[MrXanthios]

ranting against lrms and whoever uses them is always understandable

[Monkey Lover]

FP isnt worth the anger

[Bombast]

LRMs in FP you say?

[Eisenhorne]

We used them as ranged DPS, just as PGI intended.

aww cmon, periodically ranting about the no skill noobtubes of frustration is healthy and after the patch they will be even more stupid

but you know.... #balance

seems like a good time to take an indefinite break

[El Bandito]

Dying to streams of lurms is understandably frustrating, especially to the average pugs who are not prepared to deal with LRMs being used in organized fashion. Pugs hate FP enough already...

Thats why I have a double AMS crab and battlemaster
Feels good to easily shoot down like 1000 missiles while just sitting behind a hill

Until you get narc'd - no amount of AMS shoots down 240+ tubes.

As much as people mechwarriors! whined about LRM viability prebuff a few patches ago, it will only get worse later today.

It's actually pretty bad with how well LRMs can completely kill a match, add one or two narc shooters and it is disgusting what we do - so much so I have more or less stopped playing FP with the guys I used to play with, simply because our ideas of fun have changed.

Much sad.

If only we have mechs with some equipment that counter lerms targeting to choose them for open maps, but we don't

I wouldn't be the one out of cover. I would be the one in between the missile boat and its target. That can shoot down a LOT of missiles. Especially clan - feels like somewhere around an lrm 20 in a single volley easily

thats cute, you don't need to be out of cover, you'll be in cover, all of a sudden you'll see a little narc icon on your screen and while you're trying to figure out where it came from you'll already have about 1000 missiles en route, a few seconds later there are chunks coming off your mech and you're dead

I assure you that the only player on the field playing aggressive was the narcer.

Our lurm boats being properly built rely and on cover and cowardice to stay alive since none of them have any armor. Armor is silly as it takes away from ammo and when you generally end up ejecting before you are below 85%, why waste precious, precious ammo tonnage.

There is a lot that is put into organised, anti-social lurming clearly designed to make people rage quit from the game.

Which sucks since we need your narcing skillz to continue ruining the game for other people....

Behold, my favorite Inner Sphere FP LURM BOAT! - https://mech.nav-alp...37f39650_FNR-5E

Note the 368/614 armor... It's beautiful.
