Oh ok then.

Well at least I can say something positive since I dropped a couple matches with you, you're actually fun to play with in game.

There is no difference between tier one and two other than in two you get a few more games with low tier guys. Mostly tier two mixes in with the ones.

Depends on what Tier seeded the MM. The part of the differences between Tier 1 and Tier 2 atm (currently have an alt in Tier 2), the saltiness and the "PTSD" type mindset of the lower MS players, while some of the higher MS players retreating in an attempt to use the other players as cannon fodder. Tis damned if a you do, and damned if you don't. Instead of most having the mindset "lets make them pay" by standing, a couple may attempt to stand their ground that but the rest is in route mode, not returning any type of fire.

how can they return fire when they are too busy to run away.
afaik, mechs in MWO dont have backward weapons. that would improve ALOT of peoples scores.

Have lots of alts dude.

I see the exact same people in tier one and tier two accounts other than when the search wheel spins a long time.

Even created a brand spanking new one to see if I can make tier one in under 500 games in 20 tonners only.

The mighty Urbie can shoot backwards. But then again, who runs away from a fight in an Urbie?

If there's an Urbie on the field, is it even a fight?

- Depends of build. Some Urbanmech like little atlas in light class. You cant kill it and even without weapon that little tin-can still spy on you and send data to enemy.

I've been having technical issues with my computer - I think the bolt-ons pushed the performance requirements higher than my settings can handle. I think I have it solved, but... when I played my last few matches, I didn't have very good... teammates. I don't mean that we lost, or they did stupid things tactically, or anything like that. I mean they were jackasses with microphones, and not fun to play with. Also stupid, but that was just the chocolate on top of the cow pie.

I'm hoping it was just an outlier, but I'm having more fun with other games than I had in those two matches, so...

Up !

Serisouly we gottta know !

Does preventing your teamates from dying alone drive wins ?

plz more pages on this.
