because of all the puggies on my teams that go down faster than Monica Lewinski..

This usually leaves me hopelessly out-manned and waaaay outgunned in my cicada. now I enjoy a challenge but trying to survive a 6+ vs 1 constantly gets old.. more often than not it's 8 against 1.

not to mention that losing matches like this yeilds horrible income on the cbills.. This is mostly due to losing out on all sorts of damage, component destruction, assists, and kill bonuses. after all it's kinda hard to get these when your the last man standing and ur about to be gang ***** if u dont keep running from corner to corner..

If ur gonna go pugging it's gotta be CONQUEST or broke.. litterally.. because at least u get a bit of a resource bonus to offset the **** butthurting u'll be recieving..

The grind is already kinda rough if ur not running founders, premium, a hero mech, or ur stuck trying to grind a mech class to elite..

But throw in the suckitude of teams that I have been getting tossed into and things are just ******** if i'm on an assault map

If i'm stuck grinding losses than assualt is for the birds.. The matching is horrible atm not to mention it's just a ppc wonderalnd out there. heck conquest really just turns into an assault style brawl anyway.. at least conquest give a lil better pay for the loss.

and it is a little easier to survive 8 vs 1 on conquest anyway cause the resouce cap can be reached faster than it would be waiting for 11-12 minutes to tick off the match clock.. yep my noobsauce teams are pretty much all dead in the first 2-3 minutes anyway..

This thread sounded like it wanted to be send to the far country. So I heard the wish and fullfilled it.

I mainly play an Atlas and i have the opposite problem.
Yesterday I lost a lot of games by being outcapped in conquest. While we killed most of the team (maybe 3 enemy mechs left), their lights capped all the cap points.

When we had 8 alive and they 3, 7 of our mechs chased a hunchback away from cap points and 2 spiders just capping every point... we were 200:400 down. Only I in my frakking atlas try to go cap a point. We of course lost with most of our team in the tunnel (map was river colony).
