It really does not matter to me whether or not he lucked out. As long as he did not get it via a server meltdown, I'm perfectly fine with him wearing it. Lady luck blessed him during that game.

The math was done. He ended up with minimally more damage than necessary to core out 12 enemies from behind, and only hitting their RCT. Now, I'm not saying that all players are the smartest, but when you start getting hit with *SRMS* and can't see who is shooting at you, the first thing you do is look around, no? The only reason laser ganks work as well as they do is they cause no screen shake, hence usually being able to dump a couple volleys into an enemy before a reaction occurs.

More importantly, a sadcat doesn't perform THAT well. Period.

There are real death stars. But OP probably isn't one of them.

[nehebkau]

Nope not a genuine deathstar., OP just outed himself as a person to ignore.

I'm making no claim that the OP's death star is legitimate. But ...

It is the height of arrogance to assume that just because you cannot do something yourself does not mean it can't be done by anyone else.

I'm just saying.

Is a Deathstar achieveable in a Shadowcat? Yes, it probably is. Quite unlikely in PSR managed matches. Before PSR getting 8-10 kills wasn't uncommon for just decent players in 1 out of 50 matches, DS was quite achievable, still required an insane amount of lucky circumstances to get those last kills.

In 4:30, with srm6 and ML(even MPL) legit? Extremely suspect, if not a flat out lie. It would have to be 3 SRM6 and 2 MPL to put out that kind of damage in that amount of time.

Low game hours (as he reported) + srm6s (as he claimed and the damage showed is his most likely rigging) + ~400 hours (his claim) and still in tier 4 -indicating he is a quite low skilled player, ie. 12 rear cores with CT only destroyed against active targets with this rigging extremely unlikely - would make it literally a one in about 10 billion chance its a legit match.

Could he have had a miracle match that coincided with the mass disconnects people were reporting, but had a legitimate match? Miracles happen, but this is beyond suspect.

[BabyCakes666]

it was a 1000000000-1 game geez

like 400hr is a long time and i told you they just did not know wtf was going on they all must of been new like first game and all i did was shoot CT not spry n pray

like dam you all have killed that guy that has no idea wtf going on and is like "wtf shooting me O_ov ???"

the hole team was super bad like my god i clubbed them like baby seals how is this hard to bleave

i got proof a hole team can be ****

[sycocys]

400 hours is indeed a long time.

It is a long time and you are still in tier 4.

This is the number 1 reason I personally don't believe you for a single second. In order for you to still be in tier 4 after that long you have to be a tremendously poorly skilled player - to pull off rear 12 CTs only in 4:30 with srm6s on moving targets? Not going to happen for someone with your skill level, sorry.

calling ********, there was a time not a long while back in which desyncs were common and only 1 person would make it in.

Safe to assume server meltdown

No one using the Death Star title has a hope of it being believed that it is legit without providing a screenshot (and no one would ever get that game and not screengrab it, so "i forgot to screenshot it" means "i didnt really get it legit")

[sycocys]

I'll put it this way - 400 hours is very forgivingly putting you in at a minimum of 1200 matches. That's 3 matches per hour, and you are still Tier 4.

If you are still Tier 4 after this many matches, you are losing/not contributing/not performing at a 100 match score level even in 90% of your wins.

Yet you want people to buy that you - with 3 srm6's and 2 MPL - accurately rear-cored 12 active and moving players? I don't really care how derp-tastic they were, the evidence of your personal skill level would indicate all on its own that you aren't skilled enough yet to do this against live opponents. And rear-core only on the 2-3 light mechs? Moving light mechs for that matter? With SRM6? Sorry I'm not buying it.

Sorry for the aside:

What strikes me as funny about this thread is that many of us (okay, all) are implicitly or explicitly calling the OP a liar because he is fronting a "death star" title (and backing it up with really bad "evidence"), and for the most part not even addressing his original question/issue.

Yet, even with that as the basis of an entire thread...most of you are being more polite and well reasoned than when we have threads discussing balance or builds. Gotta love our community. We are an odd bunch.

[Novakaine]

As with pretty much everything else, this what you get when gear towards the lowest common denominator.
We have officially arrived.

Nope, you can take me off that list. I am not making any judgements on the validity of the achievement. Also my previous statement still stands:

And again, what I would really like to ask is: Why do some people here seem to care so much about that achievement? Jealousy? Envy? What?
