So much fun.

I now have a mental image of your pilot floating down the river in a little smoking box.

That's how I saw it. Hey, at least I lived to fight another day, right?

I call shenanigans.

I haven't see more than 1100 damage in any game tonight. People claiming 1700 damage from LRM users every game is bull.

In another thread someone even said a Cat C4 with just 2 LRM20s did 2800 damage. Can it even carry that much ammo???

2 LRMs 20s blowing you up from perfect armor, bull.

It's not even believable.

And the worst part is someone new to the game will come here and think you guys are being truthful and get mad and quit.

You think dozens of people here on the forum somehow organized themselves to make up all the LRM problems mentioned all over the forum tonight? Please pass me the tin foil, I forgot to buy some and I know you must have plenty of it.

I asked in game and no one else had seen it either.

Maybe it only happens at low Elo?

[zverofaust]

SRMs are pretty ridiculous right now too. Turned a corner into a Splatcat in my Cataphract -- his first and only volley tore through my center and side torso and arm armour and left the internals orange. ONE VOLLEY. I was full health before that.

The eff.

Please tell me you never get killed by LRMS, that never fails to amuse me.

I find it interesting why you need a separate account to type text with big fonts.

First time I've used LRMS since closed Beta.

FIrst match with my Jager with LRMS. 3 kills. 3 Assists.

Second Match with my Jager. 2 Kills. 5 Assists.

I didn't have to do much work to dish out some quick deaths like in the past. If you can't escape incoming volleys, you're toast.

I was only running LRM 15 x2 LRM 5 x2

[Roland]

Hey folks, here's a fun mech to try.
A1
6 LRM15's
Some garbage light engine

The thing fires off 90 LRM's in a single volley. It can't fire off many, but each trigger pull does between 300-600 damage. You can one shot fresh mechs without having line of sight on them, currently.

Last match over 1600 Damage with LRM's and 3 kills to boot.

This is comedy!

[jay35]

It's DEFINITELY not just legs that are suddenly more vulnerable. If you watch an enemy mech getting hit by friendly LRM fire you will see they are getting upper body abuse like crazy. LT, RT, CT, and arms are all getting smashed to hell in 1-2 volleys.

[Corwin Vickers]

I can't say I never get killed by LRMs because you're supposed to be able to be killed by LRMs.

I can say I haven't been killed by LRMs tonight.

I can say I have not seen anyone score over 1100 damage tonight


People earlier in the thread said people were easily getting 1700 damage with LRMs. This would be very easy to prove with a screenshot.

And btw, I was incorrect when I said that someone said a C4 did 2800 damage with just 2LRM20s, it was an A1 so it couldn't have tag. I would love to see a screenshot of 2800 damage.



SCREENSHOTS!

Be sure to mention that it is tonight in the screenshot

So whats the solution, pick a wall and hug it? Might as well give the other team a free run to your base and shut down. You need to move sometimes. And in this case the Stalker and I were headed to the same spot, I just had to turn around to clear his six and the LRM boats used the Raven's target info to nuke us both.

Still, 30 lrms shouldnt' be killing mechs off like that.

The solution is to stop playing until PGI gets a ******* clue.

Playing all night and not killed by LRM fire once. Been hit by plenty of ballistics though. Maybe new patch madness, but have not seen much effective use of cover tonight. Ballistics do require exposure and line of sight, and seem to get picked off by Lurms while taking long range sniper shots.



It's been down right ugly I tell you.

This makes me sad. I thought your first post was the tao of troll.

Oh well! At least now we know the ultimate response to any post.

Yeah, I have been noticing that LRMs are basically oneshotting me.
