In the group queue.

Got it again and again today. In a row. No other map. Just the Bog.

I know the Elder Gods are feasting on my anguish.

So we decided to stop playing for today.



Incredible hitreg issues with lasers, SRMs and ACs. The impassable terrain, the places where you get stuck, the twigs created of adamantium. It was just too much.

Lol. The twigs are not adamantium.


They're neutronium, hence their ability to be simultaneously indestructible and unyielding to speeding battlemechs

7 in a row for me the other day, and never once was I in a brawler mech.

It's that sort of thing that really makes you start to hate a map, heh.

I love the bog. Ever time I get it I hear tools swamp song in my head. Cause there's gonna be a brawl....and murder. Lots of it

[Mirumoto Izanami]

The Bog is brawl friendly, and my mechs like it.

Map asset vomit map can be ok, but not all in a row. I do not actually mind the concept of a difficult to traverse map, I think it is just the way it can be so inconsistent about it.

The logs for instance, OK, they block my path. Maybe those 1 inch thick branches reaching out to the side of them shouldnt stop my lasers from penetrating through, but I can get the code issue with that.

Then there is those steps up to the raised platforms. They improved them. I still find myself stopped dead in my tracks for no apparent reason on them. I could see having a penalty like moving on a slope does, but it feels like all or nothing on those steps, and that is silly.

The playability of the map, tactically, is a whole different thread, but mostly in solo land it is pug lottery > all even after VOIP on that map. More stomps, and simultaneously more extra close matches happen for me on that map then any other.

The bog is getting up there with River Sh!tty in hated map for me.

[Koniks]

There are more positions on the map than just the lily pad, c3/b3 hill, c4/d4 hill, and the c5/d5 plateaus.

You can avoid a lot of the irritating features with a different strategy.

[Destructicus]

I like it
I just can't stand the terrible, terrible hit boxes
Makes my gauss adder stress out.

Yet another reason to build a multirole mech... So you can be ready for anything.

I don't seem to get it more than the others now, however, PGI please make more maps for regular match. Everyone doesn't play CW....

Ever since I was a small child, this particular syntax error has annoyed me.

"Everyone doesn't play CW" = 0 people play CW

"Not everyone plays CW" = some number greater than 0 plays CW, but not everyone

[El Bandito]

I play a lot of LRM mechs and I hate the Bog, but... ...



I really shouldn't hate it, I should embrace it with passion.

[LordKnightFandragon]

I hate bog cuz it only revolves around the 2 center hills.....and its not that big either. and trees and **** all over the place.
