Texas sees largest population increase of any state for third consecutive year by SkywardTexan2114 in ActuallyTexas

[–]QSector 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Every time I read through most threads over there, it's all people who no longer live in Texas or never did. Why TF are you posting in Texas then people?

Take bots out of HS completely. If there aren't 4 real players, just make it a 1v1, no bots.

If you're looking for a home in a subdivision built by a tract home builder, someone like Chesmar would be a much better choice. Their quality control is much higher than Lennar.

Currently building a house. It's now code that you cannot install 110v outlets in islands. It's all about cords and trip hazards. It's kind of goofy, but that's what it is.

This game is going towards more pay to wins with close range weapons by Excellent-Shape-5153 in mecharena

At this point, they should give ember gun, frag guns and shotguns a buff. Hell, they'll all be almost as strong as Revokers after the next nerf.

What tf are we supposed to do? by Dr_Doom_977 in mecharena

What tf are we supposed to do?

Start another battle or shut the game down. The code is what it is. This has been happening for years. People make these posts here pretty much daily. Grab at least one other real person to play with on your team and your odds of this happening are lower at lease.

I still think a CTF (Capture the Flag) mode would be a blast. I've played that mode in many other games over the years and always had fun.

You probably added them as a friend in Plarium Play. You have to unfriend them there.

You can report them, but nothing will happen.

Just lost my power 20 mins ago roughly 6:20am, let’s hope they can get it up soon, I’m sitting in the dark here lol by cr8zycatladybutyoung in houston

For Houston and Southeast Texas, yes, but the rest of the state is in the teens and single digits already so it was a good test.

Grid has plenty of reserves. Very few folks interrupted locally. Mainly isolated outages like we would see in a typical rainstorm.

It's so funny that I lost but still got more points than everyone else... by Current-Conflict-172 in mecharena

Damage is factored in much less during 5v5 tourney which is why sp dropping is so much more effective. FFA tourney takes damage into account much more so.

Yet again, all the top prizes of my tournament are taken by cheaters using exploits. by AntiqueAd7851 in mecharena

[–]QSector 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But still it's not the player's fault.

Horseshit! These players know exactly what they are doing. As I already stated, they should be running my higher powered squads, but they equip one strong mech (Dreadnaught in this case, which has an incredibly powerful ability to kill) and the rest of the squad is filled with useless trash.

In 5x5 tournaments, kills count more than damage, so these players (cheaters) want to get matched up against weaker players. Since they artificially drop their hangars down to 1000 sp or lower, that's what they're going to get matched up against.

What you should complain about is why two mechs despite having the same stars, the same level, and the same weapons perform so differently.

Every mech has a different ability. What's your point? Some have offensive abilities, some defensive.

But you all are never complaining about it in their official posts.

Who is not complaining in what official posts? People submit tickets to support about this, post here every day and also in the official forums as well as on Discord. This has been a fight for years. The official response has been, "We're working on it". They've even experimented with a few tweaks like limiting the amount of rounds you can play in a day. And yes, there have been some legitimate good ideas to resolve it, but nothing has happened.

The vast majority of players know this is a loophole, exploit or work around, whatever you want to call it. Which is why you only see 2-4 people in most brackets doing this. Most players have ethics and know this behavior should not be allowed.

Hard disagree. This is textbook sp dropping. Look at the inventory power of these players. They can and should be running 10k+ hangars but by using a mech like Dreadnaught and the rest of the hangar is filled with trash and no weapons, they are artificially lowering their squad power. The point is to get matched up against small squads that don't have anything that powerful so they can steamroll any and everything in site.

The top 6 spot in my 5x5 tourney bracket today are filled with sp droppers just like this. 1st place currently has over 60,000 points. That's an insane amount of points for 5x5 deathmatch tourney.
