No. Either quit the match and take the loss or fight.

I've never understood people who give up or are only concerned with the Win. Without CW, the only reason to really play this game is to practice. You have to view every match as a practice round. Experiment. Have fun with it.

About to be destroyed? Then practice soaking damage and try to pull your attacker to your team mates before you die.

Your team already down by 4 or 5 kills? Then practice your hit and run and snipe attacks. See how long you can survive (while fighting, that is)

It's just a game. Play it.

Can we have a mercy rule in skirmish mode. I have been playing this game since closed and I have never seen a team come back from being down 5 kills.

I have.

Can the match just automatically end when one team falls behind by five kills? It almost fits the idea of a skirmish. If you like the idea bump it so the guys at pgi can see it.

I watched two mechs kill 6 a few days ago at the end of a game to win.

I've been in a match were we were down four or five mechs, rallied in a solid position and laid an ambush that proceeded to destroy the other team.

There is no mercy. There is only increasingly stringent reasons to try harder.

I've won a match where we started with 4 discos.

why? No thanks. It serves no purpose than to screw over half a team. If you don't want to fight it out to the last mech, choose a different mode.

Once I was left alone against 5 enemy mechs and still managed to pull out a win. The last 4 I fought with one leg blown off. Obviously, they sucked at working together, but still, it's not over until it's over.

yup, well the Pearl Harbor bit, the rest was taken from a great review of the 3 latest Star Wars movies by red letter media.
