    We normally coordinate meching through skype and go into mumble for the latency.

    Perhaps we could set up a skype convo geared specifically towards mechs and just save the members so that everyone can get a notification.

    UPDATE TODAY: http://mwomercs.com/game/patch-notes

    Lances
    - Players will automatically be grouped into lances when they join a match.
    - Players who are grouped together before entering the match will be assigned to lances together as best as possible.
    - There is a maximum of 4 players per lance, and 3 lances per team.
    - Currently, the third lance will only be created if needed because of player groupings.
    - Players will now have a lance HUD element in the upper left of their screen which will inform them of their lancemates' health and grid location.
    - Members of your lance will be marked in a different color on your HUD.
    - In addition to taking command of the team, players can choose to take command of their lance while in the BattleGrid.
    - The team commander is automatically the commander of his lance. The team commander's lance cannot have a separate lance commander.
    - Lance commanders can assign orders to their lance. Only members of their lance will see the orders.
    - Lance commanders are marked with captain's bars.
    - Team commanders can assign orders to all lances, and see the orders given by all lance commanders.
    - Team commanders are marked with a star.
    - All Commanders can remove orders they have given by clicking the order on the BattleGrid and choosing "REMOVE ORDER".
    - Team commanders can rearrange lance membership by dragging the players' names to different lances on the BattleGrid.
    - Players can chat to just the members of their lance by pressing 'U'.

    I assume this still does not mean we can group more than four.

    That is correct :/

    So, tonight @Midga and I were mechin', and I decided to play my recently revamped hunchie. Early on in the match, things were looking bad. Midga was wasted nearly right out the gates by taking an AC20 to the back. There was a small skirmish in the midfield city before people started spreading out. We were down significantly, like 4 or 5 Vs 9. I was almost certain we were gonna lose the match.

    Then I put the team on my back:

    Considering the hunchback I'm suspicious. Did the AC20 to Midga's back come from YOUR MECH.

    FITE ME IN 4G

    But seriously, I would pay to have witnessed that match; one little founders Hunchie wrecking some heavy/assault face.

    I mean it's a bad mech, right? Right?
    imageJust not as bad as a jager trolol.

    hahahaha I hate you so much.

    Midga did seem to enjoy specing that Ac20 madness. I was imagining your uncontrollable laughter with each kill, and subsequent smack talk.

    Time to remember and fight us in mechs! Game has gotten significantly better since alpha.


    Fun storytime - The other night when we were playing with Ryokyo and Hitman. It was late game, Basil and Rykyo were down, and Hitman and I survived near a cap point. Hitman and I had decided to make a last stand in a valley between two mountains. Ahead of us were two mechs, an Atlas with something else, and me in my Jager mech with Hitman in his Dragon and we felt like we could take them on. Basil had just died, but he put some hurt on them.

    So we buckled in and slowly backed up in an attempt to escape the valley while firing punishment at the two mechs ahead of us. Hitman started yelling on mic to dig in and kill them, so we fired everything we had at them.

    That's when I saw the two red blips on my radar on our left.

    I spun to the see another Atlas a catapult cresting the mountain to our left side. I had a short "clever girl" moment, before they opened fire on us and destroyed me immediately.

    I specced Hitman just in time to see him making this valiant effort in a 4v1 with three Atluses before he went down in a blaze of glory.

    image

    The whole bit reminded me of the intro to Mechwarrior 4 where the single vulture engages in a suicide mission to delay the entire invading force, and he just gets completely destroyed while trying to just put a few shots in the enemies



    Definitely one of my favorite moments in recent time with MWO

    I tried to into mech this morning. I am not good at this. Should be fun once I get used to the controls and play with some other ICs.

    After wiping and installing Windows 8 64-bit, I cannot install MWO. I've installed .Net, DirectX, and visual C++. I've tried "Microsoft FixIt"...

    When I try to install it in the default or anywhere else, within a few seconds it errors. It looks like it fails when it is either looking for or updating the Visual C++.

    Sight, PGI and their amazing frequent ability to nuke installs of the game.

    Paging @basil who always managed to fix my issues with the game.

    @qch
    try installing this:
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5555

    You may have installed the 64 bit variant, but their installer is requiring the x86 variant and it fails when it attempts to download it to a temp folder.
