Spawned in a Lance as a Dire, with another Dire, a KGC, and an LRM Supernova on Grim Plexus. The other two Lance's pushed away from us as fast as possible to start engaging, but not killing anything. It was at that time that I knew we were ******. Sure enough we got wrecked.

Like Gas Guzzler, just last night, Alpha and Beta Lance took off and left us Charlie Lance behind. Main enemy force comes around the hill on the left flank toward us Charlie Lance and guess what? in a matter of seconds, we lost half of Charlie Lance and last two were a basket case.

Alpha and Beta show up and did a good job destroying the enemy for the match win, but it was down to the last two mechs on both sides. I'm glad we won, but not happy for the lack of support.

1. You know the names on the enemy team and non on yours.
2. Escort Mode pops up
3. Team walks into enemy firelines one by one
4. Lights are poking in front of the assaults/heavys blocking their fire line.
5. The enemy team uses more air strikes/cool shots/uavs

1. Indicator its gonna be a bad team: Often times theres a single guy on comms saying 'hi' or 'good hunting'. Theres apparently a significant number of socially awkward basement dwellers, cause frequently im the only guy responding to that. If somebody says 'hello ppl' especially actually speaking and addressing us, then you respond. Give him respect. .


Bah so sick of the "social people thinking they deserve some kinda socially accepted props for saying hi, hello, or whats up... like they are doing us some kind of favor by talking to us.

in reality people like me are sick of the artificial smiles and meaningless social gestures cause i know damn well you are not my friend and dont give a crap about how or what i am doing . the only thing we share in common is that we want to win so in short shut the f' up press "r" and do your part. you dont need me regurgitating a bunch of social garbage to make your games better. and if you do thats your short coming not mine . im only here to kill mechs not merry meet and be palsie walsie. because that usually ends up in the typical drama of internet friends and enemies and i dont have time for that BS.

when some idiot starts firing his weapons while on the move; while some idiot starts firing his weapons at absolutely nothing, over and over; when some idiot crosses over in fron of a bunch of mech to cause collision damage, then realizes he didn't want to be over there anyway, and crosses back.

etc.

in other words, things people ought to be smart enough to know not to do, or things that really aren't hard to think of a way to do safely.

also, "lrm boat here, locks please, appreciated."

1) The only players you recognise are the good ones on team red.

2) People start yarning about all sorts of non match related stuff...
3) when your assault or slower mech is the first mech on your team into any sort of firing position.
4) teams splits/is all lrms/sniperz/
5) team takes the 'we have no lines of slight' spots on the map... and waits till they are fully engaged AND then tries nascaring.
