Me playing siege ^

Now to leave in a north westerly direction. The least fun direction available.

But, thats where PGI is located. North Left Canada.

Yeah well my father was crushed against a wall by a mine cart up in the Yukon so it seems pretty not fun to me.

Oh what did they do now?

They brought the Piranha into MWO, and now everyones running streakboats. Die in a single hit if you're a Piranha. No fun allowed what so ever in this game.

That's why you gotta have a wolf pack (or probably more appropriate a school) of Piranhas with some fatties with you for backup. We had loads of fun last night with half our guys being Piranhas and the rest of us as big ol' fat heavies and assaults.

T1 is a shitshow, compared to when I tried a fresh account for T5 experience. The playstyle and retardation is of a complete different level in T1 vs T5. Assuming one can get people to cooperate in pug queue is a foolish endeavor.

Yeah I'm personally in Tier 3 atm, but I'm usually dropping with Larsh and OldBob so more often than not we're in 8-man or larger in mixed tiers.

I don't have that much of a luxury. Majority of people I know that did play it no longer do anymore or rarely ever do so i'm pretty much stuck to pugging. And I'd rather not join some ingame group in either case because they're usually too "militarized" for my liking, gotta be on and do this or that and perform FW stuff on the occasion. I refuse to touch FW

Don't blame you on FW, I don't play it either. Honestly we're all a bunch of goofballs and casual trolls. Like there's a special place in hell for people like us, but we're anything but militaristic try hards. We're all not even in the same unit either. We literally just get together and try to have fun. Just take a look at some of Larsh's videos or come join us on Theme Night Fridays, https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0.....wF0c6BTD3jhTgw

I love it

Redefine your own fun I guess?


That said I've largely given up a long time back for some reason. Not sure why. I think it's cause I hit an end point and didn't find anything else worth grinding.

That and well my luck is so bad....


Also I missed T3. T2 is pretty brutal.

No, T2/1 is just retards who grinded to there. The PSR rating is nothing but a fucking xp bar, not a show of skill. Its not even physically possible to go down a rank. So people who are still shit can still benefit and get to higher tiers with minimal effort.

Yeah the so called "skill tier" isn't really skill per say, it's just how much you grinded cause it's way too easy to get increase in pilot skill. Though that said It's basically a slightly more complicated overall exp bar that puts all those who grinded a long time together and assumes that they all got roughly the same skill after that.

That means that people who aren't godlike but just play a lot of matches to grind out their favorite mechs are punished by being cannon fodder in those T1/2 games all the time


I do wish they put an "skill decay" system where your skill level decays over time if you'd been inactive.



Also someone once did a study between the various tiers and well, T 1/2 tends to be just full of meta-build mechs. the more interesting random nonsense builds tend to mainly show up at low tiers.

Yup. T1 is a shitshow right now with nothing but streak srms. I've died more to streak srms than anything.

And I doubt they'll ever do that kinda thing. T5 just...is no challenge for me either. I went back with an unskilled Jenner F i had from my alt account. Had a kodiak that was hiding behind a building in the water in river city because he didn't want to get shot at after being lrm'd at. He was so scared i was able to just keep shooting him without even moving from where he could see me. Unfortunately All tiers have issues, just the higher tiers have probies and shortbus tards. Which more or less I get all on my team while the enemy team gets the good players constantly. Seems it deems me a good player so I should effectively "balance out" the shit ones.

as long as you do 400+ damage you'll go up in rank. That's literally the amount where even a loss doesn't matter.

Nope, you don't even have to. As long as you get several kill assists and win you'll go up. I did literally under 100 dmg one game where we one once, with a single ERLL Spider, got 12 kill assists, my "PSR rating" went up. You don't have to do dmg. Kill assists is more powerful than anything else. Which promotes bad players who can't kill or do a lot of damage to be rewarded. Even in xp and cash, kill assists give far more than kills themselves.

well happens a lot for me too, which is why I actually have a win rate that's below 1... despite having a KD ratio above 1.

My luck is statistically bad :D



Sometimes makes you wonder if "Skill based matchmaking" was such a good idea afterall eh? If thinks you are good it constantly pits you against good players, meaning it'll eventually stagnate when you end up having a rubbish winrate again cause you get constantly pitted against people far better than you.

ELO, PSR, its the same thing under a different name.

Also Airstrikes are a God damn menace in T1. Its nothing but consumables warfare.

Yeah. Damage dealing consumables are annoying as hell. I do get the idea it is to stop camping and spreadout people but gheez.

Dude, I was instantly killed one match from 100% to dead in one hit from an air strike, another match from 100% to 45% in one hit. They need a God damn nerfhammer blow.

I haven't been instakilled by a consumable before... then again I rarely play lights. But the consumables do hit too hard.

Also they should put some really big warning beyond just a stupid flare for these things if they want to make it so damaging. cause a few times people drop flares just a bit behind me so you don't ever see it coming.

Well tis also their explosion radius is insane as well. Like even if you do get out of the direct line of the chain of bombs from a air strike, you still get hit if you're too slow as well. Also you can see airstrikes coming, the plane and its jettrails in the air.

Lol. Perfect. Should i try to get back into this? Play with you?

Insufficient Dakka

lol saw this in b33fs discord, didn't know you made it XD
pgi breakin muh toys

Wait, it was on his discord? Who posted it? What reactions?

i cant remember the name but a lotta people loved it lol

Screens? I know lots are also probably on voice but visual responses help a lot to know what others thought.

...Dopefish has Returned...

Dopefish never left in the first place.

Touchè~

The fun disappears as fast as your rear armor

And your internals
