You have no idea how to play or what you are talking about as evidenced repeatedly by the "content" of your posts.  The same posts serve as equally powerful evidence that you do not care to learn, either, and already consider yourself omniscient.

And now you stand here in front of us openly accusing a long term member who`s play someone of your caliber will never see firsthand (or comprehend if he did) of cheating.  You have no proof, and no clue, but a big ******* unqualified trap.

You sir can suck it, and go fornicate yourself with whatever power tools happen to be handy, and I`m fairly certain I`m not the only one that feels that way.

Seriously, sod off and take your childish bawling somewhere where somebody cares.  Feel free to come back when you`ve grown a pair and are ready to learn and not just whine.

The basic statement about shooting lights is still the same: Lasers are your friend.

I think you missed the part where it's a troll build.

(Hence my suggestion of Artemis on a laser build).

Lasers are fine - so are SRMs, ACs, PPCs.... actually pretty much any weapon. I'd avoid flamers, machine guns and possibly SSRMs (no dumb-fire for those pesky ECM types)

Honestly I'm pretty happy to see lights closing in with me ;)

lasers are easier because of the extended fire time. you are much more likely to do "some" damage. SRMs have some spread so that makes it easier to hit. the rest are definitely harder to use. except streaks, they are the devils toys.

All mechs should be viable. Assaults aren't. Staying together on a lot of maps is a recipe for disaster.

They have already skewed mwo in favor of the heavy mechs when they doubled armour and you're crying for them to further imbalance the game.

what just because they have superior armor and fire power? i am tempted to bring out my new atlas build just for a few matches to see how many of these people i could murder.

sorry I disagree. I mostly run heavies (Dragons/Flame) but I also will run a Jenny from time to time. I have to say that I dont really have that much problems dealing with lights.

However, I do what a previous posters stated.. I stay with my team (when possible..sometimes they spread out when PUGing) if I do get caught alone vs a light.. back to the wall if I can, otherwise I slow down use my torso twist with turning..swinging opposite direction when not able to catch up... and time those shots. Usually if its just one light, they will run off if I dont blow off a leg.

If your getting caught alone againt 2 or 3 Raven 3L, your against a drop. Best bet would be to stay with group....but I know PUGs can be a pain sometimes.

Its not lights, good light pilots do what they should, eat away at your rear till your DEAD. Just need to learn to deal with them.

"You have to improve" Yeah... ********. Lights can circle a heavy, maybe even a medium, faster then it can turn at ANY speed. Even reversing and pivoting isn't enough.

This isn't about skill, it's about dominant strategy, look the term up. Yes, an ***** playing a light will lose. A halfway decent player in a light will kill anyone in a heavy, regardless of their skill.

I have played this franchise since MW 2. MW 2 consequently was a better made game then this unbalanced load. Not worth the zero dollars I paid for it.

Oh, and before someone says it? 340 rated engine, maxed out twisting pilot bonuses. Still not enough.


A Jager with a 340 engine and you can't turn fast enough? Hold on.. a Jager with a 340 engine? why go above 300?

With 300 there isn't a mech in the game that can circle me faster than I can turn.

I'm more wondering how he can fit a 340 in a Jäger, they cap at 315. Cataphracts cap at 340.

Lights are destroying the game. The titel alone tell me all.
Its not the lights, its you.

When i get one shot by PPC boats or AC40 Jaegers, it tell me: its all fine. They are able to hit me, it was my fault to run in their front.
If i could run around and dont have to worry, because they cant hit me at all like it was before the hitbox fix, this would be broken.

Right now the lights are really well balanced. If you let them come to close to you, and if you are to stupid to turn around to see them, its your problem. And not the games fault.
In the last matches i saw some heavy and assault pilots who were just plain to stupid (or unexperienced) to noticed that they had a light in their back. They didnt turn correct and got killed.
Just because you are piloting a big mech, does not mean no one can harm you. Just have someone watch your back. Because good light pilots are still dangerous to you.

I hope they put armor back to the normal 1x when they reintroduce collisions.

One-hit-deathwarrior Online? Look at the alpha damage man - 1x armor will never work in a game with pinpoint aiming.
