You have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that JFP is responsible for the downfall of the FRR and how JFP constantly beats FRR units in CW. as the FRR obviously has no units you can't beat.

oh wait, there is only a single FRR pilot in all of those SS.

EPIC FAIL!

Hence my original observation that few remaining FRR players seem to be participating in CW. That's why I asked whether or not the remaining units in the FRR held private matches against each other to keep the community engaged and together. A question you seemed to gloss over/outright ignore and went off on a wild tangent - trolling me with a personal and rather baseless accusation that I wanted to go "easy mode."

Let me break it down for you, I wanted to become more competitive and could not find what I was looking for within the FRR. I applied to a competitive and reputable mercenary unit. My goal in that unit is to one day become good enough to join one of their competitive teams.

You want to talk easy mode? Living in fantasy land is easy - becoming a better player so that you can actually carry a pug team against an organized group of skilled players is not.

Soft EZmoders keep EZmoding in your own faction threads. The real Vikings are on the warpath. Dawn and whatever wolf planet is next. The pathetic attempts to derail our warpath proves clanners are concerned.

At risk of being flamed pointlessly, how can you claim to have a "warpath" when you are down to a handful of worlds (last I checked). That is not really something anyone on our end of the bargain should be concerned about.

Is that why the Hub is so sparsely populated these days, because you're "on the warpath?" I can tell you're still relatively new to the community there because speaking from personal experience I can definitively say that the Hubs' population is WAY down compared to it's former glory.

Yeah, might have something to do with people leaving.

That you clanners need to come to another faction's thread to troll it shows a pathetic need for attention.
Or it must be you guys couldn't hack it as vikings.
Vikings don't need to be the flavor of the week to have fun.
Going on the warpath is an attitude and has nothing to do with how many planets we have.

Also by EZmoders I meant the clanners. Respect to the Kurita.
You like the FRR are hardmode.
You use the same tech, you fight mostly the same people.

Of all the IS, I respect Kurita the most, because they are fighting the real conflict just like us, IS vs clan.
When Kurita takes a clan world, I am overjoyed too.
No beef with Kurita and wish you guys progress driving clanners out.

Well considering I was making a valid statement which one of your Kurita partners seems to agree with rather than to merely troll, you could at least attempt to provide a rational answer to both myself and the Kurita rather than avoiding the point as I am genuinely curious about your "warpath".

[Leeroy Mechkins]

The entire difference of FRR faction with others is the players don't give up.
Surrounded by the clan factions, only tough-minded players join and adversity polishes those that remain to be even tougher.

Gloating about planets and number of players will come and go with the tides, flavor of the month will change.
But FRR knows that each fellow viking is worthy of being in battle with and that is a far more awesome thing.

Now clanners buzz off to your EZmode crutches, its only a matter of time before whatever mechanics you are relying on is nerfed. If you rely on victory to feel good, you count on a fickle thing.
We have mead to drink.

Since you insist on being abrupt even while answering a politely phrased question I am at a loss to even fathom why you would think our lopsided game mechanics will be fixed when our quirk pass begins in a week. Since you are so vehement about pretending you are hard done by I cannot wait to see what your start preaching once we get our quirks. I truely envy you for being so blinded by your own pride as to believe it will only become better for you. If only your baseless concepts had any morsel of truth to them.

And as you will undoubtedly hop on your milk crate and whinge further about how I am trolling your thread, or some such nonsense; I asked a question of you. A sensible, polite question - which you answered, thank you. However you simply couldn't help but thumb your nose in shameless arrogance. As such consider this my reply to that arrogance.

I do apologise to the more decent of the FRR who I have interrupted. Also good luck with holding the remnants of your space - I honestly mean that, you guys are doing great clinging to life!

[Leeroy Mechkins]

Ah I see, a honorable Jade Falcon. No beef with you. There are objective clanners who know they are playing the OP side and acknowledge it. That I respect.

I do not think that the lopsided game mechanics will be fixed with the quirk pass.
Probably its just to make the less useful clan mechs more useful to reduce the boredom from TBR and SCR spam.

Pls keep hitting Dawn vikingbros.
If we win it, cool.
Even if we don't, we tied up lots of clanners from attacking or defending elsewhere.

7:32 AM GMT+1.Currently, I only have the option for defend 1 single planet I don't have attack lanes on any other planets. And supposedly I'm about to defend a planet from IS players because I had to adjust tonnage to 240. WTF!

NEW OSLO available again. Only planet available to attack. Pls queue up for that.

Fellow space vikings, you do realise you're making as5es of yourselves, right?

Tarogato, you are a name among our people. Where you would lead, many would follow. Now as much as any time our Republic needs you. I'm an old man and my wits slow, so speak plainly, what troubles you? Tell us, so perchance our small band of shieldbrothers and shieldmaids can make amends or elsewise set your mind at ease. Here, try some of my wife's mead. She makes it with a hint of lemon.

I read the thread... And damn what a bunch of baby I see... Between the guy using Screenshoot to proove JF are not to mess with and the one proud of using LRM's and daring to insult the rest of EZmode player...

Seriously, it is just a game guys! Your taking this way too seriously now.

Did the spirit of camaraderie completly disapearred? When you congratulate eachother at the end of the battles or had fun talking with the ennemy during the battle? Exchanging jokes?


Guys, seriously?

(has for the vote. Come find the Wolves if you want, we will happily push you back! )

I agree with this. I get a little heated under the collar as of late due to the wins we have on planet sectors seemingly disappearing like so much smoke from the sheer numbers of Steiners coming at us right now, but at least those pilots are actually playing MechWarrior and keeping the servers populated.

This is Beta after all, I am sure PGI will find a solution to population issues as we move forward. The development trend has always favored upwards so I will have to take my lumps and enjoy the drops we can get in the meantime. The good games keep coming and the c-bills flow freely so taking a step back should do me some good.


Apologies to anyone in my drops as of late I may have cut with a sharp tongue. Not your fault.

[Leeroy Mechkins]

This is internal discussion by FRR members of our own direction.
If you are not FRR and come to this thread, expect to get sharp words because this thread has absolutely nothing to do with you.
It should be rightfully assumed that clanners in this thread are just trolls.
