Weekly Review – Jan. 25th

Hey guys, weekly update here, lots of news all over the place!

We’ve got a sale on the MC cost on non-Hero Dragons, which started today at 10am PST, and will go until 10am January 28th. If you’ve been looking at a particular Dragon you’d like to get, now’s the time!

Yesterday we added a new desktop wallpaper, this time of the new Spider, in flight! Love the image, and I really do find the little guy fun to watch. Annoying to hit, yes, but fun to watch!

Oh yeah, we had that whole patch thing too! People are reporting a much easier time hitting fast moving targets, and in general that the game feels ‘smoother.’ We’re really happy with it, and if you haven’t yet, go give it a try!

With that patch we also got our newest Hero Mech – the Death’s Knell. A quick moving, hard to hit, four arm laser’d Commando we’ve all come to love. If you love the Commando chassis, or want to try one with four lasers in the arms, this is your Mech!

Bryan went and updated the Content Roadmap, as well as the Feature Roadmap, so if you’re curious what’s coming down the pipeline, go check those out!

Also, today we will be having the Twitch event at 6pm PST (I will sadly be unable to attend, but will be playing sporadically throughout the day.) I hope you all still tune in, and sync up your drops! It’s great seeing players new and old participate, and we can all see whatever bizarre paint scheme Phil is using this week. Oh, and about those events: We’ve locked our times for them in, and we will have a page on our website specifically for the twitch events. They will be:

• Monday: 9am PST to 11am PST
• Tuesday: 2pm PST to 4pm PST
• Thursday: 9am PST to 11am PST
• Friday: 6pm PST to 8pm PST

Thanks for tuning in, and we hope you all have a great weekend!

Cheers,
The MechWarrior Online Team
