I want a "no weapons or mechs that have ever killed me" mode.

The "Forever Alone" mode? If I ever went in to that mode, I would be the only mech on the map - I think I've been killed by all mech and weapon types. :P

Gonna have to disagree with you as well, Zyn. I want Clan mechs in game; but I only want them on the opposing team. I feel dirty with them on my side. Ideally when CW is in full force (2, maybe 8 years from now?) we will have nice IS vs IS fights and IS vs Clan fights, with no dirty intermingling.

using older mechs is not a disadvantage unless the player is really, truly bad.


What is with this bullshit that takes "player abilities" into account when comparing clans vs is lately, this makes no sense.

A division in between Ineer Zone mechs and Clan mechs, that's all. Clan Mechs utilize an overwhelmingly superior barrage of armaments... see timberwolfs with ther uber streak srms while an inner zone mech gets a streak srm 2 at best.

It may be your Elo talking. I have trouble fighting Clans in this account, in a less played Account, I wasted a Timber Wolf, Dire Wolf and Stormcrow. Helped waste a Warhawk and 5 other Mechs/Omnis From my Victor.

You already have the answer to your own problem. You want something that isn't offered through normal play. That is what private matches are for. You get to choose the parameters.



I already said at the beginning this is not a suitable solution in my opinion.

Freedom of expression right? So go tell 'Enough with the QQ' somewhere else and leave space for those who want to discuss the main subject in this topic(which is the one I posted at the beginning).


I am all for freedom of expression.

However my freedom of expression is that you are being a bit silly expecting a game mode to be created on your personal perception of game balance.

Furthermore, your post is pretty much the same post made by everyone who decides that they don't like something because they recently died to it. They don't go anywhere positive, and the tiniest bit of research will reveal this.

So, by all means, articulate on the terror of clan mechs and people spending money on the game, but don't expect it to change to put paying customers at a disadvantage, after all, you can acquire these very same "OP" mechs down the line for free (some already).

If you had come on and said "I hope when CW comes out, that we have a 3025 game mode scenario limited to the relevant tech, in addition to the 3050 invasion scenario", then I would have agreed with you. But let's face it, your post isn't about that.

I want a game withoyt 'pay to win' players who can easily overrun me with their OP clan tech weapons.

And it kind of seems a legit request.


As Legit as your terrible assumption of a game you obviously know nothing about....

I wish PGI would ban those who ALL DAY LONG stand on there soap box and scream MWO is Pay 2 win because they are not as good as a few others in the game.

Enough crying, learn to play. I will gladly drop 1v1 in a clan mech and let you guys or gals burn me up (well try :ph34r: ) any day. Think of it as hands on Clan destruction training!

Actually, I believe this part: "Enough crying, learn to play. I will gladly drop 1v1 in a clan mech and let you guys or gals ******* up (well try :ph34r: ) any day. Think of it as hands on Clan destruction training!" to be quite useful.

You should take him up on the offer. Once you get some practice fighting the Clans, you'll see that they aren't the boogeyman you fear them to be. [EDIT: Which is somewhat unfortunate, the Clans should be powerful enough to make some IS Mechwarriors soil their cockpits]

I am there to see if others share my perception.

I simply want a separate scenario with inner zone mechs only.

I never talking of putting paying customers to a disadvantage. I am instead proposing to give those who don't want to deal with clan mechs a possibility to do so.

And the other players are saying your OP is not a suitable solution to the problem you are having.

OP, there is currently the option to do IS v IS in a private match.

Beyond that, splitting the general queue more times would be detrimental to the quality of games.

I own the clan mechs.
The TWolf is definitely pay to win at this point, as it is clearly better than any other mech, and by a wide margin.

I do significantly better when driving a TWolf, and it's not because i become more skillful when driving it. It's because the mech is immensely strong.

And basically the only folks who dispute this are folks who are not competent enough to utilize the advantages of the chassis, or who want to try and preserve the advantage conveyed by that chassis over non paying players.

Can the Clans get a Button too, so they don't have to put up with the whining of those like yourself, who only want what they want, and everyone else can go **** themselves.

P.S. Remember the old adage. There is no ME in Team. ;)

Alright, that's fair.
What about people who don't want to deal with ECM, LRMs, or any other number of things people have complained about over the years? Should they all get their own little Queues - or should they just use the Private Match option?

Hint: The answer is Private Matches.

I only run HBKs and CDAs, and I don't consider any of the Clan Mechs P2W.
Perhaps I'm crazy, or the exception, but this is my honest opinion.
