Then again...that feeling when your team won't push the saddle with the 4 King Crabs and the Daishi you have, and you all get LRM dead. ;)

Early patch release....

On a day where I'm out of town for work, so I won't be able to play til Wednesday night at the earliest....

Think of it this way - by the time you can - the que's will have possibly shrunk some.

My whine was premature. I was actually able to return home last night and get a drop or two in. Felt good killing my first crab. :)

I dusted of my grid iron tonight to check the revised quirks....... Holy crap batman that 50% cooldown quirk is madness! If you have a quick aim its possible to shoot a hill humper twice with one gauss weapon.

Also proved handy for killing crabs i found too was my 4sp with 40% artemis srm6 cooldown. Again mad rate of fire!

Whine? Oh err matchmaker being as broken as ever and me being a complete tool wondering why my spider 5k isnt performing properly to find the jumpjets and some armour missing. Duh.

Ended up on Aliisa's team earlier:) Me in my Raven 3L Aliisa in his/her Dragon. I attached myself to Aliisa and shadowed Aliisa with ECM. I acted as bait, turning enemy's back towards Aliisa....I think we ripped through a few mechs like that....
didn't have to speak, just clicked and moved a s a duo instinctively.

My whine is, why can't more games be like that? :P



lul yeah that was awesome :D just de-crippled my dragon from that horrible gauss-ER large laser loadout...
back to the brawling loadout i enjoyed so much :D
its so nasty to enemies :P
changed the lbx10 to a UAC5 and its even funnier now XD

Speaking of Aliisa...soooo.

I FINALLY seem to have made my peace with the Huggin, by doing what I should have done in the first place and building a loadout that is as close to what Aliisa described in this very thread many pages ago. http://mwo.smurfy-ne...a349aef47a20c8c

So my whine is...what the hell took me so long to actually copy that loadout + why doesn't Aliisa start up a "Huggin School for People That Don't Huggin Good" or something like that?

No 1k+ games yet, but tonight alone I've managed to solo annihilate 1 Mad Cat, 2 Ryokens, 1 Atlas and 1 King Crab.

Turns out they all go down pretty easy when you melt their arms, legs and/or torso sections off so quickly.


ncie to see you going nuts in the huggin now :P 1k damage wont be something you achieve in that mech due to the ammunition problems BUT until the ammo runs out you can devastate so many enemies that it just leaves you with a smile XD

Ok, now that community warfare has dropped

My whine is that I don't know what much of the whining in the General Discussion board will be about














(Ok, I'm lying, I know exactly what the whines will be......they'll still be the same whines that they have always been)

Cannot drop in a group into it....

Unless you are all in the same unit.

On the one hand, that puts us back into Open Beta matchmaking

On the other hand.... that puts us back into Open Beta matchmaking :ph34r:

Edit:
Not that particularly - but that as in CW in general

since CW dropped, the pugs have become worse..far far worse, teams full of people using MG's to engage targets at 500 meters away.
people in lights that stand still in front of ac20 armed crabs..
Zoom modules on Mechs with MPL and SRMS.

Its endless lol

Community Warfare now comes complete with people who have forgotten how to aim lasers away to avoid grazing teammates.

I understand that when you are engaging someone, and I walk in front of you, it is 100% my fault. I usually apologize.

But when I am standing still, and the people on the other side are just playing peekaboo, you have no reason to CORE my back.
Please, familiarize yourself with where the weapons on your 'mech are located.

Just DC'd from a match on purpose.

Beyond tired of listening to people whining about "cheese" in what has been repeatedly labeled and warned as being openly competitive. <_<

And listening to someone whine because a "cheese" tactic was even SUGGESTED in such a mode?
That is simply and blatantly stupid.

Cheese is part of what you GET with that.

IN ANY GODDAMN GAME. :angry:


Double liked for the awesome new Faction Logo you're sporting there Shar! ;)

My whine? My unitleader hasn't been online yet since the drop of Community Warfare, so we're still set as lone wolves and therefore cannot, apparently, participate until a contract is signed. Ah well, patience is a virtue they say. I am calm and one with the universe. Ommmmmm! Ommmmmmm!

My second whine is my yo-yo mechwarrior skill level. Sometimes (rarely, but it does happen) I fight as if I am death incarnate, scoring 1K damage and several kills, then the next match it's as if someone replaced those godlike skills with those of ten-thumbed chimpanzee having a seizure. And it's not just "you just went up an ELO level". No, it's the fact that I suddenly make decisions I in my better moments _know_ are bad, and therefore avoid. I demand consistency, self! Why do I betray myself so?

My whine that ghost bear thingy by my name.
I am still the cussing, contraction using, freeborn pirate/scum bag merc I have always been. Just took the contract for the cbills. Clan gold spends just like other gold, that and I have these clan mechs I need to work up. So not to worry when this week is up I am thinking about taking ether a davion or steiner contract. Probably not the dragon, that whole hate the merc bit and all but I hear that mybe changing. Back room rumors and such. Maybe a drop ship full of cn9s hmmmm
