Eventually. Apparently a test like this occurred a few weeks ago. PGI may be gathering live metrics in anticipation of Community Warfare. The end goal at some point will be IS vs IS, Clan vs Clan, and yes, IS vs Clan. Maybe not in the form that it's in at this moment, but in some form.

Coincidence, as far as I know. I've never seen it happen.

What I HAVE seen, though, is the numbers of Clan machines steadily climbing. It's not uncommon to find myself in a match where 16/24 'mechs are Clan.

as posted above this, a few times, PGI HAS done it, IS doing it, and testing the results for matches like that.

Ive looked at topics and most of them are pure bitching with no actual information.

and i am not part of the test thingy so that is not correct.

AND nobody has shown me anything that officially states something from PGI

it was on twitter, I'm not digging it up. If you'd rather believe everyone is lying to you, well more power to you.

It's being done on purpose a blind monkey can see it.
They have to get metrics form somewhere for community warfare.
I just pray to the mechgods they don't tell ss 12 Clan mechs vs.12 IS mechs if fair and balanced.
Sometimes "canon" is not a bad word.

Noobs getting utterly crushed by 60$ mechs all day sure makes for a healthy playerbase. :P
I'm sure they storm the clan-shop just in this moment.

60 dollars or 60 cents. It doesn't matter, if you're bad you're bad and no amount of currency will change that.

Wrong, a bad timber will do better than any bad IS heavy.

More damage isn't necessarily better.

If you put 2 equally bad players in mechs, the one playing the better & more easy to use mech is going to win, in this case the clans hands down.
