My best. also, @oldradagast, I think that was me, I remember a match like that
edit: as proof that I am a skilled light pilot, here. This was before Spiders were OP (as seen by 8v8)

This was my highest and strangest game. I understand it is from the 8-players era (during the most recent Assault challenge. Last June?) actually in but it was on a 2 ERPPC+3SRM6 Pretty Baby on a hot map (Tourmaline), so I consider it a really amazing achievement, even more so considering only 2 kills.

my highest in light



and most kills, oddly not so much in damage

1 damage 1 kill.

Society has and will likely always provide a "crutch" to those who need it most.

Where we benefit as a whole is the opportunity to rise beyond the crutches and make for yourself.

Billy - can you go run the broken mech and provide similar video, perchance? Did you watch the video? Just wondering - I've been running the same mech since the day I started.. back then it was "omg another spider, get off our team" because the mech was worthless. I don't do much better now than I did back then. In some games, maybe 200 more damage, but realistically it's not that big of a difference. I still use cover, hit and run, etc. I'm not above cutting in front of an atlas below where he can see me, but it's not like I'm standing there taking lots of fire. My goal is, get this - to shoot people, and not get shot back. I don't run a 5k often, but I run a 5v as a spotter quite frequently. When I run my 5d, I treat it like the 5v for the most part (as in - I'm not here to fight face to face) - I'm here to a) keep lights off my fatter, slower teammates, I'm here to provide intel and LRM locks, and c) draw fire so the enemy is facing me (with their backs to our enemies). I don't run through other mechs, I don't smack into obstacles - that's because I've run every inch of every map, incessantly, in testing grounds. I don't circle strafe unless it's all I can do, and usually its a widening spiral which enables me to gradually make a run for it.

haha no way you're full of poo poo - did you just chest-smack someone and kill them? That happened to me before, one leg gone, other leg cherry red.. and someone came around the corner and ran into me, killing the other leg and kaboom!

PLEASE tell me you have video of it! The kill must have been so ticked off!

[John MatriX82]

Not my highest but notably 7 kills (8vs8) with quite a little bit of damage:


Personal record goes back into wut I don't know (PT is on, so we're talking of the free month given when OB launched), it's 1,567 don't ask me how I don't remember!


I've got a lot of over 1xxx scores but If I remember correctly that 1567 was my personal record so far, can't find my 1480 or 1440 anywhere .

Hi man, sorry no video here. We had some laughter about it, sure.

Meh I've never been using LRMs, highest scores I've ever achieved were with mixed lasers and srms or the old cheesy 4PPC. I should track the original date of that file but I don't find it, this one I posted was a renamed one I had there laying around for "who has the highest score" thingy xD

My highest that I can recall was 1592 with a score of 187.



I've had a round with 9 kills but not nearly as much damage.

[MisterPlanetarian]

Let's be honest if you pull of 1k damage in a game the rest of your team sucked or played really tanky mechs with little firepower.

I pretty much never drop solo so games where someone does 1k damage or more is rare even with 12v12. If I do really well I can pull of 700+ damage with a high damage oriented build in a 4 man drop. But if I play a tankier mech like an Atlas I usually get less damage dealt because I soak fire to keep lancemates alive so they can use their high damage builds more effectively



Most I ever got was 1.15k damage, 6 kills 6 assists which was yesterday running a 4 AC2 Jagermech on Alpine Peaks which is pretty much the ideal map for that build. This was in a 3 man drop. It's also like the fifth time I ever used the AC2 this year. In 8v8 I once got 7 kills and 950 damage on a two man drop running a double Gauss Jagermech.

[kaffeangst]

1000 damage isn't that difficult, especially with 12v12. I have a wide variety of mechs that have broken four digits - some variants, such as my Brawler Atlas D-DC are capable of back-to-back-to-back 1000+ games. It all comes down to this: If you're doing damage, you're doing your job. If the majority of your team does their part, you're likely to win. Winning is better than losing.

[Zerberus]

My best was 1.4ksomething with I think 4 kills and 7 assists or something like that, in my brawler D-DC.... but the story of how it happened is much more epic than any score, and my wingman came out at around 1kish too as a result.

We came out of the tunnel on FC Night, my D-DC and his Jägerbomb. Found a straggler Atlas, engaged him, walked with him to the rest of his team, and then proceeded to laugh harder and harder as they stood around in a circle and watched us take him apart like some sort of BT fight club, lol.

And then we started killing the spectators

But I`d generally rather do zero damage and win than do 200k and lose. Your friends and family won`t care too much that you killed x people if you`re still dead and they still have to bury you, and living has certain other advantages, too.

I once made a hilarious 7kills-1dmg total per match in a 7 med pulse lasers Awesome.

Granted it was back in closed beta and dmg report was broken for pulses but everyone went WTF how did you do that.
Worth to notice that 1 point of dmg was due ramming an enemy mech

[MisterPlanetarian]

This is not aimed at anyone in particular, but:

Inflated damage means that the other players on your and/or the other team underpreformed, period. Or they could have brought bad mechs for the map or something. This is especially the case if you did 1k damage in an Atlas. Really, player skill is using your mech the right way to aid your team as a whole. If you are an Atlas you should not be camping behind the Jagermech letting him draw fire from you. There is no reason your heavy mechs should die before your Atlas DDC, especially if you drop in a team. The DDC is a decent brawler but It's rather underwhelming without 3x SRM6 and an AC20 coupled with a reasonably sized engine.

There are plenty of other mechs that can outpreform it with consistant pinpoint accuracy and damage, especially since the PPC/Gauss nerf. It also tends to be easier to get 1k+ damage with SRM/s and lower calibre ballistic weapons because they spread out damage alot more compared to say a Gauss rifle or an AC20. Ammo explosions also contribute to your damage dealt.

[PropagandaWar]

Here's one I screen shotted right before 12 man. 991 in my SP. I did have a 1330 in it once but that was over 6 months ago. 12 man Ive done 846. Didn't cap it though. Thats medium mechs. Bigger guys I've done more but not much work was involved.

[xengk]

I think there is an influx of new player in the game right now, which makes for easy picking.
Scoring 800+ damage in a PPC AWS 8Q.
I usually get around 400~500 damage in this mech.

[PropagandaWar]

My favorite games are the ones with 200-400 down the board. You know that those fights were the tough ones win or lose.
