What ever... but you can't argue with the rest of what I said. I guess if I did not not PUG as much I might have more fun. But thats the OP and my point. If you play a few times a month doing a few PUG drops, the gameSUX a$$.

When finding a game most % are assaults/heavy with mediums and lights last. Game starts, the sky is loaded with IS & clan LRM's (weird huh?) A few ECM mechs running around.

Now let me guess, I'm suppose to get destroyed by LRM's every game until my ELO lets me play against teams who use more PPC's and quad AC's. Really? a game where your nut to butt on an ECM mech or a hill is FUN? Really?

The LRM's where buffed to sell clan mech packs. I really don't care but don't tell me this game is more fun now then it was in closed beta. If that was the case, you'd see way less cash grabs just selling mechs that have more alpha strike capability.

*laff* getting destroyed routinely by LRMs? You are a founder? Hahahaha. You haven't figured out how to beat lrms yet?

Didnt Musashi have a tactic of 'death by a thousand papercuts'? When the above didnt work of course.

No. That refers to a Chinese form of torture.

Like more AMS on mechs or chaff pods.

Of course, from what I've noticed, I'm often the only mech on the team with even a single AMS.

Everyone else is using that tonnage to milk the last extra bit out of their guns, armor, and MAYBE heat sinks.

I'd like to count on ECM cover, but lights use their ECM for LL Snipe lone wolfing only.

Psst! I only PUG and I am having a whole lot of fun. Maybe your groupie buddies have been carrying you all this time and it shows when you go slumming.

I'm not the one that routinely gets killed by a marginal weapon system and I certainly don't complain much about them. Nope, I am usually killed mostly by direct fire weapons. Maybe I should cry about lasers and ppcs and AC rounds hitting me since that's what I usually die to.

Goodnight ladies play time is over and so is my shift.

[GutterBoy5]

Blah blah blah

Dribble dribble

Cry baby

Use radar dep or ECM or BOTH

Maybe try using terrain even.all maps have areas of cover . Like Crimsons platform, frozens endless builds or tunnel even. Therma numerous mountains ,

Or use the nitro enhanced nano atlas( firestarter) then you be truly super.

Those who cry about Clan LRMs never had a serious thought about mounting AMS. Couple it with the AMS overload module.

HEY HEY WHOA WHOA

Dis the QQing all you want,

BUT DON'T BE SAYING SH*T BOUT MY WHEEL BRO

[Wolfways]

I think what many are forgetting is that the fact that there are those of us who play daily, don't use any LRM countermeasures at all, know how to use the terrain, and don't have problems with LRM fire doesn't mean that it's actually possible

You don't.

In the Pug environment you really are at the mercy of the Pug dice and some matches the other team is light on LRM's while you are heavy on ECM and other matches is vice versa and not a whole lot else you can do besides go pop.

Then just reset and roll the dice again in another game.

*shrug* stuff happens.

Are you saying that LRM's can be OP because out of probably around 20+ matches per day i can be killed by them once every few weeks?
Solo queue only, and I don't care who has ECM (unless I'm using LRM's) or LRM's.

[Sorbic]

Buff direct fire and nerf indirect fire. Oh and fix the inc missile message. All too often it doesn't trigger until I'm taking a face full of bowling pins from 500m out. On that note, make it so the message only triggers when the missiles are within 650-700m instead of at launch. As it is now the 1000m thing only works when a friendly is forcing the target into the open or you get really lucky.

[Gorgo7]

LRM should be fire and forget. Acquire a target, fire.
No keeping your target locked once the missiles are flying. Should your target break the lock (of the missiles) while in flight well and good for him. They should travel at twice the speed they do now.
You should not be able to lock indirectly unless there is a NARC of TAG involved.

As it stands now;
-they are a heavy weapon system, they do a form of splash damage, their rate of fire is slow, they require copious amounts of ammo, they give away your position to all who would see.

Moan, groan, pull hair. LRM, LRM, LRM...save it for the Daily Whine post!

2. Hide for the majority of the match - Notice you must behind cover that is x2.5 times taller than your mech or else it will just plow into you over the cover. Now all you have to worry about is them planting Artillery on those spots.

Thanks for the laugh dude. Seeing the game through the eyes of someone who obviously doesn't know how to play is always LOL worthy.

Thanks again!
