I've been toying around with MCRUs again lately since they added WP to them and I've been amazed how adverse players seem to be towards either fielding or spawning in them. I've been toying with builds and think I've decided on Myrons for paratroopers and Methanas for quick land CRUs. Still trying to figure out the best configuration whether Madrugar or Gunnlogi for armored MCRUs although I'm leaning towards having both a mid range Gunnlogi with missiles or rail and a blaster Madrugar.

The paradropping lets you literally fly to all objectives on a map circling high in the sky to avoid most all AV and allows players to pick where they roughly want to land and yet I still don't get that many passengers. Not too mention you could load an entire squad into one and all drop on the same objective. It can't be any less safe then uplinks or CRUs given the amount of cloaking scouts these days so what gives?

I'm not a true tanker lol (Bare minimum invested into vehicles to get standard levels) so I don't mind losing a high slot as I can reallocate the PG/CPU to a low slot (I only use basic/militia slots.) I probably will have one front blaster on my gunnlogi rail and one front rail on my blaster maddie but I probably won't have any guns on the missile tank. The MCRU on tanks is mostly useful for maps where I shift my tanks slightly diagonal and approach the domination objective for maximum cover to nearby infantry. I generally have been experimenting with a high orbit dropship and MCRU tank when in a domination map and a low orbit dropship that circles all objectives or a LAV that follows the skirmish battle line.

This game needs more moments like that in general. I used to think not having pub stompers around so much as so many quit would be a good thing but now... I don't understand what battle academy these blueberries went too but I shudder to think what's going on there. You must get huge points for not blowing yourself up with your own grenade in the battle academy these days... It's just painful how many matches I just get utterly screwed in because I do the typical thing of advancing to the objective/s and then suddenly realize my entire team is still in our red line. That's about 2 out of 3 games now. Not even getting proto stomped just getting owned by 16 MLT/STD suits all around me while my team picks its nose wandering around the map everywhere but the objective/s. I understand some are afk but a lot of them are just wondering around the map shooting at reds in the most pointless places.
