Good lord. The amount of non english speakers has began their invasion.

you'd think there would be enough people who have played enough to know if "enemy team not located when going this way- maybe they went the other." especially on assault. I point this out in game to silence while I stayed at our base in my urbie. no one turns around. we start capping, their hitboxedly gifted cheetahs show up at our base (actually one may have been a firestarter) and proceed to wipe me out as I see four more coming. I warn again. and go to spectate- we have 4 mechs on their base- 2 enemy dead, 2 enemy mechs on the other side of the rocketlauncher transport thing and 11 friendly mechs trying to shoot through it to get to them. they win on caps.

So much Derp tonight.

[odiemoncrew]

Why is it that everyone has to act like a little ***** and bring out their ******* LRM equipped ecm mech
just because they don't ******* know how to get 30 points otherwise during a solo queue match, for
those challenges

it's like they want to derp around and not even ******* try to do ****, just press a damn button and win

[Bulletsponge0]

they REALLY need to have a FF penalty and not just one for TKs

every single event they run that rewards match score makes people really not give a damn who they shoot, or who they shoot through

or at the very least, add a team damage done column to the end of match screen, so people can see who the fools are..

Been asking for a Friendly damage display at the end of matches for eons.... Apparently PGI doesn't want a shame-war.

I didn;t realize it was already the weekend. have 3 guys left vs 5 of the other team- they proceed to scatter in three different directions. getting shot/run into multiple times before I move 20m- and when I make a long loop around the back of my team to avoid it- the guy i'm trying to avoid is right there waiting at the end of the loop.

usual person proclaiming their awesomeness and everyone else's badness- though for a change this one scored well.

invincible arctic cheetahs resisting 3LL alphas to their CT five or six times (on my screen anyway) before it deigns to remove the armor-mine of course falls right off easily under a couple clan medium lasers and some sort of low lvl ballistic clbx2/cac2?), was shocked several shots later when I finally took a torso off. had 4 mechs shooting a shutdown damaged cheetah- 2 heavies, an assault and me in a medium- managed to take one arm off before he powered back up. though he finally did die a short time later.

firestarter vs arctic cheetah- first one to record damage loses.

They actually had one event back at the end of jan i belive it was or the start of feb this year.
i know it was get 140 points through a formula of (kills x 10) + (kill assists x 20) + {(damage - team damage)/15}
the formula for damage part might be slightly off but that was it, and it was an event that
every qualifying match you got 20 MC for i think up to like 2 thousand mc.

They need to start using that formula again, and slant it that you lost a lot more points for FF

I liked that one too, but people were trying for "perfect" matches with 12 assists, so no one was killing stuff. . . It certainly didn't stop me, but I do think I had one round that didn't qualify because I got a kill and if it had been an assist it would have put me over.

The mechlab keeps ******** the bed and my normally boundless patience has dwindled to zero.

EDIT: Now I can't even connect to the game. Normally I laugh and move on but I JUST gave PGI $49.95 for MC cause I had some money to burn. Now I'm being confronted with "NOPE YOU CAN'T SAVE MECH CHASSIS" and "NOPE NOW YOU CAN'T EVEN GET INTO THE GAME"

Should have just literally burned the money. At least then I could light this cigarette to relax in bed after you f- me PGI.

Edit the 2nd: Alright, problem solved. After 8 farking tries. But it's fine

i liked the event, because as long as you got a decent amount of damage and 6 assists or 7 assists you were golden.
nailed it once with 4 kills, 5 assists, & 867 damage, in an hunchback-4p with an xl engine, missing one arm, a leg and open
internals almost everywhere else other then my head

[The Choppa]

Seemingly the release of the Scat and Cheetah have made me play like i'm on my first day again.
Maybe I relied the doritos so much in the past that, now when there is 8 ecm mechs a side, I am lost and confused.

The sniping! So much sniping from ******* Scats! Argh!

And than to top it off, tried running the LRM HBR... why in gods name did I even try that. Have had a couple of sub-100 damage games. Much Rage.

[mad kat]

Hit detection is worse on a server closer to me......Riiiiggghhhttt.

My mighty locusts legs seem to be falling off for fun with a perceived increase in fall damage.

Oh and PPC's that can travel right through enemies without scratching them

SNAFU.

New event startedt, I've had 5 games this morning only one of them has got me above 30, all the teams I've been on have been rolled.

When we have these events going on, I try to start the games a bit more cautiously. Peek for some potshots, shamelessly harvest assists using ERLLs at extreme range for negligible damage.

Once I'm satisfied that I've put in about 150-200 damage and a few assists, I then go balls-out as normal (should the situation call for it).

Doing this I find I can get my 30 points about 19 times out of 20.

Dunno where PGi got those EU stats from but from what i've played so far the EU servers have the derpiest matches and players. Never have i witnessed such **** matches before.

The only server from now on that will be ticked for me is NA.

Haha the difference i've noticed on EU servers are there is more nascar, more players scattered all over the map, one of those two.

Today played five games on the EU servers and in all games my team went down 2-3 mechs in the first minute/minute and a half. Then just scattered everywhere. So i was like **** this ticked NA only and then the matches went back to normal.

Yeah the Victor used to be so legit as a sniper and brawler due to that mobility. So squishy now though versus Clan mechs.

I'm gonna have to tick the EU box again though to get this challenge done fml.
