I really think PGI just puts in the PTS forums so that they can ignore us without looking like they are ignoring us. My wife does the same thing.

Yesterday I tried to play on the PST twice on different times. There was nobody to play with. IMHO, next time, if they do not put a PST server, we have no rights to complain.

That moment when you and 5 other teammates succesfully thwart a push by 6 of the enemy team, only to look at the scoreboard and realize it is 6-6 and then go on to lose 8-12.

While I agree with the sentiment, I do also fault PGI for starting the PTS with an event, then following it up with another event. The try hards are going to choose the events over the PTS because of the leader boards, the average player is going to chose the events over the PTS for the free stuff.

PGI offers no incentive for the players to play the PTS, and by having events going every weekend thus far, they are actively discouraging player participation as well. So while in the end, yes, it is the players who are to blame for not participating in the PTS, but blame for the failure of the community to want to give it a try belongs to PGI.

Cathy,

To spare a long story let's just say I went blind for 2 months and pick it up from there...

Was playing everything on 28" Monitors (not 4k) but after healing up I noticed I needed something bigger. Have you thought about playing on an LCD TV? I have a fairly new 1080p 55" Sony that I play on...
WOW....never going back to a small monitor
Just saying...I've seen some crazy deals on 1080p TV (in the US)....

I think you might be dropping in a different mech, only time i've done badly in it, has been when either I got fed up with bad hiding team and pushed without support, or when the teams been either drunk or stoned going by the childish talk in Voip

Search forums for "Split Fp In Solo And Group Qeues."
My whine is the fact these people are making me hate them with a singular passion. Tired of the solo centri atttiude in online gaming, it's killing this game slowly day by day...

It's more along the lines of solos refuse to communicate and work together even for the 10 minutes of a match. Hmm its as if being antisocial places some limit on the things that you can accomplish.

oh well, back to building my burial pyramid in the back yard -- those things are heavy moving them by yourself. Got One stone in place so far this year only 40,000 more stones to go.

Why, if light mechs are soooo OP, do I, a relatively bad player, not seem to have a problem with them in my heavies and assaults like all the l33t players seem to. Conversely, if I am so good with heavies and assaults that I rarely die to lights if they are on their own, why am I not super MLGPRO in my light mechs?


(Also, why is an old man like me using internet slang like my 12 year old son?)

I haven't played for like two weeks and i just had a game. A team of mental midgets. People are so dumb seriously. So dumb you wonder how they manage to even start the game let alone use a computer.

Never shoot down UAVs, never. It could help you win.

Sometime i just wonder if some people aren't just born to be losers and take everyone around them in their fall. Then you go play online and you end up with 10 teammates who are born to lose.

Leveling my Phoenix Hawks: 1k, lots of ml, easy mode, I win a lot with a high kdr. Pxh1 3 llas/3mg better stats than the 1k except a really high loss rate so more kills per match but lower kdr. Still levels up pretty easily. Pxh 1b 2lpl/2ml, 100% loss rate so far, but getting = PSR for most rounds. I always find it interesting that I can have different mechs with similar stats for damage and kills, but one will win constantly and I won't be able to buy a win in the other.

As per above post.

Everything is so freaking huge I spend half the match trying to unzoom it..

[Kasumi Sumika]

So many Goddamn coward who refuse to push and only peek a poke with enemies. They only standing still and see their teammates getting wreck'ed without doing nothing.

oh come on, expecting the team to push when we have an 10 to 6 advantage,,, i must be crazy,,, why the atlas still had LRMs left...

[3xnihilo]

When RL limits you to about 10 rounds a week, a 9 round losing streak can get rather depressing.

[3xnihilo]

Also, speaking of limited time, I used to be able to squeeze 2 rounds into 30 minutes pretty easily. Now with the waiting find a match, waiting to vote, waiting to load, waiting for everyone else to load, waiting for the dropship animation, and the. Waiting to connect after the round it takes about 45 minutes to play 2 rounds. Which has the added bonus that if I have 1 hour I might not even be able to squeeze a third round in. This has actually cut my number of rounds in half since for some reason I tend to do all of my playing in 30-60 minute blocks. #adulting

[Kasumi Sumika]

Getting A LOT of losing streaks because my team have too many Assaults with LRM Builds that don't want to push. Instead they runaway from their teammates and they *********** their LRM while their teammates wrecked one by one.

AND WHY WARHAMMER MY FAVORITE MECHS IS NOW SO GODDAMN SQUISHY.

I'm so done with this game.....

damn you risk takers! lost a match we were up 5-0. one guy (who had been asking since 3-0) to push them now finally got everyone to push... until they turned the corner and the lead mech got wasted in seconds. everyone else immediately hit the brakes and started backing off. after being unable to get by anyone and repeatedly shot in the back, arm, legs by assault clan peeksalot, I decided to go around half the map to get behind them since facing the enemy was theoretically less damaging than sticking with the team. by the time I get there it's 9-10 and we eventually lose 10-12.

[nehebkau]

Crybabies in VOIP QQing as to why, me in my hellbringer, when we are down to just 3 mechs to 5 doesn't stay around and die. Blaming me for the loss...

So I take off my headset cause I don't want to hear the morons and their inane, useless whine. Just me and 5 mechs now. Now me and 4 enemy, me an 3 enemy, me and 2 enemy.... and because I took my headset off I don't hear the heat warnings and shutdown and dead.

I COULD HAVE KILLED THEM ALL IF THOSE USELESS SCUBS HAD OF JUST SHUT THE FARK UP.

Oh yes it was all my fault, 4 kills, almost 800 damage and the rest of you scrubs (excluding one) were all less than 300.

The stupidest part was they were all standing on the top, middle, of mining collective getting sniped and LRMd... which is why i moved.
