It does seem like the 'flavor of the month' builds were a lot less varied in the past, probably due to how few mechs were in the game. Remember these guys:
GuassCat (because hardpoint design)
ML Awesome (hello engine cap)
Streak Ravens (light mechs were good once!)
SplatCat (not quite ready for ECM)
6PPC Stalker (hello ghost heat)
Poptart Highlander (goodbye jump jets)
I'm sure I missed some. It's weird to think that we've been here off and on for seven years now.

Doh, beat me to it
Back in the day we only needed one jump jet on our poptart assault mechs
True Story mang
Those were the days, my archived stats for the 733C are still the highest of any of my 'Mechs lol, after all this time. Can't beat poptart AC 20 PPCx2 wombo combo, with SRMs on the side!

My last game before the Skill tree Change disaster was a six kill nail biter.... The last kill was a fast medium Huntsman that we ended up the last two.........he never anticipated a Heavy that could turn on a dime and had jump jets.........we won.......
And, that was the last match where I had any fun in this game.... Just before this match, the team I was on left MWO en masse and I joined another established team...........and, they left en masse that August of the same year.....
Now, as many other do, I dabble in events and wonder what the game "could have been" if they "just left it alone...."

I remember when Artemis first was introduced, creating the first and nastiest Lurmageddon. Holy crap, the missile trajectory they used on that was disgusting.
I remember people constantly griping about mech repair/reload bills. Which I never understood. I started tracking my c-bill income/repair ratios and found that I never lost money on a match. And I sucked as bad at this game then as I do now.
I remember the falling scene for a Jenner. As often as I had to watch it, it's burned into my brain.
I remember Gausscats... So many Gausscats...
I remember how expensive it was to max out the skills for a mech. And having to play all those variants that I didn't like to do so.
I remember when Caustic was the only real NASCAR map.
