Solution to mixed tech? Mixed tech is the solution...idk what you're trying to say there.

As has been said before the whole reason Jihad happened and mixed tech is a thing is because balancing Clans vs IS is fundamentally flawed. It is not possible without lore fluff; which is impossible to have in a PvP environment similar to MWO. Hence why mixed tech is the answer.

Impossible in a PvP game?

The only true way to balance this is lore wise.
Unnerf the Clans and give us 12 v 8.
Forget about this constant weapons balance.
Let Clan be what they truly are, but give the IS the numbers advantage.

cant work, as ive said the 10v12 was tried and most of the time it lead to IS Victory,

also all quick play would have to be IS vs IS, & Clan vs Clan, for quick play balance,
as having Clan be superior and having a 12 vs 12 will lead to IS going extinct in quick play,

Hey I know!!!! How about the balance team look to marking this game like SMITE with mechs!! Or like a FPS DOTA knock off!!

So much win...

Which I say was a good start () and a HUGE SLAP ON THE FACE of certain people. They know who they are. <shrugs>

I would just like to point out that even in the lore, IS and clan where never really distinct. They both use the same weapons, always have. Clans just had better versions. So they were never distinct.

The only thing that really makes the techbases distinct are the weapons unique to them like MRMs, ATMs, RACs and heavy lasers. Otherwise they were already very similar.

Yep. In lore, most the IS stuff we're currently using - everything before 3049 TRO?

Already considered bad and replaced by better tech.

So tech balance in lore = throw out everything we had before 3049 TRO.
