If you are dying to LRMs, and come to the forums to whine about OP they are...you are infact a low skill member of the steering wheel underhive.

Let it be known, however, that if you are dying to LRMs, and come to the forums asking to learn how to survive against such attacks, I have absolutely no problems teaching a few tricks and tips.

I used to hate LRMs and die to them all the friggin time. Not so much now. Radar Deprivation rocks!!! Unless there is a UAV up. I shoot down UAVs every match. So does the enemy team. Now the thing the gets me killed is those damned arty and air strikes.

Yep. Damn shame that they don't and won't though.

They don't need to ask for tactics to survive lrms.. they have a tactic, which is whine on the forums until there nerfed... there tactic is just not working currently.

just give us solaris, LRMs won't cause so much issues there

The whole game is solaris. It's all meaningless arena combat with varying size maps and no cheering throngs around to massage the gladiator ego. What we need is real meaningful mission based combat with objectives, much larger maps and role warfare.

I've started to liken those who can't understand indirect fire like those who don't understand why clearance signs are put on bridges and must be accurate so semis and oversized loads and observant camper drivers don't hit them.

I am so sick of trying to play in group and finding only LRM groups. They are invincible. I mostly play Ballistics; and from my point of view, things are way out of balance. Just last round, I am in a cataphract. Full armor, i pop up to shoot and in that 2-3 second window I am locked for LRMs. I back up down the mountain and am out of sight from all enemies and no uav. I keep backing up and getting hit by missiles; there is no narc or spotter. I die from these missiles that held lock for 12+ seconds. How do you hold a lock for so long? Unless this is a hack (which i doubt) Clan missiles and lock times have broken this game. I didn't have a single round hit 100+ damage all night in the group queue. Every time it's the same story. LRM lock on, I run to cover. Cover fails and I die. The weapons are meant to be like rock, paper, scissors. Yet in most of my mechs (the non-ECM ones) there is no check for LRMS. you get locked, you run for cover, the cover failes to cover you, and you die. Hence, game broken.
