Same here. Nice to see the mods/devs playing. Watch out for Big Daddy Alpha. He's dangerous.


He's IGP correct? I blew off his ST yesterday but he (wisely) cleared my guns shortly thereafter. Banshee don't do chases.

This might have just become my favorite spot to rant on the entire interwebs. So I'm playing a canyon network conquest and the majority of my team moves to kappa. We encounter six enemy mechs and slowly tear them apart only to find that we've been outcapped. I'm in my 114kph trebuchet and run to get caps. The remaining four enemy mechs are now at gamma and my team rushes to get them. As I run up I see two of my "allies" in jagermechs hiding behind a hill. Their armor is almost untouched. We swarm the enemy and lose by cap. I bellow at the two jagers who were afraid to scratch their digital kdr. Normally this would be the end of the story. No. Instead my next drop I see one of the jager pilots. I go off on him again, hoping to irritate him enough to, idk, attack this game. Instead he dies with 78 damage done(meta AC20 jager ftw!) and decides to grief me, giving away my position to the enemy and calling me all sorts of fun names. He types non stop as our team gets whittled down to three remaining mechs. I've lost all my weapons and start bodyshielding for the remaining assault mech who only has one med laser left. We slowly make our way to the enemy base and take it, winning 11-9, one of the most harrowing games I've played in MWO. This guy is still typing away that I'm a loser, etc. He can take his grief and eat it, that was the best game I've seen since MW4 a decade ago. If that @#$@#$@#$ hadn't been there we probably would have routed 12-2 or something, so ty griefer!


A lot of players seem to think adding b***hness is gonna help their game. Had a game in river city night where it took five minutes before my team realized there weren't any turrets to hide behind and actually pushed. Luckily the reds hadn't noticed yet.

That moment when pale, bitter, cynicism prevents you from posting something constructive because it all does not matter anyways and your only thought is how many marshmallows you can roast while watching it all burn...

I have hopes for A/D.... but fully expect the defending team to wander off... frequently - resulting in either massive changes to the mode....
Or it being played like the 3 modes we already have.


I don't I have a feeling it will be like WoT's Attack Defend, which was terrible.

I think it will be like assault is now where the team that's aggressive side usually loses to the base campers, backed up by turrets, only in this case its decided who is going to be the base campers.

My whine is people believing this. It is a part of the problem of why P.U.G.s never push and end up sitting still and letting the enemy win.

PS. I don't mean this as a personal insult,I'm just against the strategy of base camping.

I was just in a match where my alpha lance was sitting in the tunnel and spamming nonsense about godzilla in the chat. They singlehandedly caused us to lose and then said "House of spuds now recriuting @ houseofspuds.com" Never seen a premade do that before.

BTW I searched the forums and nothing came up for "house of spuds".

so am I and sometimes the aggressive team does win, on river city you need to go upper not across the water, but it generally the reason why I was against turrets in the first place, and completely against them on small maps

You are not the trash, but the Trashforged!
Pound on and compact trash enough and you get something akin to a diamond!



On that note - daily whine?
Taxes and politics - not directly related to the game, but keeping me from playing as much as I used to (which was still not as much as I wanted to)

Weekends are here again and with that comes all the weekend warriors without the barest rudimentary understanding of strategy, where the only thing they know is charge in and shoot like they learnt in COD.

Have a good weekend everyone

Blobs.
Just played 7 games, 7 straight losses. 6 out of 7 team blobbed up, refused to engage or move...got surrounded then murdered. The heavy and assault mechs just would not move and engage. All of the were "sniping" or spamming lrms.

Last game, enemy team has 10 Assault mechs. Our heaviest mech was a Catapault A1 with JUST 4 lrm 10's on it. No close combat weapons at all........
I managed to wipe out 140 tons of the enemy for my Centurion (managed to maul a DDC up proper-proud of that:P) my team just rolled by the sheer mass of the enemy team.

Today I mostly stood there, wondering what to do-I felt so frustrated and had so little fun. So many cowardly, timid players on during the day.

@ Kamiko, we had a bit of that last night too, really blob groups...

One of my last matches last night was really amusing. We were in a 4 man, on a conquest match, got caught pinned in at Kappa, our lance split about to deal with either end. Had some guy abusing us 'Dracs' for bad team play, we still end up winning the match by a couple of mechs.

When we get to end screen said whiney sod had 20 points of damage, and our lance had held up what we needed to do to win.

A player who I have met twice this past week. Both times screaming at the team for being useless. Both times he/she was in their Jaeger DD. Both time he/she did sub 100 damage.
First time, 52 damage.
Second time 26 damage.

Both games he/she was calling me a noob and useless etc. I even screenshotted their "performance" for posterity:P

There are websites with free lessons on that out there - taking some of them myself.
