There are so many really really bad players out there.
I just saw a one armed Catapult defeat 2 Atlai.
BTW there were no SSRM involved.

[herosson]

All I ask is straight up one on one fight to the death, that's it lest have fun people. You all know I'm right.

That all said, I stayed -postdeath- and watched the two remaining teammembers (an Atlas and a Phract) defend position against a 5man wave (pult, ravn, stalker, and two biggies). Everyone was damaged and they didn't all come at once (so it's a little moot), but those two made me an extra 30,000+ salvage that I wouldn't otherwise had. I'm pretty sure they could've wiped the floor via an honor duel, so I can understand people avoiding..but they didn't ask for one.

I'd love to see them requested more often, it'd be cool

That is awesome!!!!!! Whats more awesome you ask??? That it was me and High_1 who did that!! what a great match thanks for the praise, haha glad someone remembers!

My sole purpose when I take the field is to destroy your mech as quickly as possible.
Deal with it.

If you don't want to fight alone, then do a better job of supporting your team so that they aren't all dead.

[Cyrionthewise]

I love it when all my team mates are dead and I run and hide and some "nice person" tells them where you are hiding just because they are dead. I love it most when I have the most kills on my team.....I think that they should disable the "all chat" function when you are dead.

[Ryolacap]

Well, you should have fallen on your sword for loosing so badly. .... where's the honor


Having said that, would be cool for a big scarred up mech with one eye and a claw for a hand to come out and say "he's mine"

[Zero Neutral]

Or the OP could accept defeat honorably...

OP asks for honour and then tells every one to grow a pair... dat honour.

[Dirkdaring]

I wish we could do 1 on 1, they are some of the most fun fights I've had.

Honor is not cheating and not using bug exploits to ones advantage.

If you wish to fight on even ground, make sure your team doesn't die. Honor 1v1 duels is not constructive to competitive play. This game is based on teamwork and teamwork should win, not who got a good shot off in some silly honor duel.

If I kill you with 2-3 others, I outplayed you, you should have brought more friends.

When community warefare comes out, you can just forget it entirely. Its one thing to engage in a duel now where it doesn't count. But when it comes down to territory, you're going to see an ugly side you haven't seen yet. That is where I am going to be stripping down mechs to ensure a repair bill that grants a loss of cbills instead of a gain. My goal will be that if I can stop you in the mechlab, I can stop you from defending worlds. Barring that, I will see about such overwhelming defeats that one will simply ragequit, again one less defender.

Why would I do this? Because you all had the audacity to play on an opposing faction and are being punished for your hubris.

Honor is not gained by placing yourself in an equal postion as an enemy who is almost destroyed. Warfare is not sport, and a dead enemy is one less dead friend.

The enemy began at an equal position. They lost more assets than their opponent. Now they should be given a second chance?

Foolishness.

I do not care about your fun in the first place.

I care about winning as fast and as reliable as possible.

[PeekaBoo I C Ju]

Honor in a video game is overrated and often leads to lack of fun

[Viper69]

hahahahaha "I bet you wont say that to my face in real life" Its been years since I seen someone say that, thanks for the laugh OP.

[Bigamo]

Honor is not use broken ECM.

[SuomiWarder]

I can't wait for all the wanna-be Clanners to see how they deal with the whole Zell concept.

My bet is that they ignore it completely.

Serious, for true? That's awesome! I'm honestly feeling pretty burned out on MWO for the foreseeable future and haven't been playing near as much, but fun scenes like that pull me out of the "grind" for a small bit. Once in a while you get lucky staying post-mortem and get a sweet nailbiter. I Remember one stacked-deck slugfest where the rest of the clan were threatening to disown their survivor if he lost to a zombie-cent, but I'll shaddup now as I have nothing to really add toward OP.

Its actually a good idea, I'd duel came the chance...

About the responses in the thread though... seems like you guys are too attached to the pack mentality, a real warrior will accept a challenge, OP was right about the balls and growing part.

What a shame, I expected more from the guys here...
