I had a recent incident when my whole team abandoned the front line responded to a base cap even though there were 2 of them already close to base. As a result i was left alone and died to the enemy team. I got so angry but i sucked up my rage and came here to ask you what do you do when you get angry ingame?

Also you can post your rage story

i simply lower my expectations down to more realistic levels. if you assume that most players are just about as good at the keyboard as they would be if they were AFK or disco then you will do ok in this game.

I never express rage, because I never lose. Gold plated tier 1 master race reporting in.

No, but I must admit that after 10 consecutive losses, it is time for a break.

The secret to success is to never stop playing.

1. Have a job? Of course you do! MechWarrior is your occupation!
2. Education? Every match is a learning experience (unless you are tier 1 like me).
3. Significant other? Your mech is your closest friend and you love it. You share a special bond between each other, and when you take control of the sticks you become one.
4. Money? 6 figures a game. Read it and weep.

tbh it is just a game, where the idea of actually having "cartoonish" violence I consider actually helps with anger issues without the need to impose on others.

Also worthwhile remembering that others are also equally entitled to play and learn from the process without deciding for them how this is done and possibly more importantly that some of these people will own Fraps also and access to the support button. So I've no intention of exploring what I consider the relatively unneeded realms of anger therapy on this one.

Other than that I would suggest joining a group with co-ordinated drop efforts who may also hopefully have training programmes to help with discipline and communication to achieve such if that is your thing.
