ECM Atlas sneaks around outside of map with an AC20, AC2 and a LL, avoiding the brawl. His teammates force a battle with the opposition while he pinpricks with his AC2 and LL, and then when all of them but one are dead, he walks around and cherrypicks kills on incredibly damaged mechs.

Hey, it worked, he won!

That said, I wish he'd have kept the final screen in the vid to show how much (or how little) damage he actually did compared to his teammates, who were kind enough to strip all that armor for him.

Walice I think we all overreacted, I just saw you're pretty new to the game so sorry for jumping on you.
Welcome to the game! You'll see over time that contributing to the TEAM effort is valued much more highly than your KDR. If you want to enhance the experience, make sure you get teamspeak 3 and head over to the NGNG or comstar teamspeak servers!

What? I commented that it obviously worked! That was my nod to 'tactic well employed.' It worked because he mostly got ignored by the other side/is a ninja, but it DID work.

IMHO, this thread should eventually make its way to the Barracks.

There are people other than you that posted.

I didn't... When you post a bragging thread to a "Gameplay Balance" area of a forum and NOT as an example of how it is or is not balanced you deserve to be ridiculed especially when such a video is almost a documentary on how to NOT play a team game. Did you like the humble, "I Rule!" he typed into general chat at the end?

Yeah, but I also want to keep the community accepting of noobs. Though I've *also* seen lots of experienced players starting new accounts for noob stomping purposes too. I figured I'd err on the side of caution to avoid chasing someone off the game. Good or bad, we need every player we can get.

Like Ghost Badger said, hanging back out of the fight then cherry picking kills from your teammates who did 95% of the damage is nothing impressive.

A friend of mine had 10 kills in one match and another friend did 1485 damage. Neither of them felt the need to make a thread about it.

You can pause the video, you know...

That said, Greyfoxx did 846 with 3/6 (Jenner), he did 734 damage with 7/5 (SDR-5D) and then the next top damager is on the other team with 731, 4/6 (HGN-733). There's 3 guys in his team that scored 300+ damage, everyone else did sub-200.

Yeah, he kind of deserved quite a few kills for that damage.

Thanks Scrat - I think he was picking on the OP, not me
I need to run with foxx again, we were a serious wrecking crew.

In Open Beta Before the 12vs12 Patch I had the perfect game.

Wait... this is a video. There is a forum for this.

Did it drive anyone else crazy that he has his AC20 and ERLL in the same firing group?

Probably why he thinks 7 kills is impressive too

[Alistair Winter]

I like how people first got upset with the thread starter, then started arguing about the right way to sanction his foolishness, as if we're all his step parents trying to figure out how to raise the boy.

"Don't yell at him! He had good intentions!"
"The lad needs to learn consequences. We should ridicule him!"
"No, remember, his teacher said we should try to reward positive behavior and ignore negative behavior. Positive reinforcement, remember?"
"You're spoiling the boy! You want him to grow up bragging about all his accomplishments? He's going to go around flaunting his tournament rankings, like your brother"
