Then why don't more people use it? I'm referring to the pug community.


I'm confused, you want the PUG community.......to stop being the PUG community?

Are you talking about the "affiliation" setting? As in "lone wolf" vs. a house faction? You can set that in your forum settings here. I have an "affiliation" with Kurita, although I've never dropping in a game as anything other than a PUG.


Nah i was talking about him not dropping solo at all :)

The power of teamwork or the power of dual-ecm ravens with streaks? Everyone is right that lights are easier to hit now. Especially when you can use streaks and they cant use any of thiers.

I was doing pug drops with a friend today, and we both had ECM Ravens. We were playing in Forest Colony so we went to the water. The other team went shoreline, so we went to their base and started capping. Their scouts came back and we made short work of them. We then went back towards the boat, killing two more mechs along the way. Heavy, assault. It didn't matter. They wilted before us.. When the match was over, we both had over 600 damage and all of the kills. This is the power of teamwork. You should try it sometime. :)


OMG !!! It's fantastic, you should write some guides to share your priceless experience!



seriously ! what's the point ?

We could have done the same in any mechs. When you have two people who know how to work together, the results are inevitable. Especially against a pug team.


...like 2 Atlas-RS models sniping back-to-back with 4 ERPPC each. Cole141 and I had SO much fun yesterday popping heads off... point stands. 2 men, 3, 4, who cares? Teamwork is OP. B)

Wait, you don't mean to suggest that's a feature, not a bug? :P

Clearly it has nothing to do with
  • ECM being amazing
  • Lagshields making fast lights impossible to hit without lock-on weapons
  • See #1
Bravo.



If you can't hit lights without lock-on weapons then you need a lot of practice aiming.

Mmmm 2 ECM Ravens, more than likely with streaks, taking out people one at a time? Where's the skill in that?

I run a spider 5V with 2 MPLs and my buddy runs a Jenner D with SRMs and MLs and we can tear up a couple lights at a time no problem. Teamwork works, but skill plays a part in it as well. Come back and brag when you do this without streaks or ECM.

I'm sorry, but who died and made you king of determining what weapons and mechs in the game required more skill than others? B)

This. Also try to hit them when they are doing something at a slight distance. No sense giving a light Pilot all the advantage close range provides.

Quite a few light pilots will stand still at some point. Dare I say every one of them will, even if it's because they collided with something? Take the shot without hesitating.

Both running 3L's sure. Unless their love of the 3L is what brought these 2 star crossed lovers togeather.

So you have never seen two pug 3L's in a match? I see them all the time. Now that they can actually be hit and aren't warping all over the map, the 3L's really aren't that big a deal anymore.

Teamwork is overpower ;). When I played alone, I lost 90% of the time. When I have just one friend to play with, I win 80% of the time, maybe less:)

Is that what really happened? I was in my DC with 2 ravens circling me. Both were put down. It could have been you and your bud. It was a good match for me. I ended up 7k/1a. It was a big surprise.

One time at bandcamp I killed all 8 enemy mechs by myself with only tag on my mech.
