I just played a game.

I got killed by a heavy.

That's not fair.

Mediums are OP too. Let's talk about how to nerf them.

And, if we can't nerf anything, let's talk about how to make my sit-in-back-and-press-a-button-build deadlier.

Too much effort. I should be able to get the reticle on anyone and they just explode.

That, or all the other mechs can only carry one weapon like I do.

Game is OP. Let us talk how to nerf it!
+ finally not lights are OP thread! Give OP to a badge for this!

Generally say:
If one got killed by anything (falling rock, lights, heavies, Yondu Udonta) that that would call OP and for the universe's sake need to nerf...

Posted Image

Like this. The locust call the (well that) OP and cries to nerf it. Then die.
Oh, and give us Fire moth! Then tons of OP threads would born everyday.
Or give us the nuke Urbie and Wolf Dragoons would cry everyday.
Or give us whatever what accidentally kill someone ingame and cries and cries would occur everyday.

Let us face the irrevocable truth:
Life is OP! Let us talk how to nerf it...

That locust most definitely has right to think that Ur-Quans are OP.

Lights and mediums should be able to pick up and carry the heavies and just place them in my line of sight so that I can push a button and LRM them to death.

Because looking around is kinda like moving: I might get shot. It's better if I could just stay in one place and not look around when I press my button.

That's the direction this game needs to go.

Not until Blood Rose gets a similar badge for the thread about OP assault mechs. Give credit where credit is due.

I don't like how <arbitraryplayergroup> plays. I think their play style is cheating and should be nerfed. I think this because one time i got killed by <arbitraryplayergroup> while playing my own <arbitrarynicheplaystyle> and therefore I think what I play also should be buffed. However if <arbitrarynicheplaystyle> is used to kill me in any way it should be nerfed right away. Things that I like should be buffed and things that I dont should be nerfed immediately.

Now we're talking. My only other complaint would be that the nerfs happen too slow. If I could just drop, and they just start nerfing the enemy team, preferably before they see me, that would be ideal.

How to balance, all get one gun. Only one medium laser allowed. Only one model is allowed but the model has the hardpoint in different locations to give options. The mechs have no restriction on how to put the armor and you can max the rear torso. No mech is able to reach less tonnage than the max armor. The mechs are launched during the game in pairs. The mechs have no classification and based on tonnage. There's only one tonnage but it gives a choice to think there was. They all have the same speed of 80kph but can go lower for a standard engine. Center front torso is immune to damage but can be destroyed by critical hits. Ammo is only allowed to be in the arm to prevent player from killing themselves by placing it in the head, it was the traditional place for ammo before CASE.

There are no ballistics but you get match scores for carrying explosive bins. Game usually goes at 1st stage of finding the golden flea. Once the flea has been found it need to be captured. Once the golden flea is captured and disabled the other put up a firing squad on a hill and the rest of the team abandon them. The other team's goal is to destroy the mechs on the hill by rushing in behind their backs while the team is going for laps around a circuit to score points. Meanwhile the lance marathon is live and it has already reached half a lap running around the entire map. Their goal is to reach stations to fill on energy to their engines and return to the base to collect match scores. An atlas makes the silly walk, while some smaller atlas walking right behind and try to mimic the silly walk at best them can to increase the buff even further.
