Indeed. I'll be preping a big meal friday night, but I will definetly show up for at least 2 hours of blast-o-matic action. Anybody know if the patch gives us back 8 man teams? I hope so.
I hope there is a good turn out this friday, 8-pilot premades are being allowed in today's patch supposidly. Lets have at least 8 of us on so if it is true we have enough( 8 or nothing rule ). Let's crush our enemies beneath our mech's feet and turn them into scrap metal. GO 11th GHOST OLD BATTLE DRAGONS.
We are all going to need a drink after ECM came out, with the 8 man premades we are likely to see groups with all ECM mechs. 6 atlas DC and 2 cicada's, 2 raven's, 2 cicada's and 4 atlas's, 4 cicada's and 4 atlas's, 4 raven's and 4 atlas's, or 8 atlas's. I am debating whether to just stick to 4 man lances in pug's.
Ok, so we go in to an 8 man preemie with a couple of ATL-DC's, and mechs that can blow thru armor like A/C 20's/ U; A/C 5's and SRM Cats. Then we continue to alter and adapt to find effective countermeasures that rely more on teamwork than a device that negates weapons dependant on locks. Have more faith in us as a team than hesitation that an individual module that cannot overcome it.
AutoCannon Mechs in many flavors. Ask and I can accommodate. I agree with Kurupt Age and wisdom beats youth and vigor always! People who rely on niches and exploits are lazy and uninspired. They can always be out thought and overcome. I know that between all of us there is at least a whole brain, and with the power of that brain we can kill them all or die gloriously either way it ought to be a lot of fun!
I do have real faith in the team, it is just the match making that has me alittle worried. I was never afraid of ECM, since I never really heavily relied on LRM's. My builds were always brawlers with a little long range punch, except for the couple of builds that are very specfically rolled. Even my A1 catapult can be altered to fight ECM as well so I am flexible that way as well. I will never doubt the team again, I promise. Thank you for the wake up call I will never forget it. It is the dependance, that ECM is creating in many of the 8 man premades that will be their weakness, we do still need to use it in a strategic way. We do have to be careful of those 8 man premades that have learned to make ECM an very real advantage. I notice a few commado's and cicada's that have ECM with SSRM 2's and I can imagine a atlas DC with quite a few LRM's as well. We do have to be careful of those builds. For example in our scouts and command mechs. Let's roll out in a 8 man premade tomorrow night and crush, destory, mutilate, annilate and oblidorate our enemies before us.
I'd say faith is justified! We had many a game in 8 mans last night and if my sleep deprived brain is correct I'd say weee came out on top in most of em. Pretty sweet knowing we got the stuff gents.
I agree. See you tomorrow!
Let blow some arms, legs, torso, and heads off tonight guy's. Let's savour the kills and make the enemy suffer slowly.
I think I suffered more then them....
Lets make a good showing this friday, like last friday almost 3 full lances in raid call.

Not that I could tell yet,I checked the patch notes and no mention of phase 2 yet (8 player premades).
NO PHASE 2 YET, BUT WE'RE GETTING A ac5 HOTFIX AND A SURPRISE TODAY.
I can't wait!
I'll be on tonight if i'm not too drunk to pilot
I hope that they bring back 8 person premades when they bring the new hero cataphract.
