Life after MODS

Option A: scream your impotence into the void. 

Option B: Get over it. 

I choose B. For those who are choosing to get over it here are my observations after playing MOD free in a post MOD game this week. 

The days of 1 shot kills and bulldozing are over. The people crying about OP EM rifles and Nomads should celebrate that the creators found a way to stop this style of play. Also the MODS give people who invest in Epic and  Rare mechs more of a fighting chance against legendary mechs.  

I have a Nomad with ember guns 8. Neither are maxed but that is the style I like for Nomad. Now that I can't just bulldoze with my chain dash and ember guns I've had to change my tactics. For mechs with MODS I have to stick and move until the shield is gone. It takes a little more effort to kill but I still get it done. 

The shields are far more suseptible to Heavy Duty, Assault, and Barage weapons, so I expect these weapons to become more popular. That said, my average KD and WL ratios has stayed the same, if not gotten better since my assault/barage/ heavy duty mechs are performing better now.

Hello everyone, sorry for intruding into your conversation, but I don't think it's a good idea for the community to start cannibalizing itself. I'm aware that there's different preferences between players, but we should attack one another just because of Plarium messing up all of us.

A boycott can work just as good as a revolt.

Why use the online matchmaking, when you could make private matches with friends? You could also be more open and start playing with other people, a more sustainable and rewarding solution compared to a full on purge.

Plarium will probably not take to heart what any of us have to say, so sticking together is the best solution, after all, wasn't Mech Arena based on a community-dev led relationship? Why abandon that idea now? 

I've made a community game hub, for whoever wants to play a classic game of Mech Arena, no mods, and even bots! If you have a problem with p2w, then ask other than aren't to join you in a private match, devoid of any consequences and frustrations.

I know that this game is infact dying, and quite rapidly at that, but if we band together as community and play for what we love, who needs the devs? In a private match, you can have 2v2, 4v4 even 5v5 if you're lucky- and you'll just have a nice, relaxing game of your choosing, conditions made in your terms, and the challenge set to your standards.

Nobody knows what the hell the boycott means today. Dont waste your time. take the time to enter a chat room in Spanish and you will realize, they are mostly ignorant children. Thanks, but your suggestion will never work.

Plarium knows this very well, that's why it takes all the advantage it can.

Hey you play MWO? That's cool, what Mechs do you prefer? I'm a fan of the Gladiator and Dire wolf respectively. Don't have the game, but I have MW5 mercenaries

Just like your own words to other players who don't feel convinced by this update: if you feel good about this, be quiet and move on - don't need to "scream into the void" with multiple threads here.

Lol, no, not a Nazi. But we all know your politics now. Throwing a tantrum over the slightest thing and then start screeching about nazis. Here, try this out "Hey Siri, what are the laws of supply and demand?"

petition, please sign!!! 

I signed this. While I can't fault the company for making changes to keep things fresh, part of the petiton is to remove the cost of changing implants. It makes no sense from a business perspective to discourge weapon and mech swaps. Having the freedom to change weapons and mechs for implants means trying out new weapons and mechs and spending money/resources to improve them. Its win/win to do away with the losing resocurces when you swap impant.s
