Looking at the amount of planets owned by CLAN vs IS units, I'd say 90% are still going to clans.
Are you going to rectify this any time soon PGI? Maybe until you manage to bring balance and harmony to EFF-DUB, you can double the planets owned by IS. For every 1 planet owned by IS unit, give them a bonus planet or something.. cuz this is just silly (to put it politely) and is causing dissension among the ranks.

Any major changes will have to wait for a hot-fix/patch. They were using drop deck tonnage because it didn't require server downtime.

Quick question... how many group drops do clanners have, versus IS? Even a 4 man group drop will severely skew the matches when facing a pub group. Even more so when one in the group is drop calling over VOiP.
Basically it's not that Clanners are OP (if you look at pug V pug it's usually a close match) but the fact that clanners have more group drops versus IS
If you get IS group drops versus clanner pugs... you see the exact same issue appearing, only the other way around. Clanners are getting their asses stomped then.
As always, communication in this game is CRITICAL. And having everyone move in according to a plan (even if it's a bad one) will be better then everyone doing their own thing.

Great point. Basically, new players will begin their MWO career on the IS side cuz IS mechs are so much cheaper.. and then move on to Clan once they get some major cbills in the bank (and experience and likely a unit to go with it). That right there is the problem...
