So I just had a match that really left me in a state of rage. I killed 6 enemy mechs in the match and we still lost! First one I got was a Cataphract walking out of the garage with his back to me. Then I got a Protector by myself and turned on a Victor coming out of the garage with his back to me and hit him once not killing him. He comes up top to face me and I beat him and his little locust buddy. All those guys still had armor everywhere and now I'm open CT yellow. I jump into the battle below and take on a fully armored Stalker using cover and JJ's I score another kill on an him as his teammate in a Highlander came in to fight with him and I managed to score a few hits to dispatch him (he was open though). I'm feeling pretty good about the match at this point since I've beaten 6 and we have our turrets! Then I check to see who is left and it's just me and one other guy! WHAT!?! HOW?!? You've got to be kidding me! I've never had a match like that only to suffer a loss because of.....well....my team being so incredibly bad! Oh and btw my team was down 2 due to DC and their team was down 1 due to DC, thanks PGI!

Yup. Classic case of Carry Harder. How your team performs is the luck of the draw, dude, don't let it get to you. Play a different chassis/weight class or just take a break for a while.

I don't know, man. Here's what I see when I look at that screengrab:

1) You played a helluva game. Nice job. I'm jealous actually. I've done 5 kills a few times, never six, though. Really, very nicely done.

2) Pretty much half your team put up decent damage numbers. Discounting the DC you said your team had, a bunch of players did okay.

3) The members of your team that didn't have big damage were in assaults and heavies. It's totally possible, going just from this screenshot, that those guys were prioritized and taken down quickly. It happens.

I can understand your rage, I've felt it. I'm just saying that it looks like your team, all in all, wasn't terrible. The other team was just better. If I were you, I would be feeling awesome for having gotten 6 kills. But maybe you do that all the time...

It happens daily to me, half the reason I won't spend any money on this game..it's wasted when I have to take regular long term breaks to prevent monitor/keyboard breakages.

I have this happen at times. Depends.
If I wind up on a losing streak, I just log out and come back another day.
Else, I walk away then come back.
If you quit, you miss things like this:



You may even be that guy!
Just had this earlier, all I had were 2MPLs, 3Streaks and 1LRM10, no Artemis!
I was helping chase an Atlas, then noticed I was one of 2 left vs 3.
I kept on the Atlas chasing around buildings in Crimson finally putting it to bed. Tried going after a Cat next before noticing it had LRM35 and I was the last guy. Figuring I would be fine among buildings, I found its near cored Jenner partner and chased him around even jumping on top of buildings to cut it off. After landing a Streak Alpha on it, I went back after the Cat noticing a damaged leg I finally knocked out. Now I see the timer is nearly out so I try getting the other leg. Picture says it all even the time!



I log out on a happy note.
Someday, you might too.

That is worthy of the bragging thread right there
