I hate it when the maps are always at the opposite strength of my build... whatever mech i choose. Taken my Quickdraw with srm and medpulse and pow, Polar. Taken my gauss Marauder IIc and pow Mining, Taken my brawling Atlas, pow alpine.

Stop it holy cow !



ah you seem to have my matchmaker working for you as well.
brawler build- polar,
aha I say I shall take LRMs- crimson strait, rubelite, forest (our trees shall block out your lrms!), hey i'm on the moon on conquest- everyone congregates at theta
aha I say time to use SRMs- alpine, polar, frozen
hmm I say- I shall use one of my white camo mechs to blend in- terra, grim
fine i'll just go laser vomit then- tourmaline, caustic, terra

gives up and goes back to the urbies.

Anyone else looking forward to when this game turns the server off and shuts the doors for good so we don't have to put up with PGI's lies and shoddy game design anymore..........

....... Matchmaker is there ****!

Matches have been getting worse all week. Had several 12-0 stomps tonight. And lost 6/7 matches... Badly.

No, I'm not looking forward to that. If you hate it that much, cut ties.

Although I haven't touched this game much for a month. More because I can't find a group to play with, or another game is taking up my time. I should probably get back into it and dust off my Huntsmen.

Went on an 18-5 run then suddenly lost 4 in a row... checked names and have a bunch of 30% percentiles... how are these people even in T1 scoring 100 damage a game???

Occasionally, someone's just unlucky. I've had games where I only did 69-odd damage in a quad LBX Dire Wolf because I was the unlucky guy to get NARCed by a Raven and LRMed to death without barely seeing the enemy, immediately following a 1000+ damage game. (Note; This one was a Loooooooooong time ago, FYI. Back at the last LRMageddon in Tier 4.)

Or the time where I went from a 3 Solo Kill game in a Jenner IIC hero to getting killed without even seeing the enemy to a double gauss Sniper. My point is, sometimes people just have a crap game that they get killed/crippled early. Not that people aren't terribad sometimes, of course.

EDIT, hopefully before your wangsty response; I didn't really pay attention to the percentile thing. Then again, I wouldn't anyways, because I don't get butthurt enough by bad teammates to stalk them on the leaderboards like some sort of creep.

Apparently it's the shooter fault, when some lovable type pushes in front of you, just as you let fly with double Gauss.

Personally I think he's lucky he only collected one pellet, the other hit it's target.

Now whether I deserve to be in the Tier I'm in or it's just poor P.S.R design is another matter, but a T2 or even a T3 should know the basics of extending around the back of a mech and not blocking it, and it was a Gauss shot, he must have heard the charge building up..

This isn't so much a rant or a whine, but seriously if this guy shows the same level of awareness crossing the road, he's going to become a statistic.

Then the local news paper will report the tragic death of this happy go lucky family guy, that saved birds that fell out of trees etc etc

When they should be telling folks ,this guy died, because what falls out his butt, was more aware of it's surroundings.

I love when people counter with the argument "You are the only constant in all the losses"

well then, thanks for saying that I'm the one responsible for every win I've had too, since I'm the only constant in all my wins...

Yesterday i had a match where a guy in a Supernova disconnected on purpose because he did not want to play Polar Highlands.
Needless to say we lost this match with an assault missing.

But the moment i facepalmed really hard was as i looked at his mech: It was an LRM boat. He did not want to play his Lurm-assault on Polar. On POLAR!

I could at least understand his motivation to be an a-hole if he were running a brawler. But with lurms on Polar he probably just wanted to troll us which makes him an even bigger a-hole...

People say that in WoT quite a lot. Funny how it only comes from high stat players..if you suggest part of their high stats may be down to getting more than usual good teams or rng....you might as well have poured petrol on their firstborn.

Not really, remember that game you and I were in together this morning? Frozen city domination? I did 1042 and you did 950+? We were the only 2 who broke 500 damage that game.

Just had a game where someone blamed the loss on how i built my Mr. Gargles. There are 11 other mechs on the team and if there is any place to test something other than meta than it's solo QP. I wonder what those guys expect?
