I've noticed a disturbing trend in MWO. When my MC runs low, or I haven't bought anything in a while - All my matches are a stomp. I get teams that just stand in the open, don't lock on, strafe the enemy mechs from 800m - with machine gun fire! My teammates can be seen steering their mechs into the hillsides. If they do hit something its the ground...or my back! Meanwhile my enemies are like the freakin 1st recon battalion of the battletech universe.

Last week I got the Hero timberwolf and 1500 Good times a rollin again!Posted Image Club on!

LOL! While that could be a possibility -- and would be in the 'evil genius' sphere of game development I don't think PGI would have thought of it. Seriously, that would have been a wonderfully evil thing to add to a game -- crappy matches without premium time.

Thought of it? Do you even trust them to be able to program that properly? Judging from everyones opinion here is that they'd screw that up to and make you go into a worse bracket for buying stuff.

See, that's what premium time is for. That cbill bonus is just a little extra. The real reason you use it is that you get matched with good players against the f2p potatos that can't afford sh!t. I thought that's common knowledge how f2p works?

I wouldn't advocate lying on any level The problem with it, is that is easily broken by truth.

The caveat being the truth must be both known and able to be proven...

Easily broken? Some of the best lies have persisted for thousands of years despite the truth... Religion, for example. Posted Image

Please don't start this.

Personally, I'm a fan of the Rule of Acquisition #266: "When in doubt, lie." But you have to also follow the #60th Rule of Acquisition: "Keep your lies consistent." It's really a dangerous game you play when you go down that path.

Ugh! The bible was the worst children's book I've read as a child!
Grown ups expected me to read about murder, **** and torture but I'm not allowed to watch Power Puff Girls and Tom and Jerry because they're too "Violent"

Do you really think PGI could actually code well enough, to have the MM analyze if you've spent money on the game lately?
