I think in general, the best Event Queues are Drop-Deck, 8v8, max group size 1-2. The modifiers could be anything except reduced armor/speed, those are NOT fun.
  • I really like drop-decks that allow for use of all tonnage classes. But I don’t think mixed tonnage drop-decks should have modifiers like increased speed or armor because the disparity between tonnage classes creates a problematic dynamic.
  • For specific tonnage class drop-decks, I prefer Assaults-only, Heavies-only, and Mediums-only.
  • Lights-only drop-decks can be kind of miserable because streak volleys can one-shot some Light mechs. However, I did like lights-only events with increased armor because it increased survivability against streak-boating Lights.
  • Increased armor modifiers work well for all tonnage-specific games, drop-deck or not.
  • Increased speed modifiers don’t work well when it comes to Light and Medium mechs simply because some go too fast and mess with hit-reg.
  • I don’t think chassis-specific games are necessarily bad, but not everyone has a certain chassis so it can lead to longer queue times.
  • Of course, there’s the infamous Urbie Derby which I feel tends to get boring after a few matches, however some people absolutely love to play it. I don’t think it’s a problem to run it, but please don’t over-spam it.
  • I think the max heat dissipation modifier absolutely needs to be paired with increased armor. Why? Because you can do giga-delete builds. Max heat dissipation events also present another issue where it requires an understanding of HSL groups and their heat values to make previously mentioned giga-delete builds. Considering the Event Queue is open tiers, I don’t think many lower-tier players have an idea of making optimal builds for this modifier.
Some game modes for certain maps have terrible combinations:
  • The Assault game mode is probably the worst for a drop-deck game, even for a non-drop-deck games. There’s been instances where a group of cap spiders capped out a base in a couple minutes while everyone else was engaging. Not fun anyone, just a waste of time to queue up for that.
  • Similarly, if you don’t have FP tickets for Domination or Conquest drop-deck, there’s really no point to have drop-decks on some maps (small maps like Vitric being the exception)
  • I hope they get FP tickets for drop-deck Conquest! It’s so fun! With regular tickets you’d be hard-pressed to use anything more than two mechs in a drop-deck mode (without throwing).

I would love for this to become a normal game mode. SO MUCH fun.

Let's do HPG next with a 200T limit!

Solaris 1v1s and 2v2s with assault mechs.

Maps HPG Emerald Vale or canyon with greatly increased projectile velocity something like double velocity for ballistic weapons maybe.

And also one with something like -80% cooldown something like that old -1000% cooldown quickdraw thing but for every weapon.

I request a short range brawl event. Limiting all weapons max range to around 270m where no weapons do any damage beyond 270m. Preferably limiting to a class such as heavy/assault. Alternatively, for different event short-mid range brawl increase range a little bit to ~400m.

"NERF MODE"/"SLAP FIGHT"

-50% Weapon Velocity
+50% Laser Duration
-30% Top Speed
Heavies only


This is just slight tweak of my suggestion from last time, that a lot of people seemed to like.

Lets see: what's fun? and ignoring what majority thinks! Posted Image

Answer:
  • 12V12
  • Escort - Tourmaline
  • Incursion - River City
  • Conquest - Alpine Peaks
  • Brawl - Solaris Arena
The rest - what's the point, we play it anyway Posted Image I like the concept though! Thumbs up for the idea.

Bring back scouting mode. Exactly the way it was before you essentially removed it from the game. That's all
