It's alright, I got more chuckles from this thread than most other threads this year. If you kept watching this train wreck after page 5, I'm sure you knew what to expect. But if anyone wants to keep discussing the premise of the OP, fill your boots!

in a way we are all just talking bs, and sharing bs, and just having a good time talking about mw5 and sharing our views and opinions. nothing to get mad about. but if u are then go in the game and wreck each other 1 v 1, DONE, then come back friends and back to the bs and random events

"2hrs later"
((o.0) did i just beat the entire game in a 6 small pulse locust with 11 lrm , small pulse, er ppc combo. with identical set up on each lance mate.
by doing nothing but balling up and straight brawling with some what tactical strategy. wow)

Considering there's no mechlab in Mechwarrior 5, and instead their focus is on "Mech Variants" you won't get that chance.

lol wut

I have never relied on my lancemates in any MechWarrior game to do anything but distract/tank hits. They were particularly atrocious shots in MW3, I refused to give them ammo-dependent weapons because of it.

Most of the time my lancemates have such potato piloting skillz that they can't even keep pace with my mech. Even when their mechs are faster than mine. And it's flat open terrain.

Sometimes though, the stars align and they manage to actually hit things. I've always found that equipping them with nothing but [ER]LL, [ER]PPC, and Gauss gets the best results out of them. Funny how even the singleplayer story mode had the same meta as multiplayer...

Why on earth would PGI take the profits they've earned from this game, from our wallets, and dump it into producing another game? Why can they not use that funding to make THIS game better? There's so much stuff they can add to this game to make it better and yet they turn around and start making another standalone title...I don't even...

MW5 will make this game better, by giving this game a new engine to migrate to.
