My Whine is the occasional player who announces that the set-up of the PUG team is all wrong. He announces we are all going to lose and then disconnects.
And we lose. Badly.
There is no need to encourage your prophesy by leaving us down one heavy mech.
*******.

People on the "bring back PP thread" STILL arguing that it's about the "principle" and not admitting that it's really about feeling special, and their ego.
I mean, would you really vote no, knowing that other people might suffer a sa result? When the solution will cause no harm to anyone? Seems many think that way....
If the situation were reversed for these people, I'd hazard that the vast majority would disregard that same principle in a flash. Luckily Russ seems to be working on an Is pack to alleviate the situation.

I assume this means that you want a PP pack? If you didn't get it...too bad. Buy the King Crab with the rest of the scrubs!

MINE will have a HUGE c-bill bonus! 'cause I'm a great guy!

Just had a match in group queue,im in five man group,also a 3man and 4man on my team,the other team is a 12man,map is HPG.

We start off by taking the top under the HPG,expecting a 12 man to be agressive and use their obvious advantage of all being on comms to push into us,but they dont,watch an enemy hunchie run underneath and notice alot of seismics underneath as well.Our 3 random groups wait on top for them to push out and hit us from one side,we sit tight while i watch seismic and get ready to yell which side to defend.

But they do nothing.

In teamchat we come to the conclusion they will push us in the last couple of minutes to get kill lead and win this way,we hold tight rdy to defend their push.

Tick tock tick tock,game ends and nothing,seems our 3 randomly put together groups terrified a 12man.

such a satisfying way to spend 15minutes.......

If you are going to be sarcastic, at least try to get your facts right first/understand what I mean.
I already qualify for one........
It's the attitude behind the comments they make I find disgusting-they hide behind a "principle" but it's not that which drives them.

Yeah, I know what you mean concerning the comments.
Conversely, there is, was, the implication that you are paying for an early release and the status symbols it provided.
To "end" the sale and bring it back later serves to diminish the status that was implied with the sale. It's bad business and I don't expect they will follow through with it.
Those who are taunting the people who would like to see it return are twits but remember they did pay (and handsomely) for the right to be self absorbed.

This is where it all goes wrong though, isn't it?
Their "rights" happen to have nearly stepped on other's situations. thankfully, Russ seems to have gotten a good handle on the situation-I can only applaud him for acting on it.
Sadly, there a few forum posters' names that have gone WAY down in my estimation because of their callous and careless comments.

Needed my trusty Ember today when that crazy S.O.B. started shooting at me at work

New Patch is pretty much a deal breaker. No amount of overpriced LRM enhancement module is blandishment enough to soften this betrayal.


I'll be back when mode voting is reversed.

I'm not so sure Assaults should ever be LRM boats.
Catas are good at that. Madcat S can be good at that (as I've discovered... you wouldn't think so, but it's true). But an assault chassis? I wouldn't think the word "tank" would be so lost on MMO gamers, anymore....

You know, for the most part I agree, but every once in awhile, I observe an Atlas or some such that completely defies logic and kicks royal ass at LRM boating.

Saw an Atlas the other day that was dual AC/2, dual ERLL and the rest all LRMS + TAG, and that guy freaking killed it. Almost 1300 damage.

Then again, he only had one kill, and the Red Team stomped us 12-2...sooooooo.

Still.

My whine today...

I go on a one week work trip with no access to MWO, and come back to find I've missed the EXACT sale I've been waiting for...

*Stares wistfully at the KTO-18(C) I've been waiting to replace my beloved KTO-18 with, as well as the 3 mechs that I've been waiting to unlock Woodland Camo on, and the 4 Camo colors I don't yet have that I've been wanting to pick up*

*sigh*

Bright side of things. Nice sale PGI!

People who get upset about base capping or losing on points in conquest-
But don't you DARE accuse them about getting upset about getting out maneuvered

i simply wait for a stare-down content. why? most people are not capable to check flanks or their ass anyway. STARE FORWARD! THE ENEMY MUST COME FROM THERE! (forest colony cave camping with 12 men. while one is already inside spotting....me). team gets spotted by random ecm light. giggity chickentime and lurmspermage!

[Rear Admiral Tier 6]

i like these dire whale noobs,i regularly win staredown contests with them in a dual uac quickdraw

i just love my cheap chinese mouse with double click button

Great first match today. I get the mining collective and have my brawling setup equipped. I find the enemy and all of the sudden no teams mates anywhere near me. Funny how they are right behind you until you find the bad guys. That was the best of it though. Hellslinger on my team three lrm 10's, 2x ppc's, and 3x medium laser. starts shooting the enemy mechs one volley from each of the LRm 10's and than nothing but energy weapons until hes dead. To top that he never moved from were he parked his mech out in the open were he could be easily targeted. Which was par for the course for 9 of the players on my team for this match. Hasn't any of these newbs visited the training grounds and learned to shot on the move. Guess PGI made getting to the training grounds to hard.
