I present to you the worst stomp I have ever seen in a PUG match:

Posted Image

REALLY glad I wasn't on the receiving end of this one. No disconnects, no glitches, no premades or sync drops, just a legitimate PUG thrashing. It all started with me catching a Raven standing still sniping and spotting for his team about 40 seconds in, and obliterating him before he even had a chance to run. Seconds after that first death all hell broke loose, and I started seeing kill messages popping up like whack-a-moles. Less than two minutes later it was all over. I actually felt kind of bad for the enemy, and wanted to laugh at the absurdity at the same time. I knew I was going to screenshot this, so I waited till everyone but myself had disconnected to add the "#getrekt!" to the image for comic effect.

Upon doing the maths, the highest scorer on our team and myself put together did more damage than their entire team did collectively.

Enjoy the lolz!

Wow, that is impressive.

Nine 'mechs failing to break 100 damage, with one just scraping by at 112.

The sad part? I've seen more matches like this (although obviously not as bad as this one) the last week than I've done during any other week over the last three years.

The improved hit reg really exaggerates the snowball effect.

Out of curiosity...
...why do you censor the names on the scoreboard but not in the chat?

Oh, looks like I didn't think of that. Editing it now. Normally It wouldn't matter because you wouldn't know who did what with the scoreboard names censored, but since the whole team did so bad...

Edit: Done, with my apologies.

There were no AFKs, they were all moving all match. I also doubt I was fighting a whole 3 enemy lances made up of 4 year-olds. At lest I hope not. The poor kids would likely be traumatized. :unsure:

I'm even more interested in how you can only do 2 damage in a Stalker. I can see getting obliterated in one shot as a light or even a low-tonnage medium, but an assault? My guess is he was a missile boat with an XL and he ran away instead of fighting when it got hairy.

Batch of new players just out of their cadet periods? But then a few of them have group tags :blink:

Ouch. That must have been painful...

That's an impressive pug stomp. I had a game in a group match with a similar outcome recently. Not sure about there being any disconnects.

Posted Image

These poor fellas lasted 11 seconds longer than yours (must have been that group coordination). :P Looks like they were able to make a little more overall damage in that time. My team was killing them so fast I could barely even get a shot in. Ended up only doing three alphas in my adder.

Yeah, well, what about it? Not really a big deal atp. We are talking about a PUG match here.

I have been in a lot of matches like that. I have been on the winning side and the loosing side.

I look at the final scores and say, " oh well, sh_t happens", because that's how it is when you play PUG matches.

That is one of those humbling losses where you question why you were born.

whoa. The MM demanded a sacrifice on that one.

How can you have mechs with 0 damage unless something was wrong with their computer/connection or afk? :huh:

Hey hey hey. My 5 year old killed an Urbie and had 400 points of damage while I was AFK. Lets not insult the children now.

It's not that rare, i've seen too many matches like that. Going both ways (like a bi-sexual), my team, enemy team... it's ridiculous. People say MM works, i say if it worked we wouldnt see matches like that. PGI needs to start recording match scores and MM needs to work off of that.

What i want to know though, and i ask it all the time... sometimes to myself, sometimes in-game chat - where do all these... just... god awful players keep coming from? For the games population to be so low, and not exactly growing very fast... what's up with these uberbads? I'm honestly curious, how do you fail to even fire off a single shot? Either the game is exploding into popularity and we just don't know it, and tons of people are joining and being cannon fodder, the only other explanation is... i don't know, aliens?

I once 1-shotted an atlas across Forest Colony within 30 seconds of match start (random cockpit shot with 2ERPPCs+PPCs). Strange and incredibly unlucky things can happen.

Probably they just were too focused on trying to get away to shoot back though. Where they thought they were getting away to is a different question.

Come now, I played MW 3 when I was a 4 year old and didn't do that bad.



In response to OP, Matchmaking is working perfectly. Whatever you experienced was actually an illusion.

I suppose anything can happen, but multiple people had 0 damage. Having that many head shots from across the map is something special!
