This is just one match I got 160k and 2,000xp which is low for 9 assists.

Terrible mech

....and I've been driving it enough that my snap shot is coming back.




Yeah I don't want to spend to fix my Atlas, the Jenner is basically hopeless, and the Cat is terribad.

Rocking it with the -4G though, I heart my AC20 loving.

:edit

That game put me in the top 50.......crap, starting to feel the urge to go to the liquor store and commence a marathon.

****.

I'm just going to play out the event and call it good.

I was starting to work on getting XP for my Zeus which this event has sidetracked.

I have a GI and Huggin that I haven't built yet, but nothing really pressing as far as grinding goes. Got my 20 in a couple hours this morning, I have another Hula chicha now.

I never use the cockpit items so they're worthless clutter to me. I mostly wanted the 2 Million Cbills at 15 points because I spent 9Million doing upgrades to one of my Zeus and that's a recipe for going broke quick when I usually play once a week for about 2-4 hours.

impressive. 20 wins in 120 minutes = 6 minute matches with 100% win rate.

You never figured out how to power zerg, I don't know exactly how long it took, but it was my first pot of coffee.

This weekend has made me appreciate just how poorly the Catapult chassis has aged, unfortunately. I really hope the extra data points encourage them to take another pass at that chassis.

Playing this event just makes me aggravated that my Founder's mech doesn't have super quirks too.


Having fairly balanced quirks when so many other mechs do not, does not make a fun game.

I have owned almost every mech in the game.... but most just collect dust.

Same, I haven't any of the new MC reinforcement mechs I've bought three of the c-bill reinforment clans, but the rest, most just sit there, while I skill up the next 'batch'

[InspectorG]

Do Founders Jenners come with LRM5s?

Cuz im seeing quite a bit of that today.

odd while I haven't broken 900 with my Catapult this weekend i've had a 5 kill game and most matches have been 400 plus, I geuss the people i'm playing with don't duck so well

I've been tempted, with how poor the hitreg on the 4s seems to be, and how weak the chassis is to direct fire.

Personally I've seen lots with dual LargeLas, which I proceed to chase down and murder.

Took me 22 or 23 matches.

Apparently I started just as the Elo YoYo was showing me favor. Because right after that, I lost about 6 in a row, then have been alternating 6-7 mostly wins, with 6-7 mostly losses.

I'm just happy my preferred Founder's mech has logical and sensible quirks.... something that are in short supply!

No - made the mistake of choosing a Cat-C1 back in the day, figured I'd be a heavy pilot; From about a weekd after & ever since, wished I'd have taken a Jenner or even a Hunchie.

I made the same mistake but took the Atlas. Wish I had the Hunchback or Jenner too

[Bloody]

both my Jenner , Hunchback and Catapult sat doing nothing, even their engines went to other better mechs, No change here, the Founder mechs are mainly thrash.

[Bishop Steiner]

just drop this in with the pile of other "Useless Founders Mechs Matches", lol.

That was actually a lot closer and more tense than the final numbers indicate. At least on my side of the map, it was me and 2 largely neutered Assault mechs at the end. Opfor was LRm crazy and well enough placed we really weren't effectively able to just push in.

Me and a Warhawk went off the reservation and started flanking and harassing. Drew a CN9-AH to me. He learned who the big ac20 dog in MWO is (hint..Hunchy! ) and finished him with moderate damage. Was able to lay some more hurt on them, and we were trading off, 1 kill for 1 kill. They push in, and I open up another Centy, teammates kill him. Then comes the bullrush. I kill the Blackjack first...and the enemy Warhawk overheats. I feed him ac20s till he stops twitching. Their raven charges me. And goes splat, followed by their Atlas. About now, their mostly intact Direwolf crests theta, like a bull that's scented blood. I scoot around the corner, and barely make it, cored out pretty much everywhere. My 2 teammates are trying to tie him up (Sadly, the Stalker who was already cored and legged, fell at this point), but they might be in even worse shape than me. I swing back around and slam my last 3 ac20 rounds into the DWF, taking off his right torso and cratering his CT. He charges me again, and all I can do is slam my throttle to its stops, in full reverse, firing off my lasers as fast as they can cycle, twisting and twitching like I'm having a seizure in between....1 volley...2 volley... and finally, on the 3rd, down the beast drops at my feet, game over.

I tell you, that is the type of close match the MM should be trying to give us. Easily the best fight all weekend for me, and I've actually had a number of noteworthy matches.

Kudos to the OpFor and my Team. No one should feel shame....it was a great match!

I had a few good run ins last night with the atlas. Midway through the match, 6-6 assault. I charge in with the Atlas at around 80-90% and mop up a couple mechs in quick succession.

This was my first match since CB in my Atlas. I later switched out the MPLAS for another LPLAS by going down to a 325 STD.

[Screech]

Not at all but it did remind me of the one reason I got my founders Jenner.

Initially the only way you could master our the Jenner experience tree was to get the founders Jenner.

Ahh, memories...
