1. So your 2 real life friends represent the hundreds of thousands of people that play this. Okay. Guess you didn't take math in school
2. Huh?
3. I don't care if you edit or Redit, I'm not the edit patrol and I think fast and reply fast. Don't care about you, or your edits.
4. Insults because that's all you have left. You know I'm right. Good game.

So much drama. Life is hard these days for an 8 man team of elite mechwarriors. To be unjustly punished and victimized in this way...

...anyone feel a Godwin's Law coming on?

It's okay to not like PUGers.

You wouldn't want me on your team anyways, I run joke builds. Sire, I drop with my team, too, but more than 2/3 of my drops are PUGs and I am NOT a good teammate whatsoever. I do stupid **** like lighting up targets with the "R" button, killing base cappers, and coordinating effective kill zones with people I've never met before in my life. In fact, most of the peole I have played with over text chat have been absolutely terrible to play with.

I have no idea why I keep playing this; it's like the game is fun to play or something.

I'll cut it off at the pass - Nazis.

I really love how people continual act like their first born has been killed when really nothing has changed.

Seriously? I'd hate to have you on my team. I'd have to test my lasers for 3 mintues at the spawn or something.

And thats the point: nothing really changed.

Btw.: I don't know what you all are talking about, he asked what other games you will play till phase 2. Pretty harsh words and lots of sarcasm for that. You like 4 man groups with PUG's? Fine with me, he doesn't, just like me, so what with all the hate here ? 0o

Ultrabeast, I hate you with every fibre of my being, but on this point I agree with you.

I held out for the last fortnight because I thought I was going to be able to play an 8-man team today.

'Pure pug matches in a trial mech' are more fun than '4-man team + 4 random liabilities' as far as I'm concerned.

I am not sure if I will play anything else, mostprobably I will take a break from the game until they fixed that mess...I will definately not drop with them PuGs under no circumstances.

99.9% play bad and they should feel bad.

No hate here more like incredulity. As an analogy think of when you were a kid. If you had a group of 8 and there were only 4 swings did you not play on the swings? No you took turns and helped push! People are quite literally saying right now that they would not use the swings which is just ridiculous.

I can also anticipate the response of "well they promised!" Well I hate to say it but it happens. Sometimes things don't work out. They're still working on it and they've done a great job thus far so why act like children who have had their candy taken away? You've not actually lost anything but a mystical something you didn't already have so you have nothing to complain about.

BTW: That's a metaphorical "you" as in the bulk of players and not a literal you.

They are too busy implementing 3rd person / world of mech changes to re-implement 8v8.

They're not implementing it though - they're considering. Please read what PGI actually says and don't just listen to the random throngs.

Ultrabeast has been saying he'd leave since they first announced the temporary change to 4 mans and it's been quite awhile since that yet he is still here. He's all bark and no bite.

I think it depends on the way they say it. If there's a rational, well thought out reason that they're trying to convey, then there's no problem. If it's all "I hate you for what you're done/not done. Back later", then its easy to instantly take a harsh stance.

In the end, the the message is the same: "Things in their current state are upsetting me and I want you to know about it."

Yeah why do you think I'm on the forums instead of playing genius? I'm just trying to get this game fixed before everyone else leaves.
