I didnt say i wanted them to be as good as lasers i said i would like them to be a little better seeing as they are an unbonused weapon, whereas the others also get damage bonus for fitting to there racial mech.

And the short range laser  starts off with a hit dispersion of 8 doesn't do as much damage but with lvl6 or 7 in precision firing gets it down to roughly 6.5 whereas the machine gun is at 9.5 thats a huge amount when hitting smaller bots. And no i don't want to fit lasers as use a tyrannos, just want machine guns to be a little better against smaller bots, like the lasers or even close to the magnetic weapons

I do use an assualt to farm assaults and smaller, but its nice to take the mech out every now and then.

Why is the hit dispersion so bad on these? it is the worst out of all turrets based weapons. It should be at least 10 instead of 12, puts it along side the worst of the others and drop the autocannon down to 9.

People will probably say its this way because of its rate of fire, but it doesn't matter how fast you fire if you cant hit anything with it, talking about hitting assualts and light bots here not other mechs.

Anyone remember earth and beyond? That had a decent story line and there were events that happened that involved large groups getting together to stop invasions from the alien hords called the Vrix (i think thats what they were called, was sooo long ago).

Then EA took over and well the rest is history.

There could be staged events like having to repel the factions as they come to claim areas back from us. The could be instanced due to how large they might be, but not necessarily so, just depends if the server can handle it. There could be missions that involve more than one eliment like having to fught for some land area and then have to mine or recover some things to build something that is needed to be made to help fight an incursion. This would get more of a group to do it due to all the different eliments needed to complete it.
