It's a legit strategy, not really a problem, learn to counter it (some already have). End of thread.

No, the whole "gl hf" and "gg" is from starcraft.

Ah, as opposed to your team just holing up on the citadel and trying to snipe you mean?

And your friend was wrong. As for not spreading lies, I believe there's a lovely screenshot somewhere of your team calling us all 'Faggots' before disconnecting.


Wow dude, grow some thicker skin.

Also, QQ originally related to an old emoticon for someone crying which is Q.Q which is intended to show tears coming from eyes.
Telling someone to stop QQing is telling them to stop whining or crying.

This is my new favorite topic. I'm learning about the interwebs, watching people complain about poptarting, and of course good old fashioned smack talk amongst clans, freebirth ninnys and mercs.

It's like I'm on the mektek forums during the golden age of MW4!

This is my best guess of it: http://mwo.smurfy-ne...914a66e722b3e00

Based on previous MechWarrior game experience, the armor would actually be balanced more like this:
CTF-3D
Upper body and frontal armor is the priority for a poptart. You're welcome.

I ran into one yesterday for the first time.
I fought back with my ER large lasers (2 of them) and my gauss (1 of) and killed ihm before he had dealt any significant damage to me.
time your shots right, keep them accurate. it's hard for most of the people on these forums to understand, but if you don't suck good things will come to you.

I can't wait until you bragging poptarting teams meet us. That's when the QQing will hit the fan. KaoS is on another level right now. We're always a month / month and a half ahead of every trend. Most teams see this stuff first in matches against us. Whispy has seen us a few times in his 3D. If you want to see the OP way to run them or the OP way to counter them join RHoD.


Please maybe you are ahead of the general curve, but I learnt to poptart in my Jenner before the game even went into open beta...and I can tell you now DV8 was not behind anybody when the cataphract came out in terms of realise "oh look a sniper mech with jumpjets, I wonder if I can fly and shoot at once!"

There are loads of good players and good clans out there right now and posting you mastered an obvious build a month before anybody else thought of it is such a pointless thing to say... To then keep coming back to it... :/

There is always somebody better then you out there. -_- Always.

Just call it how I see it sir. I've got you pegged for just another bad with a loud keyboard.


Oh, oh! My turn!

You're just another player with an exaggerated sense of accomplishment and self worth forged through organized team play in a game that doesnt sufficiently support it.

Difference is, i was attempting to contribute something constructive to this thread while you were thumping your chest like a mad ape declaring in so many words "Come at me bro!". Your strategy has its flaws, just like the rest of them. Neither it, nor you, are relatively close to tactically sound. The combination of your denial of both facts and aggressive spite suggest you're of little worth without a team to compensate for your shortcomings.

In summation: Compared to you, i'm Rambo.

Hi Wispsy! Our Jenners, they must ride together some day... assuming i find a new build to get comfortable with now that JJs are somewhat respectably implemented (Unfortunately their tonnage as well). Mlas or SRMs... hrm.

I use my 6medium pulse laser Jenner more then any other light ATM, although I find 4 smalls 2 srms and jjs is better for killing light mechs, but really I blame my English ping! :(

Wait, 6Mplas for big stuff, but Slas and SRMs for Lights? That doesnt make any sense... you speak in riddles!

Actually i always use at least 1 SRM4, but debating between Mlas for the range which helps against SSRM/SRM boats or Slas + 2nd SRM for better damage... Decisions decisions. Not that it matters at the moment since i cant really try them out in these suboptimal conditions. Having a ping of 250 is one thing, but the constant yoyo'ing back and forth from 120 to 250 is just blah.

I love how people actually think others will be impressed that they are part of a clan that wins regularly. Also hilarious how some people try really hard to impress us all with the awesomeness of their clan and then do something so silly as liking their own posts. Just wow.

When I grow up daddy, I want to be in KaoS.
