For what it is worth, purposefully dropping with Daily Whiners seems to produce better results than randomly bumping into them in match

You've definitely not seen me play.

I need a Mech shaming thread.

"I overheated only a few meters shy of cover getting my pilot blown up by LRMs" kinda stuff with pictures of sad mechs.

I'm discovering shocking people with my anti-all-things-clan attitude is enjoyable to me. It's partcularly smile inducing to hear people gasp in horror when I state flatly the game would be better off with the total removal of all clan content...

...permanently.


Then again, I add, I've wanted it removed since they were introduced in the 1980's.

Yep. Just can't help smiling saying that.

Urbanmech is too fast, the servers can't keep up with it. I have been having a great time teleporting all over the map though, it is exciting to see where I will reappear next.

Who do I have to 'do' to get more than 10 people in CW?

just try and get a team to jump the gate and go defend/attack the enemy BEFORE they can shoot at the generators. Just try it. See how far you get. Why? Because people don't think that's smart. I can't think of why a team wouldn't spend a wave going out there, meeting the enemy on neutral ground and preserve all the turrets and keep the doors closed as long as possible or deplete the enemy wave so much it takes two waves to just get the doors down.

Hehe me and my cohorts have done that so many times. Just watch the confusion and chaos unfold when twelve lights come screaming over the mountain at you BANZAAAIII!
We might lose twelve lights, but they lose 3-4 assaults.......

Make it something other than skirmish/assault booooooorrrrring cheese with maps that actually are bigger to allow for role warfare?

It looks like my favourite The Yen Lo is banned. A guy complained that I hid the whole game (which I didn't, it's called maximizing position) taking pot shots, WTF did he expect? That I should stand up and snipe with 351 m range?

you do know if you don't play the JA's favorite way you are a noob?

YLW is a great mech if you play it right, which it sound like you do. nothing like poping out and saying Hello with an AC20 to the back

Seriously why is this game so unreliable.

I've been getting connection issues of late and now can't play CW at all the game just freeze's up. Pug games are mostly ok but my ping has gone up 143% but with tukayid coming up i'm now useless to my unit and restricted to public queue.

So glad i've long banned myself from giving them any more money.

It may be my PC or ISP though but i've no idea what's actually wrong with it or how to fix it.

Faced only 1 team in CW today that wasn't 100% Stalker4N/Thunderbolt5SS/Firestarter-S/Dragon-1N/Grid Iron/etc. that literally just bunched up and zerged around spamming consumables the whole match.

There's gotta be alot coming in the next 4 months before steam launch that I'm not seeing...if you thought CW population died off after the last event, I hate to see what's gonna happen after this one.

[Bilbo]

I'm so jaded that when I asked in chat what the ptt button was and someone answered I didn't even believe them. I'm also too lazy to check the key mapping myself

I am so cbill starved that I have started swapping erllas and mpl's around from build to build instead of buying new ones.

i had to sell off a good portion of my single heat sinks. IIRC it was around 150 so i am now down to 50 or so....

might be time to pull out the Boars Head and farm some cbill. got my eye on the hill climb mod but need a bunch of cbills

I could probably afford to offload some shs and maybe some ml's. I spent all my money kitting one Urbie. I have been having fun with him but he hasn't been the greatest cbill farmer

[Catra Lanis]

So, River City Night. I am last man standing at which point I retreat to the base hoping that the turrets will kill at least one of the last three enemies. At this point I am banged up so one more hit and I am done for. One player does not like this and start berating me for not going to my doom and finally he reports my position. They probably know it, at least to some extent but it is still team treason.

After finding out the zeuss is a remarkable mech (bit hit and miss on the version with 3 missile points in the right arm - i had to LRM that thing...i feel dirty for it too) and having a blast in it, i decided to try the ugly as sin grasshopper. All was exceptionally awesome until i got to the champion variant.

My whine, 6 low energy hardpoints on a 70 ton mech is kinda lame, i cannot make this thing work

With the Battle of Tukayyid coming up I find myself paying the techs to paint my mechs ComStar white. Now I find out there is a shortage of titanium white!!! OMG hoarders and profiteers are keeping me from enjoying the Battle of Tukayyid!! I have a few drums of light gray and some dirty white I guess I can do that, if I have to.
