This happens to me too! Usually I get a... feeling that the team is running this way though, before we actually get in contact.

YOU'VE ALL SEEN IT IF YOU PUG.

You may see all the little arrows on your minimap doing the benny hill, or gracelessly pirouetting around, aimlessly trying to follow where the arrow at the front is pirouetting... Maybe a few grand in LRM's will sail into the building in front of you... I'll just be starting to get that sinking feeling, when someone confirms it;

"PLAN?"

I feel it's time to be honest.

"Plan? I intent to charge ahead at max speed, preferably at as close to right angles to the general direction of advance as possible, scoff at the notion of sticking together (because 'complicated' plans are for PANSIES), LAUGH AT YOUR ATTEMPTS TO IMPOSE CONCENTRATED FIRE, DIE, blame everyone else for their lack of support, make disparaging comments about your general lack of ability while spectating you, then quit."

Anyone who doesn't agree is LYING.

How I imagine OP talking to his teammates in game.

If you're struggling consistently, it's far less likely that every round you're being paired with bad players than it is likely you are the primary factor in your losses.

In other words, you're bad. Get good.

how many times do i have to say it, STAY TOGETHER!!!!!! you too lights!!!

Yeah sure! And while we lights stay with your slow hunk of junk, making ourself easy targets, the enemy can go wherever he wants, without us knowing. Knowledge is half way to victory. We provide it for you.

I'd like to have Hello Kitty-camos to my mechs

Joining a team *will not help* with this. You'll still be teamed with at least four puggers, more if you're undersized. Just last match, simply asking "Plan?" at the start of the match got a guy to tell me to go kill myself. These people do not WANT to play on a team. They don't WANT to listen.

[Kaspirikay]

Do what i do, follow someone preferably an atlas, from a distance then when he engages you go in and help.

Of course, you dont have to help if hes running headon into 4 enemy heavies/assaults lol

There might be a small chance you are not always on team stupid, but it's you that brings stupid to the team hence why you lose on any team your placed in. ONLY YOU are the constant variable to all these losing matches, that or you are really unlucky... but methinks not.

[Stormwolf]

I try to drop in a group whenever possible, atleast then you'll have 4 usefull people with 4 PUG meatshields.

Sometimes a pugger will prove to be be useful, that will in crease your chances of victory.

Reach in your pants

Lift up your sack

Are you comfortable?

Carry the crap teams on your back

[Calmon]

From logical point: if you join a game as PUG there is a higher chance the opponent site has more/bigger teams than your site just by the fact that you join as single. I don't want to go into detail because such math usually generate unneeded discussions because people don't understand probabilistic.

I had to log in just to put my two cents into the argument.

Some of you seem intent on pulling a 180 on the OP and suggesting that he's the problem, but his original point stands as solidly as the Statue of Liberty during a hurricane. People can be royally stupid, simple-minded, and about as competent as a salted slug - and PUGs are generally worse by a factor of two.

As Agent K in MIB said, "Kid, a person is smart. People are dangerous, stupid animals - and you know it."

When you point the finger at someone...

...how many fingers of that hand point back at you?

Try it out, you'l find the answer on who's to blame. Most of the time that is.

(and if your not happy, please join a TS chanel - there are so many available that you can join without joining any guild or clan or whatever)

Take a look at my new sig. It describes the situation perfectly.

Lets play a game... well call it follow the trial atlas. When anyone sees him they will go far and above "out of their way" to stomp all over his day. Use this opportunity to kill who ever comes out to drill his RT they usually stand quite still as if taking the time to enjoy it. 4 ER large lasers to the face later you're up one kill and after the next 4 thats two under par by that time they figure out somethings wrong but your derpy death machine friend has closed the gap and is firing on all cylinders becoming quite a real threat (all those alphas are bound to kill SOMEONE) after that its pretty much up to the fates lol

Oh, yes, stroke that... astounding intellect.

Keep trying. I don't think even a PUG would consider anything you just stated as good advice.

Wait. Maybe that's why they're dying in droves...
