I hate:
Biff - Weasilly little maggot.
Flo - Who in the F#*%! allowed a 48 year old elementary school librarian into the mercenary business?!
Bubba - I do not hate his personality(and he is not a racist BTW. Sir-tech never implemented that 'feature' did they? He does not hate anyone.) but he is a TERRIBLE buy, economically speaking. Right now in my current game Razor has far better stats everywhere except strength and maybe health and explosives(who cares?) and is near 60 wisdom so far and he costs me $185 a day! Bubba costs $600 a day right from the start, has okay Marksmanship, pedestrian dexterity and agility and abysmal wisdom(29!?). Barry starts out with 80+ - 90+ in most of the primary stats(including a 91 or 94 wisdom), has two skills(Bubba has just one:HtH) and is a better mechanic and explosives guy overall and he barely costs more than Bubba at level 5 with nearly '90' in most(if not all) his stats.
Biggins - I would love this guy but he is a worse buy than Bubba! Worse stats(better skills/traits though), especially poor strength(worse than Ira!), and he charges $1600 A DAY?!? Are you f*cking kidding me?!?
Raider - That freaking Magnum P.I. mustache of his...ARGH!
Meltdown - Love her stats and all but the butch chopper-dyke thing just creeps me out. I love lesbians...just not realistic ones.
Dynamo and Shank - Both are worthless(but priced right). Since I already have Barry & Magic or someone like that on my primary squad and will get Maddog on my second, I have no use for Dynamo and I could not find a use for Shank if everyone from A.I.M were killed in a fiery explosion and M.E.R.C. went belly up.

Hate the most? Hmmmm, I think I'll have to jump on the bandwagon and go with Ira. Now, I don't mind a Brooklyn accent, it can be funny, but her voice... ARGGH! The last straw was when she started bitching about Haywire or some other cool guy and sounding like an angsty teen all the time. Then her combat role went from "lookout" to "decoy." In another game I married her to the Cambria hillbillies.
At first I liked Miguel and Carlos too, but then they started moaning about Iggy. Iggy! You don't moan about Iggy on my watch, mr. Militia-trainer-and-errand-boy-for-life!
Then there are some boring ones like MD but none that I really hate. well, Hitman's habit of calling me Ace is kinda annoying but he's just such a swell guy otherwise that I can't help liking him.

For me hes just that French guy that can snipe.
Who the hell is Haywire? I remember some Punk from UB but i gues thats not him right? Or is Haywire a woman?
Oh, that guy. Well he and Gasket are the ones that at least look normal. But still i wouldnt hire them.

Quote:Why do you want to shoot locals?
For instance, I remember a situation where my mercs were inside a house, and a mob of redshirts outside. MD was the only guy with a grenade.
However, just like the X-COM series, the clueless civilians seem to have a knack for walking around the crossfire. I mean, bullets ricocheting, grenades exploding, and the idiots will just leave their shelters, then "check what's going on", and finally hide under the enemies feet. Brilliant.
With that said, it's no surprise that one of them decided to stay EXACTLY on the spot that I wanted MD to throw the grenade, and then, close the door. But regardless of the loss of loyalty, the situation was dire, and I decided that the civilian should get hurt or even die for the stupidity.
So I just shot some enemies with my other team members(badly wounded),SAVED, and when I was hoping for some relief, MD blatantly refused to throw the grenade!!! I had to throw somewhere else, it was not very effective...I survived in the end, but that annoyed me so much...
I remember a similar situation with Len and some dumb militia as well. He trained them btw...so that's kinda his fault!

wolf00hehe try keeping gasget in same team with ivan & igor & you se what is happen ...
Hm... I think I don't understand this.
Racists hate someone for the colour of the skin or religion.
Gasket is NOT racist, in fact he is in love with Vicki. How can he be a racist when he is in love with a black girl?
Hating someone because of a prejudice (like Gasket/Steriod the Russkies, or Blood the white south africans) is stupid, but not racism.

Shadow6, Norse: lol Bubba tops my hate-list as well. His stuttering is bad enough, but if Bubba isn't a child molester, I don't know a merc who is. The only reason to hire him is to rid the world of some filth by terminating him in the most creative way possible. I wish he'd sell-out to Dedrianna like Mike. Tixa would be just the place to find him.
Fabius_Hirrus: If you need a merc who will toss a frag grenade in the middle of a bunch of school children, Bubba's your man.
Ira's voice AND comments are really irritating - I DON'T WANT YOUR EAR, ALRIGHT! Just shut up and train those militia, and don't give me that "Let's do something already" crap.
Dimitri, for a guy who is supposed to be good at throwing things . . . well, lets just say I'd be happy if you could hit the broad side of that farmhouse with a frag grenade. Just once. What a putz.
Biff and Gumpy are bad, bad, but they sometimes amuse me in a 'loser' sort of way. Flo, on the other hand, has absolutely nothing going for her.
Even though he's a poor fighting merc, Gasket totally cracks me up, so I like having him around. I try to let him get some fighting action without getting him killed.
Razor totally rocks! (even though he has some personal issues). I try to like Haywire 'cause Razor does, but Haywire always, always lets me down. His incometence always ends up getting himself killed, and usually causes one or more team members to go down with him. I coddle him, give him good equipment, let him hang with Razor, but it just doesn't matter; with Haywire, it's not a matter of IF he's gonna buy the farm, it's a matter of WHEN, and how many others on the team is he going to take with him. I might try using him as a suicide bomber one of these days, at least then, I'll be able to choose the when and where, and minimize the risk to the rest of the team who are depending on him.
Stephen would be cool if he were a mute. "Grooving!"
Meltdown is totally unhirable for me because of her foul mouth. I'm glad the designers made a bunch of mercs that don't use profanity every other sentence; this may be war, but that doesn't mean we can't have some decorum 
And what's up with Reaper, anyway? "Mother of God" every time he spots a bad guy? It's not as bad as all that Reaper; I mean, I thought you were the "Reaper", man, Mr. Silent Death and all that, so just get over it, stop profaning Deity all the time, and shoot 'em, already, geez.

Sometimes I recruit everyone of those stupid ones at M.E.R.C and send them down to the Bloodcats Den. Then just let them run around untill slayed by those hungry pussycats. Bad for morale? at that moment I only have 1 guy, so its bye bye to the loosers, now Gasget is cool, Bubba an as#, Biff an as#, Gumpy... na..., Larry... oh god man... naaa..., Haywire an as#, Razor rocks, Flo as mentioned earlier a perfect bride, the rest speaks for them selves, mostly keepers, but then sometimes I get them all killed just to piss of Spike
