Hey look, its me in the pesky Mad Dog 3:45 😆

[@yeet2k22]

Hey now me and the others making vids on this have to make trailers! Good stuff brother

[@BigTa1k]

Caught me by surprise. I didn't think I'd have to make the trailer so soon, but oh well.

[@Elite2Assault]

😂 It doesn't even really show off the difference too much tbf. It's more like multiplayer expanded gameplay lol

[@BigTa1k]

@@Elite2Assault I know but still I thought I had more time.

[@irongeneral7861]

Didn't even remember the Hellbringer being in the game 😂

[@ravenwulf8]

So does the Hellbringer do twice the fireball damage now?

[@Elite2Assault]

It has 2 flamers now so double the damage but for the most recent patch I reduced damage slightly to compensate for the 2 flamers

Hey here's a question that I have and I don't know if you'll see that on this video so I might have to ask it in the discord, but would it be possible to add a menu so you can change what kind of weapons or at least how many number of the weapons that you have on a mech are if that makes sense? I remember playing Mechassault as a kid and I loved it and then I played MechWarrior and I loved that too because you could pick what kind of weapons you wanted on your Mech. But I remember seeing an advertisement for Mechassault saying you could do that, and then the back of the cover itself on Mechassault says that you can customize your max would be cool if you could actually do that.
Edit: nvm I just looked at the back of my case it doesn't say that, but still

[@Elite2Assault]

Hmmmm I have had something like that suggested before which is a cool idea but I'm not sure how I could pull it off. Ma's engine doesn't really support custom loadouts for mechs. It's very static not really meant to be changed. It's why they have 2 variations of the same mech instead of picking what you want. Only way I could see it working would be multiple versions of the same mech but yh that's kinda silly to do it like that so not sure 🤔

@@Elite2Assault I can't remember where I read this from but it was either you or someone else on the discord or one of the pages that I was reading on the mod page either way I think I read something about how you can edit what weapons are on the Mech through a hex editor that's why I was asking I've just always thought it would be cool to see what it would look like to have a Hackman or a Belial or some other Mech that has three or four Gauss cannons just to be ridiculous. Or really fast Prometheus with five or six Gauss cannons. Or add EVEN MORE machine guns to the Thor lol.

@@wesleysackett3407 ohh, yeah you can edit a mechs loadout to be whatever you want like you mentioned lol. Just that it would be the only loadout like it would replace the original loadout unless you make it another identical mech. So switching loadouts in game would be hard to do. But yh in this vid for example I gave the hellbringer another flamer like ma2 so now it has 2

[@wesleysackett3407]

@@Heroes22211 What about making just a third variant that's completely customizable through a menu and completely unusable in multiplayer? If not then how bout just a third variant of each mech that has a ridiculous load-out just for shits n giggle. Just the "OMG it has more than TWO glass cannons!" factor does it for me. If neither of those work do you think you could make a tutorial for editing the load outs? Unless that's too much hassle as well

[@Elite2Assault]

@@wesleysackett3407 Just realised I replied on my other account 🤦 but yh I was thinking about doing a third option kinda thing with a unique loadout for some mechs but haven't thought it through completely yet so nothings off the table
