No idea who there are, first time I've seen them in the FRR drops and I made it clear I felt it was a pretty lame tactic to be using.

Going to just assume they will carry on like that all evening so have fun sending streaks their way!

But yeah, sorry a team set up shop that doesn't want to actually fight you clanners.

what? IS using lights to rush? never seen before...

[sycocys]

It's not a tactic that is taught or employed by any of the FRR team's I've run with up until this one showed up from wherever they came from.

Space Vikings like to fight, so my guess is they are mercs from planet Lamesauce.

A very common thing when facing Kurita is the infamous light rush (the broken hit reg certainly doesn't help in this regard or that the servers can't handle 12 light mechs well)

Weak and lost

Say what you will freebirth, your nation was the first to fall. Nobody's gonna let you live that down. Despite your second lease as a nation, everyone else has a 1up on you guys.

what are you apologizing for? its the fault of nobody but PGI, the point is to win. i dont know one single unit that has not used a rush tactic in one way or another.

It's been quite a while since I've seen a light rush. It used to be so prevalent in the early days of CW when people actually cared about map gains. Now that most people are more concerned with getting cbilld and LP we don't see them as much because although they let you take down gens rapidly, you get nothing for it.

Seems we recently acquired at least one unit that still thinks the map is worth more than the match rewards. It just makes the matches boring and unrewarding for everyone.

Everyone feels rewarded in a different way. I feel more rewarded when my Clan takes another planet than when we win a really close battle getting a lot of c-bills. I could get no rewards beside loyalty points and i would still play CW mostly. Standard battles are pretty boring now. And well.. I understand there are no rewards for owning planets yet, but where are now all those people who could not wait for CW to have their battles matter something?

It might be that i am a loyalist and for me c-bills are purely a means to get new OmniMechs for CW rather than my goal.

PokèMech is boring after a while, you know.. I would rather play Space Risiko.

I feel more rewarded by barely losing a hard game than by winning a planet.

As i said, everyone has different ideas.

My only issue is that the public queque is there for a reason, CW should be about winning planets after all..

[XSurusX]

Cyclone I think your opinion is a small minority, but by all means more power to you! I thought map gains were cool too at first, but they really don't offer any means of progression since the system has been working through so many kinks. We're definitely making progress and PGI is going at a good pace, but right now I just don't see any incentive to pick one planet over the other. I just go wherever it's easiest to get a match.

To me it's more about the quality of the match itself than winning or losing. I really don't care one way or the other if I win or lose, as long as I have a good match with respectful opponents!

[CyclonerM]

Well, that is kind of sad. #CWFail

At least you still enjoy the matches, however. There are some who do not even enjoy them anymore.

EDIT: 5000 posts! I do not know if i should have a party or start worrying..
