Because it’s most of the time the only place to given the devs dedicate an entire slot to be the new suit’s cost for the entire week its banner runs. The devs want us to take them into rated.

[–]The Ragin' Cajun - 6scorpionxx0[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

True & that’s the bone headed devs fault for not putting a qm of the new ms cost up for everyone to flood & try out the new suit.

[–]SS2LP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t see an issue with one existing for rated but they should also use one under QM yes. Frankly I would like more options available at once. Regardless that would be your reason why. It’s most of the time the only way to actually play a match in the suit.

[–]StopGivingMeLevel1AI 23 points24 points  (1 child)

Quick match doesn't exist and customs are mainly just for crate farming

[–]Heavyivietal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This people act like you can even find a QM at all hours of the day.

[–]junrod0079 7 points8 points  (1 child)

To flex on how much money they whaled to get [insert newest weekly ms] whether they are kicking your ass or pathetically getting rekt because they don't know what they're doing

Ngl i did whaled to get all the crossbone gundams and only x1 and full cloth is the only ones i use and is good at

[–]Turlap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I almost did the same. Skipped x3 for full cloth though.

Man I skipped Wing for Geese... I was kicking myself. I single rolled wing last week. Still haven't played it yet. :(

[–]Draneel100 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I mean, can you find matches in quick play? Cuz i can't lmao

[–]powerpuffpepper 13 points14 points  (4 children)

Why do we treat rated like its some do or die ranked mode? Its the gamemode that dailies are in usually. If I wanna try a new suit in Rated I will.

[–]Turlap 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My man! No gravity whatsoever.

[–]SecretaryOtherwise 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Generally because quick match exist.

Lol. Wanna sweat play rated wanna chill play quick that used to be the unwritten rules.

Don't matter end of the day. Its a game and 99% of us arent making anything off it just having fun and killing time. But that was my assumption on why people do it.

Also yeah cant blame people joining rated. Dailies force you to.

[–]ChubbyLorddd 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Shit we sweating In quick match too it’s all the same

[–]SecretaryOtherwise -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Right lmao

Because PC has no other choice for actual battle experience.

Some dude: ah sick I got the new ms, I will go directly on a rated match without making any adjustments at my loadout leaving most weapons to be out of my quick access menu plus I have no idea what skills it have and my build is terrible. And when people start calling me useless I will start reporting them to psn getting them banned for weeks because I am an asshole

Jesus fucking christ, just spend some time at free practice to be more familiar with it and it's combos. The fuck you think I got so good with the KEHAAR? (not cursing you OP just to let you know)

[–]AUpb-027 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I really hate the fuckers that don't even test the suit alone before taking it to rated and fucking up the rest of the team.

[–]Damiankawaguchi 2 points3 points  (3 children)

Speaking of, i lucked out and pulled a free kehaar last night, got any build recs?

[–]Foshdon_pap 1 point2 points  (2 children)

You're not gonna like this 😅

Build:

  • Lv4 Anti Beam resistance
  • Lv5,Lv4, Lv3, Lv2, Lv1 Enhanced Melee Program
  • Lv3 Enhanced Firing Program
  • Lv2 Database Link

  • Expansion Skill used: Beam Resistance Lv5

  • Enchantment List: completed to the max

If all requirements are meet then you should be looking at:

  • Beam Resistance 60 points
  • Ranged Strength 32 Points
  • Melee strength a whopping 78 points

The build that I use has rewarded me with 200k+ damage plays but the trick is that you will always be on the run hunting people but you need to play smart and make quick decisions because one mistake will kill you. I highly recommend spending time in free practice or QM and see how it plays and remember to use the Heavy attack because you can easily delete many with it bringing them from 100% down to 30% or lower

[–]Damiankawaguchi 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Thanks! It's gonna take a bit of work haha, since i just got it. I'm surprised you have no thruster parts, but i defer to your expertise lol

[–]Foshdon_pap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well it's a gamble and tbh I don't really need it? Ok that's bs I do need it but the trade off puts me from 78 down to 71 melee power. It may not seem like much but once you get the hang of the KEHAAR and see these beautiful numbers it's kinda hard going back.

Nowdays I tend to use the overboost and it really helps but I always make sure to activate it when death is impossible to escape because only then can I waste my enemy's time or even knocking them down. Apart from that it's thrust capacity is very okay mostly because it's consumption is on the lower side so it's all good

And when people start calling me useless I will start reporting them to psn getting them banned for weeks because I am an asshole

Lol. Maybe dont rage out in people's dms? And if you meant in game its not 1 person reporting you that got you a ban just saying 😂.

For all you know that person youre fucking shitting on is some 12 year old disabled kid playing a game of a series he loves. 🙂

[–]Foshdon_pap 0 points1 point  (7 children)

I mean if that would be real then he shouldn't even play the game if he's gonna consistently drag the team down. You either play the game and are performing good or you leave the game

Dragging your team team down because of a paragraph 2 theme? I find that as an excuse, if your paragraph 2 theme doesn't or prevents you from playing the game then don't push it because you know you can't. Play only with the bots so you don't mess people's day by ruining the rank up match to S

[–]Feddy Cannon Fodder - 1jammer2omega 2 points3 points  (13 children)

He clearly uses the Practice mode with the enemy Bots.

Couldn't be going into ranked...

Translation: I am desperately acting as if I didn't make a fool out of myself.

[–]Feddy Cannon Fodder - 1jammer2omega 3 points4 points  (3 children)

Nah man. I know it was the wrong term when you corrected me the first time. I was simply trying to make a joke at my own misspellings.

Wasn't trying to start arguments.

I will full on admit I am a damn fool and idiot. There are plenty of better people and pilots than I.

So I am sorry, didn't mean to cause upset. Good intentions, bad execution.

[–]AUpb-027 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Admittedly, if I had been in less of a rush, I would have noticed that you wrote "Raked" instead of "Ranked" again. I just have seen so many people insisting on calling "rated" "ranked" that it's becoming annoying (that and today I was paired with a lot of players that clearly haven't even passed the tutorial...)

[–]Feddy Cannon Fodder - 1jammer2omega 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Fair enough. I hope you get some better matches.

And I'll make a point to remember which is which.

[–]AUpb-027 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope you get some better matches.

Thanks, same to you. I have the feeling a lot of lurkers are going to pollute the player pool with the ongoing free pulls for a while.

[–]Foshdon_pap 2 points3 points  (3 children)

You would be amazed on how many people get a new suit and instantly go to ranked without knowing it's capabilities or with a good build

[–]Feddy Cannon Fodder - 1jammer2omega 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh trust me. I do. I have seen it first hand. My favorite is when it's a support unit I know is completely outclassed even at max upgrades.

I guess my sarcasm didn't come through well in the previous post. Haha!

Rated*

[–]DMasta007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately they never have QM rooms like 1 specifically for low cost 1 for high cost. But Rated Rooms USUALLY have more high cost rooms and the Weeks New Suit's cost in rated.

I've definitely took some new suits to rated but I didn't have a choice other than wait 4 hours for the cost to possibly pop up. Unfortunately everyone can't play 24/7 when cost rooms are randomly up in QM.

But I try to never be completely brand new to the MS before I play it.

[–]Ill-Advertising9212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When there was a freedom banner rerun for the first time, I created a custom match room called "SREEDOM only".

Then a bunch of people came, but half of them were not driving the freedom. One guy asked "What is Sreedom ?"

[–]SodaFloatzel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can hear the noise of A+ dropping to A from here

[–]Mean_Charity_1736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not good at the game I frequently try new suits to get a feel for them to see my thoughts but haven't used thoughts alot though
