To casual players that's intending to waddle out at FW for the event. Please bring AMS, it's tier 5 all over there again, and the sad part is that LRMs are actually working. Don't let them work.

The problem is that pushes come to a stand-still cause allies are just too damn afraid of LRMs.

i only saw lrm work in incursion on open caustic because of fkin radar. All the boats were given free lock.... freakin lrm loving noob gamemode. Your choice is either stand still and wait for them to expand their ammo at a rock or the ground(because they are oblivious and fill keep firing) or go die. "go die" isnt nearly as bad as not playing the game for half a match.

than is not Time to push ...thats like the Knight charge in Agincourt against British longbows, or the british Light Cavalry Charge against russian Artillery in the Crimean War ...its give a Time to Charge and to wait for the right Moment ...thats the Tactical Awarness ...not run like George Armstrong Custer brainless in the bad Situation

Thinkings Mens shooter , not Brawl-rambo Warrior online

you come with a Shotgun to a Long range War or a Knife to a Shooting ...thats your fail

So, how does it work for you? Your awareness, I mean. Do you win?
Or are you just cannonfodder for those on the other team that recognized that Brawl Rambo does work ?

I have been running a lot of MRM boats. Most have about 500m hard range cap except Stalker can reach about 560m. I don't have that many IS mechs so I'm mostly running assults with few lights or mediums to fill the tonnage. Even mediums can carry nice MRM60 load which is really nice weapon for FP, I think better than in QP. If I'd have good missile heavies I would use them instead of slower assults, but not that option yet.

Occasinally there will be a enemy team which has a lot of ERL gauss and few ERPPC snipers. When that happens, it sucks specially on siege defense.

But outside these few cases, I'm mostly doing midrange brawling and it works just fine. Other people are also going along and we all charge together.

I think LRMs are relatively rare on both sides. Few players using them yes, but not that many.
