That is 2 pre-made teams. You think match maker is so bad that it would actually put 12 Atlai on the same team?

EDIT: NVM, found a couple.

I'm not really seeing the problem. Adapting to whatever the enemies strategy is at any given time is the sign of a good pilot, and a sound battle plan.

That's a 12v12, not a PUG match.

but the guys at PGI claim it to be the "top tier Assault Mech"

so we can quickly see balance is out the window

This was us just trying a 1200 ton drop deck. I normally play a medium mech but this was a fun diversion.

:P :P

It sickens me that there are people who run this sort of team. What is MWO coming to?

No no, it's much easier to blame any and everything without any context. Let me post a screenshot of a premade and try to pass it off as the "typical pug game" and hope noone has the sense to call me on it.

lol and this is why they do it.

it as a 12v12 with both teams completely being premade. This is not a typical random matchup. This is exactly what happens and what someone will try to slant as a reason something is broken, opo, needs to be fixed, etc. In other words they want people to believe that this is typically the average match.

No, just someone trying to propagate and fear monger new players and hoping that this helps strengthen some cause, probably to do with merfing teams because they're so "OP", but this one is versatile, it could easily go in one of the "too many assaults", atlas are op, MM in general, tonnage restrictions, but I'm betting some pugstomp slander personally

Don't worry, we are ready to play at lower tonnages. As I mentioned (as a person in the above drop) I prefer to play medium mechs. This is just a change for fun.
