the scouts that stand out are piloted by experts. (_)

Brawler = hitscan burst + splash burst. A good counter to a mech that survives by being next to impossible to track up close, if the Brawler pilot has lightning reflexes. Also removal of boost-firing bug means less damage from the Scout while dancing around. Coincidentally, the Scout has the same weapons. And it can get to optimal range fast and stay there as long as it wants.

Try the same against a mech with mostly sustain damage or worse, projectiles. Laugh yourself to death while they desperately try to hit you with their primary, or run away if they do get your armor low with explosives.

sure let me hop into some random 1500-rated pub or whatever you're playing in and stomp the snot out of a bunch of nobodies. this will certainly help my reaper overcome the HP differential versus a C-class that doesn't miss.
true. I strongly doubt that the ripper is able to kill brawler with SA. he just did not have enough HP.

i'm still waiting new patch, when brawler gain new ability. I can already see how brawler turns into a "monster", if he gets any ability other than current turret-mode :D

Incin is the strongest mech in the game bar none.
the only problem in his weapons. use baby or mama, and incin weakest C-class in game. i don't know more pathetic mech than incin with bear:baby.
balance_ don't hear. endless shooting - something that ruined game balance and never be good.
You simply don't use the bby or the mma. The ppa is crazy good and the alternate mode of the SAER has a low refire, has a lot of splash, does very good damage, and can't overheat.

since the jump shot bug was eliminated. Irrelevant because C classes can't do that either now, nor can B classes

Yes, the other classes could do it too but the A's benefited more from it because of their mobility. (you can start d!ck measuring with me here to prove me wrong if you want but you'll fail)
I don't even understand your logic here. With this logic I could say each time a shared weapon between A class and C class is nerfed C classes take a bigger blow because with there limited mobility they can't be in as much frays as A classes so there total damage output would be way lower. And I could also say that a buff to a shared weapon would provide a greater buff to A classes because of their "mobility".

Anyway this not the point. I do not approve of them removing the "glitch"  TBH because it makes game more clunky and slow(I will agree with people on this) but saying that removing somehow hurt A classes more is horse fuzzy bunny because each mech lost the benifit of the "glitch". You would be able to say that it hurt A classes if they only removed the "glitch" for A classes. But since each class lost an extra mobility option I don't see the problem.

Good day, and no measuring d!cks today... me not in the mood...

I too want to get in on the duck measuring.

On topic: A-classes used to be able to negate incoming damage (dancing around their targets) while dishing out at the same time, thanks in no small part to the boost-jump-shoot move. Losing out on these additional damage opportunities impacts them the most because with their low HP buffer they are already handicapped in the damage race.

Not saying that this is bad, one could even argue that this raised the skill ceiling. Now A-classes have to care about positioning much more and can't just out-twitch everyone who failed to start playing shooters at age 10 while being able to engage and disengage from larger classes at will.

Every comp team runs with the maximum allowed C class mechs + tech.  When players work as a team, it comes down to a war of attrition (pokes until you get an advantage and then push in).  Health in this case helps more than movement speed because those pokes can kill A mechs.

Also, in a 1v1.  If a C mech hits all their shots, the A mech will lose every time.

I think B classes are the strongest. They are nearly as fast as A classes but habe much more armor. However, a little speed buff for A classes and everything is alright (boost speed only around 2m/s)

opinion is one of the few things you have as a person. in a world in which so many things is a grey area so to speak, it shows what kind of a person you are if you will stand by your word, or be let bullied by some idiot with a chip on his shoulder.
