Nineteen, please tell whoever makes these decisions at PGI to add a "queue karma" point system that rewards playing underrepresented weight classes by giving queue priority on the popular classes. I want to play my heavies sometimes but the heavy pool is always full. If I'm willing to play lights and assaults 75% of the time, keep track of that and let me cut the line for heavies occasionally.

A personal favorite is any variation of "That's really insightful, you should blog about it."

On the one hand I can understand the rationale for having mech volume scale closely with weight, but on the other it's a sci-fi robot game where the laws of physics have already been utterly disregarded in a million other areas. If they really want to upscale bad mechs I hope they at least do something to help them out in other ways (this will almost definitely not happen ).

That was loving retarded. Literally made an off the cuff remark because I saw pattonesque. Something like "GIRLs are gross, I heard it from a close friend" so it was an obvious comment about the faction not girls the gender. But off goes mister MRA to defend his fellow MAN. Match goes on, I think my team squeezed a narrow win and I was calling targets. The guy squeezes this gem out: "Well a dull humorless man just led us to victory" Match ended with me trying to woo Patton. e: think I may have to switch to GIRL. There some form of a wait to get in there? e2: Better question is, if I quit WoL. Can I get into GIRL like... now? or is there some form of wait.

Ehhh gently caress it, I'll take an invite to GIRL whenever someone has the chance. Thanks in advance. Girl tag will go very well with my paint-uniform I've made for my mechs. White, Pink and Red.

Last night's forest map victory was hilarious. Goons as a single ponderous bulk drunkenly wandered off in to a corner of the map never seen before when someone saw a crescent shaped cliff with a slight overhang. "Everyone put your backs to the wall under the cliff. Nobody off the wall. Every goon is against the wall" and the other team had no idea WTF to do. A few scout lights found us by rounding the corner into the middle of a crescent firing line before they evaporated from a dozen people staring at one target. The rest of their team sat on top of the cliff trying to shoot straight down at us, failing miserably and occasionally falling off the cliff into the feeding frenzy below.

Another hilarious victory on Forest Colony: the entire OpFor went the mountain road. The only reason we didn't win 12-0 was because the last enemy SRM Jenner got a lucky hit on a dude as we were canvasing the map for him. 12-1 is still a pretty good score. Didn't make that much on it though. Tried to flank them but they almost all died by the time we got there.

If anyone has a spare 7 million c-bills lying around (plus another 6 or so to kit it out) you should buy a Black Knight they have low mounts but are basically the kings of the 3-500 meter skirmish range. 3LPL/5ML is a 58-point alpha that takes less than a second to deliver. you have to use an XL but they're pretty XL-safe and have some of the best structure bonuses in the game Black Knight: for all your laser surgery needs

MWO players seem to get really mad when you point out that the game's population hasn't seen any growth since the steam launch, and that the total number of players online at any given time is about a 10th of similar f2p games. The Stockholm Syndrome is very real.

The biggest thing was the realization that the head could be hit from any angle, and always counted against CT. If you faced a team that knew this, you'd die instantly, and it turned into a first person to shoot 'won' test of reflexes.

The big right arm helps with that but it can be an issue (especially against other Black Knights) You'll eat Timber Wolves alive in that 3-400m band though, and you can collect Dire Wolf torsos by the dozen taqueso posted:Does it matter?

Hey come to think of it -- does anyone own Grasshoppers? If the Black Knight is good, I figure the Grasshopper would be too -- less tanky, but better at range and the advantage of JJs

If the Black Knight is good, I figure the Grasshopper would be too -- less tanky, but better at range and the advantage of JJs I do and I mastered a bunch of the different chassis. They're good in principle but basically the geometry is the key issue. They are walking billboards and you'll be forever exposed because nearly nothing functions as cover. Grasshoppers are even easier to shoot than an Awesome. This is bad. The -P variant is the tankiest and you can run two dead sacrificial arms for torso twisting and stick LPLs in your shoulders. No energy heat reduction quirks is the trade off. Take one jump jet to get over obstacles but no more.
