ECM need to be removed untill they either nerf if or get proper counter to its as it is now if you don't have ecm you loose if one team have 2 more ecm than you you loose.

Agree with your statement. Also, please learn how to spell 'lose'. It helps your argument make more sense.

To all those that say "Learn to play"

Give me my torso only streaks. I learned to play that well.

I think it has a finer point than SSRM's. Most QQ'ers won't try simple tactics like luring away those under the ECM blanket. Teamwork using TS3 or finding friends to group up with.

But too each is own, I've seen enough of the bigger ECM and SSRM and the like QQ'ers to know when they start their threads all they want is some sympathy. If they'd spend more time in game than they do QQ'ing in here they might actually learn a little something.

ECM is powerful, but it isn't a 'win button'.. You can setup your mech loadout to counter it easily. It's also countered just by having your own ECM. It's not an exclusive item and its relativity cheap. So its simple to get.

At some point maybe splitting it into different devices might be needed.. However, it's way too early to tell how it will affect future gameplay. As the gamemodes seem to just be placeholders until more complexity is added.

It does change the 'meta' of the game though. If you are still playing where you think you can missile spam, you aren't going to be doing as well.

It also makes it even more important to use teamwork. Not only are there fire-fights going on.. There are ECM counter 'battles'..

If i was to change something.. I would make it so all Mechs could use ECM. Yet I would make them larger and or heavier. So it's more of a 'Do I take more firepower or the ECM'.. Maybe even take up a weapon hardpoint to install it..

Dang it! I almost fell for that one.
