That would be a bannable offense. And to my amusement, I did get accused of it last week.

Because my missiles "followed him after he moved and killed him".

I do not want to know why someone like that is in a game with T1s.

Because matchmaking is falling apart with the pop drop, we're getting cadets in-match with T1s.

re: the thread, I spammed MRM60 cat matches until I got a couple in the Goldilocks zone.

Seeing a match being lost with 100% certainty before a single shot was fired just by looking at the movement patterns of your team isn't fun. Seeing 4 teammates die before you even made it into engagement range is just disheartening.

The matches i played were either "roll them 12:0, have to work for kills because they are simply dying too fast" or "realize you will get rolled within 1 minute after the match has started, take as many with you as possible".

MWO has seen better times.

That’s so true it’s scary. I had a couple matches yesterday where it was obvious we’d get stomped the moment we dropped. But on the bright side, there’s so much starch out there crazy things can happen. I lost a match yesterday that we started by going up 4-0. And then all the assaults scattered to go cap nodes because we were down 3-2 on caps. It was like a bad dream, it just kept getting worse and worse...

The first minute of a match is the absolute worst. Being able to predict with near pinpoint accuracy how a match is going to play out just by how dumb everyone walks out of spawn is demoralizing.

I cleared all of the events in only one match, GG close.

Are you Chuck Norris? Because Tryhard required multiple games to complete for real mortals, what with the whole "get -two- games over 500".

It's almost as depressing when you just look at the team and go "I'm on "Team Didn't Get Lube this time,eh?" ", followed by the usual potato mashing. Or vice-versa. But things like assaults going out to try and cap wide, lights that beeline straight into the enemy and give you 0-2 in 20 seconds of combat, etc. etc.

lol no kidding

dropped with what's his name from EMP this morning and he was knocking off Mechs like they where bowling pins
5 one match 6 in another

good thing for me it allowed me to get the X2 XP bonus on two Mechs
normally it takes 2 to 3hrs to get the XP bonus's

That's not particularly abnormal for me in a dual HGauss Fafnir either. The mech is really a very nice design. (like an IS MCII)

For every 1 good Fafnir I've been paired up with that does decent damage I see 15 that do <200 damage.

Then again I see the same thing with a lot of mechs.

[BTGbullseye]

Usually that's people that have trouble with the Gauss. I know I was getting sub-200's until I got used to the charge up mechanic. (now I bottom out in the 600's)
