This thread being constantly pushed off the board is really embarrassing.

For SC fags the space motorcycle comes out today.

Every thread is constantly being pushed off the board. Too many new shit threads because it's summer.

make it stop

>tfw team full of talentless hacks who use zoom modules

>town hall at 9pm eastern on a friday

What a shitty time. Do they honestly expect people don't have better things to do on a friday night?

I don't have better things to do on a Friday night.

When will the shit tournament be over?

>retarded faggots walk into death one by one on a retarded fucking shitmap made out of nothing but chokepoints and los-blocking foliage
>blame the ones that didn't suicide for "hiding"

>4 matches
>4 losses where drooling retards run in and die one by one before I can do anything
Holy shit people never learn. Most of these shitters have probably been playing the game way longer than me and they still don't understand that walking into multiple laserboats and kodiak-3s through a narrow chokepoint will kill you. Actual animals learn that fire burns faster than these people.

>he has better things to do on a friday night than listen to Russ´ sweet sweet lies
get on my level nigga

End of the year.

FIVE GAMES IN A ROW
LOST EXACTLY IN THE SAME WAY

If you're reading this and are one of those fucking dumbfucks that is always one of the first ones do die then neck yourself, jesus fucking christ I hate everything. Is it too much to ask of your teammates to let go of the throttle at any point of the match

the waifubait instructor is literally the only good thing that came out of that abortion of a game

>falling behind
My man you have to git gud

>salt

So is the huntsman an IS omnimech?

Six games

People this fucking bad and completely lacking in any common sense or situlational awareness would be on 0 elo hell in any other fucking game, why is the matchmaking so goddam nfucking terrible

nope

prepare your anus for a fourth clan mech, freebirth.

kek

I win almost 90% of my matches. You are simply not carrying your weight.

>inb4 denial
Then post your screenshots.

this one, not the gaylord

>muh thumb armor and pipboy

You're full of shit unless you play Kodiaks/any high burst robots only (and this might not even make a difference in most cases), you're in tier5 or you only play in the morning.

Sometimes you just get a game which you can't carry if one or two from your team die early as the game is very snowbally

There's a large number of people who think the game is simply them and 23 NPCs, ignoring everything else around them to mindlessly shoot robots and die.

You dying means nothing to them. It's why assaults that can't hit 64kph at least are generally treated as trash in solo queue. Likewise, they care for nothing except getting to shoot those robots, so they'll generally either mill around randomly until there's a red dorito to chase, or plunge into the nearest killbox and let the drones on the other side kill them.

The percentage of intelligent players increases with tier, but even that is rapidly getting diluted as Paul's retarded PSR system stuffs the paint-chip eaters in with everyone else regardless of actual skill, simply for getting enough participation ribbons.

>the game is very snowbally

Exactly.

>game is simply them and 23 NPC

Also true.

Winning matches simply requires you to use your npcs to stay alive long enough to kill enough enemies that you can start the snowball.

>works on my machine
Yeah don't worry I'll PM you the fix :^)

PSR is mostly a measure of match scores and match scores aren't a precise measurement of skill so it will never be perfect.

Players on teams aren't necessarily balanced with each other.

The teams overall are balanced against each other through PSR more or less. There is about 5-20% variation depending on the player population at any given time. After PSR it tries to balance tonnage, but that is lower priority.

What this means is that teams will still vary. Maybe there are 12 average players on one side, and 8 weak players and 4 good ones on the other.

So if your team is shit, that's fine because it means the other team is also shit, or you're supposed to be so much better than your teammates to make up for it. Unless you're not carrying your weight as such a good player.

If you're not at the top of your team almost every match even those you lose, you're either a scrub who has wrong ideas about what's going on or you're simply not carrying the weight you're supposed to be.

Either way you shouldn't be complaining about your team but instead git gud.

Fucking retarded aids faggot teammates
Fucking idiots voting for shitmaps every time

is amazing go play it!!

>published by enix
truly the most ancient of may mays

That's because no cell shading and you can't give them the same expressions in game without cell shading to hide the fact that to even close their eyes you need to massively deform the cheeks. Next time you play a song where they close their eyes look closely and you'll see the crease where the cheeks are literally yanked up to their eyebrows. I can't so that because without cell shading the huge mesh deformations cast shadows and it looks really obvious and ugly.

Its such a good game though.

>literal laser vomit now exists in titanfall

PSR isn't even a measure of skill, merely time played.

And that means right now, the guy picking his brain via his noseholes who plays all the time with his high-response steering wheel eventually gets in the same slot as someone who outperforms him by four-five times the match score on a regular basis.

All it takes is enough of those blue-ribbon products of overly enforced inbreeding to be playing and slotted into your team as "good" and suddenly, you look at the scoreboard two minutes in and it's already 0-6.

This is even more hilarious when someone's started an alt account and is in full sealclubbing mode- say, Proton or even Mcgral on one of his alts he slums around with off-stream. Your "so-so" T4 or T3 player is actually a killing machine and since both shit and cream rise to the top, the matchmaker becomes increasingly meaningless as played time increases.

All you can do is git gud and produce as hard as you can, hoping that the RNG gave you a team that can count past ten without needing to take their shoes off first.

(Well, unless they actually fix the PSR to cause meaningful loss and eventual tier loss for the bads, but that's like expecting Russ to outperform Microsoft in program development.)

Threads are being pushed down faster in general, not just /gerg/ as summer has increased the number of generals, period.

>Next time you play a song where they close their eyes look closely and you'll see the crease where the cheeks are literally yanked up to their eyebrows
Just checked. I can't really tell honestly, but you're the 3D model expert here not me

So I was thinking about that power draw system. One of the comments said something about capping it by damage. Won't that mean lighter mechs will become even more disproportionately powerful when you can't go over 30 damage without going into sauna mode, regardless of whether you're a locust or a dire whale?

Patch Notes are out

mwomercs.com/news/2016/06/1580-patch-notes-1472-21jun2016

i just noticed the new calldown system
also apparently the weapons have infinite reloads and the grenades are on a cooldown
holy shit yes

>That's because
ffs hurry the fuck up and whore yourself out for a decent graphics card so that you can make renders that aren't shit

>checks the quirks

Looks like PGI thinks rescale = downgrade quirks all over the place, save for the truly worst victims like the Huehuehue IIC and Onion IICs, who got a little structure (and in the 90-tonner's case, mobility) love.

Warhammers look like they all got a downgrade, for example.

>All of these already huge mechs getting BIGGER

Hey, at least I won't have to play them.

>AS7-S nerfs

Fug

Wow. Plenty of new supersizemebots- even the Atlas got chunkier.

And a lot of lights.

>Grasshopper and Black Knight BIGGER than an ATLAS
WTF Bungie?!

I like the Scale Reference pic with all the mechs in it. The pilot scratching his head and the pilot shrugging next to the missing Cyclops and Huntsman were nice touches.
HOLY FUG that GIANT Night Gyr!

>muh summerfags

I can't believe people still think this is a thing. Fucking retards.

People are going to abuse the hell out of this.

>experience is not skill meme

Do you think players just show up being great players and knowing all the maps and mechs just overnight? Like everything, mastering something takes time and effort.

STOP

MOVING
INTO THE CHANNEL
NOBODY

JOIN
FUCK KONG

If you're a complete retard you won't make it to Tier 1/2.

If you're a mediocre/poor player you will take 3000+ matches to get to Tier 1, which is a lot of matches, more than most people play.

The PSR system isn't great but it isn't worthless. Most of the people in Tier 2 and 1 aren't completely braindead at all.

THERE'S
A
REASON
NO
