...when you choose to join a FP match.


I'm sick of the "Oh, I'll join this match .....christ I just got reked in 15 secs of the first engagement...I'm DC'ing!" crowd.

If you choose to join a FP game, bear in mind you have another 11 players on your team, that are relying on you being there to cover them, fire at a target and absorb incoming fire. It's called team work.

TBH... I think I'm just sick of this game.

Man I see DC's almost every match I play, if it's not on my side it's on the clammer side.

My personal fav is when I see guys first wave 65 tonne it up and don't have a single assault in their line up. I'm fine with that if your good... but when you struggle to brake 500 damage over 4 mech's that's a problem.. stay in QP until you have atlest 1 non lrm assault.

Make sure you report those idiots that just DC or eject and OOB their mechs intentionally. These kinds of scums are nothing but detrimental to the overall FP experience.

Relying on other people will not take you far in QP either. Want someone to rely on - form a group. This really is a case of "fool me once..." because people playing videogames are not generally known for giving a damn, and that includes the EULA that people are supposed to give a damn about when entering FP. Might not be the most favourable state of affairs, but either way YOU the player have to deal with it. I do not like QP Leroys that come out in force during events either, but it is what it is. If a guy actually cares about the game then more likely than not he does so both in QP and FP.

Well this is what PGI and the community gets after 5 years of letting 12 man comp teams seal club and slaughter pugs and casual players in FP this was foretold 4 years ago when many tried to tell PGI to split the queues in FP before the game mode died and players left the game.

When the problem is dimwits who cant shoot, read and have no balls, you are saying that 12 man comp teams are to blame? When did you last see a 12 man comp team for that matter..? Is the some clogging in that old septic tank of yours? Like WTF dude?

Shhhh....12 man comp teams are ALL over thé placé. It's super scary out here. FP is certainly not filled with small unit groups and mixed PUGs. It's nothing but super team's and meta builds. Probably the 6xssrm2 catapults, boom jagers and highlander ac5 ppc poptarts everyone talks about to this day. Oh, wait.....that was like 3 years ago......

Heh... most "premades" I see are a small group of guys in the same unit, who gather the rest of the team from their friends list, from people that mostly hop into the same TS. the biggest difference is that instead of random puggers, it's a group of people who generally don't suck. You know, guys that don't bring trial mechs to faction warfare.

Agree. Some potatoes are so bad they don't know where to shoot the o-gen/omega/power grid. If I tell them to open/go to a certain gate they head to another gate. Sometimes I feel like delivering a swift alpha to their rear CTs.

call for a split push. The fastest way to get PUGs to group up with you on the same gate is to tell them to head for the opposite gate you are headed for.

Even better is to tell them explicitly “not to follow you”....as then they will figure you have a nice plan to score lots of damage while they die alone across the map. So, the will go where you go and do what you do...seems to work like 9 out 10 times.

PGI ran the players off but it wasn't because there is no split queue, trust me.
