Wah?
MKII pwns face and only has half its intended armor?
This cant be right... It would be super hard to bring down if it had double survivability... just making things harder for poor Atlas...

hmmm? Pick Mad Cat (mk1) and you can destroy mk2 without even going red.
What makes madcat MK2 good now is it's weapons which can bring enemy down before he can bring it - but other than that it really have shitty armor.

hmm I'd say it's it's jump jets, it's what really gives it's edge over an atlas.

The Beatstick do not have jumpjets.
And don't come around here with all that yapping about these alleged "other" mkII variants. We shall hear none of it!

/Mr.F - Will testify to the fact the beatstick die in any open combat where it can not suddenly appear within sneeze-range.

I guess I never noticed cause I only take the Prime variant and can chew anything up at range before they notice I'm there to return fire. Such a great design and the ammo issues are great balance, cant just indiscriminately unload on anything and you have to go back to base rather quick if there are lots of assaults around. For this reason though I might hesitate on it in capture mode if there are not MFB's in the game by then... oh and... Beatstick in capture mode... LoL!

Pffft. Surely there is nothing the beatstick can't do. It has 4xLBX20!  ;D

/Mr.F - Would like to equip the beatstick with a towcable so it could pull an APC behind it though...
