Well .. I was thinking ... as the developers are obviously not listening to anyone and are focused on making (more) money instead making this game playable the game is starting to lose it's charms ...at least for me .. and I know I'm not the only one...
just to mention a few:

- PERFORMANCE ... how should you feel with a game that looks like 3-y old and having a sub 20fps on a machine where for example BF3 can have 70-120fps on max settings and 2560x1600?
- performance ... what is with poor people who have 4fps bug?????
- heat shutdown ...and no hud after that
- AC's sometimes fire to wrong direction
- LAGSHIELD ... making a F$%%%^ Jenner one of the most powerful weapon in the game ... Jenner? SERIOUSLY???? Unless you have SSRM's you are defensless ... no skill in the world will help you ... only luck ...
- weapon balance some weapons still useless or overpowered who is using PPC's?

and the list goes on and on ... but this is all discussed on the forum ("oooh-it's-BETA" trolls ... please ... don't get me started .. so lets just keep this to the point...)

With all this still the game can be "enjoyed" if you are hard-core fan (I know other people who tried it ... and just said ... "whadda joke" and left it alone ... shame that those guys did not experience mechwarrior world as it should be .... I am confident that even MW4 is still better than this...) so I still have some "childhood love for this" ... and play it ...

But one thing that really ****** me off are the noob trolls who use the bugs to win like those using .. lets say STREAKCATS of JENNERS .... and zombieplayers - those who just join for the credits ... they dont even play!!!

So I have a simple sollution for at least two out of three: for the sake of honor ... first kill all of the Jenners and Streakcats ... yeas I am talking TEAMKILLING ... **** if everyone would Just do this these things would be extinct.. at least untill they fix the engine ....

So my suggestion to players... lets make a first phase of every game a rabbit hunt to ALL jenners and streakcats out there ... friendly or enemy ... when they are out and cold ... we can then have a normal game and enjoy it ...

[Redshift2k5]

complain the only way to kill Jenners is with streaks.. Then complain streakcats are "using bugs to win"? Logic fail

[DivineEvil]

Streaks are not a bug. It's a weapon.
TeamKilling propaganda.
Tons of complains that are laready mentioned.

Delete the thread. Period.

Yeah, the other three guys allready opened their own topic.

[Aym]

If the only way to kill a Jenner is Luck or Streaks, how will you TK Jenners when you can't lock your Streaks onto them?

[Critical Fumble]

If you can play most of your matches, and don't enjoy piloting giant robots shooting giant guns at other giant robots causing giant explosions, there is no hope for you. Goodbye.

Oh, actually, I'll leave you this:

Its beta.

Get better computers and play in Window'd mode, that will fix performance.

Riiiight, ask the Jenners who thought harassing my Quad LL CTF-3D is a good idea. It takes a little practice but anyone can hit them with Lasers and Gauss aswell not just Streaks.

[FrostPaw]

Yes, I always find calling the makers of the game "ignorant" a proven method of getting their attention and respect. It's sure to work here, now that they know how ignorant they are they will jump right on your feedback and ensure it happens extra quick, just for you tiger!

I can hit fast mechs all day. Maybe you lack the skill.

[Mercules]

1. Teamkill - No... just NO!

2. Devs Listening skills - Check out the hasty retract on Jenners getting a variant with ECM. That is proof positive they have someone at least peeking in the forums and they actually consider some of what is said.

3. I had the problems you had. I bought a REAL computer. Problems went away. Hmmmmmmm... Must be ALL the software's fault. I'm not saying it is blameless, but you can't put it all on the software. In honesty I think the engine or coding PGI has done is not optimized for low end machines. If you have a decent machine but super high ping(yeah over 120 is high) then... well... till they get the money to put in regional servers.... I can't blame them for not spending millions to set that up.

Non-constructive troll thread. Please take your impatience and unreasonable expectations elsewhere. Don't feed the trolls, let the thread drop or get locked. We've seen enough of this lately. Lets not tolerate it.

• Location South Carolina

Could it be that your "skill" with hitting fast targets have something to do with your location?
This game kinda takes you back to old school gaming. It reminds me of Tribes where I had to
lead the targets based on ping. Now I have lots of found memories about Tribes but the lead
on targets was not one of them. Hitscan weapons should hit where you aim and not be moved
around, looking for some magic hitbox that is lagged all over the place because of ********
stinky netcode.

Why do you try to defend the horrid netcode of this game? That is just stupid.

because I've played past MW games where you have to aim 8 mechs+ out to hit them. this is easy for me.

[EyeOne]

I shot a Jenner in the face with an AC10 the other day and it died. So....

I'm not denying the existence of the lag shield but let's not get carried away about how bad it is.

Yes but you are in the US. It is annoying for people in the EU and I guess ******** **** for anyone playing from
Australia and those parts of the world. Anyone outside the US sure have the right to complain. Try firing up
some high demand torrents while you play and then come back and report about the player experience
and joy of hitting full speed Jenners.

This is not the 90's. It is weak that we have to deal with the 90's gaming problems today in a modern game.

I actually agree with that. What is really bad is that it feels so random. Though that may be my lack
of "skill"

Not defending the netcode 'cos it is still horrible, but i live in the EU and i can lagshoot them perfectly well.
If i'd move to the Saturn then i would have some problems tho, that's for sure.

This is a problem for people in EU and Australia for just about every online game, maybe you guys need a new hobby?

Yep it's not the 90's. I'm not having to lead mechs 8+ in this game. The only time I have to lead a mech is when it's fast and it's ping is 250+. The 90's would be having to keep the mech in your field of vision plus keep 8 mech lengths in front of it in your field of vision.
