I fixed it dude my bad I ment 10

I knew what you meant I was just messing with you. I get the OP's point though at first I thought he was just against rush in tactics, but then he elaborated more and yea that kind of rushing in is pretty pointless. I do rush in a lot, either to start a push or just to get into the action, I am pretty impatient. Sometimes it works out to my advantage though this was from a match today

Not the 6500 I wanted but good enough for a rush that surprisingly didnt end in me dying.

I'm playing PUG only and I rarely encounter situations as described here.

Either there must be a large ELO gap between pilots within the team or the players reporting here have a low ELO by them self and are therefore mixed with new or not so skilled players.

Not sure if this is happening in MWO, but I have seen in other MMO.

A nation will flood his opponent's player base with alt accounts, which either do nothing or suicide during nation war, greatly reducing the strength of his opponent.

Probably worst I've seen is was just yesterday:

- Conquest on Alpine
- We have 3 out of the 5 checkpoints with over 700 CPs, one Kitfox left on our team with cored red CT and 3 guys left on enemy team. None of the enemy team is nearby or knows where he is. Victory is imminent.
- Me to Kitfox: "You're last guy left man, go hide and we'll win"
- Kitfox: targets nearest enemy, runs towards said enemy....and dies and we lose
- Me to Kitfox: "Dude WTF!"

Yay for free stuff and all, but I'm seeing some very bizarre behaviour from friendly pugs which is causing me to lose about 80% of my games during this event so far and it's getting extremely frustrating.

Check faction tags, that's synch drop behavior. There is always stupid too but many times a bad synch will give their buddies the win.

You can fight a whole lot longer if you don't rush in and die like a jackass however.

Yes, but sometimes its fun, and some of us here actually play this game to have fun.

Depends Fup.

If someone is in a Locust I can forgive a 100 damage game. They may have simply been unlucky and got dual-gaussd from across the map.

If someone is in a FSR-A, however, they'd better do at least 400+.

But yeah. ..all too often I see pug Dire Wolves doing like 100 damage and I have to think "How?? That mech should sneeze and do double that damage! "

Whenever I see a player with under 100 damage, I has a sad.


(Although I prefer to have an absolute bare minimum of 200 damage to not be ashamed).

wish it were true. I'd rather team up with mindless AI only programmed to run straight forward guns blazing than some o fthe players I've seen on here lol

Agreed! Predictable stupid is preferable over random stupid.

dont know, I rarely see new players and typically non of my matches have LRMs....Which I miss since it would help out in TONS of my matches!!!

Typically the mechs in my matches all have paint jobs and are the most expensive mechs in the game.
