well technically you would be the noob since the games objective is to cap the enemy base and you should be helping them but continue to qq away because you dont get your way.

Yep it sure is my fault. Its a shame that you guys don't even see how terrible you all made this game trying to farm for virtual money. Oh well guys it was fun! Have a nice night!! See you guys on the field, or pretty much on my base when I destroy you LMAO

Yeah... so either this is a huge troll thread or OP is in fact prepubecent.

my bet is prepubecent. at least mentaly

[Fabe]

Honestly I think the problem is that people are to ridged ,they either just want to try and cap when they should be fighting or they or fight when they should be capping or moving to block a cap. Instead they need to try and be flexible and adapt to the how the battle is flowing and change tactics when needed.

You mean mentally. You should spell check before you try to insult somebody, especially when it's available.

You win. May you have continued success on the battlefield.

in closed beta I just puged now I try to get a team and I have found when we are flexible we win 90%

[Squid von Torgar]

What they should do is lock the bases for say 5-10 minutes. During that time they cant be captured. After that then fill your boots.

[F lan Ker]

S!

Sometimes capping fast is the only viable option to avoid a defeat when outgunned by the opposing team. Sometimes it is a slug fest happening. Both have their place in MWO and being out-capped does not bother me, hats off for the stunt pulled successfully Then it would be a problem if all were just doing that every single match, but now it is not that usual IMHO.

it didnt take you very long for your fail arguments to devolve into grammarnazing. That's what people do when they've run out of stupid arguments but refuse to accept that they're wrong.

if the game is too easy, then maybe you should go play a different one. No one here cares what you do. There's no need for you to pretend that you're some sort of badass when everything about your posts screams "overcompensating", all the way up to your name. No one cares.

Stop capping and GET SOME KILLS. I'm getting tired of having to be stuck with 2-3 Capwarriors since they cried so much to eliminate 8 man premades which forces my team to make separate groups instead of being able to play together.

Man I got some bad news for you.

You're not going to be able to spend the majority of time with your buddies stomping noobs when 8 man teams are back on the matchmaker. At first you'll mainly run into other groups looking to do the same, and once every few matches you'll run into competitive units that will totally mop the floor with you.

Sorry bud, but you sound just like the kind of guy who liked NHUA back in MW4.

I wonder if the op played WoT. I'd wager he was a "kill all don't cap" type.

So he's allowed to make a post that has nothing to do with the topic but make an offensive remark saying I am mentally challenged and I'm not even allowed to at least correct his grammar? Please, don't throw insults and then attack me for insulting. Real rich.

And yes, I am very capable of finding other things to do. Don't be mad at me for my opinion LOL. You guys are trying to attack me more just because I don't approve of your Capwarrior mentality, says a lot about yourself and pretty much sums up this beta community. When I first started playing this game, the game was fun and people were playing and shooting each other. Ever since the economy was implemented, all you guys can do is cry and whine about overpowered builds and rushing capping just to make CBills. It's gotten to the point where matches are being ended without either side doing at least 100 dmg. You say you don't care but here you are like a moth to the flame. Thanks for being a bigger douchebag than me.

1) I can't wait for 8 man teams to come on so my group can finally play together again and we can get some good games going instead of half of the teams running for caps like fools. Win or lose, makes no difference to me.

2) I never played NHUA. Since you brought it up, I actually played in NBT which was a PURETECH FIRST PERSON ONLY LEAGUE. A lot of teams couldn't handle playing in NBT because of the rules. But that has nothing to do with this conversation so go practice more.

Seriously, you guys are all trying to show me as a troll here but I don't even have to post. You guys are continue arguing with everybody who doesn't follow what you say, just look at every other forum on the thread. All the crying and whining that you guys do are going to keep continuing regardless if I post. Maybe all the griefing and immaturity in this forum have something to do with you guys more than my little troll post. LOL

Let me tell you where I'm coming from. I'm a member of Team Banzai (yes that Team Banzai), and most of us are still around waiting and watching how this title develops, though a few are already active in the game under new handles.

Back then and in the future if we choose to adopt this title officially our primary goal was to help new and experienced players to better themselves, our forums were neutral ground and the Banzai Institute For Advanced Armored Warfare was the only place in the entire mechwarrior community that recognized and actively tried to make getting into this community as friendly as possible to newbies. With the exception of special events, or league matches, our servers were run with the same ideals. We were also a pretty competitive team in most major leagues, a unit to be reckoned with, despite our casual nature.

If there was anything more morally repugnant to us than experienced players taking advantage of noobs for kicks, I can't think of what it might have been....









I could be reading you wrong. It happens easily in forums. But all I heard at the end of your OP was whining about loosing 8 man teams without any further comment, and considering that when you had your 8 man teams all you faced was pugs the majority of the time...well it comes off like that's where your were deriving enjoyment out of the game and I just have zero respect for that.

You are judged by the quality of your enemies

Personally I'd sooner see premades out of the equation altogether until its only premade vs premade and pug vs pug.

I played premade for one night with guys I haven't played with since Jeho was threatening to hard code Team Banzai out of his precious mekpaks and around the time Card's tearing him a new one got DSC shut down for days.... half of the guys only installed the game that day and were using trial mechs. I think we managed 6 guys at one point, but over a few hours it was usually 4 or 5 of us and we only lost two rounds to captures.

We steamrolled over everything that engaged us whether it was pug or premade with 4 or 5 guys on average in a drop. Along wight a couple 8 man premades we wiped the floor with trying to recruit us.

It was all just too easy.

I personally refuse to fight in a group if all I'm going to be faced with is random noobs the majority of the time and so do most of the guys. Everything about it has a negative impact on the future success of this title. Experienced players pounding the snot out of noobs isn't my idea of a good time, and a sure way to discourage many of them from ever investing any time or (more importantly for the survival of this community) money into the game.

"Give me a worthy opponent" is what I would be demanding from PGI, and THAT is a sentiment I can respect.


A tiny part of me hopes your the kind that wants even matches....but the cynic in me is just playing the odds....

[Gaeb]

Did you know capping is much @#%#@%@#%ing faster and wastes less of your team's time resulting in more CBILLS per second on a reliable basis?

[Redmond Spiderhammer]

I'll be honest... I hate the capping mechanic. Currently way to often one or both teams just run for the base and it ends up being a boring fight or often non fight. That being said, its a valid tactic and we are pretty much stuck with it until they offer up an alternate game mode. Given any choice at all I'd never play another round with the current capture mechanic.

[Tarman]

OP is a cute widdle killer, isn't he folks? He is here to kill things, and if you're not doing it like he is, say by going all crazy and winning the match with objectives that are part of the game, then he is here to show you that you are wrong every time.

Seriously dude, wait for a deathmatch mode and stop peeing your pants over this so much.

[Daekar]

Two things: Kudos to the OP at successfully trolling far more people than he had any right to, considering how obvious he was being about it. To the trolled, shame on you for swollowing the bait so completely. When somebody acts as if they're God's gift to the game and uses the word "noob" excessively... that's a hint.

Oh yes, the actual topic. This seems to be a rare issue. Usually the teams I'm on will kill 6 or 7 enemies and then cap, unless the last enemy is really asking for it. This means lots of pewpew. The OP should have chosen a real issue to troll about, unless he was just shooting for further shame on the part of the Trollees.

[Grugore]

If they brought the damage values on LRMs up near where they used to be, it would be harder to cap, since missile boats could actually help kill things. Just saying.

Do people know that you only get 7500 extra cbills (2.500 for assist, 5.000 for cap) for capping?

You get up to 30000 cbills for Salvage bonus.

Stop capping and GET SOME KILLS. I'm getting tired of having to be stuck with 2-3 Capwarriors since they cried so much to eliminate 8 man premades which forces my team to make separate groups instead of being able to play together.

I pilot an Assault Mech. My job description: Assault the enemy base, and remove it from them as efficiently and as swiftly as I can.

My mech: Atlas, ASSAULT CLASS. It is designed with one purpose. To bring as much fire power as I can strap into it to my enemies door step, then send the door itself into the next galaxy as I march into your base and remove you from it. It is also designed to take as much punishment as it can, WHILE I am doing this.

You go fight, YOU go get kills.

[Sean von Steinike]

Defend your base, get plenty of kills. Wow, such a hard concept.

[Rejarial Galatan]

defense of ones base, IS a hard concept it seems. cannot tell you how many matches I have lost because I am on YOUR base capping it, while the rest of my team is mid field fighting, while two of YOUR guys slip into MY base and eat it faster than I can take yours, all the while I am screaming into my text bar: DEFEND THE BASE!
