As for graphics in this patch I think it depends on the rig, some people are noticing just an improvement while a lot of higher end systems are seeing the wicked graininess. I do approve of them clearing up the fog of war effect a bit, but this graininess is killing me. | ||

How precise is the shooting/damaging in the game? I.e. if you shoot them in the head can you damage their HUD or something, or if you shoot their guns can you destroy them? If yes, can you reliably do any of this from a distance? Looking forward to open beta or release. Seems like they've been delaying it for a long time; hope the wait is worth it! | ||

I don't think the HUD can be damaged, but there's many different parts on the mech that if you focus can cause critical damage and kill it more quickly than if you did general overall damage. The head and back of the mech are both not as armored as the front torso, so they take damage more easily and can be incapacitated more quickly if you focus areas like that. You can also blow off arms (they lose any respective weapons, ammo, or heatsinks on their arms if they get blown off), cripple legs, and damage any torso weapon/heatsinks to be non-functional if you focus it enough. Ammunition can also explode, causing a lot of damage, if it's being stored in an area on the mech that has taken heavy damage and taken off armor. It's harder to do all of that from a distance, because depending on the weapon, its effectiveness can drop off if it's too far out of range, or its flight-time can be hard to aim properly if it's a large caliber auto-cannon, but it's entirely possible and done if you are good enough. EDIT: after watching more of the video it looks like most of the people not shooting him are either shooting at one of his allies that are off-screen, or are just bad and missing him (like that Atlas earlier in the video on the desert map) :p | ||

But pretty much everything can be blown up, ammo, weapons, jump jets, heatsinks, the mech itself. HUD can't be damaged though. Problem is the delay though between firing and the weapon actually going off. Especially with cannons. Still this is a great game. Having a lot of fun. The different weapons, possibilites to configure your mech etc mean this game has much more variety than comparible games like World of Tanks. Also not as dependent on grinding as WoT. One should be able to play this competetively without having to pay absurd amounts. | ||

One should be able to play this competetively without having to pay absurd amounts. Thats only the case if you play from Europe. But yes, that can cause issues if you have high ping. And definitely on the grinding part, a jenner is pretty cheap and is the best mech in the game as far as I'm concerned. The netcode improvements in the last patch have hurt it some, but I still think its the best (not counting the gaussapult of course.) | ||

Unfortunately not watchable from Germany because of the music. Had to activate my proxy addon. I liked this video: Only from one battle, so gives a better impression of what one battle in cooperative play looks like. | ||

Maybe I'll give it a re-install. I've had such good memories with the older games in the series despite having played maybe less than an hour of multiplayer. If I have to, I'm willing to spend money to upgrade my rig JUST for this game (and all other games I already have) but I'd like to avoid it as much as possible. | ||
