All the comment is worth .

Stats dont lie

Humans you've crushed do.

Wont respond to another comment like this. I just want people to stop.
I get I've crushed you in some way , Not sure how but behave , Again my stats are awesome so your barking up the wrong tree, But I'ma block you the hate was funny but its just getting sad now .


I'll wager there isn't a single person on these boards that would rather take a LRM boating "hold locks for me while I hide, you idiots" guy like you on their team rather than him.


And aren't you due for another whinequit/uninstall thread? I think it's been at least a few days since your last one.

I always had a positive win loss ratio. Now I constantly drop with a bunch of morons who run into the tunnel and generally just suicide. I often make 30K Cbills a match and my w/l ratio is dropping. It can't be that I arrived at a higher ELO because all the players are dumber than the ones I used to drop with.

I used to just carry matches, but I cannot carry hard enough to get wins with noobs I get stuck with lately. WTF happened?


Welcome to MWO, please enjoy your stay!

No, but on a serious note, this is pretty much what happens once you get to a certain ELO or skill, you start having to carry your team (either as a solo dropper or group player).

The Space Pope most enjoys when he has to kill an entire fresh assault lance because matchmaker decided to give his team four assault mechs that did less than 100 damage each, while the enemy has an assault lance that puts out 400+ damage per mech.

Welcoem to the block list volterin , Not something I do either , Except expect people to know their roles

I'm sorry I upset you o much speaking truth .

You need to get a stronger mind if someone disagrees with you. They get so deep in you head you have to respond to every post negatively because you don't agree with them.

That's you defeated.

Anyhow blocked .

As I said to him it was funny, Bu its got sad.

Hiding posts is amazing.

I would think most people would define defeat as quitting and hiding and refusing to engage in debate to defend your position...

Wrong Aspirin....
a perfectly balanced match will go down to the wire 70% of the time- or more.
The other 30% will comprised of rolls where the series of mistakes made will domino a win, or a loss.

Fact Check http://en.wikipedia....o_rating_system but you knew that......................right?


That's pretty much the opposite of what the Devs have told us from their data.

I know... and since he's usually on the red team when I drop lately, that's just fine with me.

If he's on my team, I recognized long ago one of the surer signs of imminent loss is someone like him opening the game with "hold locks for me or we lose" so I just resign myself to trying to carry harder...

Personally I'd rather wait 30 mins for a game .Then have somebody useless incompetent and not trying to win on my team.


This game would die if there were only 30min queue times.

I love when people ask for you to "Hold Lock"....who isn't doing this? And If they dont understand what that means then they aren't going to use the R button either.

But as a troll move....when i see people say dumb stuff like "LRM 60, Atlas hold locks" (AKA do the work for me guys) I usually dont lock a SINGLE target...just to spite them.

I'm saying give people the choice not make it mandatory .

Have a option in "options"

Where people can chose wait times or balance, Which they want to take priority,

Problem solved.

Those who don't mind entering fights that were over before a shot was fired wont care.

And those that do mind can wait longer.

That has nothing to do with my post. You say it's incorrect that close ELO results in more lopsided victories but the Devs have said according to their data close ELO matches have a lot of stomps. Do you have any data from MWO to support that claim or are we supposed to assume the Devs are lying to us?

Why would the devs not want to admit the playerbase isn't big enough to offer a balanced game most of the time , So claim that the most balanced battles often result in stomps , Hm?
