stick to the quick play queue and save the team slots in FP for someone of average capability...

Pics or it didnt happen...

heh, I saw a guy do 75 damage over 4 mechs yesterday. I've seen guys do sub 50 damage as well. It's astounding how bad these players must be. Like, they must have never played a single game and jumped right into FP with trial mechs and no idea how to play at all. Or they were literally born without hands (or feet, you can apparently aim with your feet and do pretty well).

Maybe 4 spotting ams battlemech troll deck for the event ?

2.4k across 4 of them was my best …

Faction Play should be gated somehow so that absolute novices cant get in. Its for their own benefit i swear. The problem is, what metric do we use to gate the rookies just by Tier seems flawed.

People complain when I run twelve mans but this is why it is preferred.

[Bowelhacker]

Were they guys doing specific roles though? Narcing? Capping in light and fast mechs? That could almost be an excuse...

Using an alt - Against another pug team was not very difficult. Against a premade and linebacker rush on a pug team.. use ya friendlies as shields!! At least Clan Trials are better than IS trials.

This is mind numbing...

Considering the spawn camping that goes on, I know it's perfectly possible for veteran players to do absurdly poor..

I had a match where my first mech was capping and got one-shotted, then next two mechs died to spawn camping, and last mech managed to run away, then got one-shotted again.. I think I did like 200-ish damage in total damage that match..

Very next match, when no big stompy units was around, same dropdeck did 2500+ damage, 3 solo kills, 9 kills and 7KMDDs.. so you know..

it's very situational..

Also.. you only see end-game scores.. the person could have been one-shotted in a light first wave, and then discoed or afk for the rest of the match.. we don't know that..

My lowest ever score was 250, just a week ago.

It was a Conquest Match. I dropped first in a triple-AMS Mech to give some protection from the endless missile spam that characterised the recent event, but then had to spend most of the match capping because my team kept falling behind in the cap war.

I reckon most of that 250 came from a strike I placed on Theta along the way

But yeah, I've often seen PUGs do sub-200 damage in FP matches. I'm pretty sure they're not AMSing and capping, either.

[K O Z A K]

Conquest in FP is different. You will always have very strong players that score sub 1k because they ran around caps all drop. As far as I'm concerned it's the only mode where victory conditions aren't "cut down all the red doritos" though
