If you look closely, you also see a lot more light HUNTERS right now, like streaktaros or Streakhawks.... That is no coincidence ;)


Yessir! The day those Firestarters came out, I was eating them for breakfast. Took my streaktaro out and got 4 kills the first match :)

I play Commandos and have since they first appeared in closed Beta. I'm really not concerned(use a spell checker, they come built into several web browsers these days) about alpha striking newbies. In fact the vast majority of my builds are considered "bad" by the unofficial Meta Enforcers.

I am definitely not afraid of change. What I am pointing out is that PGI has no incentive to make it easier for people to play their game without giving them SOME money. I will admit I question their pricing structure... but I don't think they give a damn what someone who has invested $0 in the game wants when they don't seem to care what people who have invested $100+ into their game want and I don't see that changing.


Im not bothering with spell checkers. As you can see, I havent even bothered to learn how to quote properly. Its been more than 20 years from my last english class so Im bound to have forgotten a thing or two. English being my second language and not used on daily basis.

We do agree that pgi doesnt seem to care but I do think they are wrong not to. Wont go into detail more here cause it would be too far off topic.

just hit the quote button in the bottom right hand corner of a post. That will give you the timestamp quote that includes the poster's name and such :P

Easy explanation. Light mechs are way too small for
their weight, tho PCI won't admit to it, but for someone
That has to deal with weight vs volume vs size. Also its much easier for lights to shoot big targets as opposed to other lights. I've seen lights totally ignore
A light on the other team just to shoot the big target. Its not going to be much longer before assaults disappear from gameplay unless pgi pulls their head out and resizes lights.

Glued to a 3L :rolleyes:


Like I said in-game, it's perfectly legit for a Locust to hide behind a Raven... :P

Yea, given that it usually only takes a few hits to nail a Light to the wall, vs circle strafing an Assault till he gets dizzy and falls over.....
