Stop liking your own posts you damn weirdo....

It's not 100% automatic as you have to switch from counter/disrupt.


I always like what I say, thus I hit like. That's not weird at all. Complain to Piranha though if you don't like it, not me.

Lol at your second line. But you're right. You have to actually press a button sometimes. My mistake. It's not automatic at all. A whole lot of effort and skill goes into that button.

Riiigghhhttt!!! Just like firing LRMs and Streaks!

Wow Bluten! You've sold me! There really is no counter to my super ECM Commando!

Maybe that's why my K/D ratio is less than .5?

Or why I continually get taken out by LRMs and Streaks?

Or why I get killed constantly by non-ECM mechs using ballistics and lasers?

Yep, I'm damn near invincible!

Cheers!

Lasers counter those little 25 ton mechs with pretty. If you can't hit those mechs, you need a better computer or you need to move closer to PGI's servers.....or just practice more.

Why bother with aiming, buying a new computer or moving, when all you have to do is:

1. COM-2D (SSRM boat)

2. ECM

3. ????

4. PROFIT!!!

If you think LRMs took no effort or skill to use before... well let's just say that explains a lot. I like how you mention Ballistic and Energy though, which was entirely irrelevant to the discussion.
Btw, you

also

hit

a

whole

bunch

of

needless

times

to

And that's not shameful at all, not like liking ones own posts, right?

What else would you do with yet another ECM thread?

I think everyone on this thread should like their own posts, just to show togetherness. I'll start.

I can't bring myself to like any of dude's posts because he already <3s them so much himself he doesn't need my validation. It's just redundancy to me, like signing your posts when your name is already right there. If you didn't like what you wrote, why write it in the first place?

Best way to cope, dont even bother logging in.

I truly wish I could get a refund on this game, or I was able to sell my account without breaking the ToS

A friend did after he bough founders then realized even though his rig meets the specs for the game, it cant run it.

They told him, very politely mind you, tough ****.

So I really dont expect them to give me a refund when I dont have a technical problem but a problem with their running of things.

It's literally something new EVERY patch. I don't know that I want to be in a game with people that don't have the ability to see this truth. ECM shall pass, just like a whole slew of other issues that people had with the game. Imagine if everyone that had issues on the "Day of LRM's" left the game? An issue that no longer exists. Wake up. If you need more proof that this game is in fact a beta, what more do you need?

It has been a few patches since they introduced it, and with PLENTY of feedback and opportunity to fix it.

And they are focusing on too many payed things now such as banner ads on websites, selling premium time and vanity items for it to really be a valid beta anymore.

Perhaps it's not fixed because it isn't broken. People keep saying that there are only 4 viable builds now, because you MUST have ECM in order to compete. No. YOU must have ECM to compete. I'm doing just fine without it. People say that the only counter is another ECM. That can't be true either, as I fight and kill them just fine without it. Thus, countering them. Nothing is more countered than dead. Stop using loadouts that rely on lock ons. It's as simple as that.

And if you are the mindset that this isn't a beta...then no wonder you think ECM is OP. You have no concept of reality.

My easy counter to ECM is to play a different game.

because a single piece of equipment that is super light should be able to negate a few weapon systems right?

I would really like my little 1.5 ton item that blocks lasers please! Hop to devs!

It isn't fixed yet because they are probably still trolling for data to determine what the best level of nerf is.

No way they would they dump a fix in a week or two after its release.
