I'm better than you. Keep reading to see why. I've got better aim, I'm a better player and blah blah blah blah...
I see where you're going there. So, lets cover a few things, shall we_
1) I didn't react in anger, but only out of surprise that Heat Cannon - 1 shot - seemed to take 450+ health instantly killing me. The first time this happened_ No reaction. The second time_ Still, no reaction. The 20~ish-th time, when in-game with you_ Yep. Definitely. And my reaction was "Heat Cannon needs to GTFO". It was not a commentary about the player using it. I'm sorry you interpreted it that way. In-game text is very limited. My Bad.
2) You should check my other gameplay vids. Generally speaking, my aim is actually pretty close to superb (though some days are definitely better than others). There are those with better aim, it's true; but I can usually go toe-to-toe with them any day of the week and hold my own. If you're actually a better player, then good for you. Would you like a cookie_ Oh, wait, you've sunk more hours into the game than most others here, so you've gotten your cookies already. Anyway... Since I don't recall calling anyone by any dubious names, just that the weapon either needs to go or see some much needed balance changes, you're other comments are beyond unwarranted.
3) I've recorded every match I've ever played in Hawken and reviewed the ones eremarked with your name (yes, if I recognize a player from the forums, I eremark the video). I not only usually do better than you, but when against you, we tend to stand on equal footing. A few times you've gotten the upperhand. Good for you.
4) The only times I've seen you be "OP" as a player are the few times you've resorted to using weapons that
EVERYONE ELSE agrees is pretty overpowered. You must feel awesome.
5) I wasn't logging "complaints" - not as of yet, anyway - but feedback. While I admit it's nice to see a troll admitting to being a troll; my posting feedback of any kind is no less valid than any opinion you might have.
6) I shouldn't have a need to justify why I think or agree that a weapon/class is overpowered if it's already been eloquently argued and stated by others.
7) I have never - not now or will I ever - fault a team for working as a team and succeeding because they do so. However, when one high-level player is all it takes to carry an entire team - which has been me on more than one occasion - some balance changes might be in order. In TDM, it's understandable - no fixed spawn rate, unlimited kills, no other objectives to accomplish besides killing - but when this happens in Siege or in Missile, a closer look at the current balancing is in order.
8) AJK, your interpretation of events is wildly hilarious. You seem to think I'm calling you out - and just you - but you're sadly mistaken. I was actually making a commentary of chats I've heard in-game and seen on-screen on more than one occasion. Since our last encounter was the most recent, no doubt you - in your infinite wisdom - thought it was just about you. But it's not. Just a social commentary in general. Though, you have reinforced my points better than I could've dreamed of or hoped for by bringing your righteous indignation to bear. Awesome.
9) My main problem with Heat/Vulcan is primarily the classes they are on at the moment. And giving Berserker some of the highest DPS'ing weapons in the game on the lightest, fastest chassis in the game is also beyond ridiculous. Light mechs get light weapons. Brawlers with Vulcans are annoying, but generally no match.
10) I didn't create a post about maturity while/before/after acting immature. Again, your interpretation of events is wildly hilarious. And so that we're all clear:
No human being alive is at their best or most mature if they're frustrated. That having been said, I take out my frustration on my games - and only on my games, as it should be - and not here in the forums.
11) If in anyway, anyone else here has misinterpreted my posts as AJK has, then you have my sincerest of apologies. I would also like to apologize for trying to exemplify proper manners (at least in the forums, if no where else), using the English language as well as my typing skills allow and anything else you've taken offense to. Mayhap, in the future, I'll just denigrate into the trollish behavior you're all so accustomed to reading from everyone else.
And yes, AJK is more than mortal in every mech he/she plays. Prior to this last trollish post of his/her, I enjoyed playing with him/her/whatever and was actually looking forward to doing a friendly frag video (seeing as how I've gotten more than a few kills against him/her, and he/she posted a thread encouraging such) and kind of hoped it would be a friendly back and forth. Which, in my experience, tends to generate good will amongst other players and gives all something to strive to and for. Since that's obviously not going to be the case, I'll have to decide on something else. As for the videos_ For now, at least, I think I'll just archive them. The troll has been fed enough; no need to fan the flames further.
And yes, I can be verbose. I'll take that as a compliment.
FYI: Anyone else here former USMC_ Any combat experience_ Training_ I've plenty of each. With real weapons. It's part of the reason I play games now; helps me sleep at nights. I see the faces less. And, it keeps me calmer during the days. For those of you that games are just games, believe me when I say: I envy you. Truly.
