I Thou shall not say "Kill All" when asked "what is thy plan"

II Thou shall not say "AC20 is Over Powered"

III Thou shall not "Blame teammates for loss"

IV Thou shall not wander into the distance at start of game

V Thou shall not go afk at start of game to earn "C-Bills"

VI Thou shall not type more in chat then help in team fights

VII Thou shall not be an "LRM Battery and complain for not being protected"

VIII Thou shall remember to set auto reload and repair so one is prepared for next fight

IX Thou shall not kill one's own teammates on purpose (admit it does happen on accident)

X Thou shall not yell at founders for having better mechs; if you want a better mech farm or buy one

XI Thou shall not fail to lock thy targets, so that thine eye might see what thine weapons should shoot, and thine teammates might assist thee from afar.

XII Thou shall not fire thine weapons to see yon fireworks upon the land, nor upon the sky, nor upon thy teammates, for such is waste of ammo and maketh thou a beacon unto thine enemies and a scourge unto thine allies.

XIII Thou shall not covet the kills of thine teammate, nor shalt thou gnash thine teeth and rend thine own garments should a teammate steal a kill thought to be rightfully thine, whilst saving you from the ravages of thine enemies.

XIV Thou shall never engage in battle beneath yon dropship, lest the commander become wroth with thee when thee becometh stuck, and thus engage lift engines upon thee.

XV Thou shall do all in thy power to learn thy weapon, and thy 'mech, and thy cockpit beforest thee stepeth unto the field of battle, lest ye becometh paniced in melee and placeth fear within thy teamates' hearts.

XVI Thou shall not casteth these commandments with ridicule that the number be greater than ten, but shall tend thy lessons.

So it is written so it is said, Thou will check back for more updates and further commandments

I'm dying here

[Hardplace]

Though shall not ask me to lock targets for you, because you wouldnt ask someone to do something you dont want to do yourself right?

These commandments might apply in PUG games and to new players, but some of them certainly don't in premades of veteran players. I understand that these are geared towards newbie, but caveat emptor nonetheless

Commandment 8 is pretty meh in general. Auto-repair, sure, but auto-reload can be turned off and abuse the fact that the game reloads 75% of your ammo for you, saving on the repair bill when grinding. Budgeting a couple "extra" tons for ammo and not re-arming after each match lets you get away with 10-50,000 fewer C-Bills per repair bill.

Also, please lrn2grammar.

Thou shall not QQ about getting stomped by a pre-made when pugging when thou showest no interest in joining one of the TS3 servers in existence and evidently cannot be bothered trying to co-ordinate tactics with thy teammates.

Thou shall not complain about any weapons being OP when running a LRMcat/streakcat/gausscat

Thou shall not QQ when you run a streak/gauss-cat and a pre-made decides to focus fire on thy mech before those of thine teammates.

Let the drama commence!

1. That actually is my plan most of the time.
2. K
3. K.
4. I'm a fast mech, thats what we do, flank the enemy and fire into those sweet sweet rear sections.
5. K.
6. I can chat if I want to. Chat IS contributing to the fight if you are relaying positions and equipment on enemy mechs.
7. K.
8. Selective repair and rearming saves c-bills. Maybe I don't need full ammo for my AC/s or SRMS. Likewise, why fully repair my arms when there isn't anything in there? I might only want to fully repair my torsos/legs.
