MPBT, maybe. I doubt you ever played the boardgame with responses like this. No one was gonna roll everyone they crossed in that carnage. Strategy played a lot into it, and walking into this thinking you're going to dominate everyone means that when you hit your first bout of focus fire, you will very much be eating your words...and swallowing your pride. Despite my experience in the BattleTech and MechWarrior universe, I have no delusions of being some grand hero. I am truly amped on the idea of teamplay and strategy they have introduced to this.

My lancemates already know they will be sponges for me. I am far too valuable to be the prime target and die first.

Go for it friend ill be waiting unless you want to play me on GameRanger hahahaha

Someone needs to learn some humility... Also boasting is not the way of the "honorable" warrior, actions speak louder than words so before you go acting all badass over a game you have never even played before just think before you type.

I know all about strategy. I developed the majority of strategies for MPBT/MW4 combat that were successful early on. Remember DRGN in Vengeance league on MW4 (since apparently you haven't played MPBT.) Over, and out.

I've been tougher than snot in any game I've ever devoted my time to. Best in MPBT, MW4, EQ, WoW (Gladiator arena.) I'm a good gamer who enjoys it while working and living in the comfort of my loving wife while I can squeeze in time.

Meh, the biggest trash talkers are usually the most underwhelming players.

In the mean time, I've made this for you:

Yes. MPBT was not. We seemed to do quite well there. Next?

Hence the humility part... you can be all you want but going around making an arse of yourself insulting and threatening a community does not make them like you and will probably in turn make them want to just shoot you for your arrogance and annoyance.

My guess is day of launch he spends 150$ and goes "i was jokeing you mad?!" and then procedes to do about as well as everyone else who spent money

[Damocles 1]

people who have time to talk smack in-game generally aren't much use to their teammates and generally spend most of theres time watching their own death cam.

Good for you? However, I'm not royalty - I've always been a combat leader, not political figure. If you could put that in like a Bruce Willis Die Hard type photo that would be AWESOME!

Yes tell me how that goes when your "lancemates" run away from you in your slow, overpowered MW4 style mech, while you get demolished by us inferior pilots, and you rage-quit and go back to CoD... Wait nevermind nobody cares.

Yes.. but MPBT was a game played on AOL in the mid 90's.

Doesn't seem like there'll be a real clean application of the tactics used in a low fidelity game from the 90's, or a 3rd person respawn league in MW4, to MWO.

From what they're showing, it seems like MWO is going to be closer to the planetary FFP NR leagues in MW4. Did you play in any of those?

[TriggerhappySOB]

Ive got this feeling that this is whats going to happen when you actually get in-game...

[hawaiiandude241]

So is The Sniper in the beta or just talking a lot about his abilities while waiting to be accepted?

Did they have unlimited ammo?

No, I'm sorry... you're not coming across as a "combat leader"... I agree you're not royalty though and Bruce Willis would be wholly inappropriate. Right now, I'm picturing you more like this than an action hero:
