Seriously why do you even care? Quit "reaching out to me". It doesn't work out well. So insistent on trying to fix people you view as broken or defective or weak.

Don't really care all that much, just saying if you don't like the game or the community there's probably something more interesting you could be doing with your time.

Which day is best for you for Steiner Coliseum?

Thanks for the switch up, the Coliseum was fun to get to play even with clan mediums.

After last couple matches?

Nope. You're wrong. I'm going to go back to legging people now. No reason not to. This is the game they want to play. You can tell because they keep doing it to you. That and the Flamers.

This isn't about fun. This is just an expedited grind method.

i got 134 lootbags yesterday, barring one game where i accidentally queued up for qp, it was all in eq. and barring a few target of opportunity situations, i did it without intentional legging. you can fondle people's mechfeet all you want, the numbers say there are better places to hit a mech.

oh and i also had fun.

Why are you bringing the enemy closer to you?

gauss rifle

nice 0 temperature
You can have a spare gun.

the ultimate weapon in this event is the humble srm. though i made vomit work on a couple mechs, and a uac20 on one of my veagles. if you can keep distance on a solaris map with a gauss, good luck with that. it might last for 2 shots and then you're brawling whether you wanted to or not.

Good for you? I finished the lootbags and got the SCR, and now I get to go see if QP is going to be enjoyable. Everybody got what they wanted.

Nevermind, the SCR is garbage. Whatever.

My performance is good in single player matches.
because I can follow the trend.
the map is clear.
class is clear.
I can observe the density
I can analyze widely used machines.

It is clear where the enemy will come from.
I can take my guard.
My back is clean.
my fault is my fault.
success is my success.
I love it.

I destroyed a lot of enemies today, I still continue.
I had so much fun today.
I like to wait for the next opponent.

It would be nice if it was a multiplayer DM.
without teams.
I would compare myself to a real gladiator.
i love this feeling.
i love this mod.

There is a song in there somewhere!

i ran veagles

Those have crappy hitboxes so it's a good choice for 1:1 combat for sure!

Because SRM SPAM is AWESOME!!! and eats your Gauss and Legs away before you can do anything about it!

High DPS FTW!!!

torso and 3 4 shots. 1 2 lasers, you have to be very agile.
There are some that can, but it's rare.

I think most of the players are with you there, or half in a fifth.

put a couple uac10s on it. it works for the duration of the ammo. this mech has the same problem as the crab florentine. dual ballistic loadout without the tonnage to use good ballistics.

only ran them because they had < 20 games on them. im honestly not sure what id run if id just want to win, probibly one of the usual srm spam platforms like the arctic wolf or huntsman.

Missile mounts are high, forget how energy mounts sit, but you could ignore the ballistic mounts re: crab

hardpoint height is for hill humpers.

[MechWarrior5782621]

The larger events seem to work a lot better for event queue. It's not much fun when a JGx 2-man is paired up against 2 random pugs. 6v6 or 8v8 is good. There's no need to allow groups at all, imo.

Which gives me an idea for something to do with the SCR maybe, since I don't see ballistic being worthwhile and I wasn't really thrilled with uPL/SPL spam in QP.

[LordNothing]

i sold the hero since i had that one already, but i kept the omnipods. i bought a scr-b, since i didnt have one. put i think the left arm omnipod. between the ammo quirks, the uac jam chance, the skills, and the 3 tons of ammo, makes a good uac10 platform.

I want to express how much fun this event is. Particular the 2vs2. Most of the matches I had were really good. Personally I think its most often more fun with mediums and lights due to the mobility and not so much a running at each others and just blasting legs off. Happened here too of course, but most matches I had turned out rather challenging and fun especially on maps like Ishiyama.
Really fun and I hope there will be even more 2vs2 on Solaris matches.

[LordNothing]

could we do 2v2 with decks?
