Mechwarrior Online - F2P
This Steam launch has really brought a lot of new people into the game. I'm taking tons of friendly fire at the spawn point about 25% of the time, and I actually had to kill a guy today to make him stop.
I noticed that. Tons of newbs, which if you know what you're doing can help boost your stats big time.
Refresh my memory... is 750 for a war horn full price, or half price?
I don't know. I believe the prices of the horns might vary? A quick google search wasn't specific enough to give me an answer.
Someday I will learn that if I want people to play an online game with me, I can't act too enthusiastically about playing it.
I was on late Friday, during the day Saturday, and again late Saturday night. I have a very hard time getting online prior to the kids going to bed and they're going older, which means later bedtimes (8:30 - 9 on weekdays and 10-11 on weekends). Damn them for wanting to spend time with me!
We'll have more time in the next few weeks. I probably won't be on tonight or Wednesday, but I think Friday is an annual cookie party my wife and kids go to and are there until 1-2 a.m. So when you get back from SW, I'll be available.

I did download the Steam version of the game on Friday night but never got around to playing it. I wouldn't mind playing it again for some fun times, but I have to admit, Cake and I have been having lots of fun playing ranked LOL lately.
If you guys get something going some night let me know. And as always, if I'm at my computer ill be logged into Steam.

I'll be getting on late this week due to family stuff every night in the early evening, but I'm definitely playing the stocking stuffer event.

Sweet, the Stocking stuffer event! Looks like there are no mechbays to be won this time around, but I think I already have 6-7 spares. Also, the Centurian for the grand prize is a bit underwhelming, but you can sell it and its a free mechbay. Extra C-bills are always welcome in this game.
Gordon, did you figure out the faction thing yet? if not, set it up. Any faction is fine with me, just make sure its Inner Sphere. We were House Steiner last time if you were wondering.
By the way I was placed in Tier 3 when I logged in the other day. Tier 1 is top and that's all I know about that system, I've been away from the game for quite a while now. Looks like lots of new mechs, updated maps and UI. I'll be interested to see how community warfare has changed when I get a chance to do that. I'll be on to play, but being the holidays I'm not really sure when as of now.

I'm Tier 4, like... 80% of the bar is filled, left to right? I'm not even sure how to read that, or what it is.
How does your tier bar move?
I haven't bothered with factions.... 20 games in the last week, and I am still seeing the new modifies maps, so I haven't bothered with factions since last time I played it was all broken with like 48 Stormcrows on the field. But I'll do whatever you guys want to do with it if we are all on to play. I don't even care.

Some of the new maps are tough.
You get an up or down arrow in the middle box of the first post game summary screen. I've typically seen up arrows on wins and down arrows on losses. I remember being a bit shocked by down arrows on some of the games I had, so I don't know what the cut off is to get an up arrow, but I believe winning is a big factor.
I know I'm Tier 3 now and climbing.
I've been killing it with my Jenner and Centurion mechs. Seriously, I've had some MONSTER games with my Cents. Meanwhile, my CTF-4X has been a complete bust. I think the current build I have for it is outdated based on changes they've made.
I'm running with about $80 million cbils right now. So out of touch with what mechs are hot that I'm not sure what to master next. I do find the mechs I see to be interesting based on all the new ones I've seen released over the past year. Not too many of them out there...

Re: Mechwarrior Online - F2P
It's my annual meetings week at work, so I've got evening events going on too, but I still have this installed and play from time to time. I will we had a team playing regularly as contracted mercs. I think that'd be a lot of fun.

Launched a game last night after a long absence. Holy shit has it changed.
Might start playing it again in the months to come as I have less gaming time at night for a bit.

I'll jump back in if I can manage to build a new pc one of these days.

Need a 24" monitor? I've got a spare laying around collecting dust. (Soon it will be two.)
It's not a shitty one either.

Can it rotate vertical on the stand? I could use one that did that.

Define rotate vertically. You mean tilt?

I assumed he meant means make it portrait instead of landscape.
It's not me, it's someone else.

That.
I am hurting for desk space, it would have to be vertical.
