Who in their right mind would pug? There's no reason to ever play alone, tactically or otherwise.

I don't get why you are taking offense to his post, because what he said happens in every team based competitive game. A lot of players want easy wins and they will use any justification to stomp other teams. Whether it's purposefully sinking your ranking to match vs noobs, or abusing the matchmaking to match versus random pugs.

There are plenty of people who will embrace the new 8v8 premade games. Yourself and OP are probably among them. But don't kid yourself that every premade is desperate to fight against the very best 24/7. Pug Stomping is a highly valued form of entertainment for a lot of people. For many of these guys who aren't as good as they think, there is going to be a big blow to their ego when legitimately good teams start rolling them consistently. These players will go back to PuG games using any convenient excuse they can find. (weight class freedom is "imbalanced", or everyone picks mechs X,Y,Z and use Imbalanced weapons, so I'm going back to pug stomping where it's "fair".)

Nobody ever listens.

Because they have no friends. Or else they're just "testing the engine."

I drop solo a lot

[Ter Ushaka]

That's a bit personal, don't you think?

[Mike Forst]

I don't know

[Ter Ushaka]

I suppose you could drop it like it's hot, but I hear that's old and busted.

[Mike Forst]

Well I just meant that I play mechs without being grouped sometimes

When you post in the Far Country it seems like the update to post counter on the left misjump on the way back. No one knows exactly where it is that they go.

I think those are fine

It's just the Law of Postcounts that doens't apply

e: Oh wait you said normal rules. That part is probably true

Far country. A magical place where the goons are held in check by the only person alive who can outpost me.
