What was wrong with the commentary? Banditb17 and mdmzero did a nice job casting the matches, plus they have pretty neat ears on top of it.

I agree, PGI got complacent. They forgot the community/kind of people they are dealing with. They need to deal with the community as a hostile element that will use any excuse to push a point out of pure spite. Because as much as PGI messed up, there was ample opportunity for us to meet them half way but the hate from the community is just too real.


That's not what I meant at all. It's just common sense to have a legal contract in this situation, to protect both sides. Contracts are a good thing in most situations.

Season 12 started yesterday, so only people who've played in the past 2 days have a ranking. Check his Season 11 stats


What I wanted to say......who gives a damn about leaderboard stats? They show nothing and are totally irrelevant in this/any discussion. (Btw, he got my kdr wrong^^)

Maybe... if they do that again... maybe this time they could hire someone who knows how to advertise such an event... don't know... someone who knows marketing and public relations and stuff like that.


So true. Last year, im online looking at stuff, im seeing adverts for eve online, adverts for wow, adverts for etc etc, nothing for MWO. When i seen how much money they put up as a prize i expected to find ads spammed everywhere.

How's CW?



No one plays CW and that has nothing to do with the Comp 8v8 mode...


So again, what is your point? Because you dont seem to even understand what the mode is for. Its not to GET READY FOR CW, its to create a MRBC style league here within the game.

They mean nothing?


Bro, they mean everything(because its all we have on you). Your avg MS, w/l ratio and k/d ratio can tell me A LOT about you as a pilot for the most part even what class you play most. Its literally how most people recruit these days and it also how leagues gauge new teams.


Just because you cant interpret them or they are bad doesnt mean everyone are useless.

You'll have a better chance year after year as the player pool gets smaller.

So, your point is? Everybody below 2 is a potatoe and has to shut up or copy the "comp" play of staying back and avoiding front line action?

Bro, they mean naught! It tells nothing about the builds, mechs, playstyle.

Ok....maybe everybody with a kdr above 3 ain't a frontline player and is unlikely to lead pushes. To be honest, I prefer the 1 kdr player who pushes with the team more than the kdr 3 pilot who keeps savely in the back.

Nope, definately not since I'm not into e-sports, think this game is not the right game for it as well as playing this game purely because of lore. Heck, it's the only FPS game I ever played, since I really do not like FPS games^^

I'm happy about being, after almost 1 1/2 years into this game, at around 1 w/l and 1 kdr. I'm still stupid enough that when the drop commander says push that I actually push even though 90% of the time 90% of the team stays behind and seems not to grasp the meaning of push.

Maybe, just because, I will adapt to the playstyle of keeping in the back and using my team as meatshield. Let's see how my kdr evolves then......if I only cared^^

They need to do more work on the spectator mode. I found it hard to tell what the hell was going on. And no offense to the commentators, but they didn't make it interesting. It's just not very entertaining to watch. To be fair I feel the same way about sports in general.

So you are telling me you cant make assumptions on play styles via K/D R...


yet you just did. Why would a 1 or lower K/D R mean someone is better at playing with the team then a higher one? You just did some mental backflips to make it sounds like low stats are better.




I think i win.

I think, if, then only the avg match score is telling anything.

...and why did you only thought you won? Be a bit more self confident^^

But, let's stop this argument since you will stay at your position that one can read out of stats more than I think is possible. But feel free to analyse me......I would find it very interesting, especially what my favorite weight class is.

OK, i like that idea what better what to squash it then put it to a test!


will report back with finding on Phoolan! I cant say im gonna be 100% accurate but i think i will get the jist of you as mechwarrior and where you stand in the pack. Even your preferred weight which can glean me a few tidbits about other things.


Dont get me wrong, You dont need a 500 avg MS and 3.00+ k/d to be considered decent at the game and SOLO queue can be rough for people. So i will take those things into account as well.

Which teams refused to have their games streamed for fear their secrets will be stolen?

ANYONE playing in their tournament needs to sign a waiver. PGI can do whatever the hell with your game. Broadcast. Advertisement. ANYTHING. IF you refuse. You forfeit.

Was it EMP?
