Any news on whether or not this feature could be added?

I would love to challenge some of the lesser disciplined, ( and greater disciplined ) pilots that I drop with, to a duel.

I can't be alone in that thought.

No concrete news ATM. So far, private matches are the way to go.

They plan to do solaris at some point
Maybe it could be part of that
It's already an arena

A group of duel mechs (maybe the tonnage and/or clan/inner sphere could be randomized) are provided and the the combatants choose from that group and then they drop.

It should be an arena with no escape and they fight until one ejects, discos, or dies.

Kill/Death ratio should not be affected by duels, but a separate duel win/loss ratio could be fun.

I would love to get little ticker tapes that run at the bottom of the mechlab (when I'm in the mechlab) showing who killed who in duels.



I know this is asking quite alot, but seriously, it could break open a whole new aspect of this game.

Can anyone else add terms they can think of that should apply?

Looking forward to it. If my duels are used as cheat detection I hope theres an MC credit per ban.

Honestly more excited about an epic galactic war but Solaris should be great fun to. The imagination runs wild with the potential of this game. 90's clone games, not so much.

We run duels at he end of our Unit practice. Surprise we get about 4 variations of decent build
Light Ach (whatever) and some try hard Jenners both side of track
medium - Srm smplas Scrow or Nova slas mgs or smplas maybe mgs (Md lasers to long burn time)
Heavy - folks only run Orion 11c for insta kills.

Streaks are not allowed because we sometimes fight mediums vs lights and we also use assaults as a group versus mixed.

We have a limited area with only about 6squares so folks just close the gap and it become who can get the shoulder with the weapons first.

It is weirds to see mechs that have a hard time in all the other variations of play (Orion IIc) do so well in !v1.
