I never said clan were op i dont support that, what i have said is that 2 clan mechs have shifted the balance of the game.
But you cant say that without people getting upset thinking they are under attack and people are pushing for nerfs.
when in reality what has been said time and time again is that there is now a discrepancy in balance between the the two factions
first bought on by the kdk and now the madiic. the consequences are that fewer and fewer innersphere mechs are played and the ones that are played have now come to a point where its taking 2 to 3 to take down these new clan mechs.
its very simple its getting painfully obvious .
yet people just want to keep the power creep engaged full speed . till the game becomes clan warrior online .
and anyone foolish enough to bring a old school inner sphere build is doing it for the lulz.
I don't see were you getting your data from. Aside from when a new mech comes out, I usually see a pretty even balance of Clan and IS mechs in each and every match. New IS mech comes out, there are 6 of the new mech on each team, new Clan mech, same difference so I am not seeing any sort of Clan Warrior Online and honestly in the entire time I have played this game, I have never seen that.
As far as there being fewer and fewer IS mechs being used, what makes you think that is different in the clans. New mechs come out and replace the old and in quite a few cases it is just because the new mech is fresh and new, not because it is better. I have so many good mechs sitting in my Stable unplayed just because I am burned out on them, not because they are bad mechs. Also another reason why you are seeing less and less IS mechs is because mechs like the Warhammer have released. Honestly it is one of the best mechs in the game hands down. It has an amazing diversity of good, quality, effective builds that cater to multiple playstyles and it can wreck face of any mech it sees be it IS or Clan so yes, absolutely there are are alot in use which means other mechs aren't being used. This has nothing to do with the Kodiak or Marauder IIC, it has to do with the Warhammer.
Honestly if anything at this point, the Clans keep getting the short end of the stick. Every Clan mech that comes out gets tagged by IS players as being OP. I mean the Linebacker comes out, a 65 ton mech with less free tonnage for weapons and DHS than the Adder and within days it is being declared OP...what?? Then of course often as not, PGI caters to the whiners and Clan players get screwed. I mean all we hear is whine, whine, whine about the KDK-3 so what does PGI do. First it nerfs ALL THE KDKs, not just the one that is actually over performing. Then they nerf UACs because they are what enables to the KDK-3 to over perform, however it doesn't matter if it also nerfed all the under performing Clan mechs who use UACs as well because it got people to quit whining about the KDK-3.
So enough already. Quit whining and buck up. I am not the least bit afraid of a MAD-IIC or even a fricken KDK when I am playing my IS Maraduer or Warhammer or even my Battlemaster so why the hell are so many other (YES OTHER BECAUSE HALF MY STABLE IS IS) IS players such pansies and have to cry OP every time a new clan mech comes out.
