how do you "farm" money in a locust? running out and try to tag any enemy with your little lazors before you die? What does it give you, 50k?

Mostly by staying alive and taking part in the fight. Its not hard if you know how to judge the situation. When in doubt, run.

Saviour kills are where the big money is at. You can get those when a mech dies, you've shot that mech in the last 30 seconds and that mech has shot a team mate with critical damage. If you use a ER large laser it is pretty easy to pick those on and do some good damage. Aside from that, spotting and assists are nice income sources.

So cant you farm atm? You just have to switch mechs. If ya wanna farm by macros just choose one of the trials after another.

Btw its not true what ya saying. War thunder doesnt have a block system. You just have to repair ya plain, thats it.

So i wouldnt mind if i would have to repair my mech to get early access to it. Let us say 20-30k cbills. Then the argue with preventing ppl from farming wouldnt make sence at all.

Actually, War Thunder does have a blocking system. If you decide not to pay for repair costs, the plane will heal itself free of charge...eventually. The timer seems to be longer for the higher tier planes, but the low tier ones seem to be around 7-15 minutes.

Or you can repair, and have it back immediately. But that is a blocking feature, they just give you a pay way to circumvent it.

Nah, if you start the game as a newbee, even auto repair is on, so it will be repaired automaticly. You dont even notice it until you off the auto repair.

I think ppl didnt read the post above : Its Annoying to wait for your mech if ya especially skilling a variant. You guys dont need to be Arrogant, if you are even not able to read the post above.

So you tell me to stop dieing fast. Cmon are you that ********? Sometimes all ya teammates are dead but the spider in your team and it takes like 5 Minutes until it dies.. Sometimes you moove bad and you die, sometimes you get suprized, and your dead. Sometimes lucky arti headshot, sometimes 2 dual ac20 infront of you and you are dead, . and so on.


So stop telling me to stop whine or other bla bla senceless stuff.

This community is really special: If you comlplain about something annoying you get called Whiner. Why is there a Forum then if you are not allowed to complain? I mean cmon, i know- gamers and especially mwo community are not the smartest persons on planet earth but the statements above dont make sence at all.

Cautionary note: You'll get better quality responses if you spell check your posts prior to clicking "Post". You're only going to get people trying to troll you otherwise.

It is up to *you* to manage your own expectations. If you do drop after drop just grinding the same mech, then yes, you will get frustrated. It will get tedious. Try to mix it up, break up the monotony a little bit. Additionally, if you focused more on learning to pilot a mech than grinding it out as quickly as possible, you might not die so much. I doubt you'll read this, but if you do, good luck, don't focus so much on the grind, and if you don't want to switch mechs, find a secondary distraction while you're waiting (mine is virtualnes.com ). I've mastered most of my 84 mechs at this point and the only way I made it through is by refusing to focus on the grind. I'll play a mech on and off for a week or two before I even look at accumulated XP. Focusing on the grind almost lead to me uninstalling the game. Again, manage your own expectations, and sometimes it's good to step back and go play something else for a while. Humblebundles are good for that, too. Keep killing, mechwarrior!

what are you defending there? Do you have an advantage when your mech is blocked? Either this is the Inet boy- who cares about grammar.

Well about the only thing you've said that makes...

Is the suggestion that maybe premium time gets your mech back instantly. You should try to type up a suggestion for that, and try to make it sound like it's written by a grown up, and post it in the "Feature Suggestion" section.

Maybe someone at PGI will look at it then.

Pgi this mech blocking is a No Go.

It's a mechanism to stop dinks from dropping on maps they don't like, after they lose, etc. as well as stopping people from farming by joining and quitting and launching match after match.

It's not gonna change nor should it so get over it!

And have a nice day!

wow this community can be so toxic!

OP does have a point it is really annoying sometimes. A lot of times I'm running in my light sniper mechs and I'm the last one left. The pressure to die is unreal as everyone is waiting to get their mech back, some people can be really rude when you are legitimately trying to pull off the win for the team trying to play the mech in the best way possible. I really wish in this case they could just get their mech back, leave and stop griefing those that are left.

Or another situation where the current system is not the best. A lot of stuff doesn't work in the testing grounds. I often have to run several matches of trial and error to try to get the best out of my machine which I may not be all that familiar with. Sometimes I die early just trying to get used to a new mech. Waiting 10 mins just to continue working on my mech - or for parts off that mech to put in another is incredibly frustrating in cases like this. It was even more annoying when I just started playing and only had 1 mech!!

Exactly, if ya either testing a new build, you cant change the loudout for minutes and minutes. Ikr the Community can be really "toxic"

1. I'm not defending anything- I have no need to defend. Perhaps you meant "what point am I arguing"? I was simply offering some advice to prevent you from driving yourself nuts. It's clearly getting to you as evidenced by the original post. Instead of trying to get PGI to change something that isn't going to be changed (akin to arguing with a rock to stop being a rock) you could simply manage expectations accordingly. Adapt and overcome.
2. A few people whom care about grammar are known as "intelligent people" and "employers". Another group is likely known as "anyone capable of influencing change".

Its a abnixious rock and its clearly not necessary to stay in "our way". You act like complety destriuctive and arrogant with your attitude by defending something annoying, and its annying for yourself either ("[color=#959595]Focusing on the grind almost lead to me uninstalling the game") Btw the block mechanism never made me uninstalll the game, You might hate it even more than i do.[/color]

1. Giving advices when no one asked for you silly advices
2. Beeing arrogant and destructive
3. You already proofed how annoying the block mechanism is, because we all want to max out the skills on new mech and we all wanna check out new loudouts. ("Focusing on the grind almost lead to me uninstalling the game.")[/color]
4. Giving advices before you even know how i do play.
5. Why to the hell should you defend a rock beeing in our way? it would be much better for "almost every player if your mech wouldnt be blocked(befor you foo´s argue again that farmers would rise- i already suggested a small repair bill in that case)
6. You do act as if iam uneducated without knowing who iam and where i live. (oh boy how many languages do you speak?- one? Silly U.S. kid. English isnt my native language so stfu ´- I do speak 4 Languages)

I personally never disconnect until a match has concluded, even if I die. I figure by spectating until the match ends not only do I get to see the breakdown of how I did in the match but I also get to learn builds and strategies by watching other players. The only time I've had this whole 'waiting for a mech' thing be a problem is when I've lost connection to the servers in the middle of a match.
