The Devil Dogs are competing in the Run Hot or Die tournament and here are 3 VODs from our matches of our 5. I CTD in the 4th and wasn't in the 5th. I was proud of the Devil Dogs we are a young team and we are showing improvement especially against teams of this caliber. You can seen in these just how good some of the 8-man teams are:

Nice - looking forward to watching these later, thanks for posting.

This is what it's all about for me, I get angry when I see people talking about C-Bill farming as if gathering fake money is an objective, or talking about "end-games" - f**k your C-Bills, bu**er your modules, all that stuff is merely a means to an end.
That end is to win the match you're in, and to win the next one, and the next one after that.
Go on to win the league, and the playoffs afterwards, and become the best team there is.

When you've done all that, keep that top-spot for as long as there are opponents willing to face you.
That's the only endgame that counts.


Best of luck with the team Staple.
Keep arranging scrims against other established teams, and best of luck in RHoD.
Right now it's the best outlet for the real teams in this game and the more support it garners the better for everyone, even those who aren't directly involved.

Good games, Devil Dogs. It was a pleasure meeting you on the field. Thank you for participating in RHoD and helping to promote it!

Here is Drop 1 from our perspective:

[Broceratops]

I was only part of 1 drop but I had fun and hopefully you guys did too. I'm not sure how much longer we can even do league stuff because we likely won't be able to sync drop 8's once phase 3 comes out, but best of luck however long it goes


edit: that poor commando at 5:05 lol

Love watching these videos and I truly hope that once MM is in properly things like this will manifest themselves with more participants and in a more "official" manner.

That's what about (guesstimated) 95% of the players are doing because there isn't anything else to do from within the game..

That's the endgame.

That's the endgame which is not available in the game (yet). I think I said it already somewhere else - I respect everyone trying to get together a league and I'm sure with the rate of sync drops not buffing out it must be tricky. Running an organized tournament on a game that basically at the moment has 0 support for such things is tough and I hope such efforts will be appreciated and supported in the future of MWO.

What team in NBT? We have a few NBT vets as well. :3

[Zyllos]

Aye, great games.

Look forward for more matches.

[Fastidious]

Nice. I hope we get in client demo recording ala Quake soon so we don't have to rely on videos.

[Toe Cutter]

Looks great guys, always glad to have a Devil Dog in group when I drop.

At least there would be some reason to use BAP again ;o)

Not really any need for client recording there are a lot of options out there including free ones. What we need is a means to make matches (challenge system, lobby type matching system etc), then put and a replay system.
