I'd have to say the SA and ISRC guys I've been dropping with regularly. They are all pretty great team players, but if we're talking forumwarriors, I'd have to say Mcgral. The couple of times I've dropped with him I know that if I'm having a bad game he has no trouble picking up the slack.

[Straker XL]

Jman5, moneyBURNER, Tool Box, Flyby215, NaCL, idealsuspect, McGral, Terciel, LT Satisfactory, Ordellus (yes, even Mr. LRM Atlas...), DaChump, dario03.

Then there's a bunch of guys I'm friendly with that I like to see on the other team so I can personally dispatch them then chide them about how "100 damage?? That ain't gonna get it done b0ss". But I ain't gonna name 'em.

ShinVector is always a joy to play with/watch (laser ballet, wtf), NARC BAIT is a crazy good team player, and BrioS is always trying to wrangle the herd of cats that is QP pugland, much respect to these guys.

To give Ordellus his due, as crazy as the LRM Atlas drives me, he reliably punches out a ton of damage. And when you occasionally catch him in a properly built Atlas (it does happen), he's quite scary in it.

Novakaine is always good to drop with

Spike Brave I see sometimes

Most everyone I see from time to time all are good to drop with

[Bishop Steiner]

Honestly, anyone who doesn't have a burr up their butt, wants to coordinate, but still have fun, is pretty much a blast to drop with.

I see any of our Forum Tryhards, I know most of em are better n me, especially on this potato rig, but I'll wingman any of them to give em some reliable backup.

Kitty Pryde floats to the top of my addled brain as one not already mentioned. Good shot, that one. Can't recall them playing in recent history.

I also get a kick out of being grouped with people with names like "nothing to shoot here", for obvious reasons.

Which ever ones don't die early, then spend the rest of the match whining and giving "pro" advice.

Hell I'm guilty of this. I'm often taking intentionally difficult builds, pushing into the enemy or holding onto ground that gets me spent. Then I get to watch my team play. . . and I can't NOT dispense advice for the rest of the match. I mean, if me typing 'UAV, d5!" or "medium lasers don't hit out to 700m" or "push d3, you've got an isolated atlas flanking your position!" helps my team win or learn to be better pilots, then that's as close as this game comes to a functional squad-leader system without voice.

Scout Derek and Jodi von Jedi are two of my favorites.

I also have had good times with rageagainstthedyingofthelight and NottheDroidYourLookingfor.

Panzer Maiger = instant mute.

Geez, Panzer is a great guy to play with imo. Reminds me of Count Dracula.

being useful and being a butthat are two different things. Never wrong to be an extra set of eyes. It'es when you start talking trash and denigrating your still living teammates (exception made for those still alive via cowardice) that it's an issue.

Good choice. Jodi is pretty much my best friend IRL. I don't get to play with him enough anymore.

Krivvan Curccu, Jman5 are some of the better players I actually enjoy dropping with, because they play well, team up well, but don't act liek Dbags to the lesser players.

[FearNotDeath]

Nobody.

[9thDeathscream]

Damn no one mentioned me I best pick up my game. I am always skilling up mechs so I don't usually have the best scores but I do ok and always support the team.

Beat me to it. PanzerMagier for sure. There's a lot of cool forum peeps too, but few people make their mark on a game like Panzer. And few people have the mental stamina to call every match in the solo queue. I've seen him catch some haters a few times, so that must happen every now and again. Yet he still keeps going. He's one of the few MWO personalities I'd like to see get some sort of recognition.

Is that the guy that talks in that mega army voice?!?! Hell yeah i love playing with him!

Me? I'll never make any list. I swear too much. I'm kind of a peice of ****. Lol
I rarely use comms except in group Q.

Honestly I love how this community is a bit 'smaller'. You see that guy that frequents the forums and you can't help but shoot at him for no reason

<3 you guys

Am I allowed to down-vote myself?

[Helene de Montfort]

Personally, i'm very unlucky in my games as a PUG...

I always end up playing with Helene de Montfort, she's always on my team, and she is terribly bad... Terribly...

Huh, small world! Is he active any more? I haven't seen him in a long time!
