Guys is MWO p2w?

Wait hold up
>IS ER Mediums have longer cooldown than regular Mediums
WHAT

>The people who have some premeditated--but ultimately gay and cringe as hell--message that they post every time they enter a game

I'm glad you at least used a slightly better OP.

>hmm maybe I could do a banshee brawler with heavy gauss and two snubs
>oh wait they are in the same ghost heat group

thanks pgi

jeez, just use lpls instead

>PGI nerfs the most powerful build available to clans
>dumb nigger sphere whines because some shit build wont work

RRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>The people who use extended zoom. Ever.

Kinda. A lot of people just pay $20 to get their favorite mech and then buy everything else with in game currency.

Pay to skip grind IS pay to win.

can't skip XP grind, which still takes like a full month of playing just to skill out a single mech

do not buy a roughneck

...

why did you

filename

but why

...

why not?

>full month of playing to skill out a single mech

The fuck?
You get around 1200 XP for each match (no premium time or bonus) which takes ~6 minutes. That's 1.5 nodes per 10 min and 15 per hour. So in total (91 nodes) 6 hours for one mech, give or take one hour for potato fluctuantion.

How does playing 6 hours take one month? That's one evening at best.

2A is a pretty cool guy though
mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=538&l=53325461ba15d7c91ef791289c87771b13b06e2f

>1200 XP for each match
In what fucking universe?

Not him, but pic related is an example of an average game before civil war, I only saved it because I managed to twist so well

I've been thinking of getting the Roughneck 3A and doing this build. mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=539&l=bb41118e131241ce3744aad4907ffbc632677338

Or just buy a Grasshopper which is infinitely better.

3A is probably the WORST Grasshopper, simply because it doesn't do anything that another heavy doesn't already do better.

But you're not as tall as a Grasshopper

>3A is probably the WORST Grasshopper
I meant Roughneck

The one where you don't drop in meme builds and play moderately good?
1250 XP right off the bat.

And the above calculation did not even include the fwod bonus and the 10% GXP

So you are ok with playing roughly 60 games just so your mech doesn't perform like garbage? Because you forgot about that, you are playing a mech that doesn't have any skill points invested, which is a massive difference.

That's with a "first win of the day" bonus guaranteed my dude.

I think you attribute too much to nodes
The only nodes that actually make or break builds are coolshots on excessively laser boating supernovas and the like
The skill tree is never a valid excuse for bad performance. Especially on IS mechs

lol
pick up a mech and go play it without skill nodes, enjoy having your sides blown off by one alpha, your agility being dog shit, your heat efficiency and DPS being significantly lower and of course not having game changing consumables

solo queue 101

never be the one to push first, because your useless shit teammates are definitely not going to follow

>well met and melt well!

Consumables are 4 to 5 nodes for nearly the full package. Just take a loan from your GXP pool.

>the macro thunderkats spams at every match
I have TK'd him for that a few times.

Please tell me you captured the moment at least once

>saving evidence of your crimes
are you trying to get me banned?

I just want to feel the release of removing autism from your own team, if only second hand

Ended up buying the Roughneck 3A I had fun shooting things with high mounted Heavy PPCS

Real life obligations, caused by my mom's doctors who claim she's dying, have resulted in me not really striving to have computer access, for obvious reasons. There's more to it, but that will have to wait until I can compose myself.

Is he legit retarded or he just memeing?

okay goto bed

sleep tight, dont let the crippling drug additions bite

>do 800 damage
>lose game
>500 xp
kill yourself retard

I just started playing mwo

I finished tutorial and then chose the fastest lightest robot I could find with rocket jumpers

Its nice, wish strafing was easier tho

I assume you chose the Spider then?

no u

I literally just did 800 damage, lost and only got 496 XP.

How does the duel snub Hunchie play?

>those trypophobic hunches

lamao

I just can't win a game, teammates are so fucking brain dead retarded every single time, how can anyone enjoy this fucking game?

That's where they're putting the missile tubes? Really?

minimal effort
when will you learn? this is always the case with PGI, that's why everything in the civil war update was so unpolished and amateurish

Anybody think that Clans need their Quirks back>

no

Not really.

The Timber needs its mobility back.

Timber was nerfed to be 'above average' instead of 'awesome'
If you think it needs it's mobility back then you were only using it because it was OP.

"ILKHAN, ILKHAN! THE INNER SPHERE HAVE MADE A NEW MECH THAT IS EVEN TALLER THAN THE EXECUTIONER!"

"Stand back, I got this."

Stupid Bears.

No, the Timber Wolf is completely average at best now. The other clan heavies except the Night Gyr are all better than it these days, and the Night Gyr would still be if Gauss/PPC ghost heat wasn't linked.

It should not be the most sluggish of them when it has the largest engine in them, an engine that is actually a disadvantage to take in MWO. Mobility is what the TBR is built around and not having it is retarded.

Also if you think the Timber Wolf was OP in the last year you are flat out wrong. Prior to skilltree it was nowhere near overperforming, with multiple mechs being a better choice over it in many roles. Even IS mechs.

>tfw the last surviving mech on your team is a chain firing hunchback iic

>tfw too intelligent to go under bridges

What was he firing?

3lpl and 3mpl

8SPLs.

engine desync hit is mechs too buddy

Name an IS Heavy with worse mobility than the TBR. If by some chance you're able to do that, a tall order because even the BK, Orion and Marauder have it beat, compare how much tonnage is invested in its engine vs the TBR. It dedicates over a third of its tonnage to an engine you cannot change. There is no reason it is not more mobile.

What are Good Night Gyr builds anyway now days since they nerfed Goose and PPC

sell them

inb4 Nova Cat has Night Gyr mobility

>Juju
How can anyone unironically watch this? It's like Greg if he had every dial turned up to 11.

there are none, the only thing that is even remotely useful would be the uac2 meme build. but since you're slow as fuck with no mobility or armor quirks you'll just die the moment you expose.

Guys enjoy the mad cat mkii before it gets its mobility stomped to the ground.

Mk 2 doesn't release for c-bills until... what, 2018? Plenty of time to abuse the best mech in the game before it inevitably gets nerfed to the ground.

>clam mechs
>best in the game

@185512443
no (You) for (You)

>oy vey we promise no more negative quirks
>btw timberwolf omnipods still have negative quirks :^)
>also we're making a massive fundamental change to the game which lets us circumvent our promise by letting us arbitrarily give negative quirks 2.0 to any mech we want
JUST

Funny you ask.

How long ago was Clan wave 2?

End of the year in 2014 if memory serves. Wave 3 was the following summer.

...

>give more mechs more quirks instead of toning down IS quirks

MORE QUIRKS

Kongratulations, Kakos "Kikkelis Kokkelis" Kolos

IS ER Mediums are bad.

I have no idea what the fuck you dumb australians are doing. I average well over 2000 xp a match.
picrelated is without premtime, and without any bonuses at all.

proofs?

shit DPH and they have longer cooldown than regular mediums

You can't just be dropping these finnish memes. No one will understand

How's this for babby's first IS heavy brawler?

mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=83&l=c2e8b4537626a170d70fcecd02ca4d37fc181cdd

They're just mad because bad.

>heavy brawler

Make sure you chainfire those srms :^)
