Both US and Euro do one thing wrong. Why the **** can't you wait for a light to confirm the position of the enemy main body before comitting?

2 reasons.



1) There is no guarantee your PUG team's light mechs will actually do this.

2) There is a very short window of opportunity to claim the superior, often central, locations on a map. Hesitate too long, and the match could be over before a shot is even fired.

That is not true. EVERY german is taught english in school, except for those poor eastern souls who had to learn russian. 90% of the german players understand english and I would say a good 70% are abled to articulate themselves. And dont mistake silence for not understanding you. We just don't practice smalltalk here.

No, they lern it, but most still are bad and or forget the most. Hell PISA study even revealed some hardly can do proper german anymore.

To be fair, Putin is more of a man than Obama ever will be. And I'm a Patriot.

That's not saying much considering Obama makes Carter and Bush Jr look like good presidents, and we all know that isn't true. Worst US President in my lifetime hands down.

Death ball is death ball. I'm talking about a static firing line, not a bayonet charge.

A better way to put it, is that I've witnessed half-way 18th Century Warfare in matches with Europeans. They form the firing line and stand in the open, but don't do much past that. In that case, the guerrilla fighters will kick their butts every time.

Lastly, the Napoleon Tactics only work if you have a coordinated team. I've never seen good coordination in my matches with Europeans.

Really? The only firing lines i see in the euro time are waiting behind corners and will take you to valhalla if you decide to push the corner. Trench warfare? well, yes, a lot of that, but that's a WWI thing.
I'm european, but play a lot in the late evening, love brawling and grow used to the murican warfare. It's more fun, but more risky too. After the regional servers event i'm enjoying the pacific rim playstyle, it has a nice balance of agression and caution.

because EU is a clusterf*ck ov various peoples, nearly all nations actually have subs of own peoples and cultures. And so we have more "home feeling" amongst thes peoples since most of these is rather local. While US, the people there are just a big mixed bunch of everthing that flooded over for the entire world. So America don't have peoples, they have people . Except a few very low numbers of natives left.

Any president that can make Carter look like a bad ass you know is horrible.

They probably get tired of waiting for the end of that very long sentence with all the verbs at the very very very end of the line.
The same sentence in German would have the get tired at the end.

Putin's entire PR team focuses on manliness... I think he's compensating for something.

Oh I don't think so. I think he really is all that man. He was KGB. He had people killed for sneezing the wrong way. But... many of our leaders have done the same, too. Just check out the "body count" for various US presidents.

well language is a matter of usage. After Univeristy my english was very good at all, but the lack of speaking it and getting mistakes corrected, it degrades again. Especially when you work somewhere where different EU nationalities speak together with their own broken and half decent english. The result is a mess of english words xD

IMO that's a pretty sad view of how a man is supposed to be.

Anyway, another topic that goes off-topic in a matter of just a few pages... and you people say this place is so good.

I know his wrap sheet. I was implying small **** = angry man, but ya'know. Not much has changed in ol Russia. Putin and the ruling class are just like the Boyars of ages past. Likewise here in the states, except the merchant class rebelled against the nobility and... became a new oppressive ruling class! yay..?
