Now i don't even know how i did this, but its my highest damage of all time and highest match score of all time. The best part is, my printscreen button didn't want to work so i had to snap the picture with my cell phone. Its a bit blurry but it reads a match score of 159, 7 kills, 4 assists, and 1185 damage. Check this out guys:

XL280
5MLS
2AMS-2ton ammo
2 JJ
Endo

It was taking pictures of a blank screen...I had to resort to the cell phone. I was freaking out because after a minute it goes back to mechlab automatically

Try pressing print screen while in full windowed mode, that often makes a difference. That is easy to switch to at the end of the match when not involved in combat.

easiest answer, download MSI afterburner. It's free and you can take screen shots and video without any hassle.

Awesome match though. I have come close in damage, but never quite broke 1000, using my Ember, and the highest kills I have gotten was 6....and they were not on the same match! Congrats!

Screenshots taken in game go directly to a screenshot folder in the MechWarriorOnline game folder.

You will likely have a collection of all the times you have pressed the button and only get a blank screen when trying to paste the image. In reality you have the screenshot you wanted in the folder unknown to you. ;)

I like how someone in your screenshot there got impatient with you in your trying to win, "omg we want to get in other games." How typical.

I get that a lot too. I guarantee if someone starts bitching about the way I'm playing when I'm last man standing, I'm going to do everything I can to make the timer run out.

So shut your pieholes people.

I do exactly the same thing, they've died so they don't get to try and tell me how to play the game.

Im pretty sure it was a jaeger out of ammo, or weaponless and he was stripping him. Thats what they are complaining about. All good though I strip jaegers that run out of ammo also they deserve it for bring AC40s or not enough ammo lol.

I thought that the spiders were bad, Good Job.


I was accosted by too many firestarters last week so this weekend I finally removed the LRMs from the Shadowhawks, Griffons, and Wolverines. My new best friends are large engines and streaks. :angry:

so yeah, you inflated your score. No biggie, if the buffet is open, NOMNOMNOM. Just getting the first 6 kills I would say was impressive enough. Love how the rest of the guys are whining..... mostly because they all pretty much sucked. 4 Assault mechs which combined did less damage than you (295 pts less, lol)? The Victor pretty obviously got 2 kill steals looking at his damage? Hilarious.

won't be shocked if the "new Meta" revolves around Wolfpacks vs Light Hunters.

Haha Bishop welcome to the secret of this thread. a jaeger without ammo, a streak kitty with a juicy red back torso, and a cataphract that didnt know how to aim. Stripped em for all the cbills and damage i could muster. But hey you know what, it's a valid strategy for getting crazy scores in a not so good mech.

Haven't killed 7 yet in my ember but I've got a few 5 kill games, I never used to rate machine guns but in that little beast they slaughter heavies and assaults.
