I probably won't read, what you'll answer me, so don't waste your trolling skills via gloating over me. I just need to tell it. I've taken a break from this game and played some other games. And when I returned back to play MWO on this weekend, I realized, how painful this game is. It's not hard - it's just has terrible design.
Every single second while playing this game, you're fighting not against your enemies - but against the game itself: against overcomplicated weapon mechanics, against unbalance, against terrible map design, against awful hitreg, against invulnerable lights, against lagsheilds, against JJ-sheilds, against stupid matchmaker, etc. It's just too painful - I can't take it anymore.
I just miss and want to go back to the games, where if I do everything right - I get the right result. I haven't made final decision yet, but I'm about to refund everything I can and quit this game forever.
Two things ... first I think this game is too easy. This version of Mechwarrior/Battletech doesnt even have ammo bay fires, energy to route to weapon systems, generators that can be destroyed or coolant lines that have to be rerouted. Imagine playing the game and when your mech takes damage you have to reroute things to keep your mech working. That is what playing in the Tesla pods was like back in the 90s.
Second, you arent doing the right things and getting bad results. You are doing bad things and getting bad results. Now sometimes the MM will just give you lemons on your team. If you had a match score over 100 and did over 400 damage, I would agree that you were making awesome decisions while being saddled with bad players and getting numbers like that.
