My massive gif collection, and the fact that outside of maybe 2-3 cases, I didn't re-use any of them last year. So that was nice.

Ingame though? Running solely lore builds for 5-6 months. Doing that made me feel a lot more connected to the BT universe when playing than anything else so far. Still trying to stick to just lore builds+AC/2 builds now that I've broken my "lore builds only" rule though, so I'm still getting some of that sweet, sweet immersion.

My first true carry was in my RVN-3L

Yessss, those Raven matches are so fun. Nothing like being the last one alive with a pair of ER larges and a lot of cored enemies.

LOL. This was 3ML and SSRM4 IIRC. Might've been SRM8, but definitely 3ML. I was...raw. I cranked out a bit over 800 damage, seemed like an impossibly large number then.

Found the screen...old user name too...

The top of my lucky game list is probably a legit death star on an alt. The mad scramble to get the last kill before a team mate did lol.

[Antares102]

My favourites:

• 9 kills in QP
  
• 22 kills in FP with 3 mechs
  
• 3712 damage in FP with 4 mechs
  
• 3212 damage / 10 kills / 1875 score in FP with a single mech (BLR-1S)
  
• 2x 48:0 with my unit in FP
  
• Winning a FP defence game 48:16 without the enemy opening the gates
  
• Loosing against turrets in a ghost drop 0:48 (lol)
  
• Leading my unit (-BO-) to be in the top 10 in both Tukayyid events

I have screenshots for all of those events.

Not an accomplishment, but an amazing moment was the final match of the launch tourney. The almost cap and the brawl was pretty freaking awesome to watch.

I headshotted a jumpjetting urbanmech on mining collective.

It doesn't count though because I was in a clan mech.

[Novakaine]

Seven kills in group match.
And having a couple of guys threaten to hunt me down in real life and chop of the family jewels.
Because of their inability to counter lurmz.
Oh and defeating an enemy with a single medium laser and a tag.
I'm sure he had to be drunk.

I'm sorry, but... your proudest moment is from an internal scrimmage???

That's not my proudest moment. Probably not in my top ten. Just responding to something Roughneck said.

But that's a public match. It's a very old screenshot. Those are faction abbreviations. Unit tags did not yet exist.

I do have some very proud moments from scrims, internal and otherwise (a clutch in my last mech Jenner-IIC against four members of Black Watch comes to mind). Scrims against good players are actually much more reliably challenging than either pubs or actual comp.

I don't disagree. Aren't you with KCOM or Evil? I imagine the internal scim within them is probably very good. I wasn't around when the game was released, I just saw the screenshot and was like, "hum... they are all in the same unit... how is that possible?" haha

Five Kills in a Hunchback 4G the variant all the 'experts' said was the worse Hunchback variant, before quirks.

Ace of spades in a Grasshopper, before quirks and before size increase, when I was about the only person here defending them, before one of the meta gods decided they were o.k for FW. In fact up until that point people said they were to tall and a pile of crap.

Getting into the top 50(might have been 75, I can't be bothered to look for the event) with a Banshee armed with ML's and two LBX10's because LBX10 suck balls don't they.

There was this time when about 100 of us rode out of Tier 3 into Tier 4 and unlocked the city.

Wait wrong game.

There was this time I forgot to mark the entrance of a wormhole and spent the next two hours playing hide and seek with the inhabitants until I could probe the exit.

Oops, wrong game again.

There was this time when I made a character that looked like a NPC villain and confused the heck out of people in the PvP zone.

Wait...

Not saying this game isn't fun, it just hasn't produced "moments" for me. Hopefully an improved FW will do that...someday.

[JediPanther]

That just gets harder with the power creeping 120+ mediums and heavies.Not to forget all the spl achs, clan streak boats, and pgi-hates-all-light-mechs-rescale.

[Blaike]

It was Caustic valley and I was the only one left against 5.
4 was around me, I jumped on a rock and fired and shutdown, The 4 fired at me and all 4 overheated and died. Their last mech was disco,,, True story

High level scrims are actually about the best quality MWO you can get, as a rule.

taking out an assault in a urbie. my brother was watching over my shoulder and was distressed by my laughter...he then immediately downloaded the game

[Starwulfe]

-Forming a small group of like minded pilots, using a new/different play style at the time and tearing it up as an unknown until topping the charts during Tuk1.
-Being the first to charge 12 mechs, including Direwoves (before the JJ variant) over the Boreal gate, rushing into our enemy as they were setting up. Oh how the cries of wall hacking floated blissfully through the air!
-Loading up 12 stormcrows/novas with flamers, back when they were considered garbage, and (t)rolling some poor guys who couldn't stay powered up as the flamers slowly melted their armor.
-For a personal one: Old Forest Colony, 8v8, in my Cent. Ended up being 5v1. Using the hills and tunnel was able to maneuver and, with some luck, make it 5 1v1 ambushes and come back for a victory.

My lovely LRM boat that isn't supposed to work (Assault with IS XL engine, only 2 ML as backup weapons), and supposed to be detrimental to each team it is in. Yeah right.



Solo QP, T2 games only, leveled from scratch.
