i guess voip is not for me as an x soldier and x truck driver and a couple of other x's my language is a bit non pc to say the least, but on coms you should be keeping to what is happening not useless chatter unlike in game chat which has a few games were i wonder about the player doing the typing.. reflecting on the chat roll maybe voip is not a good idea

voip in pug matches should definately be confined to calling targets and other tactical info (as former military, who was a communcation specialist, i know all about that)

in group drops, a little more playful banter is allowable...due to the groups familiarity with each other

Heh, I'm at 10 games out of 30...

Translation: Not sure if the 1:2 point:no point ratio gets any better.

Sub-translation: I guess I only need 60 more games to complete the challenge... ;)

I am 2 for 4 so I have you beat ;) I am only aiming for premium time though my weekends are too busy for grinding out 100 matches (or even 60 if the mech sprites smiled on me and I kept a 1:1 ratio)

This challenge I am sitting out on.
I already have a fully mastered CTF-3D (C...bill version)

Add to that how badly I have been playing this week - and it just hasn't been worth

Wherein there's "team play" and "tourney play", I'll admit that yesterday's several hours of 1:7 qualifier ratio had finally turned me towards the selfish latter. And worst of it, so long as I didn't get too trash about it, it worked! Argh!

So here I am to whine about myself.

...and hopefully remind to play a bit more normal after being elsewhere today.
...before I return tomorrow. Because I only need 9 more qualifiers. So I may as well, right? No! Well,maybe. Argh!

People who make big melodramatic posts about how they're leaving or uninstalling MWO and then show up a few days later to complain about the game.
They ruin the forums for the rest of us.

:::Looking at the stories of horrifying match results:::

I think I'm going to play DCUO for the weekend guys. We'll see but I'm pretty sure that's what I'll do.

At least I'm still having fun with it, in spite of the insanity.

You just have to remember to not remember it. ;)

16 games 4 points. looks to be a trend...

on the bright side i did get a couple of games with some very aggressive assaults. nothing puts fear in the red team like 3 atlases showing up and not backing off. well until we get shot up, but it is fun to see them back up for a few minutes. :D

Canyon Network. Starts out really well...we get a quick kill on an ECM Uller. Then two more quick kills...

And then...half the team goes one way chasing a Thunderbolt, and the other half goes full throttle at the lance near the Red base.

I comment "Too spread out".

We were up 4-1...we lost 12 -7.

Yup. Tunnel vision man. Tunnel vision.

Well, I know its time to quit for the game when I start wanting badly to swear at my team-mates for doing what pugs do -- lick windows and suck gear-shifts.

Maybe PGI can get rid of the kills AND assists and make it kills OR assists... In the pug-verse it just spawns stupidity


I smashed my mouse once. Because it didnt responded on time. Old HP mouse.
Bought a new one.

Then it's time to take a break when you smash a old HP mouse with a little ball in it.

there must be balance between clan and IS tech. quirks are fixing that....but id rather see a nerfening instead of making IS better.
NERF EVERYTHING!!! nerf it again and again till you feel like nerf herders!

A very long string of extremely timid, scared teams that won't fight. Makes playing not much fun.
