Hi all,

  Been playing Hawken since a little after new devs took over. Right around the first double xp event CaptnJosh did, so maybe 2 months now. Have to say, man, this is a f-ing great game! For how raw and under development it is, there is just a ton of potential here. I usually have a cycle of 3-4 games I play and lately I've just been playing Hawken for the most part - its taking all my free time!! Hahaha. At any rate, a buddy intro'd me to the game back then and I've really had a positive experience with it - even the trolls to me are hilarious/See more of runapanda's tail pipe than front, coincidence in the name?? hahaha - and so I thought it would be a good thing to at least get somewhat involved in the community. I just go back to my buddy helping me out a little bit in pointing me in the right direction on how to start out in the game and it really helped my enjoyability of being the good looking noob I am through the ramp up process. Anyways, that's it, that's all, thanks everyone for a fun game. Help the noob when you can!

Why thank you, I try to make matches fun and interesting, as well as funny. Sure I may use off-color humor sometimes but don't we all like that? Far to many treat the game as if it's a life ot death situation, it might feel like russian roulette but the bullets here aren't real. I know people don't like me, but that's because of my anti-serious, anti-hardcore, anti-gitgud, anti-elite take on the game. A game is a game is a game, cryptocurrency makes me money, Hawken does not, there for no dough no serious. fyi runa is short for Haruna which is the name of a red panda at a zoo near me

C'mon guys, play nice. OP is trying to give us cool points and we're here bickering like a bunch of resentful roommates (again)...

I like the OP

he's a cool guy.  

I'd even go to say

that he's quite fly

This OP, you see

knows much about me

for starters he knows

that I'm the real G

but this panda comes in

and skrubs up the place

and the thread thus ends

in bitter disgrace

Quality post.  It's good to see that new players are enjoying the game, especially when recent statistics indicate that most new players lose 75% of their matches.  Glad to hear that you've enjoyed the game enough to join the community on the forums.  Despite what the posts in this thread may indicate, we're a friendly bunch with a long history playing together and a hatred for anything related to pandas.  

 

If you're ever looking for players to play with, join the Hawken steam group and search around, or just add people on the forums and send them messages!

I like how the thread went from good guy talking to someones bitter hatred of someone else. Regardless of what ever is going on or what just happened there. I'm glad to see you're having a good time OP and with alittle luck you will continue to have fun around the community/in game. [back to the void]


Hold on to the things you care about most, even if others see it as insignificant..If you can't be true to yourself, are you really living?

Ha! Thanks all. Good point made about internet game tows and bullets not being real and shouldn't be treated as such. I've found much like people who just loooove fighting with their significant other for whatever reason, trolling is a very enjoyable facet to a game for said types of people. Where I get my enjoyment connecting tows with tailpipes over long distances that's how they get a kick out of the game. Whatevs, non battle field fighting and chaos - that's their thing - good for them. For me, makes it not so serious when you look at it that way.

 

I'm off to a better start it seems than what the average newbie goes through if win rate is only 25%. I can't stress though how helpful it was when I came in to have someone to steer me in the rightish direction. I didn't waste a ton of that hard earned hc on items/internals/mechs that seem cool but aren't or need synergy to make them shine. But more so, the "hey dude if you stand around like a scarecrow you're going to be like a ripe juicy peach that all the other players are going to want to eat, JUKE MAN JUKE" types of advice got me off to strong start. All this obviously contributed to me having a lot more fun early on. I guess what I'm getting at here is if you, the experienced player, have a chance to do this for someone, you should make it a priority to do. It'll really grow the game population I think and overall will lead to better players which for me really amps up the fun factor. I love it when I'm going up against players that are way better than me, just sponging up all their dirty little moves and adding it to my repertoire, MUAHAHAHAHA!! I just learned about health globes and the absorption internal combo synergies Monday, thank you Mal3, now I'm gonna git your a ss!

    

Cute kid poopslinger... my son looks to be just a little older than him. Xacius, you might want to talk to your partner, I think that's a baby seal or that water is reallllly contaminated.

You're NEW?  C'mon!?!?

Dude, you're a pretty tough opponent in that Scout of yours.  Especially if you've only been playing a couple of months.  Other than accusing me of being a hick from the 'sticks' (when we're from the same place) last week, you're pretty cool to play with.

 

Keep up the good fight (and try some other mechs once in a while) :P


To be serious for a moment this is just a joke

Rule #1 get the scout, learn the scout, get good with the scout

 

Rule #2 wait until pilot level 25 so you can get the air compressor as scout without one it's a tough play (learned this one a little late)

 

I don't remember the sticks thing puppet but I'm sure it was all in good fun. I played lots and lots of COD... a lot of transportable skills from there to this game except this game is like 100x faster. Glad my tows made an impression ;) I just got the Bezerker Monday! I'll be looking for you MUAHAHAHAHA!

Just keep in mind airdodging is not the central part of your movement options, only an addition to them.

Too many people nowadays just fly 24/7 - while it works against lower-tier opponents, it doesn't against people who can actually aim.

Heck, it's even detrimental to your effectiveness when facing the latter.

 

I personally don't use Air Compressor on anything besides Predator and Tech, as I feel I don't need it on other mechs.

Hawken is 100X faster than COD (and I assume you mean Modern Warfare)?  I don't see it, but I'm glad it helped and impressed that someone who likes (or liked) that type of game loves Hawken so much.  I always feel like the MW games (and the 100's of clones thereof) are too fast - all one shot kills.

 

I know your comment about being from the sticks (which I'm pretty sure the phrase is "Styx", but I get it either way) was in jest.  I never take anything like that personally.  You're cool.


To be serious for a moment this is just a joke

Thanks for the advice. I did note the player who tipped me off to looking at the health globe absorption internals ect by thoroughly trashing me didn't roll with an AC. I was like how the hell is this SOB just rubbing his muddy shoes all over my couch right now?!?!? Alas, I only have enough hc to get part of the internals and items... such is life in Hawken. Vengeance will be mine... eventually!! Thanks again.

Cupcake, friend me in game and I'd be happy to get out there with you to help you develop your skills and git some of dem HC.

 

Don Cornelius, it's no surprise the tech god spawns 60% of time you are in match... as we all know that spawn comes with 100% win rate buff. Thanks for keeping me up brotha, I'm the lucky one!

 

Thanks Jello...
