With so many PUG stomping posts, I was wondering how much people actually PUG. Log in and vote or it will mostly be Founders voting who would be more likely to be in a Clan/Guild.

Why even create a poll if you think you know the answer already?

All PUG, all the time.

[Thorstine]

Honestly, I don't know what the answer is. I was just thinking that its more likely that founders have already found a place they call home. I've seen other posts where founders say they PUG 100%. I also thought it would help everyone get a general feel for the community and how they play.

I'm in a merc corp and actually run one of our teams but I probably spend about 25% of my time solo dropping into PUG matches.

I pug 100% of the time, but I want to join a group of likeminded daffodils like me some day down the road. For now, though, it's beta and I've got school which requires lots of attention. I don't consider it a necessity.

When I play I mostly just try different things to see what works and what doesn't in the current build. (STK-3F 6LL works like a charm for pugging (most of the time))

[Ozric]

It depends on your lifestyle too don't forget. Many founders do not have the time to devote to clans or corps, what with the global recession and all, and others still prefer to keep their gaming more casual and don't want to have to worry about dropping groups every other match.

Also, the people that do like to pugstomp but don't like to admit it will of course lie in this poll.

i just dont want to talk and play with random strangers.

Since there is no CW map or smt like that i dont need to join a MW:O clan...
Some friends did play MW:O but gave it up due the discos and netcode.

So no reason besides win/lose ratio ( atleast for me ) to join a clan right now.. and since my w/l is excactly 47.7% ( just made match number 1k !!! yay for me ) i dont see a reason to change my lonewolf life.

As I posted just a few minutes ago, I am part of a merc group. However once in a while, I will PUG on occasion, about 10-20 percent out of my normal matches where I play with my premade merc group. When I do PUG, it's to either test my individual skills on my own, or to test a particular build to see how well it does.

[EyeOne]

Except for the occasional 2 or 3 man group I PUG most of the time. My W/L is not bad and I have a good time. *shrug*

[Inertiaman]

Exclusively as noone else in my clan can be arsed playing MWO until they make it more interesting.

[BrianMMXII]

PUG ?

Why founders would be automatically in clans?? I think most ppl are lone wolf at the moment.

100% pug.

How is it? Not that bad really. I do worse than I should be I'll blame that on the horrid matchmaker.
I try to support team mates as much as I can, depending about what I drive. I prefer Catapults, Awesomes (only the 9m left tho) and now Stalkers.

Currently playing Stalker with focus on long range missiles. ECM can go bite my arse.

I do much worse than I use to in games like this:

416 / 468
Wins / Losses
[color=#0A0]
1.85[/color]

Kill / Death Ratio

162,736.07
Accumulative C-Bills Per Match

709.48
Avg. XP Per Match


Some extra info there but I think its interesting in this wonderful pug thread

[Ryokens leap]

I pug a couple before dropping on TS to get warmed up or to test builds or new gear. This way i dont waste team mates time with a broken build. I've had some really great pug drops and some horrible matches but nothing can compare to dropping with voice coms with even minimal strategy.

[Mxxpower]

bu.. bu... but the poles show that most people pug?

I was told in another thread that this game is for serious players that are meant to join clans and group up on teamspeak...

someone lied

[Jman5]

By PUG do you mean lone wolfing?

Alone without a premade. Its not lone wolfing in this game. Its lone Sheeping because the wolves are the premades and you are their prey.
