They left because they could not adapt, nothing more nothing less.

Say the small pulse laser is buffed so that anything it hits instantly dies. In theory, you could "adapt" to the new meta that would produce, but I feel safe in saying you'd think it unreasonable, two-dimensional and unfun. Yes, it's a silly example, but if you think that's unreasonable, then you agree that there's such a thing as a boring meta with one plainly unbalanced playstyle, the only debate is over what changes produce and cure them.

Now you know that's not true, don't act coy.

i for sure as hell would never get within 180 meters of any enemy mech lol,

id probably only run the fastest mechs possible, with the longest range weapons possible.

LOL Well it may actually work better then the current system(Just Joking). Listen if you just want to be an jerk and not contribute please don't bother to post at all.

LOL. Well it may actually work worse than the current system (not joking). Listen if you just want to shut down anyone who has an opinion opposite of yourself, please don't post on the Mechwarrior Forums.

FTFY.

Who in their right mind even wants to adapt to this @%^##????

Heavy/Assault mechs floating around while sniping and popping up and down behind hills looks freakin stupid. We're not even playing mechwarrior any more - we're playing a silly game consisting of a battle between immobile turrets - one being shaped like a phallic *****, the other like an elevator.

This isn't what I had in mind when I started playing this game.

Poptarts and PPCs aren't a big deal alone, it's when there is a full enemy team of jump snipers that things feel broken.
