Absolutely hate the @#%&*@)! game today. Stompville over and over again.

I hope the tier reset shakes itself out soon because this is no fun at all.

[Dionnsai]

yep, it's going to take a little while for everyone to get into the tier they belong in.

Oh sure, out of all the things in the lore, the one that makes into the game is stomps?

I don't even feel like it's PSR. It's just not matching tonnage correctly. I'm in matches where we have 1 assault vs 6 assaults. It's not even worth playing that match, our team just threw it.

the thing about assaults is that most of them tend to be piloted by players who think that a bigger more expensive mech will make them less of a potato. and then they get isolated and eaten by squirrels.

Tonnage is worth nothing if it's met by skill and teamplay. Did'nt recognize an unusual amount of stomps, either. Everyone has to chill for the time to come. We are all equal in regards of PSR for now.

I thougt this will happen. All were focussing on the new psr System. Only a few wrote in the Forums About the Disproportion of the weight classes. Distribution of the weight classes per Team is just as important as Tier rank. GG close!

I had a match earlier (conquest of course) that was decided by our team having enough lights (light group?) whereas the other team had heavy/assaults. It does depend on the team to live enough, but most of our team still died. That's where game mode = win

The play of a 4 man group has a disproportionate effect on the success of the match, and quite a few games will be won or lost before the drop. A lot of established players will be dropping in organized 4s over the next few days to hit t1 again, and if you are someone who does not care about the e-buddy aspect of the game, you will either have to carry really hard right now or just accept that it will be obnoxious for a few days. By this weekend you probably won't notice any difference.

The stomps will continue until moral improves...or you hide in a stealth mech and go steal killing.

[MrMadguy]

Dunno. I personally see improvement of match quality. Yeah, it's not 100% perfect, but my last match was 11:12. Haven't seen such close matches for a long time.

I saw an improvement immediately after the reset and before the event started, no nascar, people talked on coms and stuck together. I was seeing almost 10 good teams to one bad one. After the new event, that tended to fall apart.

[Aidan Crenshaw]

That's more likely due to a shift in prime time.

May be that's because PSR ratings started to spread, as players play more and more.

P.S. My last match was the greatest example of why skill >> weight. Enemy team was much lighter. It was 3 groups of same unit, exploiting same 'Mechs - 4 Incubuses and 2 Vapor Eagles. Plus fast commando. I saw only 1 Assault on their side. Our team was heavier. But my Assault was unskilled stock IS 'Mech. And our last player was almost fresh laser vomit Top Dog. And he failed to kill 2 crippled Incubuses/Vapor Eagles (don't remember exactly) due to spreading his attention between them too much and firing not at right moments, wasting his opportunities.

Man .... I got hit hard by this yesterday after the reset. Trying to clear an event challenge that required a new mech resulted in back to back roflstomping. If it's the same this evening, I'll sit this out until the bell curve emerges and I can enjoy a match without feeling like I'm being teabagged.

[Bowelhacker]

I'm going to continue the shitplay I always perpetrate in QP. **** the PSR, **** teams, **** not having fun.

The worst part of this is that to stop the good and bad players from having a big impact in a match they need to grind their way down or up, the solution is to unfortunately just wait a week or two for this to hopefully normalise.

[Knight Captain Morgan]

I want to enjoy the game but deleting the solo que lead to a massive increase in stomps to the point it was no longer enjoyable and I uninstalled. I was hoping the reset might help so I watched 3 matches on twitch last night, all 3 were stomps...

Figure I'm gonna sit this one out for a bit. Why they couldn't bothered to go back through the last 3 months of data and apply this system to pre-seed the tiers is beyond me. I blame the "community".
