you just shafted all light pilots, most mediums, and a few heavies.
I prefer the quick side of things, but that kind of points? yeah right, not with your damage heavy score calculation.

good job.

oh, and check out the people fixing their scores in CW.
yeah, well thought out.
:/

oh yeah,
since mech roles were never implemented either,
oh nevermind.

So far I have all the non CW 300s and 4 400s PUGing is it up in a Wang and an Enforcer. Not that hard in the lighter 'Mechs if you take the time to work your advantages. Bit surprising to see so few out there.

Yeah, I think this event has been quite telling as far as match reward balance between weight classes is concerned. Sure, it's an event, and things will be back to normal in a few days, but it's an interesting look into what people run when it really matters.

So you need to reliably get a 300/400+ match score -- what do people bring? Typical game this weekend: 4 assaults (mostly 100-tonners), 4 heavies (mostly 70-75 tonners), 3 mediums (55 tonners), and a single (30-35 tonner) light. Mean mech tonnage around 70 tons. Not exactly a well-balanced adaptation of BT in my view.

I think somewhere along the way there needs to be a complete paradigm shift as far as match reward calculation. A couple points for "protected light/medium" won't do if somewhere around 90% comes from damage/kills.

Got my hightest score in a blackjack. But it's probably easier to consistently score high in a heavy.

Still waiting for those two maps I need to pop up...

My frustration with the randomness required for this event is reaching a boiling point... think it'll be leading up to a mwo-break at this rate.

I gave up. Having bad matches in rows due to the introduction of PSR
Frustrating somehow, I never had so many stomps during the last months than in the past few hours.
