Nice pic OP...but I think I can top that.

I haven't had a match like this for about 2 months...but it happened again last night. Lol. I don't know about the rest of you, but matches like these are the RARE exception...this almost never actually happens to me. And I'm still sad about 3/3/3/3. This was our version of 'Steiner Scout Lance' night...before PGI takes it away.

The other team actually made INCREDIBLE use of its tagging lights and LRM-heavy team...until their brawlers came at us and decided to all split up...poor choice.

The Wolverine was the High scoring player on that Assault heavy team? That is awesome!

He was, literally, the least scary mech. I'm pretty sure they ignored him entirely, and he quietly slipped behind mech after mech and assisted with coring them out.

A lot of good shots from the MM gods that game, too...people were consistently hitting CT's like 20 meter bullseyes.

Gotta love it when the hate is heaped in the wrong direction. I'd be grumbling that a Wolverine killed me not an Assault!

Had this match a little earlier today...




I know matchmaker doesn't take loadout into consideration, but my team was all out PPC/AC... even my jump-Jester added a pair of PPCs to the mix.

It's matches like these that continue to draw me to the conclusion that sometimes matchmaker is just saying "time to put some losses on your record!"

Any suggestions as to how this can be better balanced? Do you have any similar tales of how one team was just utterly stacked? (Maybe you beat them back anyway? How?)

Every time I load MWO I have to go up against drops like yours .. Gets old really.

Well, I don't usually see an 11 assault + 1 medium enemy team like that but I do get a lot of games where it's 6-8 Assaults on a side. I'd say at least half my games have 6 on a side and smaller % at 7-8.

Edit: Whish is why I'd like to try out the 3/3/3/3 because to be honest, I am tired of people just riding out the bring as many assaults as you can pony.
