ahh ok, so yet again a tournament for single players, not teams...No, thank you. I am playing this to compete with my friends against other groups of players, not random flash mobs...

And yet you and your friends drop regularly against random flash mobs....

oh, wait, you "compete" in the 8v8 queue?? My bad <snirk>

I'll skip this one, and all of them that promote high damage builds.



lulz what kind of tournament do you want, the one that promotes baddies doing 100 damage and 0 kills?

i am not saying PGI's tournaments are good by any means and not exploited, but that statement is just yeah..... everyone is a winner, lets all get a "participation" trophy....

Cockpit shots for kills is frowned upon, doing the least amount of damage for a clean kill is bad.

Is the ranking page going through the required not updating phase that happens every tournament now?

Can't wait to kill your Streak Cat while outranging your BAP with my Raven :rolleyes:


I will salute you a game well played if you managed to do that. :rolleyes:


Too many Light pilots instead chose to whine in the forums instead.

Played one game in each category I can (don't own any Jagermechs or Quickdraws, yet) just to see how many people have opted in and also played in each weight class ... as of now, these are my rankings after one game:

As of: .....22 Jun.............23 Jun
.......GMT: 0400, 0715, 1500...0100, 1030, 2045, End
Light: ......507...590...756...1024..1187..1361..1509
Medium: .....455...538...712....992..1145..1305..1469
Cataphract: .509...597...799...1050..1169..1299..1383
Catapult: ...395...450...589....783...905..1000..1089
Dragon: .....240...265...324....434...472...508...553
Assault: ....826...969..1269...1714..1965.....*

I'll check in every now and then to update ... I know some people are just trying to figure out where they fall in the overall "how good/bad am I, really" scheme of things.

I don't plan on participating any more than this, but if I do, I'll note as such on future updates.

Edit; Original Post: 0400 GMT, 22 Jun ... 1st Update: 0715 GMT, 22 Jun ... 2nd update 1500 GMT, 22 Jun ... 3rd Update: 0100 GMT, 23 Jun ... 4th Update: 1030 GMT, 23 Jun ... 5th Update: 2045 GMT, 23 Jun
* Note: Started grinding Highlanders last night, so no more updates on Assault.
Final Update: Congrats to the winners ... I hope some of you found this useful.

Its only a test for 1hit- alpha builds.

Like Kaffee Angst play in Highlander 3 plc 1 gauss vor a hunch with 8 m laser.

You need talent for sure... But it only shows the broken system oft boating pinpoint weapons.

My Highlander HGN-732 build: 3x PPC/1x Gauss isn't going to be affected by the coming changes to "alpha" builds - no additional heat penalties.

For the Medium class I'm using a Centurion CN9-A (3x SRM 4/2x Medium Laser) and a Centurion CN9-D (2x SRM 6/2x Medium Laser). Both styles of gameplay being used, brawling/sniping. SRM's in the current state are far from powerful.

It doesn't matter, I could use LRM's and it'd make no difference, but I prefer to do the aiming myself.

You know the game is in a sad state when as a day1 CBT player I only recognize Kaffeangst and Rippthrough on the leaderboards.

No more tournaments for me. I already wasted enough of my time dropping solo while I could have played with some friends.

And please, don't tell me to syncdrop like a loser to cheat the game :D .

Amen... I've dropped with the light leaders of Banana and Peef quite a few times today and seen Desist in his dragon, and quite a few other high rank players. Even Soy at some points. You know you're doing well if you're consistently seeing various leaderboard players.
