lol I get it, I forgot whom I am dealing with. Sorry, it was a slight oversight in judgement.
I get it now, the majority of people here want to pad their stats. Stats that are so precious to one that they protect with any means necessary. After all a Win is a Win, Right? I mean...I get it now, why should I play a game where Im surrounded in a minimum of 25 Tons of Armor. With Weapons, and I have to actually USE it? Sheesh...that sounds like to much work. I see your guys point now.
I'm sorry, I just dont know what I was thinking. Your right, I am being a sore loser because after all, I wanted to take the easy way out.Even though we were only down 3 pilots to start off? Fight? OMG heavens forbid , tarnish my paint job? I paid 1000MC for that...hellz no.
Give me a freakin break. VERY DISAPPOINTING!

Nah..over it,dealt with it. But ya know what get's me? The fact that this is the majority opinion here. They would rather take a Win over anything. No desire for battle, in which of course..this game is derived from.
Believe me, I am a strategist at heart. I understand the concept of capping. After all the changes from closed till now...this issue remains.
In essence...I want to fight and engage. THAT is how I find this game entertaining. Nothing smells better than a true blooded victory.
And for crying out loud, we were outnumbered and outgunned...what would you have to lose? Your still coming out with better xp and cbills and probably a better cushion on your stats.
All I see now in matches is gutless wins

Play Conquest. That's the one that's designed for fighting. Assault has nothing to do with fighting, it's about base rushing. I realize the names are counter-intuitive but that's how it works.

This. Also, I too would probably have just headed toward your base after seeing 3 disco's on your team. Why draw it out? The match is already won, just end it at that point. Also, why get upset about it, the faster they cap, the faster you get to hit the launch button again.

[One Medic Army]

Do what I do.
Play conquest.

Btw Conquest Alpine rocks, the only situation yet in MWO where blobbing LOSES!

Good, it sounds like you learned from your mistakes and terrible posting.

I'm glad we had this chat.

actually whats going on here is the rush of success involves dopamine, and those that enjoy this feeling when they win must win at any cost.

you're just upset that you're unable to attain this feeling and are grabbing up excuses for why you can't achieve it. when the reality is you haven't grown desperate enough to throw away your individuality and do what works opposed to what you want to do.


all i can say is you have no right to complain about losing. ESPECIALLY when you aren't doing everything in your means to win in the first place. Even then instead of complaining one should figure out honestly what went wrong so that it can be fixed.

unless of course you're just a naturally miserable person who likes to make excuses to complain about because it gets you attention, but i wouldn't know. personally you seem like an all right person to me, maybe you're just tired or angry and suffering from burnout. If you take a break you might come back in a better attitude.

I was an anti cap rager once. Today i started using my 3L more aggresively to try and influence the win... Cap is a great tool for applying pressure. On river, i started cappin and kept 1 awesome 1 atlas and a phract who were camping base busy enough to make my team win the brawl. So cap is a tool, if you dont wanna get capped defend it.

Looks like a premade. The fourth guy is probably in a light capping your base.

Game modes and match maker needs to be fixed.

lol I appreciate the psychobabble, but really. I just dont come on to this forum to discuss just anything, or even Troll.
I do feel I have a right to express my disappointment. After all, I have supported this game in most facets since day one of the opening here. I also would agree with those statements on Conquest. It seems the only way.
Yes, I have learned a valuable lesson tonight. I have learned that if you play Assault matches, you are prone to what I originally spoke of. Granted, I should know better, I just had hoped it was somehow hopeful that it would change. I am severely wrong.
And to anyone...Look, you can flame me all you want. Fact of the matter is...I'll be waiting for a brawl,anyday...anywhere. You keep taking your wins by capping. One day, you will see me on the grid. I hope you make it a point to call me out.
FYI- I have an extremely good Win ratio. I win because I fight. Oh, and btw ...its all in a Lite.

you're completely right, and I think it's disappointing as well. so disappointing in fact I actually took a break for a few months. If this game was released status I probably would put it down and never come back, but the developers themselves have said "It's a beta" and they haven't let me down yet, so I have no problem waiting until their idea of a finished game comes to bear.

but yeah, if you get burned out, don't play through it. I find the best way to avoid burnout is to take a break from time to time, and find something else to do if you're getting frustrated. That's harder than it sounds but always have other things to do.

You did see on the 'objectives' part of the loading screen, and pre-startup screen... where it says "Capture Enemy Base"...right?

This isn't TDM.. If you don't want your base capped... defend it.

You totally ignored my response, so I will make it again and actually call you out.

You by YOUR own admission AVOIDED the fight. You said they were in your base and you lost because they capped. This means NO ONE on YOUR team went back to YOUR base to fight them. Who's the coward now? YOU are. There's no way you could have been capped so fast that you couldn't respond unless you were very close to the enemy base, probably trying to cap it yourself, but your enemy got to your base first.

This has nothing to do with players not wanting to fight or padding stats. This has to do with 5 individuals AVOIDING a fight in their own base. But yet you're ticked off because you found a spot on the map you could funnel eight players in one by one and expected the sheep to come to the slaughter and they didn't take the bait.

YOU avoided the fight. YOU lost. Deal with it.

[StandingCow]

A win is a win... the enemy team that wins by cap isn't going to care that you think it's cheap or unfair...they won the match, they out smarted your team and took the win.

Lick your wounds, learn to defend the base...
