I can't keep up?...lmao..I can handle the meta..I am not the 1 crying about....sounds to me like you are the 1 having a problem keeping up.....I am defending the product that currently exists...you are crying for changes because you lack the skill to handle the current "meta"

odd..since the only one crying in this thread...is you. And your fear someone will take your precious no skill poptarting away. Me, I could care less. Because I know how to use the mechlab to adapt my wittle battlemechs to whatever the meta brings, instead of crying "oh, oh!!! my mechs are all RUINED!!!!".

Wow, if you are old enough to have played MW1, you should really act a little more grown up. Kinda pathetic.

Having also played it, and TT Battledroids, does that make my entitlement higher than his entitlement?


If this were the Mechwarrior Turn-Based Strategy Game Online forum, then yes.

You say it like the meta takes skill....it doesn't.

Game balance is so stale because the PP FLD is so superior by comparison. BECAUSE of the fact all weapons instantly converge on the exact same location, regardless of arm actuators or weapon mounting.

In fact, I'm pretty decent at the meta. It doesn't change the fact it's boring as balls. You are the one who doesn't want a balanced game.


Are you happy with the fact short range weapons are absolute garbage? Would you be against short range weapons, I don't know, actually being better than the long range weapons up close?

well, it's obviously all about him. Apparently his playing Mechwarrior DOS entitles him to special say as to how the game should be developed. Inciteful that. Having also played it, and TT Battledroids, does that make my entitlement higher than his entitlement?

I am voicing my opinion...if you don't like it TOO BAD....nut up buttercup the world is a harsh place....and if you can't handle the meta here, you likely can't handle anything in life...you must be 1 of those libtards that instead of accepting that something is challenging and learning to cope you would rather make a scene until it is dumbed down to your level

Hmmm...so MechWarrior Tactics, then? (now the nice part about going there, is it reminds me how much further behind PGI could be, lol)

um, the game rules? All the lore, fluff and literature? The fact it is played with a random hit table? Guess what, MW? It¡'s not canon? Never has been. Buttercup.

Show me -

and other people are leaving this game in droves...can't you tell by all the sales? PGI is most likely losing money...and i can tell point blank...it is all because of unneeded nerfs


Oh I'm aware - most of my friends left long ago - and I can't get anyone to come back because of ghost heat. It still pains me to this day, that I can't use the Awesome for the role it was built for without imploding because of a poorly band-aid mechanic that has no place in battletech.

Did I just see someone say "libtard" on a site about giant fighting robots???

did I click the wrong tab and accidentally open Fark?


I used that as an example because libtard don't adapt..they whine until someone gives in and changes it...just like the cry babies on this forum

No one only does one tactic. But I see some people here that stated they were annoyed when somebody even walked over a hill to snipe.

A jump sniper moves in a predictable way, is fully exposed, and not all that hard to hit with a full laser burn or even lrms with a tag. It's not incredibly hard to stop a jump sniper. it's not even challenging, it certainly doesn't need a patch.

The fact this game mechanic makes balancing weapons impossible and makes skill irrelevant will indeed lead to that.

Thankfully, PGI could solve all of that. Shame some poor players who can't adapt to the proper IP will leave. Perhaps COD is better suited for your caliber.

Only the bad ones - the good - (look at the tournament) are mobile as hell.
Fully exposed - if necessary waist down, but Mechs like the 3D - can give you a double PPC shot - and you hardly see a quarter.
- I don't like poptarting at all, but i don't have problems in PUG matches, even use the 3D from time to time - as mobile strike unit with pop tarting capability

EXACTLY!....There is no need to nerf anything, as a matter of fact I think they need to roll back some nerfs....if people don't like the game..go find something else

It says I'm on mechwarrior online....

what kind of weirdo would call someone a "libtard" over a conversation about the best and worst ways to kill giant fight robots of the future?
