friendly fire.... soo much friendly fire today... do people not realize their mechs can damage their own teammates? do they not care?

[Alienized]

the only thing i will never forget is the extreme stupidity of this gaming community. always running never using their brain

Lets talk about cherry red CTs...

Why is it that if my CT is red, the next weapons fire that comes even remotely close to me kills me, but if I'm shooting at an enemy with a cherry red CT, I can put 3 or 4 alphas into it and nothing happens??

yeah, just had a drop where my team got rolled 3-12.. then one of our LRM Dire Wolves that hid in the back complains that teams with the most ECM always win...

smh

stealth afking. had a back and forth match in forest collony, we start out down 1-3, then tie it a 4, go down 4-5 (believ that was me after futilely trying to warn about the 4 mechs coming via tunnel), come back to tie at 5-5, go down 5-6, come back to take a 9-7 lead then i notice something. only two of our mechs seem to be fighting (third guy died as soon as i got to him). where are the other two at? specating and one of our mechs run by our base where two pristine mechs are standing side by side (ok one was 90%) unmoving as their three moving mechs take out our last two for a 9-10

But WAIT! suddenly life stirs from the depths it's alive! it's al...why is the tbolt lrming from 100m, and not hitting R on the guy he's shooting, he's standing still hit him with those MLs. as he backs way to get nearly lrm cored (other guy died offscreen still afk) himself he manages to kill one as he finally gets in rang. manages to hit the panther standing right in front of him removing components and since it was held together by scotch tape at that point he dies too. then tbolt gets picked apart by the last guy and they win 12-11.

normally i love 12-11 matches but not when it could have been a comfortable win had we not been fighting 10-12 the whole time. i'm no clanner dammit!

Finally got couple of decent games in in my heavy metal.Still waiting the leaderboard to update.

Been having some awful luck with teams today.Either A: my team completely stomps the enemy team and i get barely shots off or B: my team gets hopelessly rolled within 2-3 minutes in the match.Now that its american prime time its mostly A,since there are more casual players with decent skill levels in us side of the pond,here in europe it seems on/off-style mainly.

getting really tired of the piss poor hit reg. put 200 damage into the back of a YLW and it still had armor everywhere. Put 150 damage to the back of a raven, and it still had armor everywhere...

My favorite experience with HSR being bad, actually happened last night. I decided to run my 9xERPPC DWF for giggles. Landed a full alpha into a Shadowhawk's CT. I kid you not 3 or so of those PPCs didn't count. Cuz he kept on walking. When that same alpha will one shot an Atlas' side torso, or fully kill it from behind.

I see that, due to the completely OP nature of the TDK, it has been nerfed by adding random uncontrollable screen shake when your arms are unlocked. But that's ok it isn't like the arms do anything special anyway (insert bitter angry face). Also, my lasers do not appear to do any damage (also barely a problem on the TDK). I had a round where I chased down and killed a Jäger and a thunderbolt, plus many assists ...damage=180. Also, I have failed to break 300 damage in any rounds this weekend, which is abnormal. I am a little relieved that a lot of you are having hitreg problems too, I was starting loose faith in my piloting abilities.

Ps. If you don't pick up on sarcasm well, this post is full of it

180 sounds about the right amount of damage you'd need to do to kill about 3 mechs.

'Tis true, it just "felt" like a better game. I wouldn't have noticed it so much if ALL of my rounds hadn't been low damage rounds This weekend. maybe I am just too efficient, I need to start spraying my lasers all over the mech instead of aiming maybe

hey I just did a 4 kill and only got 247 damage
The first kill was very cheesy poking at the tunnel entrance I just though hell to this barged through into the tunnel alpha'd, my HM, got a kill thought crap i'm facing another 3 but they ran away..chased after them, killing turrets shooting at anything that was poking somehow ended up in their base, having smoked most the turrets, going after a hellbringer, it ran I jump down after it into crap 8 mechs ! damn I hate ECM some days, right in front of a direwolf. spinning turned jumping thinking crap crap XL XL, i'm gona die, but I kept hearing music, and yes it was MINE !

seems for once a PUG pushed and shot into the backs while they tried to finish off the dumb sitting duck ( yup that's me btw ), and some how I managed to get another 3 kill shots.

and now the whine which is why I'm here.

Where the hell did the lurm boaters comes from, next game, only four of us didn't have Lurms needless to say we lost...badly...because they were the type of lurm boaters that seem incapable of moving and getting own locks, so once the other 4 were down, game over.

Timber wolf with LRM 45.. OMG heretic, die die....

A: "wow, awesome hitreg today, 3 alphas into enforcer with hbk-4p, 0 dmg"
B: "Lol, mb learn to aim instead of whining *****!"

Yeah, awesome playerbase, nice people, usually people with a ping below 100ms, 'muricans flame much, or what am I missing?

I trust pugs too much

i clearly said that ill support you guys at I11 hill in alpine,you know that hill behind mt tryhard,since i was in a 3 er ll + gauss heavy metal,"answer was how about you push with the others".

OK,i sniped a while and our seemed to have the advantage so i dropped down,started scaling mt tryhard and TADAAA,harassment from my part was gone and our team stood no chance,zero,nada.

I ragequitted from the match before end screen,i was so frustrated,could have EASILY pulled off a 1200 damage game from that position,but trusted my team too much.

I guess I'm at my limit for the solo Q. Played for the first 2 hour block in over 2 weeks tonight. Did not have one single fun game. So much derp and selfish play and timidity.
I much prefer to play in a group!
Guess I'll reduce my play time down a bit further I guess and make sure I don't spend any more money lol. I really feel the game is too solo centric these days and has suffered very much for it.

[Bulletsponge0]

and hit reg is still absolute crap

in CW.. just put 5 separate 40 point alphas into the RT/RA of a dragon and it still had armor in both locations...as its spitting its stupidly overquirked AC5 spam...

I really, really, really dislike the "gg close" crowd.

Was just now in a match on Terra Therma, where something like 6-7 of our guys did more damage than the top guy on the other team,. and we absolutely stomped them.
2 arsebuckets on our team said that to the other team afterward, and all I could do is give them a "Yeah, being a **** is AWESOME!" response.

Apologies to the other team, and I can only hope in the very next game, both of those players got their faces stomped.

[Neutron IX]

Also, every single time I rush to the aid of the lance that gets cut off, or is threatened by an enemy push, because they are walking around like they're on a picnic, seeing sights and smelling flowers...I only add my mech to the list of mechs that died pointlessly without contributing much to the match.

And yet, I continue to do it...every time.
