When there is only 1 enemy mech left , the map should do a complete reveal! Trolls with ECM hide and wait until the clock runs out wasting the time of the entire other team . PGI has so many people and they can't even grasp a simple concept. Do a little if statement if enemy team has 1 sole mech left and there are 5 + mech on your team, reveal. So easy and they choose not to update.

Nope. The last guy has every right to play the game. Also I have seen the last guy kill off 6+, it is rare but has happened.

[Ced Riggs]

Yeah, nah.

This!

I'd rather have this occur than that very rare occasional that the last guy actually does something. My mech is locked in that match and I want it back!

Bottom line is you signed up for a possible 15 min match

Skirmish is and always will be flawed. Worst game mode ever implemented.

As long as that last guy does something, I have no problem.
If he's just hiding and shows no intention of engaging, just report.

Well, we did warn everyone, repeatedly. Now people are reaping what they have sown. <shrugs even more>

pulled off 6 kills after being the last mech in my SDR-5D for a total of 9 kills in the match so yeah last guy has every bit the right to play their game. the quit match function exists for a reason. if you don't want to wait then quit out drop in a different mech then switch back after that new match if you must. (altho I'd suggest that you watch. #1 You might learn something. #2 You will definitely learn about the pilot you are watching through to use that knowledge against them

have watched through other light pilots at the end do very similar stuff, and some of the heavier categories as well. it isn't as rare as you think really. just requires that the rest of your team did their part and dished out as much damage as they could to every mech they could is all. (If everyone else on your team hit at least 3 mechs and put out at least 300 damage it's actually pretty easy to finish the enemy off at that point.)

I only 'suicide' in those situations when there is at least 6 mechs left on the enemy team and they are barely scratched or even worse not damaged at all....

if nothing else in this situation that last person alive, so long as they are actually playing, is getting more practice at doing what they do so why would you want to prevent them from doing that? sounds incredibly counter productive to me

Ever since someone first suggested it.

Any more questions?

[evilauthor]

I once saw a guy kill off four mechs, some of them near full health. And I'm convinced he could have killed off the fifth and last enemy... except he had run out of ammo and had no energy weapons.

I'm pretty familiar with the forums, but I've never seen that suggestion before, so how can you say they can't grasp a simple concept when it's never been brought up before? Have you suggested this in the Suggestion forum? Or do you just assume everyone is going to agree with you because you commit the fallacy of Appealing to Spite?

How about actually posting the suggestion first, or sending an email to feedback@mwomercs.com, giving it a little while before you post your rant? You do realize that just because there are those that are bitter toward PGI does not make your statement true about not being to grasp a simple concept. You assume those bitter vets are gonna jump on your bandwagon and sling the mud, but it still doesn't make your statement true. Offer evidence that they can't grasp a simple concept, or don't bother bringing your fallacious reasoning to the forums please.

Since launch? A team deathmatch mode has been asked for ... no ... demanded even before then.

Considering you've been here since December 2012, I'm surprised you're even asking.

Skirmish itself isn't bad. The problem is that the rewards system places so much emphasis on damage that actually playing kill-based mechs(such as a back-stabber), you are basically being punished for being efficient.

Edited by Requiemking, 21 June 2017 - 10:20 AM.

[Savage Wolf]

How is it still news to people that Skirmish is bad? We knew that before people wanted it. And PGI was correct in questioning it. And they say PGI doesn't listen. Often the problem is that they do.
