This game is doing it's damned hardest to make me quit at the moment. Match maker is ******, hit registration is probably at best 50/50, the meta is going too far and mega alphas are making ttk way too short.

Think it's finally time to ask for a refund as a long term player and fan it's not even fun when you win now. As the whole game has been riddled with failures of pgi's doing and theyre showing no sign of fixing.


i think the worst things happen currently are the terribad players everywhere.

PGI's biggest failure was to mech mechs fully customizable. never should have been like that. never.
the outcome we have currently speaks for itself. masses of gauss and laservomit. boating everywhere.

just that its too late to fix that problem now.... but i have to say. that ebon jaguar is a awesome mech.
it can brawl as well *...*

also. WE ARE BLOODIED YET UNBOWED!.

just had a match where in order to hit a jenner running away from me, moving slightly left to right..I had to aim a full 20 meters further right than he was shown on my screen...

That is ridiculous

had a weird situation in a recent match... still not sure if i behaved too cowardly or not

so, there was one player on our team, who got mad at me for a previous match, so he suicided at the beginning of the match with 0 damage, or may be he suicided because the enemy team had a friend of his from the same unit, i dunno, anyway i have a strong suspicion that he died intentionally, because i met him before multiple times and know he is a pretty good player... bzz, well, may be he had some connection problems, i was pretty busy to track how exactly it happened. anyway, he died with 0 damage, he was mad at me, we won 11 vs 12, it was caldera conquest, i burned a quickdraw who made a positioning mistake, guarded our assaults during nascar driving away their lights, tore arms from their exe, generally was in the center of fight, and managed to survive, thanks to my back armor. enemy had one mech left, piloted by the friend of that player on our team, we had multiple, that player asked his friend to kill me (at first i thought he asked somebody to team kill me, lol). his friend said he wasn't sure if he could kill a streakcrow but he would try and then they both tried to get a response from me, but i was silent. now, tab didn't show me what mech that person was piloted (it was a huggin), i, as usually, didn't recall it from the whirlwind of enemy mechs which i met, but i supposed it was a light or a fast medium, but my crow having survived the edge of attack was like 35% hp, had only 4 ssrm-6 left, lost one arm, didn't have any armor on the remaining hand (iirc), on the front of the central torso and both side torsos (for sure), all the remaining armor and open structure was seriously damaged too; it would be a suicide to fight even a semi-fresh light, on top of that i didn't want to give a satisfaction to that player on my team dying to their friend, which was a very serious chance to... so i kept silent and moved with a group of our mechs. that person named a sector, i turned there but some other our mech moved there and nobody appeared there, at the end i was told that he was disappointed -_-

Epic band.....

I suppose a lot of it boils down to cowardice though. I'm loosing count of the amount of matches where i'm getting stuck in and trying to find, close the distance and brawl with an enemy while the rest of team literally tries to runaway then the assaults on both sides finally decide to show their face at the end to play mop up crew.

It's very much like trying to shoot an arrow backwards at the moment with the lighter, faster mechs being the most aggressive and the ones with the biggest damage potential hide at the back and only show up with their guns at the end. Its been a revelation since i've started driving lights (trying to elite my panthers presently) and my k/d ratio is plummeting as i along with a couple of other lights and mediums are seemingly the only ones willing to shoot and brawl with anything.

I'm also beginning to suspect that light mechs lag shield invalidates having a high engine rating.

Just realized the next hero event includes the Anansi, Pirates Bane, and Sparky. All my favorite heros! How on earth am I suppose to choose which of those to concentrate on for the weeknd?


-Although the order I subconsciously wrote them down might tell me something about myself ;)

there is NO WAY the executioner has as much CT armor as the mechlab claims.... when a 2 ERLL raven can brush the CT from across the map and the armor goes deep orange.....something seems off..

on the bright side... I'm really getting the hang of the Ebon Jags, now that I found a configuration (use that, since "build" doesn't seem right since the same builds can come in different configurations) that I like...

Something i really get tired of is these scrubs with running LL/Gauss combo's. Really had enough of them now. How can you call yourself a Mechwarrior when you just run the same build as other 20 people. No offense.

The iconic Mechwarrior is not going to be what i like to see, but some divserity would been nice.

But PGI is crap either, The balance just shift along to other mechs with their half bandaid measures.

I saw a Timberwolf the other day carrying 1 LPL, 2 LRM 5's, and a TAG laser. That was his entire loadout.

that thing is awesome.
