Patience is the biggest virtue you can have in MechWarrior Online. The goal is to make targeting your Mech harder so you have time to cool your Mech or hope they lose interest in you.ĥ. If you’re Mech is heavily damaged or surrounded, try to get away by fleeing towards teammates or by running into heavily covered area. Just asking “Plan?” or something similar will usually be greeted with silence while saying “Let’s hang back and defend” or “Line rush E line” tends to elicit more of a response.Ĥ. Instead of asking if there is a plan at the top of the match sometimes it is best to state your idea for a plan and see if people want to join or not. Make sure your team has at least one or two Mechs hanging back near the base to defend in case your opponent tries to sneak a scout Mech past your team.ģ. A lot of people forget the second criteria and leave their base undefended. There are two ways to win the match – kill everyone on the opposing team or capture their base. This will help you plan your strategy, especially if most of your team is dominated by one class of Mechs.Ģ.
The matchmaking system usually creates teams based on Mech size/category so your team composition will be very similar to your opposition. At the start of each match, hit the "Q" key and look around at your team. Below are my set of tricks which have been looked over by Paul Inouye, the lead designer of the game.ġ. There are plenty of other tips guides including the official MWO website and this excellent post from the folks at the Penny Arcade Report.
Some of these are obvious, some of them are not, but they should serve as a decent set of ideas for those who are just now getting into the beta or have been playing it for a while.
The beta has had a few rough spots but now that it’s in open beta and I can talk about it, I thought I would share some of my hard lessons learned from playing the game. So back in August I put down $60 on the mid-tier Founder’s package and have been enraptured with the game since. The world hasn’t had a MechWarrior game in over a decade and there was no way I wasn’t going to get in on the action. announced their founders packages for MechWarrior Online earlier this year, it was a matter of “when” and not “if” I would join in.
