Why You Think That Ta Still Rules?

If you create a different game mode, and want people to actually play according to the game mode, you have to make the score reflect the objectives.
This ain't MW4 TA, is it? Oh yeah, it is. Damage > ALL.
Seriously, do you guys even ALPHA test your own game?

The two newest game modes are absolutely terrible, in my opinion, and I hate playing them
That's because they have objectives which can lead to matches ending outright without ANY robot shooting
That's a waste of 5 minutes queue, 5 minutes walk into the fight, and bucket loads of salt
I don't care if I make 30k Cbills or 300k Cbills, I'm here to shoot Robots
And, seeing as Tick Boxes are LosTech™, I'm forced to play these horrendous game modes...and you want to make them even LESS enjoyable?
Nah

how does escort lead to matches that end without robot shooting when the objective is to shoot a robot?

Being in a short range robot, never able to get into range without being suicidal
Or too passive a PUGtato team, never engaging the other team (defending or attacking)
We've had an ally Leg the VIP, then suddenly lose the match...because he got stuck. No robot shooting there
Naturally, I've stopped taking short range builds. Far too frustrating and situational, but that still doesn't make me like those two cancerous game modes

theres no point to short range weapons when medium and long range weapons put out the same or greater damage with significantly longer range
youd think short range weapons would do the most damage but nope.

PGI: "Thanks for the feedback! We took a look at the numbers, then went ahead and nerfed small and medium lasers, SRMs, and Artemis."

Are you fracking kidding me? The copious amounts of salty tears produced by those drops are well worth it.
Heck, as I used to say:
I cap for the tears, the vast flowing rivers of salty(*) male nerd-rage tears.
(*) Something new I added to my original.

It is much the same when health pools are finite though, each touch of damage cannot be undone, and many components that get destroyed, aside from shield arms, cause a mech to be impaired. Damage alone doesn't get wins but teams only have a set health pool total, each hit diminishes that and increases the chance one of those mechs will fall as a result of the damage.

Lucky! I just mount my thrustmaster wheel/gearbox to the desk. The sad part is out of the 438 hours i have, 98% of that is on modded mountain passes (Haruna, Shomaru, Iroha, etc.) with the japanese pack. But hey i can easily do the ditch turn in anything at this point, so there's that.

Mainly the "HURR DURR ME BIGZ MECHWARRIORZ WANZ TO SHOOTOR ROBOTZ" fraction is answering your post.
