Why blue large laser?

[Justin Kase]

Maybe we need this sound mod for BattleTech. I'd be up for it

Wasn't this a livestream goal?

Then they need to add Dakka for the Ballistics

You didnt already hear that? Did you not play MWO? They sound just like that already in that game.

was a Founder waaayyy back in the day for MWO but got a refund when they changed direction mid stream.
that was a long time ago...memory fails me

I should have gotten the refund ^^ i still have this legendary founder mechs in my garage but never played after they changed course in the beta

For sure!

Higher wavelength lasers go further and are more powerful?

That's my 5-second canon.

Just noting its the opposite way around: Red is highest wavelength (and thus lowest energy) while blue is shortest wavelength (and thus highest energy). Which fits fine with the game (although, as noted, in practice there's a whole lot of other things that are far more important for determining laser power).

 

[Corraidhin]

The laser colours are functionally irrelevant, consider them to be part of the manufacturers technical or aesthetic preference I guess.

and you missed a perfectly good pun opportunity for some laser cannon canon...

I felt like I missed some good pun opportunities as well.

I should have red the thread better, however I just didn't have the energy, so I blue it. People that can think on their feet like that just makes me green with envy.

Nice burn

 

[Antagonist85]

Anything less than a graser is just child's play.

Indeed.

 

[Edmon]

Indeed.

If you want to improve your laser jokes, I could give you a few pointers.

And *whoosh* for missiles....

[MeiSooHaityu]

I'm just glad we can shed some...light when it comes to lasers, their attributes, and BattleTech

 

[Zyrrashijn]

Gosh, let it die already. The least this derailed thread needs is more amplification.

 

[unclecid]

Oh i dont mind...not really
and i would say tangent more then derailed.

 

[MeiSooHaityu]

We probably should realign our tangent and view it through a different lens. Something to focus it back into a fine point.

Not to make light of your view, but upon reflection I feel it lacks sufficient power to sway those on a different wavelength.
