So, I'm on Canyon Network. I'm following an Ice Ferret up an incline in my Hunchback. He stops dead in his tracks in front of me, and I'm stuck on the lower level. He stays there just long enough for me to start thinking of a different route when he suddenly moves on, so I get up there, too. I start moving for some cover when I get shot in the back... and I realize I'm in the middle of No-Man's Land! I push on, twisting like a mad-man as I go at an agonizingly slow 90ish km/h. I can make it... I can make it... I try for the out-cropping for cover and get vaporized just as I'm about to get there.

Thank goodness I had premium time running, or this match would have been a REAL disaster.



This is officially the worst game I've had since I started second wave of Closed Beta.

lol

What a gong show.

I have had a few bad matches as well. The one in the topic is impressive though.

Doo doo doo, playing my laser-vomit Adder on HPG Manifold, just gonna peak over the edge of the ramp leading to the top platform to see if it's safe.

Oh hai, four members of the enemy team all looking right at me. So long, all of my CT armor and 90% of its health.

I managed to run away and get one laser volley off before a Kodiak 3 turned me into a thin gooey paste.

5 minutes of battle time, and you never shot anyone??

Today I achieved the trifecta of fail.

Its been an amazing day of pugging. I swear I didn't face palm once.



Also, PHX sitting face first in a corner until all the bad mechs go away. Its not like your holding up 23 other people or anything.

I remember an Alpine battle where I was up on the pass to Candy Mountain in my Hunchback. No shots fired yet. An enemy Raven3L had gone around wide and up the hill "behind" the mountain (I don't recall what grid) and I found myself Narc'd with twenty thousand bagillion missiles incoming... there were so many extra missiles fired after my death that my corpse was being used as an area-denial beacon.

That was the endgame screen... total match lasted five minutes. I was dead in the opening minute.

Peek first and ensure that there is no danger before exposing yourself next time.

Don't take things for granted.

Funny that you say that MOBA, because I felt exposed the entire time. While I was being blocked, while I moved up the ramp and while I was out in the open at a later stage than I would have liked. Though I was anxious to get moving, I did take a peek for security reasons when I crested the ledge. I just got caught, plain and simple. Thank you for your tactical advice, though.

Much like the time I tried putting ppc's on my urbanmech. After 7 minutes of skirmishing I get killed and see the endgame screen read... 0 damage dealt...

Of all the things that you could use to describe something bad and you go with this one. Jeez, Merv Griffin, how old are you?

Let's just say that I would sit on my Mom's lap and root for the Unknown Comic.

My worse match score wise was getting one shot by a Gauss shot as soon as poking my head up over a hill and make first contact with the enemy with my lance. I believe it was 0 everything, or close too. I immediately quit out of annoyance.
