While the Clan mechs were on the test server I ran some IS builds and rolled Clan mechs left and right. Learn how to play the game and stop complaining.

I can't tell if you're making a valid point...or being sarcastic?

Does it have to be one or the other?

It is a great point! As a non clan pilot that I am I can say that they are a breath of fresh air! Variety is good. And they are not immortal... they have drawbacks as well.

Here's how I look at it. There's no guarantee that the game is currently balanced, and as people attempt to design the best builds for Clan mechs, eventually we're going to see which weapons/systems/mechs need tweaked.

As of right now, I have yet to run into anything more than minor issues, but people certainly love to scream about the sky falling.

I rarely see any of the big complainers in-game, which tells me:
1. They're at a much lower Elo score to the point they won't even be "filler" for teams.
or
2. They don't play the game, and hop on whatever bandwagon lets them act like the biggest a** on the forums.

The few times I do see one of them in-game they're usually a missile boat, or some crazy stupid build with 5 weapon groups, and they either can't aim to save their life, or they stand still in the open.

But according to them on the forums, they're "elite," and all their problems is a result of balance.

Maybe you should have posted this in a thread where someone is complaining perhaps....

Do you even know the difference between a good pilot and a bad pilot?

If so tell PGI, the matchmaker/elo Dev have been struggling for 2 years.

The argument is less compelling when you have access to all the clan mechs and those you taunt do not.

Nobody is saying the clans are invulnerable or unbeatable. However there are a couple builds that seriously outclass anything the IS can offer. Just because we have concerns does not mean we are bad pilots....

P.S. I realize I am way off the top end, but I am also 100% solo.


I have yet to see these builds that outclass everything the IS has to offer.

Did this as well. I am an equal opportunity troll.

Except I can go bust out my IS builds and beat the hell out of Clan mechs and IS mechs.

And those who have not played Clan mechs have a more compelling argument over those who have played both?
