See page event and leaderboards - before there ever were almost all from the faction icon, and now what?


An exception in the image below there, it's loyalists and exception ).

You know that unless that log into the forum, that doesn't actually update?

I know for a fact Tex & Yri are aligned with CSJ/CW respectively at the moment, they have just not logged onto the forum

No no no. After Phase 3 went active those with merc contract appear without faction tag in leaderboards. Those with loyalty pledge have tags. Nothing to do with logging in.

Ergo ipsum lorem etc, majority of population are mercs, more big news at 11.

That and events always kill CW...

[Monkey Lover]

Cw is dead to me. I will play the IS v IS events when they update next.

[Jugger Grimrod]

Assuming that there will be any IS vs IS events...

[Aylward]

These guys are right...there are numerous far better indicators that CW is dead..

Well given I play with Stefka, and know he is a Merc... Unless he's changed in the last week

Doesn't help that the matchmaking thing is borked. It'll show 11 guys in queue, when you join....you're all alone. 5 minutes later, it still hasn't put you into a team.

Yes. This is just one of the proofs, not the best.

It just what I saw when playing in this the event. Early, such number of players without faction loyalty I have not seen in these tables.

I noticed that myself - but only for Scouting queue (as I do not do Invasion) - that glitch was introduced in the last patch.

With PGI's track record of broken patches, inability to "balance" anything and adding unannounced, untested items to the game.....I'd be willing to say this isn't a glitch. It was probably designed that way.

I can agree, I'm a Clan based Merc solo unit player, and I've been CJF for the entire leaderboard... yet I'm still a Bear?! Could be a hold over freeze from Phase 3 introduction on the forums locking in faction icons.

[Nicc Hunter]

all Merc Units should get out of the clans and choose an IS Faction and conquer!! forget about the IS events to come, just show the interest on IS Vs IS, leave the Clans empty !!

D´awwwww, some more anti-Clan bias, cuuuuuute .

Funnily, while CW suffers from anemic population, there are games, despite your best attempts to go full #Donald versus the clans .

If you dont like CW, dont play it, but maybe stop ******** into the pool, others might wanna still swim in there .

[exiledangel]

if the falcons could fight them selves there would be games for day's

Weeeeeell ... since most of the others went into their respective sulking corners or quickplay , I must admit your powers of observation are highly refined and sharpened to a needle-like point, so in short : you found them greenturkeys out, good work !

And to further clarify : I think CJF will start playing against itself at some point in time, since there wont be much left of other factions if these factions don´t get their "mojo" workin´ again .

Also: Mercs switch all the time between IS and Clan just to get games (seed them games, yo !), so competent pilots couldnt really be the lack that is plaguing some factions, or ?

[Appogee]

Whole game seems to be in a holding pattern until MechCon.

I really hope PGI have something more inspiring than a new Skill Tree to share.

It feels to me like there are a lot fewer people playing than there used to be.

Yeah it's got massively worse in the last 2-3 weeks IMO.

I mean people are faction/unit hopping half a dozen times a day atm just to get matches. That's as bad of a sign as I need really.
