and then u see a group of AS guys totally going nuts with mechs like the loup de guerre.
its so refreshing and awesome to see some top guys playing full head on brawlers while the wannabe's can only play well with the top mechs.

Brawling in PUGs! Yep I got an AC20 as my long range weapon. more then once a welled played sneak on HOTH got me in to the red's LRM boats. got to play fox in the hen house... for little while till their heavies turned around and dealt with me. is it too much to ask that while i am dying that my team back shoots the reds that turned to shoot me. oh wait my team is still with in the same 100m circle shooting ML at the reds 900m away...

Played 4 matched in a DDC last night in PUG QP. A lot of people obviously play with VOIP muted, and/or a lot of people do not understand what a push is.

To be clear: I know I suck, but if an Atlas and a couple others are willing to push, and especially when they announce that push, shouldn't at least some of the rest of the team support that push? No? How about just use those pushing as a meat shield to get some shots on the enemy while they are busy with the idiots who pushed? Still no?

In only 1 of 4 matches did anyone follow. The other three times when I said I was pushing -where ever, the vast majority of the team not only failed to support the push but they actively scattered. I do not think I will ever understand how to play this game.

IMO that's the best conquest map we have. all caps pretty much isolated and can't be supported from anyone else but whoever's there unless the whole team pushes to one.

but hey with domination they added an additional tactic- before it was peek and poke at the entrance and die at the center 1 by 1. but with domination they can... peek and poke WHILE standing outside the circle at the center to die 1 by 1.

as for the maps that's the problem with the "biggening" of maps- just means brawlers have much longer runs to get into action while the peek and pokers have many more spots to peek and poke from. so everyone gets their pokier mechs which was a call for the return of the LRMining across the board.

like frozen city- wasn't one of my favorite maps but now it's 10 minutes of two teams standing across the valley of death until the team in the old city decides to push to their right. seldom does the team in the new area go to their right, I mean move at all unless they're up 4-0

I had a guy in an atlas very purposefully push in front of me multiple times to block me from shooting the last AFK enemy. If I knew it meant that much to him I would have just let him have the kill, I just didn't realize what he was doing until the 3rd time I had repositioned to get an angle on the target. At least he didn't just core me out from the back to get the kill ;)

What are you running? I've seen the Base build and the Hero build do decently as ballistic platforms.

Holy Kerensky with Nekomimi, new Minimap color just like a puke and it's not appealing to see. Also Grid Coordinates now hard to read because the strange color palettes.

Looks like an arty strike wiped your head armor, and then you got hit by a stray AC/5 shell for the kill.

Played 3 games this morning. Each was about 700 damage. I have the width of 2 mouse pointers away from Tier 4.

4th game is Manifold. I run up the side of the base with the team and my internet drops.

I reconnect dead. :(

Dying to a random disconnect is one of the more frustrating, yet understandable, ways to get killed in this game.
