All I know is 3/4 of my games this past week have ended in ROTFLstomps 12-3 or worse. Its horrible. Either I'm on a team that sticks together in the first two minutes of the game in a murder ball or I'm on a team that spreads out, fights the enemy in groups of 3 or less, and/or picks the worst spot on the map to defend.

I will definitely have to stop talking **** if I am not in the top 1 or 2 tiers:)

from what i read, it will be default OFF for forum, and ON for youself (probably on main screen ?) What is unclear, if its visible if you press tab, ie if the information will be visible through the match to all.......

If its visible to all during match, then expecting RAGE in chats, while 4 meets 2....... If its not visible, people will anyway say it in chat. The thing is you cant verify their info then ingame. (but can on forum if they make it visible.)


I think it will actually reduce rage, because most ragers are terribads...

I'm very sure that PGI and the moderators have an answer for this kind of bullying that we will see. I am also supporting the idea to delete the option of watching the own tier and the tier of others if someone has bullied others because of comparing their tier to his own. There will be consequences if some members cannot deal with this kind of information in an adult and rational way.

you have no idea... if I'd told you what people I saw only yesterday in my matches. From top tier comp players to so called top tier players, to fellow forum warriors, to lurming matches I haven't seen in weeks...

I even dropped so deep into the tiers that people actually.... how to say... they were nice and friendly to each other! That was unbelievable for me. Maybe I dropped with canadians or so, but people actually were kind and when they died, they didn't *gasp* the team for their own failure!

I'm pretty sure I'm tier 3, and very sure I don't really care. I'd like to play people in or very close to my tier (regardless of what it is), as I _think_ that'll provide closer, more "fun" matches. But I _think_ I'm in 3 now, and that the MM puts me in with 1 thru 5. Because some matches my teammates are more of a threat to rocks and trees and couldn't hit a mech, ANY mech, at all! And some matches I cannot run fast enough to get to SEE the enemy before the rest of my team has demolished the target.

Basically, I hope that after the mess of the initial Steam release wears off all the tiers will be populated enough to have matches with and against mechs just from my tier (whatever that happens to be).

For the past month+ in the public solo queue I have been mastering many chassis that I have not done. It has not always been pretty so I am sure that I am going backwards on the average. King Crabs are a nightmare to master as I found out tonight...

Don't mind, don't care...

Lol, I had to give up on Crabs and Dires. Crawling around like a slug just doesn't work for me.

after i knew that people from the top competitive teams which are very picky about their members may be matched with players who didn't play their first 25 games and it happens after the psr introduction... i don't care of the tiers anymore



Well then you cant read....

it clearly says on the page that a Tier one will never play a tier 4 or 5 and all new players are tier 4.

I want to be a tier 5 solo queue player. 0 expectations on you, so it's all the more rewarding when you clutch a win!



Quite the aspiration there....you want to be lower then people who are playing their first game.

Well i guess the bright side is you can only go up from there!? :P

Not all competitive teams will balance out to strictly T1, really depends on what the individuals do outside of their group queue I suppose.

Say they do all rank T1 though, I don't think it really matters all that much because it sounded like they were going to open the floodgates in group queue anyhow.

I'm sure only about 60% are actually tier 1, but either way i dont get why the OP of that comment worried....like he is Tier 1 or something. :rolleyes:

I'm hoping for a Fisher Price steering wheel icon to go with my anticipated low skill Tier.

I would accept a warhorn that sounds like the bell on a toddler's tricycle.

*bbbbbrrrringg bbbbbrrrrrringgg*

Bonus points if I can start putting streamers on my mech's elbows.

I had some small hope to even be tier 2, but lately solo queue has been an absolute gongshow in regards to my teammates and opponents. So either I'm in tier 3 and getting some bad luck matchmaking wise or I've dropped down to 4 somehow.

I'm an average guy who likes to run around in my locust with quad srm 2... so watch out. I'm Tier 0, the apex of the hierarchy. I am the intersection of the lines that join together to form the triangle. Without me. There is no T1. I am what defines you.

No, but seriously probably T3. I wouldn't be surprised if I was lower.... or higher ;). I don't care really lol. I play for fun, not stats.
