Nightly drunk (or at least buzzed) warrior online with a few gents from my unit is still fun...because people.
Sometimes the game is okay too.
More often than not though, it is the interaction that is fun despite the game. WE make it fun.
I swear TS has more going for it than the game some nights

Another thing that ticks me off is, that first PGI designs clan weapons such manner that only lazors are effective (spray & pray cannons, squirting LRM etc).
Then when PPL notice this and use that lazor vomit, they start weeping, complaining and nerfing weapons because PPL use them as effective way as is possible.
Right now those weapon nerfs, superquirks and C-DHS nerfs have done that C-assault will lose head-on shootout to 4*LPL IS-heavy.
Only in MWO

Balancing without making everything the same. It a tough job for anyone, but it is a serious problem in MWO. That is why we are seeing few viable builds and many of the same mechs being fielded.

I freakin hate the leaderboards. The only good that's come from them is shoving someone's abysmal light stats in their face whenever they claim that lights are just fine where they're at. People are more and more chicken **** in matches every month.

I think the most glaring example I've seen since June is during some conquest matches. While still not common I occasionally see people roll back towards the lump of Blue and kinda hover there, ignoring caps, waiting for the group to make a move. Two days ago on Canyon I was the only mech next to Theta in my slow AC10 urbie and 2 other quick mechs were near Kappa. The rest had merged into a pulsating blob at Gama waiting for a the group to make a committed move.

Of course if I had a working mic (software/lazy issues) I could have got folks moving but folks shouldn't need herded just to move towards caps...

I am not going to blame the players who are just trying to have fun like the tryhards are always quick to do. People have to learn over time.

What I do blame is PGI with their systems to herd players that never work well. When the new system of tiers came to be there was three days maybe a week where the matches in solo were wonderful then it was a steady decline. Once the tryhards figured out how to exploit it the end was in sight. I wonder how many new players quit in disgust when veterans were creating multiple accounts to club baby seals. In my book all of them should have been banned. Let's not talk about the sych dropping clearly in violation of TOS yet factions had Announced weekly get together's posted right on the top of their faction pages along with guides to be successful in doing so. Again PGI could have banned entire factions for doing so but they did nothing and let them hammer anyone raising the issues on the forums with their faction buddies moderating threads to K-town. Many even bragged about it on multiple threads. Can't even begin to touch on the absolute corruption of people who constantly said it was a team game while covering the lowest of behaviors.

Should we get into 66ah and the cheaters? What happened to PGI saying it had an even much larger list?

PGI could have easily overcome the obstacles but didn't care and that is obvious by the way they respond and communicate with us.

They did build systems to try and separate the killers from the baby seals but they never enforced it.

Now its just a mess in solo. Either you drop into a match were your stomped and insta killed or your in another where your clubbing baby seals yourself. Sucks either way.

PGI will never step up. they just cover their own like the latest TOS this patch. Its time to understand they just don't care about you. Your just another to be exploited by them while they let the exploiters in game destroy it more.
