we have a Heat Charge that's pretty awesome.  why not a Cooling Charge.  I know a couple of mechs have the 'immediate' cool down ability like the assault and the recruit.  but i think a Cool Charge would be great for all mechs to use .  like how the heat charge effects everyone maybe this cooling charge could be used by you and your team only when in battle, you know for whoever steps inside it.

Easily OP if not done correctly, but love the concept.

[WastingTime]

I like the idea
but playing devils advocate it would make orb lording even more viable

[The_Silencer]

no no

 

Get closer to an Incinerator team mate and you got it

 

good try though ;)

[snoopy187]

cool.  thanx for the responses.  glad some people gave it a read.

 

 

 

snoop out.

Things i am not sure we need: pocket Incins. like Crock said, easily OP

[Rainbow_Sheep]

If it was done properly it would be a good item but as people above me have stated it could be OP

 

Hopefully Incin will get a look at/re-work

[snoopy187]

cool.

At first glance, such an item might go the wrong way with ease.. However...

 

Maybe by having it slowly and progressively cooling down weapons within an small ratio plus making it to behave as if were an EU Station; mostly by delivering a limited amount of cooling points in between any given mech into its Area of Effect and prior to go out of service.

 

But hey... I find this to be a very sensitive subject if implemented in the future..

 

For example, insta-cooling-down everybody within its AoE would definitely be bad idea, IHMO... I may see more cons..

 

 

I'd prefer having such an equipment individually working for your mech only and never cooling down your weapons beyond a 25%*  (*some testing required here).

 

Something like this might work pretty more coherently as one new internal in the game.

Somehow more fair and survival oriented, for instance, by giving you a last chance for firing back while you're dramatically low on health right after overheating. Different percentage of recovering per each internal version... and so forth.. =)

 

Although I do also think that some mechs should not have such an internal available in the garage ...

 

That would be my first approach for your original post. ;)

Actually, you've small negative damage modifiers as internals in the game so .. you know... not a terrible idea after all. ;)

 

Additionally, 1 well balanced w_cooling charge as item and working in the same way as healing orbs does not look so bad either.. at leasy at first glance.. but still a sensitive subject due to its inherent and potential gameplay impact. Also the mechanics of it may look a bit too much like a mess here...

'The_Silencer'  u hit the nail right on the top.  very very kool.  very awesome feedback.  when writing it i did forget to convey that i think the Cooling Charge should gradually cool down the mech and instead i typed down 'like how the heat charge effects everyone' u know when they step inside it.  but again thank u for the killer feedback.  this is gonna sound corny as heck but  please please if their are any developers who read this please take this idea for your own and please make it real.  haha for the goodness of all us Hawken pilots n warriorz who have joined the Hawken Universe.
