Yep,you usually have to set your weapon groups at the start of a game after you add new weapons to a mech.
The trail mechs overheat easily so make sure to manage your weapons groups.

Sold my Gauss Cat. Built a Streak Cat.
Open Beta starts tomorrow. Time to try something new before Closed Beta is over!
I had a streak cat before,you need to have a large engine when running a streak cat so you can close the distance without too much difficulty.You should also be able to max the armor on a streak cat without too much of a problem.

AC/2 is for knocking enemies so they can't fire back and medium lasers are for damage.SSRM2 is for scaring lights.
Lol,you still have a week before open Beta.I make 2.5mill a day playing with Premades.Especially last night where a group used a method to win a game under 5minutes.
Stack AMS and let all the Atlas mechs walk at the front while pushing to their base with the shortest route.
Oh crap. I thought Open Beta is tomorrow?
Yah I played with some Yanks over the weekend. I made around 3mil. Worked quite well together. Definitely easier with premades.
I'll see if I can join tomorrow night again. Should roll a Streak Kitty with me, pick targets apart :D
I played with one before but it didn't suit my style,it's basically just get in close and wait for the lockon then fire,they usually hit the center torso but some good players will turn their mechs to spread the damage around.
Nice thing about the Streak cat is that you can put the streaks in chainfire and just keep pounding a target and he won't be able to hit back accurately.
I seem to be getting a lot of lag :(
will have to go fiddle with the settings a bit I think
last nyt the lag was insane for me but this morning was fine wonder if its due to changes on their servers
