Your argument is idiotic in a game that has damage-spreading missiles as a full third of its available weapons systems. Don't even get me started on AC/2s and damage-over-time beam lasers.
Sometimes, all a player *can* do is rack up tons of damage with their predetermined mech loadout, and if you're telling me those players suck, then you're saying that the ONLY way to play this game is to adhere to the pinpoint PPC/AC meta.
