My whine is, I get a hard-on everytime I kill a mech. It was getting uncomfortable, so now I always have to play nude.

Actually, I can relate to this.

Because I get kills frequently it has increased my stamina from 2 minutes to 35 minutes.

Great Post. 5 stars.

Careful there Paco... even real mechwarriors don't go totally nude. They tend to burn their ding ding when they get like that and pass out from heat exhaustion.

[Ustarish]

thats why you need to be drunk and naked.

OMG just looked at my hard drive!!! just started to record games about a month a go. yes i know the files are large, but i went from 27% of a TB to almost 80%!!! i guess it is time to cut out the vids that make me look bad. after i get rid of 99% of the vids i will be back to normal.

I shot the arm off of a team mate who was quite literally tangoing with an enemy.

I and at least two other people would have had clear shots at this single enemy, but this Hunchback would not stop rubbing noses with this Jager.

So I blew this Hunchback's arm off and got the kill after watching these two relive their prom years for a good 20 seconds.

My whine is this: your team appears on your minimap. If all the triangles are pointed at you, possibly you are in the way. Practice situational awareness. Dipstick.

Well it's hard to articulate my whine. It's parts of many things really but it came to a head yesterday.......

Yesterday they failed at 3/3/3/3 AGAIN. For around 8 games, I had fair matches. there was balance. Not once did I feel the odds were unfair. I enjoyed playing very much. Then I read this morning, it has been removed again.
So back to 8+ heavies on most teams or the 6+assault derp teams....
I was so disheartened.

Lately a lot of my friends have stopped playing. For many reasons, mostly burnout. Back in october of last year I joined a wonderful unit-full of awesome people. I've slowly watched these awesome people leave, jaded at PGI's failure to deliver.
Many have left due to:
Gross weight mis-matches. Facing derp teams of assaults+heavies.
The AWFUL meta hugging of the playerbase. (use and abuse and never mind what happens to the playerbase as a result-WINZ R EVERYTHINGZ)
The near constant spam of arty and airstrikes, nearly every game.
Shoddy hitboxes on certain mechs.
Certain weapons recieving CRAZY nerfs.
No community warfare-STILL. Yet we still keep getting new mechs.....
The clans-yet more new mechs for crazy prices and still no CW to give them context, plus STILL no concrete details for these mechs a month from release....
The latest Lrm buff and it's effect on gameplay in PUGS + the insane defence of them.
The pointlessness of medium mechs.....
And finally, the insane camping and timidity of the playerbase.

I have not been able to get any of the people I got to try out the game to stay. NONE OF THEM AT ALL.

So to sum it all up:

Nuff said.

Sad to see you leave,but can't disagree on nearly anything in that post. I am almost at a point of complete burnout (mostly meta related) as well.

You know its a bad sign if I have been waiting on a hero treb for months and am no longer excited when it comes.

As soon as the hotfix comes in I'll be happy to oblige.

[Ustarish]

And one of them is me. I was also rather patiently for a good matchmaker so I could try out some smaller mechs than my 4X Cataphract facerape machine so I played the Ravens for while then bought a Trebuchet and loaded it up with the weapons to make it versatile. Obviously, since I had to face mostly heavies and assaults (at least half a team of them), it was NOT FUN. At least not with 3/3/3/3 not working. Basically, as kamiko said, mechs in the 40-60 ton range are completely useless so I uninstalled the game and plan on not playing it for at least until it gets balanced. As for my opinion on PGI, it's the same as my opinion on politicians.

My whine is that people are whining about LRMs. I mean good LORD, people!!! Put on your big boy pants and learn to adapt!

Come on Dawg. Everybody knows that Big Boys pants do not fit over a pair of Bunched up panties. LOL

I think I saw that Lance on Alpine just 2 days ago. 3 stayed in the base. We lost that one.

[jper4]

think i earned my "learn to aim" achievement today. in alpine, match winding down, our side winning, people are chasing a hunchy as one of the last couple left on the other side so it's pretty beat up but everything's still attached.. i'm in a 4SP, come up to it and alpha my 5ML and SRM4 at it and see

"Component destruction"
"Component destruction"
"Component destruction"
"Component destruction"
"Component destruction"

i'm looking at the screen for a second trying to figure out what doesn;t look right then i realize.

IT'S STILL ALIVE!

so apparently i took off both STs, with both arms and a leg but didn;t kill it (i think a locust sneezed on it and it died seconds later or something). i mean i know i'm on a bit of a kill slump the past couple weeks but toss me a bone hit registration willya?

[Kjudoon]

LOL... Head, CT and one leg survived. Gotta love it. I've done a 6 componant kill only once. It's hillarious to watch them evaporate into legos.

I think that it pops that up when you destroy something like a HS or a weapon, as well as actual parts, but cannot say for 100% surety right now.

Actually I have tested and it does not.
