Matchmaker sucks. Teams are stacked. Tonnage is imbalanced. Bad players don't know what they're doing.

We know. I hate this weekend too.

But STFU and get off the comms. Nobody wants to hear you whine. It's distracting and your negativity doesn't help. Rant here in forums if you want. Don't disrupt in-game chat with your incessant useless chatter that contributes no useful information to the fight.

I've had someone die within 3 minutes then spent the entire match ranting at the team and telling them how terrible they were :)

Mechwarrior Online, like many other games, have this useful function called a 'mute button'.

When you press it the player is muted. Pretty amazing right?

I don't mind a bit of whining, the problem is when they've been silent the whole match up until the point they've died.

Should be an auto-mute for dead mechwarriors.

I see you don't like knowing what the team's plan is, very nice.

Imagine the team deciding not to nascar and you not noticing because comms are off. I hope your map awareness is good.

God I hate this kind of people. Several players discuss the plan, make a firing line and wait, but 2-3 guys with mute just yolorotate into enemy assaults anyway

I think that something people forgot is that Nascar is a plan, it may be an unspoken defacto plan, but nevertheless it is still a plan.

I had this guy start screaming in comms about how the whole team was a bunch of ******* because he was trying to hide his Faffy behind my Basp and I was making good trades poking the ramp on HPG. After about 20-30 seconds of ranting he dropped down and started blasting our own team in the back. Reported and moved on.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

So... I shouldn't use a voice changer, and start quoting pLaGuE-dOg from Starsiege?

I personally don’t mind people being vocal with matchmaking BS, however, I wish more people would bring this up to PGI’s attention so they can put it on higher on their “improvements” list and promise us changes that are never going to happen.

What would be better would be comms with friends or units before the match..
