If you only have 2000 lrms on a lrm mech, you are doing it wrong. Need 4000+ ammo.

I have 6300 on my supernova... was in the game against OP, ran it dry. Don't feel bad OP, we were a premade 12 man.

I was in that match on the other team and we would never, ever run an lrm heavy with only a paltry 2000 missiles. Of that I can assure you good sir.

[Limitl3ss]

Yeah the SNV-A you were being killed by have a minimum of 5500 rounds. Oh yeah and the heat is negligible. #thankschris

Only encountered a few LRM boats while playing tonight. All were swarmed by lights and taken out. A nice sight.

All this just confirms how ridicoulos this is. Far from the way this game should be.

So what you are saying is that the game should be so that uncoordinated players can jump on and be rock stars and not die horribly to the lurms?

Exactly what changes could possibly be done for this to happen...exactly???

Like weaken lights that take far more abusement than heavies even assaults (flea chased by 5 mechs for 2 minutes on open ground)? Don't buff ammo numbers like lately? Don't let a light machinegun a heavy down in 5 seconds?

None of that would have saved you from our lurms.

Faced CWM lurm comp on Caustic. Pushed into them and rightly destroyed them.

[Nightbird]

If you tried, you wouldn't lose to LRMs?

Clammers complaining about the LURMs.




Now I have seen all.

Chasing a squirrel and having poor marksmanship are going to lose your team the match every time, regardless. Just sayin'. Open ground pulled the 'squirrel-chasers' out of cover and into the grinder that is an LRM pre-made. Facing a prepared strategy is par for the course in FW, or at least it damn well should be.

Yeah.....

So if you are having the issues you describe with lights, it's your aim. If you are one of those five chasing one light, stop it.

Funny that everyone states his/her superiority. Why am I even trying.

Just telling you how to defeat them.

That's .... quite a victory, eh?

[justcallme A S H]

Im confused at to how to even interpret that screenshot other than 5-6 lights ran to cap base and well, that was it.

[Appogee]

I don't enjoy being on either side of a LRM-fest.

I'm not sure there's much any of us can do about it until Chris comes to his senses, or his superiors call time on this meta.

Then again, I think maybe Chris, Paul and Russ might just be delighted that they're catering so well to LRM-toting new players who can't aim.

A win is a win. The other team should feel bad for being up 2-1 on kills and losing to cap.
