Roll Call

[Rock-n-Roll]

Let's get the ball rolling on this and see who all we have planning to play MWO

[Rock-n-Roll]

Forum Name: Rock-n-Roll
MWO Callsign: Rock-n-Roll
MW Experience that might be useful: Played MW2-4 plus all expansions, MPBT, participated in campaign leagues for MW3 and MW4, was XO of the Promethean Legacy mercenary unit in said leagues.

Anything else we should know for now?

[Stracius]

I'm hoping that the forum name and the game callsign are going to be the same thing, otherwise it defeats the purpose of signing up to reserve your player name. That being said:

Stracius
Experience in only MW3 and 4 with light multiplayer use.

[NF]

Forum name: NF
MWO name: NightFury

Experience: what Rock said except the XO bit :-)

[BlueFlames]

MWO Callsign - BlueFlames

Experience - Played loads of MechWarrior 3 and 4 in singleplayer. I was part of the SSC MW4 division, while that division was at its height, and was still playing multiplayer with them as it dropped into decline. After that division tanked, I stopped playing multiplayer MW4, but continued playing singleplayer, once in a while.

Amusing anecdote - Back when the SSC MW4 division was involved in league play, we got lined up against the top-ranked unit in the league for a 3v3. Bear in mind, we were ranked somewhere around 48th out of 51 units in the league. The way the match was set up, our opponents got to choose the map, and they went with one of the heatless, lunar surface maps. In the team chat, during loadout selection, I said two words: "Take ballistics." If I'm remembering everything correctly, esd took a Daishi loaded to the gills with Gauss rifles, while Overlord and myself took Madcats, each sporting dual LBX10's and some other miscellaneous armaments. Our opponents expected laser boats. Reflective armor, under LBX and Gauss fire, produces a very satisfying crunch, as it shatters.

[Chimera]

Forum: Chimera
MWO name: Chymera (sigh)

Experience: Played Mechwarrior 2 Mercenaries back in the 90s, then took a break until Mechwarrior 4 came out. Played with some old Freespace friends, and then with the SSC in the division and in the leagues we played in. Also played a lot of Mechcommander 1 and 2, as well as Heavy Gear 1 and 2.

[Wolfman]

MWO callsign: PL Wolfman

My MW experience: I played MW2, MW3, and MW4 quite a bit. I was in the Promethean Legacy with NF and Rock.

<edited by Rock> Since he's being modest, I'll come out and say Wolfman was our ringer. One of, if not the best, pilots in the leagues we participated in.

[Messiah]

MWO callsign: Sloth Beast (Messiah is always taken)

Played MW2-4. I can hit the broad side of a barn, sometimes.

My PC did not survive the move to CA. Not sure if it is a total loss, but the repair/replace budget will be very tight for the rest of the year. If I can get a decent rig running, I will be playing.

[Wolfman]

Haha, thanks for the compliment, Rock. I wasn't that good, whenever you go against CJF anyone would look good.

Mess, I hope you can get your computer up and running, it wouldn't be the same without you.

I'm going to be pretty busy when it first comes out, but I'll have a couple of months of a break until I get busy again.

[SSX-Killjoy]

Forum/Player name: SSXKilljoy

I just hope to have time to play.

[esd]

If I'm remembering everything correctly, esd took a Daishi loaded to the gills with Gauss rifles
