Game looks better plays a bit better but still one sided matches. Still no rewards. Still nothing to play for. I will say however its nice to smear scouts again and not a Raven in sight... what happened to all you "skilled Raven pilots" that claimed that the lag shield was bs??? LoL thats right eat AC20. Still... game is a long way away from what it needs to be.

[Daiichidoku]

then keep going away every 2 months or so and then....no, wait, make it 20 months, if you cant simply enjoy mech-on-mech violence of its own merit, then you will always have a tear source in the game, save yourself the bother

Still no rewards? Still nothing to play for? I bet you wish we had to mine 5000 iron ore rocks and kill 50 rats for a rusty sword.

I play in one of those cheatermech Com 2-D's. ~shrug~ haven't noticed a difference when I'm out in my light.

Edited to say: not that lagshield was bs, it just didn't happen to me so much, and I'll thank you to kindly drop the insinuation that a netcode patch has suddenly robbed me of any skill I may possess.

As a raven pilot, I'll go ahead and say I spend most of my time feeding other 'mechs AC/20 rounds.

But this is beside the point.
If you aren't enjoying the game, stop playing it. Though, your grievances seem they will be addressed soon. I'd say giving it another few months would be good, unless you want to run around in your 'mech, shootin' other mechs and standing on squares with the rest of us. I know that's what I plan on doing, and I'll love most minutes of it.

Let's wait until full matchmaking system is in place, may fix the one-sided problem.

[Redshift2k5]

Phase 3 matchmaking goes in in a few weeks. They are already TRACKING your elo, but it won't affect matchmaking until the 19th.

Achievements are coming soon.

Community Warfare is a farther away but will come with important incentives to play.

You must have gotten lucky because every match last night from 7pm to 12am EST had 1 to 3 Raven-3Ls in it except for maybe 1 match when I was the only light (Jenner-D) and the other team had a spider.

[Sabazial]

I still run in my raven regularly, it's just as much fun as it's always been. But then again i never used to stand in the middle of a pack of enemy mechs thinking i was invulnerable, i've always been a big fan of hit and run type tactics which is how lights in my opinion should be.

I also run SRM6 rather than streaks.

This game won't exist in 20 months if they don't decide to actually fix anything.

That's never going to go away completely, single players who think this game is going to cower before them never care to realize that a team isn't going to lay before them like a chick wearing sushi.

post like these always makes me laugh

read one similiar yesterday "PGI should just give up"

and always the person who post this kind of mean statements to the developers always have thousands of forums posts ;D Really if you gonna spend that kind of energy on a game and still only say negative stuff it says pretty much how boring of a life you must have.

matchmaking will help a bunch but i dont think steamrolls will stop.. i think bigger maps with dropship mode will help more than matchmaking.

Problem now is 8v8 and its enough that 1-2 mechs on your team is out of position and gets decimated in seconds, then its 6vs8 and odds are its soon to be 5vs8 because one team has more firepower.. if you could switch to a new mech from the dropship it would help the coinflip of who scores the first kill.

[Hysteria]

I think just as many people use light mechs now because they are still just as useful. The difference being that you actually have to be good to pilot one now because people can hit you reliably. I can't wait for collisions to come back because then we will truly see who the amazing light pilots are.

So why waste your pent up Gullom frustration here in these forums instead of finding something you enjoy? Oh I forgot, Gullom only plays with his ring....

we bought the TDK... which is a fun mech to run btw...

really having 40,000xp on top of masters on the 3L just means too much time spent in that damn thing... though my other ravens are just fully elited out... pending masters...
