Anyone that has a C1 this is a good video showing it off as a money maker. I took a load of damage but the repair bill was only 52k My full spec can be seen on the C1 money making video that can be found in my sig.

Anyway here is the battle of Frozen City.

nice vid.. I hate the Light ECM Lag shield ***** as well :0)

[Shredhead]

I hate those little buggers too, but he is an aweful bad shot and can't aim! The inability to kill a freaking legged Raven is hilarious! You should have just aimed for that other leg instead of his still armored CT. Instead you get a video full of "whinecrythisgameisterribruhboohoo" mixed with immature swearing and bad piloting...

Actually, this isn't immature swearing. This is swearing as an art form. It takes a lot of dedication, native skill and practice. I was laughing out loud through Mack's video because he is just so good at it. I know I couldn't do anything like it myself. The only person I know who swears as well as this is Bradley Wiggins who once used the word **** in a way so perfectly pitched that it should have won the Nobel prize for literature.

Mind you, the MWO sweary-filter still lets "******" through (EDIT - no it doesn't, how about ******, or bollocks? )

always enjoy your videos and commentaries

I would seriously enjoy that kind of radio style chatter that is featured in the beginning of the match. Reminds me a lot of the ACRE mod for ARMA2. If they could do that with the C3 client ... that would be a big plus in my books.

Anyway funny video Mack, made me laugh. Had the Raven TAG-ed you properly - the LRMs would have ripped you apart before you went back behind the dropship.

[Lanessar]

Very cool. I am a Jenner pilot, and haven't played much in the Jenner because I agree with your assessment.

[Kiyoshi Amaya]

Brilliant vid, mate! Totally agree that lights shouldn't have that much armour. That was frellin' ridiculous.

Keep up the good work, mate

[Sturmbringer]

did you guys read the very first 3 battle mech books ? there was this scottish mech pilot from the grey death legion who ALWAYS swore via comm and loudspeakers too I think hehe

[Green Mamba]

Haha,very funny video and those Lights are hard to kill,I wonder sometimes if they are 35 tons of just armor

[Nonsense]

I see you've upgraded your 65 ton mech with 12 tons of weapons to 13.5 + 1 ton ammo. Congrats on being slightly less terrible than your last video!

Now, next match, when you're fighting light mechs again, try aiming ahead of them a little to account for lag in this online gaming environment! When I say aim ahead of them, I do mean ahead of them in the direction they're moving, not at their legs and at the ground like the current aiming strategy you seem to be using. Then, you'll feel a lot less like lights are OP because you'll actually be doing damage to them instead of firing and cursing!

Also, piloting a mech with arms would help you hit lights mechs even more. But, y'know, feel free to cling to your garbage catapult builds and complain endlessly about OP lights, ECM, and the lack of LRMs (despite being hit by them and seeing them fired in your videos).

The end was truly embarrassing. You missed 999 easy shots and you couldn't kill a legged raven with 0 armor on the other leg. HAHAHHAHAHAH. You just got all flustered and spammed fire at his armored areas instead of calmly ending his sorry life with one blast.

Honestly, I'd love to be more constructive and do more helping than poking fun, but your endless complaining and inflammatory posts has only made it clear that you're convinced you're amazing at this game and it's the game and not you that's the problem. If you'd only open yourself to the idea that you have some things to learn before you can get better, you might stand a chance.

Yep...this game sure is broken... *INTERNET SARCASM*

I will say this: your videos do have nice production value and I am highly entertained by watching them.

I bet Christmas is great fun in your house.

[J4ckInthebox]

i agree with nonsense (lol), you don't lead your shots enough in order to compensate the lagshield. it's not perfect but it's the best we got.

decieve you, your eyes will.
the red crosshair, you must trust.

Great Vid! Thoroughly entertaining.

The Light Mechs are defiantly overpowered right now, but I don't think they need to be tweaked that much. I just think knock-down needs to be put back in soon. It won't affect the good players as much, but it will help level the playing field back to where it should be.

[Ngamok]

I like my C1 variant as well. Except on mine to help with the lights, I use 2xSSRM2s and use 2 MPLs to help hit them faster. Other 2 are LLs in the torsos. Also has extra FF armor and 17 DHS. But, like Nonsense said, on lights, I aim a little in front and nail them all the time.

[Sen]

Really enjoyed the video! As a light pilot who doesn't hide behind lagshield [hey, if you have outrageous ping you can't blame ME for it] I have to say that once you're dropped in two or three hits a couple of times, that whole O/P argument goes straight out the window. . but hey. . . not everyone can be a rockstar ^^

Thats pretty much how mine used to be setup but I stripped it all down so that repair costs were minimal, I just use mine to farm credits now.
