In a CW match...
9 out of 12 players failed to get more than 500 damage across 4 mechs.

1 player managed to get above 1200 (me)
and
2 players managed below 100 damage (across 4 mechs)

What the hell! If you are going to try CW at least TRY.



well in my case (i'm assuming you're talking about being on the attacking team ) if i have a low damage score it's usually because i'm focused on trying to get to the generators/omega and shoot them instead of being delayed by fighting the enemy mechs (and giving them their advance to omega- do not run back, do not collect 200 credits card by killing someone fighting at the gates while some friendly is about to reach omega)

if this happened while defending then...i got nuthin :)

aw man... should have gotten this battle on video.... =(
my trusty little treb with 2 ppc and a ac5, XL210 smacked 3 assaults nearly on its own lol.
few hits on a raven, few hits on a vindicator, rest went into a warhawk, stalker and banshee.
killed all 3 assaults, 930 damage in that thing that is considered a pile of ****.
just wandered around, shot the warhawks face away until he decided to not do a direct fire duel with me (and he had 4 ppc LOL) good for me, i shot his ass away :D
could shoot the stalker weaponless before he did any harm to me but he teamed up with a ac20/large laser banshee to trap me close quartered to make my ppc useless.

didnt work good enuff ;) one ppc killed the stalker, next killed the banshee :D
god i love these battles.

There are several groups like this -- most consider themselves 'elite' and sadly are the people that PGI is listening to for design decisions.



Elites you say! My my, how very wonderful for them I'm sure. Does that job pay very well?

If you're the owner of the folder, you should be able to right-click on it and give yourself read/write permissions (under the security tab). If you're not the owner, but you are an administrator on your machine, you should be able to take ownership (under the security, advanced tab) then assign yourself permissions. At least that's the way it works in Windows 7. Windows 8 is all mucked up, so I don't know if it works the same.

This whine is no else then myself to blame.

Hopped in my best Atlas, from the Founders program. I always feel special in that thing due their special look on their face.

Anyway tried to get in brawling range on Canyon Network. Though i got myself covered from LRM fire. Noted i don't because i got nuked the hell out of it. Atleast 40% and a few ballistic fire got my left Arm till i got facing a Crab. No chance in getting away.

Tried my best, but this does not happen to me alot. Only made like what, 150 damage.

Embarrasing!

Why is it that some people can't believe that they will have a bad game. I had one person yelling about new players not able to play the game--costing him wins. People who have been in this game for years have bad days. You cans control the other 23 players on the field. Hell, victory is almost random for anything less than 8 man groups.

Sheer frustration though Grim. Whilst not cool it is understandable, as along as they are not swearing at them-chalk it down to that. After all, give it a while and it might be you one day feeling the frustration:)

Regardless of outcome, I work to have the highest matchscore on my team.

I am satisfied if I am in the top 4.

At least then I know I did my part and the result of anything good, I can tell myself I helped achieve. On the other hand I will deny, for my ego's sake the converse is true

some people are not new, they just act like new players.
simply because they are terrible.
and i bet there are alot of them out there that just claim to be new.
hell everytime i play in US primetime it seems that nothing but new players are out there >_>
the amount of cowardice is EXTREME there.

i don't like it when people complain about new players in a MMO that needs new players. also i knew americans were fat and lazy, but i had no idea they were also cowardly. guess i need to watch more euro TV.

so back at Christmas time if you bought mc with kk or some such you got the HBK mastery pack. looked like a pretty good deal so i bought. well just got around to messing with the HBKs and maybe it is just me and i suck with them... ok it is just me as i see ppl playing very well with them. oh well keep playing them and ether get better or i will die alot...

so if you see me in a HBK yes i am that bad in them

i guess i fit the new player/old player whine except i am way too much of a berserker to just hide. you know charge and close to bayonet range and all that

now if only HBKs had bayonets....

"UPDATE"

just noticed PGI extended the like a champion challenge though this weekend. almost half way there, soooo parking the HBKs and back into something i can almost pilot well enough to finish this....

my attempts at heavies/assaults range from bad to worse. i think the jager is about the only one of them i do decent with. then i pop into my cent AH for one match and get 2 kills and 800 dmg- or the combined total of my atlas and tbolts over the course of the day.

i know my biggest mistake in the bigger mechs- i try to advance...

need to work on being more cowardly. maybe adding some lrms might help me with that?
