HEY NOOBCAKE WE HAVE ONLY XL ENGINES!
If you don't like how the lore has it then go play hawken or any other mech game out there.
Clans are allready nerfed to hell, have strict build rules, no choice in Engine rating, and are hot as ******* hell. If you still can't win against us go back to playing tetris.
END OF DISCUSSION!
F-ing know it alls' all over the F-ing forums. Give me unrestricted Clan Mechs like in the Lore and make me play with 2 Players less per match so i can show you your rectums inside like i want to.
Jesus....
Gee, aren't you pleasant? The engine slowdown mechanic is not that bad, and in my honest opinion the latest patch has come as close to balance as we've ever been.
And actually, if he doesn't like how things are in lore, he can keep playing, because PGI has explained time and time again that they will break lore, when necessary, for balance. If that upsets you to the point that you need to flame the OP, perhaps YOU should go play tabletop.
Clans are not nerfed to hell, they work fine. What build rules are you talking about? We have omnipods to customize and IIC mechs will give us clanners a taste of battlemech customization in 6 days.
Frankly it isn't the end of the discussion, the discussion will go on and on and on, I assure you. It'd be nice if PGI paid more attention to it actually.
The OP did not act like a know it all, he presented a solution he thought might help. Humbly putting forth a suggestion does not make one a know it all. So you're saying you want PGI to scrap all of their balance changes so you can personally be OP, that way you can scrap IS players for catharsis? Trash talking seems kinda weird considering your asking for an advantage.
I don't know if it's founded, but PGI fears 10 v 12 would be a bad business model, so it's not going to happen. Since it's not PGI is pursuing other avenues of balance. Good on them for that.
