Okay, lets say the op isn't a total idiot. Even though this thread proves otherwise.

As he's using the 7S there's still room for 2 med pulse with stripped arms or more if he keeps those arms intact.

They have the ability to put some backup weapons on there but they didn't.

The build I was using was 2 ERPPC 3 LRM5 for testing a long range load out but the ERPPCs do damage at 0 range
on out to 1000. so lets see I hit the locust once with both ER PPCS point blank he took no damage same with the spider.

So my build is mostly for long range but it can work for close range defense. so my point is these few mechs are so OP in actuality PGI should nerf the crap out of there speed because you don't get second shots there under you and behind you and most of the time you cant maneuver to get them back in weapons view to get a hit.

if your going to attack me be warned I report offenders.

If you shot a light mech with your ERPPC's, and they took no damage, then you missed between their legs, or between their body and arm. I kill lights all the time with ERPPCs

I have killed lights also with ERPPCS mostly at a distance when there stopped at the top of hills but these 2 were basically 2 mechs away stopped in front of me and I did not miss.

SO here are the facts both light showed up by our spawn less than 30 seconds after the match starts which is a little fishy. Secondly they took no damage .third they killed me in a fully armored warhammer in under 10 seconds.

So ya I say total OP and PGI needs to balance there game it has become garbage when you cant take non meta builds and just have a fun good battle anymore.

1. Do you honestly think you're lrms are going to do damage at 1k either? They are not hard at all to dodge.

2. You missed then, or you're using regular PPCs which at this point I wouldn't put it past you.

3. They are not OP, you just suck, you suck at aiming, maneuvering and playing.

Oh and you can report me for triggering you all you want. My precious snowflake. But I'm not going to placate your clear incompetence and give you a virtual hug box.

With a LFE you can put full armor on and have that. With an XL you could stick a couple more MPL in the STs

"Improved focusing mechanisms mean that unlike the standard PPC, the ER PPC also has the notable advantage of having no minimum effective range. The ER PPC can deal full damage even to targets at point blank range"

If you hit a target, your reticle will flash red. If it doesn't, you did not hit them. simple as it gets. Since, however, you said point blank, you either;

1. Are mistaking ERPPC for the regular PPC when engaging.

or

2. Think you hit them but in reality you didn't.

In MWO; most meta either is a group of similar weapons or one Primary or a Primary and then backup weapons. Per say, a LBXAC/20 with Small Pulse lasers.

LRM 5s are useless unless you have at least 5 or more. Otherwise, you are wasting tonnage.

Your point is invalid; Light mechs are not OP, you simply do not know how to counter them. Light mechs utilize speed as part of the original TableTop ideal.

And note; if a smaller tank can't go faster than a medium tank, that's really stupid, don't you think?

Tell you what; Why don't me and you, you take a light mech, and me a heavy mech, and just see how OP light mechs really are. let's see huh.

So you're lying about how long it took them to get there, and you're claiming you took, worst case scenario, 4 alphas and died, so you're probably lying about that, too.

And you're complaining about dying in a 2 on 1 fight where you had a terrible build for brawling, even if it had been 1 on 1.

Everything you've written has been garbage

I'm not buying the OP's story, either.

I'm not great at the game, and I know where the source of that is at the moment. Isn't lights being OP, isn't MG's being OP (neither is true). It's a combination of old, bad habits on top of being rusty. I'm too aggressive and it gets me killed a lot.

I occasionally play one of the so-called "OP" lights (Locust) and the only time I straight up murder anyone with it is when I stumble across some dope who deserves it. You know, the ones who don't turn around when getting shot in the back, or the LRM boat who doesn't understand the concept of firing while on the move (keeping up with their team so they have back up). Against sentient beings, I actually have to work a little bit or shift gears into hit and run. I know exactly how long a light lives if it makes mistakes around opponents who are paying attention...

A very short time elapses between engagement and:

"You have been destroyed"

If you want to keep the Streaks, find a way to fit a BAP in there. That will essentially cancel out ECM for you. And make sure you have Artemis on, since it will still decrease the lock time even though it costs you no extra tonnage.

I actually have both on my MAD-5D but the BAP doesn't seem to help, perhaps there is another ecm-equipped mech in the vicinity?

Played my first game today on grim portico did not even get very far towards the city and attacked by 2 lights with machine guns and flamers AND KILLED .

MWO game play and balance is at a all time low lights for so long have been totally OP in this game tanking even assaults and heavy's which is totally asinine.

Russ and PGI want money but I wont buy into this type of crappola gameplay anymore balance your game Russ or sell it off to someone that knows what the heck there doing with this IP.

You are a FP veteran, you have 2k+ posts, and you are having trouble with two light mechs? Where was the rest of your lance?

[Felbombling]

I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I'm beginning to feel a little sorry for KingCobra at this point. That's saying a lot, too, 'cause he told me I'm not allowed to play like I know **** about MWO, World of Tanks or World of Warships. [Not sure if he will report himself for the abuse, since he did add "please don't" before that statement.]

[dsagent]

I legit cannot tell if this is a troll topic since I have met some REALLY bad players.

[Davegt27]

I remember when I first bought my Huggin back in 2014
man I could take down a DW in 4 sec flat lol
of course I never said anything
OP I would not worry to much a balance pass is in the works

just wait and see what happens
