I will be dropping in matches randomly throughout the work day today in the solo queue. Good hunting out there :)



Oh, how I wish I could say the same thing!

By the way, there are so many players on the weekends this is going to be more like the Great Dev Snipe Hunt. Even if you know one is on the other team, how the heck do you find them? Going to be a lot of pure luck of the draw. Still....pretty fun.

Since when does being in the solo queue entail being grouped up with Jonty Roodnick?


Isn't that Leeeroy Jenkins' cousin?

Well thats not good. I hear PGI's work day consists of getting in at 9am, lunch from 11am-4pm then heading home at 5pm.

:P

Team kills don`t count.

Reading comprehension is your friend. :ph34r:


oops sorry, I thought Team Kills were if you were in a Group/Team... a Non PUG and your Team/Group got a Kill.

Well, I am a European player and thanks to my trustworthy Jenner I just managed to kill Mr. Matthew Craig. Granted, it wasn't the most honorable kill in my humble MWO career, but it's the result that counts. ;)

Q- If I kill a dev AND he's on my team will there be a penalty or just an, "oh well?" Because if I drop and he's standing next to me I'm gonna stick an AC/20 under his chin.

Does this mean I need to lower my Elo ASAP to have a chance to fight the devs? Time to pilot trial Clan mechs then.

Your ELO isn't that good, I played against you last weekend.

You also get a banner, "killed by a dev, what a shame".

The rarity of seeing PGI in any match makes me wonder why bother?


Can only assume that they'll be dropping in game more often than usual.

It's an interesting challenge. I'm somewhat apprehensive though. On the few occasions in the past where I've encountered Devs, the games have all been horrible - at no fault of the Devs. People just got very distracted with them being there.
Now with them having targets on their back, I can see things becoming quite the clusterdev[redacted].

Anywho, see you all on the battlefield this weekend.

People need to stop living life while constantly worrying about the "what ifs".
Just play the game, hunt the Devs, and have fun.
If you see somebody doing something stupid like that - Screencap and send in to Support.
