How was the roster selected anyway? I remember being involved in making the 2014 /xcg/ team and we just posted suggestions in the thread?

Congrats to Granzon for managing a kickass performance in the qualifiers.

Now don't fuck it up.

Mobile Suit Gundam 00

the roster was not my doing one day I came home thinking about players and there it was a full made roster so i just decided to not look a gift horse in the mouth and use it
I honestly think its fine at least for the strikers and the main goalie i do agree it could of been better but that will be next time no going back now i just plan to keep trying to have good games and not choke hardcore

>OP pic isn't MWO related
End times.

HEAVY GEAR FAGS
GET
OUT
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

ill try but next week might be tough depending on how the draw goes

Gay,

youtube.com/watch?v=mOmuQnKjJc4

The last OP had tanks and planes and infantry :^)

So, where can we see these ggclose games? Youtube? All I can find are actual league play games, not qualifiers. Just curious.

Go look at the streamer offline videos there their

...

Should I sell my Exe's once I fill up the Basic and just keep one?

If haven't already watched the original 0079 mobile suit gundam, you should along with the stuff that comes after like 08th MS Team, 0080 war in the pocket, 0083 stardust memory, zeta and double zeta gundam, and so on

Macross is also bretty good if you haven't watched that series either. Though if you've already caught up on both I can still think of something stompy that you could watch

also
brings up a good point. Why didn't we name our players after robot memes?

yes

>team runs in 1by1 and dies
Every game

Stop it

STOP IT

MAKE IT FUCKING STOP

Use them as body shield, retreat when they're about to die.

You can't win the game but you can always try to make the best out of anything.

>tfw I didn't enjoy 08th OR War in the Pocket
Thinking of just watching Zeta at this point desu, I won't miss out on much will I?

How's this?

>didn't enjoy War in the Pocket

Sorry, looks like you have a case of the shit tastes, nothing to do but kill yourself.

>3 ER PPC
I'm not mad, just disappointed in you.

...

that's hot

>Seeing some "death star" shit on youtube
>Its just a mech that can fire two times and then dies form overheating
Oh come on.

>being a filthy zeek sympathizer
Outta my general.

The idea is that it kills two enemy mechs, one with each shot, and has therefore managed an effective trade.
j/k it's just meant to REALLY piss off the fucker that gets oneshot without any chance to react.

if your entire team consists of mechs that can instantly kill any other mech without dying, then you have automatically won :^)

>Zeek Sympathizer

Federation for life, 0080 isn't pro either side, just like almost all Gundam both sides are painted as having good and bad aspects

Then again the big assholes in 0080 are Zeons threatening to nuke a neutral colony so where do you even get off saying this

But he ruins Sean Langs day twice. That besides everything else is worth it.

Yeah but your average pubstar is going to fire his ER PPCs at 700M~, miss completely, and shut down for the rest of the match until someone finds and kills him.
Maybe 30% of them will fire them at close enough ranges they can actually aim them, and of those maybe 50% will actually hit their target instead of embarassing themselves.

you technically don't have to but
>I didn't enjoy 08th OR War in the Pocket
u fucking wot m8

Because of the Alex and Fed presence there, the expanded shit is great though. We've got food riots, federation GM's and guntanks mowing down spacenoids and a corrupt as fuck government. Finally an explanation on the reason why Zeon would consider dropping colonies or why any community would find it a natural reaction.

>some buttfuck nowhere jungle monkey squad of retards gets Gundams that are somehow not even half as good as Amuro's Gundam was (and this is BEFORE Amuro even knew how to properly pilot his Gundam)
no
>some dumb kid literally spies for the fucking zeeks who then decide they're going to nuke the colon cause why not
no

The original Gundam was satisfying but can you guess what I didn't like about it?

>tfw playing laser vomit metashit
Why is this allowed
Why aren't lorebuilds allowed to be good but this is
Why aren't erppcs allowed to be good but this is

> Nasheed.avi
>Imfuckingplying
pleb pls

I only use the highest quality lossless FLACs
t. audio pro with my Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pros
(250 ohm), FiiO E10K DAC/AMP, Monster brand diamond coated fiber optic cables and Creative Sound Blaster ExtremeGTX-RS sound card (extra snakeoil)

Also never let a "girl" like Haruko decide anything. This team roster is shit and full of stale memes.

youtube.com/watch?v=IK6759mwVX0

I actually starting to like PPCs more, just need to aim better with them.

circumflex accent

>That dude being penetrate by 9 PPCs at once
D-did he get raped?

>person being forcefully penetrated by 9 dicks
>were they raped?
Fucking dumb anime posters, I swear

So basically a minute and a half before you get your guns back.

I have that in webm format actually, pretty cash.

Too bad we can't reenact the good times like that Forest Colony cave rush.

Was it the fact you simply don't like gundam?

I saw this on the field and thought of Vass and his Mega Buster obsession.

ttp://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=406&l=da0286407804dfd4bd22704306c48e8a9c257a7f

no, it was the retarded fucking trio of buttmunching anal-chewing children that spent 90% of the time shoehorning themselves into the scene and then finally got shoehorned into fucking relevance at the end as if they weren't awful enough
fuck little kids

You're a mature man who only likes mature stories featuring gritty soldiers doing grunt things?

AKA the cancer of the Gundam fandom

>can't even post a simple link correctly
Shaking my damn head

I'm sure he tried his hardest.
mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=406&l=2b78f46f51331471f191bf77b20478ea69e75cba

Ignoring how garbage it is, why do 3 erppc even have ghost heat?

>invocation.
>bindings.
>constraints.

Is PGI trying to manifest itself through the tournament client?

Muh poptarts

lol and it happens in every fucking gundam, amuro himself was barely a young man.

Meanwhile in Zeta Kamille is growing his pubes, smoking in the boys room and being the bad boy at his local highschool.

but did you try your hardest?

mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=406&l=78962442af3a4842270f682157f81dc0ed7ae616

Once upon a time PPCs were the terror of this game.

Then PGI decided poptarts were scary, so now we have split second duration hitscan weapon boating that deals far more damage without any need to aim coupled with jumpjets that lift you a whole 10 feet off the ground.

I didn't mind Iron Blooded Orphans for all the quality it had, so I'd say no.

This is the same company who thinks the game will be balanced after they simulaneously nerf clan mechs in ten different ways and give massive stat buffs to IS mechs.
This is the same company who thinks their game's quality will increase by not removing maps like river city and polar highlands.

The answer is "hurr durr fuck you that's why"

Is Living legends fun with a mouse and keyboard or do I need a joystick? I have a stick but no throttle

It's best and most fun when you use this stick *unzips*

>River City

There is nothing wrong with the current River City. What? Are you fucking high? Of all the maps you think should be removed, River City?

It's the best remade map and easily above average in general.

It's made for KBM, though VTOLs and Aerospace Fighters are probably easier with a stick but those are for faggots anyways.

River Shitty is fucking horrible because you can't see anything and there's a giant death zone in the middle of the map. If the enemies can see your little red box and you can't see theirs, you can't do anything because you can't see anything without vision modes and vision modes can't see far enough so you can shoot at the other side without sensor locks.

It wasn't even worth a complete link. Guy fired three times with override up, exploded, ended the game with under 100 damage.

And then spent most of the game talking about how his build was good, which is how I know most of the stats. Also, tie game.

>There is nothing wrong with the current River City. What? Are you fucking high?
Holy fucking shit is River City bad. Kill yourself.

I don't have any problems with seeing people on River City. The filters aren't that bad on it. Nowhere near as bad as Forest Colony for instance.

The middle of the map is hardly a deathzone, there's flanking routes all around it and tons of points to fire into it from both sides.

Literally git gud. So many worse maps you can name. Forest Colony for instance, which is actually truly probably worse than even Terra Therma which is one incredible achievement.

They probably made a pact with the dark powers just to get a semi-functional tournament client.

You know, the soul of a whale for giving everyone millions of GXP, C-bills, etc. even though it's a tournament client/server and doesn't really matter.

River City has multiple engagement areas and allows for all types of builds. There's various pieces of cover and it has a nice flow to it. How the hell don't you like it?

The middle is no more a deathzone than most maps, it's just low ground, you're meant to either move through it or prevent the enemy team from moving through. That's why there are vantage points all over the place, and why there's cover to allow you to move through it, and why there's a covered route to get to the other side of the city as well. It's a well balanced map, though domination is very imbalanced and sucks dick on it, but domination is shitty on a lot of maps anyways.

>River City and Polar Highlands
>not Terra Therma, Forest Colony, and Viridian Bog

Though Viridian really isn't as bad as either of the other two, but it is incredibly frustrating and the spawn imbalance is retarded.

For mumble.

River City, Terra Therma and Forest Colony are the worst maps in the game, in that order.

Aynone who thinks otherwise is T3 or worse.

Viridian Bog gets an honorary mention for having the most broken geometry.

What are your thoughts on Clan Large Lasers on the Ebin?

>hating on River City

I bet you shitters dislike Canyon Network and Tourmaline too

a 3 C-LPL build on an ebin should be enough to take you to tier 2 at least

But but I play mostly FP

HBR is better for 4ERLL

EBJ is much better suited for LPLs

>we will never have a grand summoner in MWO

Just what if they gave the summoner in game Endo steel? Would that be able to fix it?

Its just earlier today, my Left torso on my Ebins got eaten up at 1800 range by an IS mech in FP.

They won't

The Summoner makes a pretty solid brawler and an okay poptart right now, and you'll have to live with that.

Better quirking could fix all its problems, same with most of the other Clan shitmechs, but PGI doesn't understand the game much less how to quirk things.

Canyon and Tourmaline are some of the better maps in the game.

It's the fucking eye cancer like River City, foggy Frozen City and Forest, and just plain everywhere cancer like Polar, Alpine and Grim that are absolute shit.

>Grim Plexus
>in any way bad

You've truly lost all credibility

Just want to stomp around and grind some c-bills.

Instead, all that's on display is this crybaby bullshit over incredibly meaningless and overrated cartoon shows.

Fuck this retarded shitshow. I'm joining MercStars.

...

Only brawling build I found viable was the 5 SRM 6 or Streak 6 for easy hitting.

>tie ever

holy shit kys my man git gud

Actually the thing that pisses me off most about shitmaps isn't even that they're shit, it's the fact the only reason I have to play them is because people keep voting for them.

The fact that so many people want to play the absolute dog shit trash all the time just reminds me everytime about what kind of subhuman fucking retards I'm playing the game with.

What are some good bootyhunter builds? I can't settle on one

Nigger even with ERLLs on a cuckdraw with quirks and the range module level 5 I only have 810m (optimal) range

The only weapons that could possibly range out that far are ER PPCs, ERLLs, and Goose.

Why would you continually expose yourself to this fire? Even kids that touch something hot know not to do it again.
YOU'RE SO FUCKING SHIT, IT'S DIFFICULT TO KEEP A POSITIVE METAL ATTITUDE

Nothing of value was lost, thanks for updating us on your blog

You mean subhuman fucking retards such as yourself?

Eliza was a computer program from like the 60's, he wasn't shit posting.

MAD-BH only has the one ballistic hardpoint iirc.

So you should just settle on getting gud with that Gauss Gun.

if only we could channel subhuman fucking retards into a form of energy. We could save the world economic crisis and the 1st world dependence on the 3rd worlds bullshit. Truly ending an era mudslime terrorism and ushering in a golden age of plenty.

Map was Boreal Vault cant really hide behind shit

I'm guessing you're one of those fags who's convinced themselves they're really good at the game, when they're painfully not.

I'm also willing to bet that your such an insufferable douchebag that a zergfit like MS wouldn't even tolerate you.

Enjoy your solitude, I guess.

mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=348&l=2295921417451647624826ad27897d87418cde3d

like so?

Are you serious? There's plenty of cover.

If you're D6 E6 area you can fire at enemies as they try to push in through D4, where your LPLs would work. If you get shot at, use the terrain like hills and their slopes for cover. If there's UAVs you shoot them down, there's also some buildings.Stay a scrub lord.

lmao such asshurt kid, enjoy your zerg outfit. I bet you're such a shit player and so thin skinned that you couldn't handle the mumble banter. Go ahead and join the zerg, no one will miss you.

Unsubscribed and downvoted your shitty blog.

Not when your team gets pushed back to their drop zone cause of baddies.

Dudebot stop farming for you's

Then why didn't you mention that? If you get pushed to your dropzone then you deserve to lose, no amount of cover is going to save your sorry team.

Dudebot is actually out this weekend, I'm filling in for him. Would you like to leave a message?
