Don't you need proof he is going to do it instead of reporting him for suggesting it? No harm in making comments on a game that is having some major problems right now. He has the right.

Haven't you heard of the term "preemptive strike"? I've already started PVPing his account even before the Clans arrive. :D

It is streaks as well tried the new mech and streak damage was abysmal. 4 streaks.
smells of an outsider hack job on PGI.


No, PGI is quite capable of being hacks internally. This is, very much, PGI's failure to test as there is no flipping way it wouldn't have been noticed with even casually running a few matches. You can't pin it on "not enough people to to properly stress test" like the matchmaker.

It smacks of "we only test what we think the patch might break", not "we test the patch and see if anything broke".

Exactly where did I say his own team would kill the gold mech?

You might want to take a remedial reading comprehension course, or just learn not to infer what is not explicitly written.

The one and only... It's a real shame that Karl frequently says that he'll try to get somebody from another area to pop in to answer a question... And they never seem to show up.

Karl is great and answers what he can, the problem is there is an awful lot that the Community would really like some answers on that he can't comment on, and nobody has the foresight to follow his example and improve the situation.

Every time a gold mech launches, both teams could have "technical difficulties" except for a couple who would become gold mech wreckers. Then the wreckers could go kill the gold mech and return to spawn, without shooting any of the mechs having technical difficulties. Once all the techinical difficulties were resolved, the match could play out as normal.


It's called conspiracy.

I think you need to retake all courses in writing and comprehension. Better yet, I highly recommend repeating college from scratch and in a much much better university, assuming you've even finished college.

Well, a shame it took me going to draconian extremes to get people's attentions, but thank you for at least acknowledging the issue. I would really like to enjoy my shiny new "Loup de Guerre" I bought before finding out 66% of it's hardpoints were currently useless.


Well that will teach you to buy a French Mech. lol

For sale, one French mech, never been fired, runs like the wind.

I must have missed it, what was "off" about missiles?

The damage seems fine to me.

Missiles are broken and not OP for once, oh noes whatever shall we do?

lets look at it like this, how many times have LRMs been broken and ridiculously OP nice to see them completely nerfed for a change.

Once, when Artemis was introduced.

funny, considering french tanks during WW2 were for the most part superior to german tanks (but that goes without saying that german tanks after 1942 rocked hard). Bad tactics killed the french army, not the engineering. Well, they had flaws. But, armor, gun-wise, they were superior.

Except what you wrote them makes no sense if it wasn't their own team. I don't see how the technical difficulties would cross a map and come back unscratched.
