Was pretty cool. Couldn't type or bring up the map but I was able to watch the rest of the fight.

Not sure how or why this happened but I've been having weird lag and glitches for the past few days.

Reconnect OP! It must be nerfed!

It'd be nice to have the option to switch to free cam mode instead of spectator, but with the disadvantage of having your chat disabled. Though it'd probably still be exploited.

Ah I think I was in that very game, on the opposing side, was kinda wondering why you're mech just stood there in the ravine and got cockpitted by our mediums, since you clearly typed something earlier in the match :).

Shame you dc:d, seems like quite abit of that going around with the recent patch... it helps if you portfoward the ports this game uses btw, has reduced my dc numbers drastically.

Here's a link to the portforwarding thread: http://mwomercs.com/...number-for-qos/

Also I would like to salute our brave Banshee pilot (strayker?) for distracting the hell out of half the enemy team while the rest of us pushed. /salute

Lag and getting kicked out when joining matches while in groups. Never happened to me before but it's a couple times a night now, at least.

And that is what the UAV should have been all along, slower of course but able to fly around and lock a single target...

That should be left in and made into an option on death. Free or Spectator cam. It would help with video projects when you want an external-not-behind-your-mech view too.

Yes, I agree entirely.

But ONLY in the solo queue, where it couldn`t be reasonably exploited by people on comms (aside from rare 2 man syncs) ;)

If they made it a feature it would probably be an option when joining a private match. People could definitely make some awesome videos with it.

I have been asking for this mode/observation method for a bit. I want in Private Lobbies and in Training grounds, as well as multiperson training grounds.

There are huge advantages in training with a team for a commander to have this and use this.

Outside of those two options, it could just be a spectator mode.

I know it would destroy the latency of the match but I'd love to have the option to watch a tournament like that.
