After the hotfix all I see is premade IS drops on planets and it's impossible to stop them winning with pugs... What the hell happened to the clans?

Pts will make the clans even more OP, so they are hanging out there to stroke their egos.

Clan mechs op please nerf.
Ok seriously... do you really expect to stop IS premades with clans pugs?
Certainly happens some time when you have a bunch of good pugs facing a crappy premade but its defenitely not the norm.

I think the question is rather: What happened to everybody except MS? And I would assume the answer is "They quit."

We definitely quit. No time to stroke the egos of the IS when money is calling my name.

Player leagues are in full swing right now.

Probably depends a lot on which faction you're in.

I think Jade Falcons got tired of CW.

Wolves are still here. We're always looking for more people to fill out our roster.

While PGI finished their polishing for steam they haven't added anything new to CW for a good 6 months, letting the game mode wither and die. With the announcement of scouting missions not being released till sometime before the end of the first quarter of next year most units just said **** it.

Balanced is hosed. 2 op clan mechs are the best mechs, yet IS erll dominate clan erll in every category now in CW..... that says it all in a nutshell. Pugs vs teams with meta quirked and P2W mechs.. CW is not fun for anyone but the 12 man meta built team now. Dead game mode, soon dead game. Sad, I put 5 years and over 500$ into this hoping they'd get it right someday. They are too busy planning their next cash grab/mech release.

I don't think I'm ready to declare "Clans OP." Lore is out the window and quirks are all one-sided on the Inner Sphere, and light mechs are incredibly resilient for being light mechs...

Clans as factions are still here, but lots of pugs. The major units are getting exhausted trying to be on every night. :/

These forums opened almost exactly 4 years ago, November 2011. If, like me, you bought your founders package on first day it was possible, you spent your first dollars on this game on June 19th 2012. Five years ago it was November 2010.

What's needed is an event called the eights

This event would be designed for 8 man strike teams,

the other members would be pugs/solos/newbs

The goal would be for newbs and pugs to join organized strike teams so that the good qualities and leadership
Of the teams can rub off on the newbs/pugs

There would be a unit leader board with with the top units Clan an IS sides would get a unit tag on one planet for the remainder of phase 2 (call it a strong hold for that unit)

Also members of said unit (weather they where on the top team or not would receive the next mech purchased if they choose to buy a Mech, one week in advance of everyone else)
For the solo player I would love to see top gun award and maybe some type of voting that units could vote for the
Solo players

Of course don't shoot solo's that are on your own team
