Are you extremely dense? "Its not forbidden to use MG against mechs". So f'ing what? That doesnt make a MG a primary anti-armor/anti-mech weapon.
Total Warfare knows no
"primary anti-armor/anti-mech weapon". This is your own idea.
Feel free to post the exact page and/or quote where
Total Warfare mentions some "
primary anti-armor/anti-mech weapons".

Yes, if someone is lucky enough, MGS can take out a mech in Battletech, if someone is lucky enough, an infantryman with a rifle, can take out a plane, in real life, if they are lucky enough too. So what? Its not a primary anit-mech weapon, no matter how much you dream about it.

As I said in my previous post, players are free to use any weapon they have, against any target they see (unless specifically forbidden by the rules).

The TRO talks about a PACK of Pirhanas, not one.
1) I checked the original
TRO and it really does not say that the
Piranha must operate in packs every single time. This is your own idea.
It merely says that operating in groups would probably be better.
2) The original
TRO then continues with
"[As for using the pack tactics]
... none have been sighted attacking in such a way."
The individual
Piranha attacks are absolutely okay both in
BattleTech and in
MWO.

OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY GOD!!!!!!!!!!! You mean that people can shoot things at more than one kind of thing? WOW. We got a regular Rhodes Scholar here guys!
I merely told you how the things work in
BattleTech, according to the
Total Warfare ruleset.
Perhaps you should return when you are better.

And yes, most of the medium mech in this game are a joke, because their level of firepower is made moot by the way the cool down cycle is made. And whoopdie do, you saw some Javins, probably crutch boy MG ones, how many Pirhanas, Fleas, and MG VOF Crutch lights did you see? I bet more than you saw Javelins.
Actually, I saw SRM
Javelins and of course JVN-11A
Javelin that PGI gave away a few months ago.
On the other hand, I did not see the "
crutch boy MG ones".

I dont care about the range of MG's, the mechs are fast enough to cover the distance, the average engagement range puts MG close enough to put 15 f'ing of them to use.
This is why you must maintain good situational awareness and look around to spot enemy light 'Mechs, so you can use your big guns to kill them before they can get close enough.
By the way, how many MWO 'Mechs can carry 15 machine guns?

In tabletop, the randomness of shot placement, makes Pirhanas not a threat, and the regular Pirahna sprays all over the place, hitting mostly both legs and both arms, making them less than lethal.
If you think that a fast Clan 'Mech, that is capable of dishing out 43 damage, is not a threat in
BattleTech ...
I wonde how successful you are in
BattleTech.

The MGs and Micros in the game are abused in high vof lights, I don't care how much you want to rationalize it.
If those
"high vof lights" are so good, why do they often end the game with the low Match Score?
If those
"high vof lights" are so good, why is not the queue full of
"high vof lights", "exploiting" their advantage?
If those
"high vof lights" are so good, why are both teams often composed of assault, heavy and medium 'Mechs, with one or two token light 'Mechs on both sides (and those light 'Mechs are often not your
"high vof lights")?
If those
"high vof lights" are so good, why am I seeing top players in
Blood Asp,
Mad Cat Mk. II or
Night Gyr and not in MG-boating
Piranha or MG-boating
Flea?

I am not spending another dollar on the game until things get fixed, or the game gets shut down, whichever is first. With the way that the game is bleeding players, and that the Dev's cant keep or hire staff, that wont be long.
With
"until things get fixed", do you actually mean "until the game is changed to suit my personal needs"? This could be a long waiting. And if it really happens, the players will just switch to a different 'Mech/weapon combo.

Maybe a Dev team, that has actually played tabletop, and realize how stupid this Dev team is for its coldowns/rof BS can make a game that isnt run by cancerous light mech crutch-boy players.
Finis'
Just buy PIR-1
Piranha and run it exclusively for a month. Make screenshot of every game - of course, you can record videos too, so we have something to talk about. I guess that you will return as T1 player in a month, if the
Piranha is so OP and easy to play as you said.
