PGI, I know you are IS loyalists and hate Clans, you said it yourself repeatedly. But what you did is getting out of hand.


I keep seeing this thrown around. Can I have a link to where they said this?

Russ said it on podcast #33.7. It's hard to find because you have to look into the magical land between never and bullshit.

It's a skill.

He said they said it repeatedly. So it has to be somewhere, right? Should I go find bottle a unicorn fart to help me find it?

Personally the idea that a bunch of clanners stood around in the open while getting cut down herping and derping amoungst themselves, and then came over to the forums afterwards to cry about is pretty funny.

The closest to that I've ever seen is somewhere a few of the devs said they consider themselves IS players. Seems like it was on a devlog. I don't think the Clans were even out at the time.

I've said it before and I say it again, as long as IS players complain about Clans being OP and Clan player complaining about IS being OP the balance can't be that bad.

And folks, if you're sick of the whining, come to the FRR, we don't do that.

Actually the IS is sooooooooooooooooo over powered that the all the clans are gaining world's, and that all the IS powers who border the clans are losing world's by the boatloads.

Every Single Clan has gained worlds since the start of the invasion and the only IS powers that have gained worlds are those who aren't at risk of clan invasion.

Hmmmm.. so unbalanced, much wow, CLANS!

Sooooo..... they never ACTUALLY said, "we hate clans." Correct?

That would be correct. No one within PGI is an "IS loyalist", rather there are some devs that have favorite mechs. I think this is something that gets completely misconstrued by players and brought out to explain their own faults and bad play.

My favorite 'Mech is the Bushwacker. Am I an IS loyalist now?

Mordin Ashe,

Don't trash hiim guys. He like many clanners are still recovering from their addiction to NERF.Their last hit, was the sweet TDR 9S NERF. Word on the street (pgi forums) that this NERF was some powerful stuff and addicted thousands of clanners. Once clanners get the taste of the NERF high they feel powerful and need another hit of that NERF to maintain the high. I expect like many NERF abusers he too will end up working the streets (PGI forums) in the never ending quest for the next NERF high. We should never hold them in contempt for the NERF high is a disease and they need our help. Even IS folks get NERF addicted (see the NERF Timberwolf endemic our IS addicted never seem to get quite enough of this one).

Look at the map. Those few planets we have left, its as if we clans get eradicated.... not.

Balance still favors the clans and while its true that IS has more variety, clan lasers are still the way to go on a competitive level. Especially now that the 9S got changed. Maybe it is because me and my unit is mostly meeting pug groups but we win more matches than we lose.

IS is not OP only because some don't know how to counter certain builds.

The NS ERLL first wave shows the need for a balanced drop deck, we played them the other night and countered it by rushing back into them with light mechs to take advantage of the heat that they were generating with the lasers. The fix for things isn't to ask them to be nerfed but to find a way tactically to counter it.

BTW thanks to NS for showing me some things on Boreal I never knew you could do....

At this rate clanners will demand IS is removed from the game entirely because they can't handle the thought of losing.

What exactly do you want us to use? Bows and arrows? Rocks and sticks? We are using the exact same thing you have been using since Clans dropped and you cant handle it?

True story. We became overly aggressive and cocky ... ignored our flanks allowing the lights to do what they do best. Ideally what we should have done is collapsed back towards each other and focused on pouring damage onto you, but we sometimes suffer from "victory disease" and seriously underestimated you. Great job on your part. Even if we had executed better it was going to be a hard match.
