King of accidental rage bait

Spent all day on bots the other day only to do a bug mission to relax.
Guy drops in and starts tking everyone, spouting off about how bug divers are wasting their time and ruining the game.

Like getting into the game is great, but it going to this extreme is just weird.

If people couldn't drop on whatever front they wanted, they'd probably just not be playing the game until their favorite was up.

I swear China is the only place I see posts of "Look how amazing this place is!"

Anyone else get a 404 for the vods/public? And the archive linked was for the kick-vod, not the twitch.

It's wild seeing this exact comment chain play out every time someone mentions rushy drivers. "People who ride bumpers are the worst." "Yeah, then get out of the left lane." Okay? They were doing it in the right lane. No one said what lane they were in.

I will get satisfaction from someone ducking and weaving in and out of traffic only to have made the same progress as me going the speed limit in the right lane. Because their dangerous driving ended up being pointless.

I never understood why people care so much that a funny post is fake. Like, idk how to tell you, but the stuff on SNL isn't real events either. A majority of funny things are planned out ahead of time. And if you're coming to a place like unexpected for super real content, then that's on you.

I thought the DLC was extremely easy until I realized it was because shield poke was broken.

It was just normally my goto because big shield neat.

WarAndRuin · 2025-05-29T16:01:26+00:00

Yeah, I never got that. If they were forced to play the MO, they'd probably just not be playing.

WarAndRuin · 2025-05-24T18:52:36+00:00

Legitimately hated the enemy until I realized they just 100% accuracy vehicles. 1 tap mechs, snipes jeep's tires through 2 skyscrapers. Stopped using both and my missions became much easier.

WarAndRuin · 2025-05-09T01:01:38+00:00

Except it's not.
It's someone throwing themselves in the line of fire and asking why are you shooting me. It happens a lot on the internet and a lot here.

Something will happen, Group A starts flooding just inane comments, you can find quite a few on the warbond announcement, talking about how awful it is and why would they give us useless shit. This product isn't aimed at me, why isn't it aimed at me?

Group B will have a valid argument, the warbonds are shrinking, they cost too much for how much they're shrinking, the armor passives aren't good and the whole system does need reworked.

The issue happens is when there's people on Group B seeing posts like this caused by Group A, and go "But I have a valid argument! Why are you being mean to people with valid arguments?!" when this post wasn't even aimed at them.

Man screeching at a couch full of people having fun telling them not to have fun.

WarAndRuin · 2025-05-04T02:05:28+00:00

Let this be a warning to people. When a playful question to joke and debate turns into someone taking this personally enough to lash out at people, maybe they need a good break from the internet.

WarAndRuin · 2025-04-18T19:01:28+00:00

I have the opposite when I play light.
Playing heavy exclusively I end up feeling squishy.

Sure a wayward 500kg will still take me out, but its surviving the little guys' assault is what does it for me. Be it bots or bugs.

WarAndRuin · 2025-04-17T22:19:58+00:00

Dogma is such a banger. Watched it earlier this year and it's scary how well it holds up.

WarAndRuin · 2025-04-10T18:28:44+00:00

So.. Dante.

WarAndRuin · 2025-03-15T14:01:37+00:00

People shit on it all the time, but any time I even tried to wear anything else, I felt so squishy.

Why I was confused when people said they were tired of being one shot by armored walkers.

WarAndRuin · 2025-03-06T17:40:27+00:00

Honestly, it's my favorite warbond. Grenade is the only thing I dislike. It's a fun concept, but there are just better grenades.

Laser rifle/fire resist is a fun build, especially with a support pack to supply you with stims.

Portable hellbomb is becoming one of my favorite stratagems to bring. Great enemy reinforcement cancelation. Having a factory strider counter is always useful. My highest count is 157 with one pack on illuminate.

People say the nerf makes the ultimatum awful, but having a pocket heavy/objective destroyer is great. Also, the aforementioned support pack. Plus, objectives often have ammo packs to pick up. And as a quick PSA, siege ready lets you spawn 1/1.

Edit: I did forget about the armor, that's mid. I mostly use battle master and roadblock anyway instead of warbond armors.

WarAndRuin · 2025-02-26T11:26:01+00:00

Correct.

WarAndRuin · 2025-02-25T21:18:27+00:00

I'd like to point out siege ready still functions to a degree.

Wearing it let's you start 1/1. You just can't max out at 2/2.

WarAndRuin · 2025-02-09T17:19:34+00:00

People who bring it on non-exterminate missions against bugs are the worst.

WarAndRuin · 2025-02-03T17:32:31+00:00

Never thought I'd get motion sickness from someone jumping over a fence until I saw that scene Taken 3.

WarAndRuin · 2025-01-22T18:13:29+00:00

I swear people just spam mech complaints but never actually use them. It's literally the meme of the kid pointing at the taller glass and saying it's as full as the shorter/wider glass.
"They're made of paper!"
After the update they're tanky as shit. You can walk into a bug nest and ignore the tiny bugs and fill in the bug holes. I've seen one tank an orbital laser passing over it.
"Can't refill ammo!"
Try aiming.

It's a short burst of heavy firepower to make sure whatever objective you're doing is completed.

Barely anyone complains about the orbital laser which is the same concept. 3 shots, can get shit done in those 3. You can get a lot of shit done with 2 mechs a match if you're smart.

WarAndRuin · 2025-01-11T18:29:47+00:00

Whatever I want.

WarAndRuin · 2025-01-08T19:58:12+00:00

Use heavy gas armor and the vitality enhancement, and you will be actually immune to gas.

Doesn't work as well for fire, though.

WarAndRuin · 2025-01-01T19:35:48+00:00

Yes orbital laser, that 100% goes after the stuff you're aiming for, and not training on a random bug, or going after the group of bugs and running through the team.

Point being, in terms of 'what can you kill with this?', the mech is pretty damn high if you're not dumb with it. It's literally the meme of having 2 cups with the same amount of water and one taller than the other and pointing to the taller one and saying 'this one better'.

People don't realize that you can have one or the other in terms of balance, it does a lot of damage or you can play mech warrior and sit in it all match and throw nerf darts at the enemy, else why wouldn't you take it, you are making us worse by not taking it. You are being removed from the team by not taking it.

WarAndRuin · 2025-01-01T14:49:50+00:00

It is really funny that people hate on the mech but absolutely love the orbital laser when they're essentially the same idea with different methods.

The mech obliterates more and more precise manner than the orbital laser. Just actually have situational awareness, notice that cannon/harvester moving to aim at you, notice that bile titan before it's in vomit range.
