Competitive gaming is not computer gaming at all.

Computer gaming is meant to be fun and relaxing. I suggest you PGI to isolate those few competitive players and other players, who just want to play for fun to different servers. The game will be better for us all. Ahh.. yes, that would be the end of competitive scene, because only marginal number of players does that anyways and they couldn't feel all mighty no more stomping newbies 12-0.

I know some competitive forum warrior will come here with some sarcastic wits... so be my guest. I'm not going to read nor reply on any of those comments, muahahahaaa!

I'm not sure you understand what weapon balance is.

[Bront]

Um, so what about the folks who have fun playing competitively?

Isn't balance supposed to help make more things competitive so more people can have fun with the builds they love?

Unless the new players are dropping the group queue, they're likely not running up against a competitive 12 man, and even then it's not likely.

No issues with competitive players. They are generally good people with ethics. Its the ones who think they are competitive and use any exploit to keep the illusion fresh in their minds. You know the type. They are all around us.

TBH, the weekend challenge made me think it was St. Patrick's Day weekend. The drunks are out in force, after all!

Whatevs bro. I'm 300MC richer than you. How much MC you get last tourny? Oh that's right...none. Mwa ha ha ha haaa!

[EvilCow]

There is some truth, competitive players will always play "meta" regardless what meta is. So is balance is really important? no, they will find the best and use it, regardless.

Causal players may want to try everything for a change.

300 MC? You disgusting one percenter, rubbing our face in your filthy corporate blood money.

I hope you sleep well at night, when there's people out there who still have stock green camo.

Actually the top 5% of players usually find the loopholes. A good game company usually closes said loopholes so that the game as a whole isn't ruined. PGI did not do that during the poptart era, or the ECM era or any other era you can think of during this game's history.

This really is the problem with online gaming. If you are being competitive you are doing anything you can to stay even with the other guys right at your heels. Just ask Lance about that bike thing.

So basically MWO is at its core either a solo online shooter requiring immense teamwork to win and therein lies the irony (especially since there is no in game voice chat). Or you play with 11 other people in an organized environment. Sadly there is no middle ground.
