The bloopers are fun and I'm glad they included them.
A word on FFA, I wish they could just let us shoot blues, and if we accidentally/purposefully kill one when there are no reds nearby, the game shifts instantly into 10 mech FFA.

Initial impressions:
New map looks good.
Skins are meh... not my thing. Not really into sports. The Ferrari KS might be an exception... IDK yet.
What the Hell is holdup with the Disc Launcher?
No mention of Clans (unless I missed it)
No mention of second copy compensation.
FXBen is now famous! (Clan leader, not on this site... but still a few of y'all are in the clan so... make sure to ask for his autograph!)
I miss Stan from War Robots... but this dude isn't too bad.
Even though we want to know more than they gave us, I am still glad they have continued this vlog.
'Bout it... for now. May watch again and add to this... have been juggling phone calls and may have missed something.

I know im beating a dead horse here, but I too noticed no mention of second copy comp. I wish they would tell us what we can expect. I'm like a plane stuck in a holding pattern, circling the airport waiting to land. I currently cannot even plan a path to go down. Do i need to pick up new mech's? Do i need to upgrade ines i have? Should i invest in upgrading weapons? Should i get new weapons?

Clans was mentioned....but only in the context that we (the players) have already formed a lot of them and they like that. dukeofadvil, I would probably not plan anything too far right now. Just coast along with what you have and if you have blueprints and spare credits, throw a level or two at some things, but don't over commit. That's what I'm doing right now. My lofty goals of maxing my Guardian or Panther right away went out the window when I quickly ran out of blueprints. Ditto with Killshot, though I can probably throw one more level at it, it's nowhere close to maxing. My Shadow can get a few more levels, and I can likely rank it up to 6, but I don't really see the point right now.

Just hoarding resources until this all shakes out. Then we’ll see what path I’ll take.

I upgraded my most used bots in levels and rank, with a plan to do more as resources come in. Ares was 3 star and Javs needed a couple levels. Iirc Zephyr gets a rank after I get the a-coins together. Or I could save for a Railgun as that seems to be required to advance in MA. I do already have Stasis beam 16 though. Idk. I will just wing it.

RG16 is a must but only if you have a mech that can do a decent combo with it, ie, 24EN and up.

I do like that that includes KS, the Tank Twins, and Zephyr now... but I still want to max a Shadow to run RG on it. Just seems delightfully cruel in Squad battles. Prolly won't be a large kill count... but as a tank killer... flanking maxed Ares and hitting their soft backsides while affected by other Blues' EMP/Panther Fence/Redox Sneeze, etc., it could help. But it would def be more for Squads than for Solo.

Yeah, I do want to run RG16 on the Shadow at least once just for giggles. But, I'm pretty frantic when I pilot the Shadow. I have a feeling I'll be swearing a lot at all the missed shots at 15m or less.

That’s why I’m down to just 2-3 games a day - it’s all my blood pressure can handle.
